"These, hearing nothing of the Collector-Sahib for some time, and heartily despising the Hindu Sub-Judge,
arranged to start a little Mohurrum riot of their own. But the Hindus turned out and broke their heads;
when, finding lawlessness pleasant, Hindus and Mahomedans together raised an aimless sort of Donnybrook
just to see how far they could go. They looted each other's shops, and paid off private grudges in the regular way.
It was a nasty little riot, but not worth putting in the newspapers."
This might seem to be somewhat outdated, doesn't it?
