§ IV 4. 20-23 ]
M p 44 l. 31-p 45 l 12 ] - PARTITION - 95
*( reference to ) the number of the sharers ¹ Kātyāyana says .
If an undivided younger brother dies, he ( the elder ) should make the
the son of the former a partaker of the riktha ( ancestral wealth ), when
he has not obtained livelihood ( share of the heritage ) from his paternal
grandfather. But he should obtain from his paternal uncle or from the
paternal uncle's son the share of his father ( i e the share that would
have been his deceased father's if alive ) That very share ( i e a similar
or equal share ) would be according to law the share of all the brothers
Or even his son would receive a share, beyond that² ( i e the great-
grand-son ) there is cessation ( of the right to share in ancestral wealth )
The word anuja ( younger brother ) is illustrative and includes even
the elder brother. Paratah ( beyond ) means ' ( beyond ) the great-grand-
son.' The son and the like of the great-grandson do not obtain the wealth
( of the great-great-grand-father ) when the father, the grand-father and the
great-grand father die ( first )
