David,

I'm afraid I've come in here rather late in the day, so I won't overdo
the info in case it's not quite what you're looking for...

I have a copy of Murray's Handbook (India/Burma/Ceylon), 1924 which gives
some information on Mt Abu:-

'(3800ft above the sea) is the headquarters of the Rajputana
administration, and the residence of vakils, or agents, from a large
number of Indian States. It is also a sanatorium for European troops and
a hot-weather resort in the summer season....'

There is more which I'm happy to mail to you if it would be useful. I
take it you realise that Mau is an alternative spelling for Mhow by the
way.

All very confusing! Hope this helps a bit.

Jill
