ආගමික නිවාඩු දිනයක් - A Religious Holiday.

    There is a considerable Sikh colony in the neighbourhood of Domel, and as one of the most important Sikh religious festivals commences on April 12th, all the people of that faith—men, women, and children—were gathered here from far and wide, clad in their festival raiment. They bathed in the sacred Jhelam, feasted or fasted according to the law, and made merry. It was interesting to see these cheery, simple, fine people enjoying their holiday.
