10th, Baba Dost Bakhshi. He also was distinguished for his knowledge of accounts and always displayed great aptitude in the affairs of the diwani. 11th, Darvesh Maqsud Bangali. He came from the Ziyaratgah of Herat and was a man of integrity. He was left behind with Jahangir Quli Beg in Bengal and was the only one who escaped. His Majesty Jahanbani Jannat-ashiyani was especially gracious to him, and afterwards his Majesty the king of kings showed him great favour. He spent a long life in the ranks of offerers up of prayers (for Akbar). 12th, Hasan 'Ali Ishak Aqa. He was distinguished for courage and activity. He had done good service, but one Ya'qub by name who was a favourite of his Majesty Jahanbani having used improper language, some evil-disposed Qizilbashis (Persians) laid an ambush for the young man in a deserted village near Tabriz and assassinated him. As there was a coolness between him and Hasan 'Ali it was reported that the latter had instigated the murder. On this account he could not accompany the sublime army but remained in Persia. When Kabul became the royal residence he was allowed to kiss the threshold. 13th, 'Ali Dost Barbegi, son of the aforesaid Hasan 'Ali. He came afterwards and joined in Holy Mashhad. From first to last he was distinguished in Herat (?) for service and devotion. 14th, Ibrahim Ishak Aqa. He was a devoted servant of the Court.
