His Majesty, from the regard which he pays to difference in rank, believes many fit for cavalry service, though he would not trust them with the keeping of a horse. For these he has told off separate stables, with particular Dároghahs and Mushrifs. When their services are required, they are furnished with a horse on a written order of the Bitikchí (writer); but they have not to trouble themselves about the keeping of the horse. A man so mounted is called a Bárgírsuwár.
