1.

The suit is one brought to recover money alleged to have been illegally levied by Government on account of fees said to be due to the karnam of

the village. The fees were levied under Madras Act II of 1864, and the plaintiff who is aggrieved by the action taken under that Act is required by

Section 59 to bring his suit within six months of the date when the cause of action arose. The present suit is admittedly not brought within that time

and is therefore barred and it is unnecessary to go into the merits.

We dismiss the second appeal with costs.
