Sl. Muḥammad _Dūldāī_ who had abandoned Qanūj and come [Sidenote: Fol. 329.] to me, would not agree to go there again, whether from fear or for his reputation's sake; he therefore exchanged the 30 _laks_ of Qanūj for the 15 of Sihrind, and Qanūj was bestowed with an allowance of 30 _laks_ on Muḥammad Sl. Mīrzā. Badāūn[2153] was given to Qāsim-i-ḥusain Sulṯān and he was sent against Bīban who had laid siege to Luknūr[2154] during the disturbance with Rānā Sangā, together with Muḥammad Sl. Mīrzā, and, of Turk amīrs, Bābā Qashqa's Malik Qāsim with his elder and younger brethren and his Mughūls, and Abū'l-muḥammad the lance-player, and Mu'yad with his father's Daryā-khānīs and those of Ḥusain Khān _Daryā-khānī_ and the retainers of Sl. Muḥammad _Dūldāī_, and again, of amīrs of Hind, `Alī Khān _Farmūlī_ and Malik Dād _Kararānī_ and Shaikh Muḥammad of Shaikh _Bhakhārī_(?) and Tātār Khān Khān-i-jahān. At the time this army was crossing the Gang-river (Ganges), Bīban, hearing about it, fled, abandoning his baggage. Our army followed him to Khairābād,[2155] stayed there a few days and then turned back. (_n. Appointments and dispersion for the Rains._)
