18.10.1
Mohon-lal employed the few days he remained at Pooraniah in assembling and sending to Moorshood-abad the treasures and effects of Sayd-ahmed-qhan, as well as his women, and children, which latter were kinsmen and relations of Seradj-ed-doulah's. To these he added Sipahdar-djung, son to Seif-qhan, who was also sent with the utmost regard and honour to Moorshood-abad. This nobleman had espoused one of Sayd-ahmed-qhan's daughters, a Princess that died when her father was engaged in the expedition against Mahmed-djelil, the Zeminder of Cagra. Mohon-lal also took care to resume the many extravagant gifts which Shaocat-djung had at times bestowed; and after establishing order in the country, so as to arrange every matter of Government, and finance, he appointed a person to act as his deputy, and repaired to his master, who took care to assign suitable pensions to every one of his cousins. He carried them to his capital, where he took up his abode in a new palace of his, called Mansoor-gunj, and lived in all the pride of victory and prosperity.
