(\_Dec. 23rd\_) Advancing march by march, we dismounted at the Kanār-passage\[2183\] on Monday the 28th. (\_Dec. 26th\_) On Thursday the 2nd of the latter Rabī\` I crossed the river; there was 4 or 5 days delay on one bank or the other before the army got across. On those days we went more than \[Sidenote: Fol. 332.\] once on board a boat and ate \_ma'jūn\_. The junction of the river Chaṃbal is between one and two \_kurohs\_ (2-4 m.) above the Kanār-passage; on Friday I went into a boat on the Chaṃbal, passed the junction and so to camp. (\_g. Troops sent against Shaikh Bāyazīd Farmūlī.\_) Though there had been no clear proof of Shaikh Bāyazīd's hostility, yet his misconduct and action made it certain that he had hostile intentions. On account of this Muḥammad \`Alī \_Jang-jang\_ was detached from the army and sent to bring together from Qanūj Muḥammad Sl. Mīrzā and the sulṯāns and amīrs of that neighbourhood, such as Qāsim-i-ḥusain Sulṯān, Bī-khūb (or, Nī-khūb) Sulṯān, Malik Qāsim, Kūkī, Abū'l-muḥammad the lancer, and Minūchihr Khān with his elder and younger brethren and Daryā-khānīs, so that they might move against the hostile Afghāns. They were to invite Shaikh Bāyazīd to go with them; if he came frankly, they were to take him along; if not, were to drive him off. Muḥammad \`Alī asking for a few elephants, ten were given him. After he had leave to set off, Bābā Chuhra (the Brave) was sent to and ordered to join him. (\_h. Incidents of the journey to Chandīrī.\_)
