On the 17th, having appointed Mu'izzu-l-mulk bakhshi of the army against the Rana, I dismissed him to it. As news had come of the rebellion of Ray Ray Singh and his son, Dalip, in the neighbourhood of Nagor, I ordered Raja Jagannath to proceed against them with others of the servants of the State and Mu'izzu-l-mulk, and to put a stop to this disturbance. I gave 50,000 rupees to Sardar Khan, who had been appointed to the place of Shah Beg Khan as Governor of Qandahar, and I promoted him to the rank of 3,000 personal and 2,500 horse. To Khizr Khan, the late ruler of Khandesh, were given 3,000 rupees, and to his brother, Ahmad Khan, who is one of the khanazadas of the State. Hashim Khan, son of Qasim Khan, who is one of the house-born of the State, and worthy of advancement, I promoted to the rank of 2,500 personal and 1,500 horse. I gave him also one of my own horses. I sent robes of honour to eight individuals amongst the nobles of the army of the Deccan. Five thousand rupees were given to Nizam of Shiraz, the story-teller. Three thousand rupees were given for the expenses of the bulghār-khāna of Kashmir to the wakil of Mirza 'Ali Beg, the governor of that place, to send to Srinagar. I presented a jewelled dagger of the value of 6,000 rupees to Qutbu-d-din Khan.
