This file contains 14 documents related to contracts and disputes between individuals and local drama companies (include children's contracts, receipts for advance payment, and complaints made by both sides: the companies and the parents). Parents would send their child off to work for a drama company, for a period of two or three years. A contract was drawn up between the parents and the company fixing the advance paid to the parents and the time period the child should work. These disputes were settled by the document holder's great-grandfather as village panchayat president.
12 handwritten paper documents. Legal size paper (height 35.56 cm/width 21.59 cm) and other formats.
