News of the loss of Bihār reaches Dhūlpūr.\_) (\_Jan. 9th\_) On the eve of Sunday the 28th of the month (\_Rabi\` II.\_) we crossed the Jūn (Jumna) at the 6th \_garī\_ of the 3rd watch (2.15 a.m.) and started for the Lotus-garden of Dūlpūr. The 3rd watch was near\[2428\] (Sunday mid-day) when we reached it. Places were assigned on the border of the garden, where begs and the household might build or make camping-grounds for themselves. (\_Jan. 13th\_) On Thursday the 3rd of the first Jumāda, a place was fixed in the s.e. of the garden for a Hot-bath; the ground was to be levelled; I ordered a plinth(?) (\_kursī\_) erected on the levelled ground, and a Bath to be arranged, in one room of which was to be a reservoir 10 X 10. On this same day Khalīfa sent from Āgra dutiful letters of Qāẓī Jīā and Bīr-sing Deo, saying it had been heard said that Iskandar's son Maḥmūd (\_Lūdī\_) had taken Bihār (town). This news decided for getting the army to horse. (\_Jan. 14th\_) On Friday (\_Jumāda I. 4th\_), we rode out from the Lotus-garden at the 6th \_garī\_ (8.15 a.m.); at the Evening Prayer we reached Āgra. We met Muḥammad-i-zamān Mīrzā on the road who would have gone to Dūlpūr, Chīn-tīmūr also who must have been coming into Agra.\[2429\] (\_Jan. 15th\_) On Saturday (\_5th\_) the counselling begs having been summoned, it was settled to ride eastwards on Thursday the 10th of the month (\_Jan. 21st\_).
