(_May 29th_) That nothing falling to be done before my arrival might be neglected, leave to join Bāqī was given on Sunday (_21st_) to Sl. Junaid _Barlās_, Khalīfa's (son) Ḥasan, Mullā Apāq's [Sidenote: Fol. 377.] retainers, and the elder and younger brethren of Mumin Ātāka. Today at the Other Prayer a special dress of honour and a _tīpūchāq_ horse were bestowed on Shāh Muḥammad (son) of Ma`rūf _Farmūlī_, and leave to go was given. As had been done last year (934 AH.), an allowance from Sāran and Kūndla[2649] was bestowed on him for the maintenance of quiver-wearers. Today too an allowance of 72 _laks_[2650] from Sarwār and a _tīpūchāq_ horse were bestowed on Ismā`īl _Jalwānī_, and his leave was given. About the boats Gunjāīsh and Arāīsh it was settled with Bengalīs that they should take them to Ghāzīpūr by way of Tīr-mūhānī.[2651] The boats Asāīsh and Farmāīsh were ordered taken up the Sarū with the camp. (_May 30th_) On Monday (_Ramẓān 22nd_) we marched from the Chaupāra-Chaturmūk passage along the Sarū, with mind at ease about Bihār and Sarwār,[2652] and after doing as much as 10 _kurohs_ [Sidenote: Fol. 377b.] (20m.) dismounted on the Sarū in a village called Kilirah (?) dependent on Fatḥpūr.[2653] (_kkk. A surmised survival of the record of 934. A.H._[2654])
