That evening I had fever and discharge\[1596\] which led on to cough and every time I coughed, I spat blood. Anxiety was great but, by God's mercy, it passed off in two or three days. (\_Dec. 11th\_) It rained when we left Bīgrām; we dismounted on the Kābul-water. (\_e. News from Lāhor.\_) News came that Daulat Khān\[1597\] and (Apāq) Ghāzī Khān, having collected an army of from 20 to 30,000, had taken Kilānūr, and intended to move on Lāhor. At once Mumin-i-\`alī the commissary was sent galloping off to say, "We are advancing march by march;\[1598\] do not fight till we arrive." (\_Dec. 14th\_) With two night-halts on the way, we reached the water of Sind (Indus), and there dismounted on Thursday the 28th (of Ṣafar). - [Previous: 932.1.6](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.babur.baburnama~en-beveridge.932.1.6) - [Next: 932.2.1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.babur.baburnama~en-beveridge.932.2.1) - [Up: 932.1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.babur.baburnama~en-beveridge.932.1) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.babur.baburnama~en-beveridge.932.1.7](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.babur.baburnama~en-beveridge.932.1.7) · Pramāṇa
