The Book of Akbar 4: Prince Kamran gets possession of Lahore. (See Vol. V. p. 189.)

4

[Text, vol. i. p. 153.] When Prince Kamran heard of the death of the Emperor Babar, he left Kandahar in charge of Mirza ’Askari, and set off for Hindustan, to see how he might advance his own interests. At that time Mir Yunas ’Ali, who had been appointed by the late Emperor, was governor of Lahore. Mirza Kamran revolved in his mind a scheme for getting hold of Lahore. One night he falsely pretended to have a difference with Karacha Beg, and spoke harshly to him, so that Karacha Beg left the camp of the Mirza with his soldiers, and went off to Lahore. Mir Yunas ’Ali was glad of his coming, and showed him much attention ; frequently inviting him to his house, and enjoying his society. Karacha Beg watched his opportunity, and one night when they were drinking wine, and the Mir's soldiers were gone to their homes, Karacha Beg seized him, put him in confinement, and placed his own men in charge of the gates of the fortress. He then sent a messenger to call Mirza Kamran, who was expecting such a summons, and starting off with expedition, gained possession of Lahore. He took Mir Yunas out of prison, and offered to make over the government of Lahore to him ; but the Mir declined to accept it, and went to the Emperor Humayun.
Mirza Kamran appointed his own officers over the parganas of the Panjab, as far as the Satlej or river of Ludhiyana. He sent envoys to the Emperor, assuring him of his good intentions, and asking to be confirmed in the government. Humayun, in his kindness, consented, and recognized him as governor of Kabul, Kandahar, and the Panjab. * * * In the year 933 Mirza Kamran removed Mirza ’Askari from the government of Kandahar, and gave it to Khwaja Kalan Beg, being annoyed with ’Askari in consequence of his having been worsted in a fight with the Hazaras while on his way to Kabul.
