Note 184 — LAW AND JUDICATURE.

The Commentator refers, in explanation of this sloka, to Manu, ch. 9, sl. 216, viz. A son born after a division shall alone inherit the patrimony [i. e. the share allotted to the parents (M.)], or shall have a share of it with the divided brethren, if they return and unite themselves with him.—With respect to the deduction for expenditure, &c., the Commentator explains, that the accumulations of mere income are not to be included in the estate to be repartitioned, and that a previous deduction is to be made for necessary expenditure, e.g. the father's debts.
