Having pursued the enemy to some distance, and supposing that Ibrahim had escaped from the battle, I appointed Kismai Mirza, \* \* \* with a party of my immediate adherents, to follow him in close pursuit down as far as Agra. Having passed through the middle of Ibrahim's camp, and visited his pavilions and accommodations, we encamped on the banks of the Siyah-ab (Kdlini). It was now afternoon prayers when Tahir Tabari, the younger brother of Khalifa, having found Ibrahim lying dead amidst a number of slain, cut off his head, and brought it in. That very day I directed Humayun Mirza \* \* \* to set out without baggage or encumbrances, and proceed with all possible expedition to occupy Agra, and take possession of the treasuries. I at the same time ordered Mahdi Khwaja and \* \* \* to leave their baggage, to push on by forced marches, to enter the fort of Dehli, and seize the treasuries. - [Previous: 2.4.3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.babur.baburnama~en-elliot.2.4.3) - [Next: 2.4.5](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.babur.baburnama~en-elliot.2.4.5) - [Up: 2.4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.babur.baburnama~en-elliot.2.4) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.babur.baburnama~en-elliot.2.4.4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.mughal.babur.baburnama~en-elliot.2.4.4) · Pramāṇa
