Even Hadji-ahmed, elder brother to Aaly-verdy-qhan, and father to three sons who had married the Viceroy's three daughters, and enjoyed the highest honours and dignities of the State — Hadji-ahmed took umbrage at the General's boundless influence. Finding himself eclipsed by his personal character, and overborne by his weight, he rather than endure it any more, resolved to live deprived of his brother's society, to exile himself from his home, and to leave a city to which he was accustomed so early as the times of Shudjah-qhan. He abandoned his own habitation, and went far off to live with his younger son, Zin-eddin-ahmed-qhan, Governor of Azim-abad. The subject of discontent proved to be the Government of H0ogly, which the Hadji wanted for himself, and which Aaly-verdy-qhan bestowed on the Hadji's second son, Sayed-ahmed-qhan, who after the loss of his Government of Oressa, lived at Court like a private man, almost without income, as well as without office. Aaly-verdy-qhan thought the Hadji, his brother, sufficiently provided for, by the Sair of M0ursh0ud-abad, that is all the duties, customs and receipts, different from the Land Tax. The old man unable to brook such a refusal, asked and obtained leave to go for his health to Azim-abad. It was about the year 1157. About the same time, (the rainy season being already over), the Marhattas made their appearance again.
