935.10.5

When we turned back from Munīr, I ordered that some-one [Sidenote: Fol. 370.] should count a horse's steps between the Son-bank and the camp. They amounted to 23,100, which is 46,200 paces, which is 11-1/2 _kurohs_ (23m.).[2589] It is about half a _kuroh_ from Munīr to the Son; the return journey from Munīr to the camp was therefore 12 _kurohs_ (24m.). In addition to this were some 15-16 _kurohs_ done in visiting this and that place; so that the whole excursion was one of some 30 _kurohs_ (60m.). Six _garīs_ of the 1st night-watch had passed [8.15 p.m.] when we reached the camp. (_April 28th_) At the dawn of Thursday (_Sha`bān 19th_) Sl. Junaid _Barlās_ came in with the Jūnpūr braves from Jūnpūr. I let him know my blame and displeasure on account of his delay; I did not see him. Qāẓī Jīā I sent for and saw. (_aaa.
