The officers of the Court were suspicious of evil designs on the part of the Habshis (Abyssinians), and brought the matter to the notice of His Majesty, and although he desired to act generously and royally towards them, as a precaution he committed them to the charge of some of his attendants. The Emperor then marched on, and on Friday, 14th Rajab, pitched his camp on the banks of the river of Ahmadabad. The khutba was read in the name of the Emperor, and all the people of the city and environs came to offer congratulations and thanksgivings. On the 20th Rajab, Saiyid Mahmud Khan Barha and Shaikh Muhammad Bukhari brought their wives into the royal camp. On the same day Jalal Khan, who had been sent on an embassy to the Rana, returned.
