15.3.7

Ruz-afzun, who was one of the princes of the Subah of Behar, and who had been from his youth one of the permanent servants of the Court, having been honoured by admission into Islam, was made Raja of the province of his father, Raja Sangram. Though the latter had been killed in opposing the leaders of the State, I gave him an elephant and leave to go to his native place. An elephant was presented to Jahangir Quli Khan. On the 24th, Jagat Singh, son of Kunwar Karan, who was in his 12th year, came and waited on me, and presented petitions from his grandfather, the Rana Amar Singh, and from his father. The signs of nobility and high birth were evident on his face. I pleased him with a dress of honour and kindness. To the mansab of Mirza 'Isa Tarkhan an addition of 200 personal was made, so that it attained to 1,200 personal and 300 horse. In the end of the month, having honoured Shaikh Husain Rohila with the title of Mubariz Khan, I dismissed him to his jagir. Ten thousand darabs (5,000 rupees) were given to the relations of Mirza Sharafu-d-din Husain Kashghari, who at this time had come and had the honour of kissing the threshold. On the 5th Amurdad, to the mansab of Raja Nathmal, which was 1,500 personal and 1,100 horse, an addition of 500 personal and 100 horse was made. On the 7th, Kesho (Das) Maru, who had a jagir in the Sarkar of Orissa, and who had been sent for to Court on account of a complaint against the governor of the Subah of that place, came and paid his respects.
