29.8.8
On the 1st of the Ilahi month of Isfandarmuz I pitched in the pargana of Umbala. Lashkari, s. Imam-wirdi, who had run away from Bi-daulat, and joined the service of my auspicious son Shah Parwiz, having come on this date to Court, kissed the threshold. A report came from my son and Mahabat K. It contained the recommendation and the offer of service of ‘Adil K., with a letter which he had sent to Mahabat, in which were set forth his submissiveness and loyalty. Lashkari was sent back to Parwiz with a dress of honour, a nadiri with pearl buttons for the prince, and a dress of honour for Khan ‘Alam and Mahabat K. At the request of my son I wrote a gracious farman to ‘Adil K. showing great favour to him, and sent him a robe of honour with a special nadiri. I gave an order that if they thought fit they should send the above-mentioned to ‘Adil K.
