# The Memoirs of Bābur 936.3.1

The Bābur-nāma in English (A. S. Beveridge) 936.3.1

- **Language:** English

### [936.3.1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.babur.baburnama~en-beveridge.936.3.1)

As after being in Sihrind, Bābur is said to have spent two months hunting near Dihlī, it may be that he followed up the punitive expedition sent into the Kaithal \_pargana\_ of the Karnāl District, by hunting in Nardak, a favourite ground of the Tīmūrids, which lies in that district. Thus the gap of 936 AH. with also perhaps a month of 937 AH. is filled by the "year's" travel west of Dihlī. The record is a mere outline and in it are periods of months without mention of where Bābur was or what affairs of government were brought before him. At some time, on his return journey presumably, he will have despatched to Kashmīr the expedition referred to in the opening section of this appendix. Something further may yet be gleaned from local chronicles, from unwritten tradition, or from the witness of place-names commemorating his visit. \_e. Bābur's self-surrender to save Humāyūn.\_ The few months, perhaps 4 to 5, between Bābur's return to Āgra from his expedition towards the North-west, and the time of his death are filled by Gul-badan and Abū'l-faẓl with matters concerning family interests only.
