183.1.6

Kutb-ud-Din had soon to take the field again to support the son of Rae Pithora, who had been installed tributary ruler of Ajmir. The Sadr-i-’Ala, Kiwam-ul-Mulk, Rukn-ud-Din, Hamzah, who held the fief of Rantabhur, sent information that Bhim, also written Bhum, who is called Hiraj in some imperfect copies of the Taj-ul-Ma’asir, Hemraj by Firishtah, and Hamir by some others, brother of the late Rae Pithora, had broken out into rebellion; that the son of Rae Pithora, who is sometimes called [the?] Golah, but generally styled merely “the son,” was in great danger; and that the rebel was advancing against Rantabhur itself. Kutb-ud-Din marched from Dihli against him; but Bhiraj [or Hamir], on hearing of his coming, made off and took to the hills. Rae Pithora’s son [see Tod, who says his only son, Rainsi, did not survive him! He further states that Dow, mistaking the appellation of Pirt’hwiraja’s natural brother for a proper name, calls him Golah. The error is Firishtah’s, however, not Dow’s, in this instance], ruler of Ajmir, was, upon this occasion, invested with an honorary robe; in return he presented valuable offerings, among which were three golden melons [kettle-drums, in the shape of melons], and, in all probability, the very same as mentioned at page 404.
