(They were, thus, in every way, free from trouble and violence.) Muhammad Kasim (also) gave every one of them a proper appointment. As he was quite sure, now, that no harm or mischief would result from them, he conferred on every one of them the same post which he had held in the reign of Rái Chach. He then called a conference of all the Brahmins in the town, and addressed them as follows:— "In the reign of Dahar, you held responsible posts, and you must be knowing all the people of the city as well as of the country all around. You must inform us which of them are noteworthy and celebrated and deserve kindness and patronage at our hands; so that we may show proper favour to them, and make grants to them. As I have come to entertain a good opinion of you, and have full trust in your faithfulness and sincerety, I confirm you in your previous posts. The management of all the affairs of State, and its administration, I leave in your able hands, and this (right) I grant (also) to your children and descendants hereditarily, and you need fear no alteration or cancellation of the order thus issued."
