932.15.7

To Quṯb Khān in Etāwa royal letters of promise and threat had been sent several times, but as he neither came and saw me, nor abandoned Etāwa and got away, it was given to Mahdī Khwāja and he was sent against it with a strong reinforcement of begs and household troops under the command of Muḥammad Sl. Mīrzā, Sl. Muḥammad _Dūldāī_, Muḥammad `Alī _Jang-jang_ and `Abdu'l-`azīz the Master of the Horse. Qanūj was given to Sl. Muḥammad _Dūldāī_; he was also (as mentioned) appointed against Etāwa; so too were Fīrūz Khān, Maḥmūd Khān, Shaikh Bāyazīd and Qāẓī Jīā, highly favoured commanders to whom Eastern _parganas_ had been given. [Sidenote: Fol. 299.] Muḥammad _Zaitūn_, who was seated in Dūlpūr, deceived us and did not come. We gave Dūlpūr to Sl. Junaid _Barlās_ and reinforced him by appointing `Ādil Sulṯān, Muḥammadī Kūkūldāsh, Shāh Manṣūr _Barlās_, Qūtlūq-qadam, Treasurer Walī, Jān Beg, `Abdu'l-lāh, Pīr-qulī, and Shāh Ḥasan _Yāragī_ (or _Bāragī_), who were to attack Dūlpūr, take it, make it over to Sl. Junaid _Barlās_ and advance on Bīāna.
