and being soon after joined by Nizam-ool-Moolk and Mullik Mahomed Khizr with the guards, the traitors made their escape, with the exception of one, who being unable to go down the ladder, threw himself off the musjid, and broke his leg. He was, in consequence, taken the next morning. This person discovered the names of all the conspirators, who being seized were punished. But Azim Hoomayoon, the King’s father, interceded in behalf of the following persons, who were pardoned, and estates allotted to them: — The Prince Ahmud Ghoory, son of Sooltan Hooshung, received the estate of Islamabad. Mullik Yoosoof, entitled Kowam Khan, had Bhilsa. Mullik Itihad, Hooshungabad; and Mullik Nuseer-ood-Deen, entitled Noosrut Khan, Chundery. The Prince Ahmud, taking advantage of his situation, very soon collected a force at Islamabad; and Azim Hoomayoon proposed that remonstrances should be made to him in the first instance; which proving of no avail, the King ordered Taj Khan to proceed with a force to reduce him. On reaching Islamabad, Taj Khan found himself unable to make any impression on the fort, and wrote to court for reinforcements. This delay gave courage to other malecontents; and information was received that Mullik Itihad of Hooshungabad, and Nuseer Khan of Chundery, had both raised the standard of revolt. The King now directed his father to march in person against all the insurgents.
