In amongst the mountains of Nīl-āb and Bhīra which connect with those of Kashmīr, there are, besides the Jūd and Janjūha tribes, many Jats, Gujūrs, and others akin to them, seated in villages everywhere on every rising-ground. These are governed by headmen of the Kakar tribes, a headship like that over the Jūd and Janjūha. At this time (925 AH.) the headmen of the people of those hill-skirts were Tātār \_Kakar\_ and Hātī \_Kakar\_, two descendants of one forefather; being paternal-uncles' sons.\[1420\] Torrent-beds and ravines are their strongholds. Tātār's place, named Parhāla,\[1421\] is a good deal below the snow-mountains; Hātī's country connects with the mountains and also he had made Bābū Khān's fief Kālanjar,\[1422\] look towards himself. Tātār \[Sidenote: Fol. 228b.\] \_Kakar\_ had seen Daulat Khān (\_Yūsuf-khail\_) and looked to him with complete obedience. Hātī had not seen Daulat Khān; his attitude towards him was bad and turbulent. At the word of the Hindūstān begs and in agreement with them, Tātār had so posted himself as to blockade Hātī from a distance. Just when we were in Bhīra, Hātī moved on pretext of hunting, fell unexpectedly on Tātār, killed him, and took his country, his wives and his having (\_būlghāni\_).\[1423\]
