When, as has been mentioned, we abandoned the plan (against Rānā Sangā), we moved to subdue Mīwāt. Having made 4 night-halts on the way, we dismounted on the bank of the Mānas-nī\[2129\] 6 \_kurohs\_ (12 m.) from Alūr, the present seat of government in Mīwāt. Ḥasan Khān and his forefathers must have had their seat\[2130\] in Tijāra, but when I turned towards Hindūstan, beat Pahār (or Bihār) Khān and took Lāhor and Dībālpūr (930 AH.-1524 AD.), he bethought himself betimes and busied himself for a residence (\_\`imārat\_) in Fort Alūr (Alwar). His trusted man, Karm-chand by name, who had come from him to me in Āgra when his son (Nāhar \_i.e.\_ Tiger) was with me there,\[2131\] came now from that son's presence in Alūr and asked \[Sidenote: Fol. 326b.\] for peace. \`Abdu'r-raḥīm \_shaghāwal\_ went with him to Alūr, conveying letters of royal favour, and returned bringing Nāhar Khān who was restored to favour and received \_parganas\_ worth several \_laks\_ for his support. (\_g. Rewards to officers.\_) Thinking, "What good work Khusrau did in the battle!" I named him for Alūr and gave him 50 \_laks\_ for his support, but unluckily for himself, he put on airs and did not accept this. Later on it \[\_khẉud\_, itself\] came to be known that Chīn-tīmūr must have done\[2132\] that work; guerdon was made him for his renown(?);\[2133\] Tijāra-town, the seat of government in Mīwāt, was bestowed on him together with an allowance of 50 \_laks\_ for his support.
