I went by boat. We stayed here 3 or 4 \[Sidenote: Fol. 363.\] days because of hospitality offered by Sl. Jalālu'd-dīn. (\_March 4th\_) On Friday (\_23rd\_), I dismounted at Sl. Jalālu'd-dīn's house inside Karrah-fort where, host-like, he served me a portion of cooked meat and other viands.\[2510\] After the meal, he and his sons were dressed in unlined coats (\_yaktāī jāmah\_) and short tunics (\_nīmcha\_).\[2511\] At his request his elder son was given the style Sl. Maḥmūd.\[2512\] On leaving Karrah, I rode about one \_kuroh\_ (2m.) and dismounted on the bank of Gang. Here letters were written and leave was given to Shahrak Beg who had come from Māhīm to our first camp on Gang (\_i.e.\_ Dugdugī).
