The Amir, Abu-Bikr, the Khalifah’s son, and the Amir-i-'Alam, Suliman Shah, the Aiyubi, they likewise martyred, until the whole of the Amirs and Maliks of the Court of the Khilafat, with the exception of the little son of the Lord of the Faithful, were made martyrs of. Hulau seized all the treasures of Baghdad, the enumeration of, and amount of which wealth, the pen of description could neither record, nor the human understanding contain, and conveyed the whole — money, jewels, gold and gem-studded vases, and elegant furniture— to his camp. Such of these as were suitable for Mangu Khan [Ka’an] with some of the females of the Khalifah's haram, together with a daughter of the Khalifah, he [Hulau] despatched towards Turkistan; some [things?] were sent, as presents, and as his portion, to Barka, the Musalman, and some Hulau himself retained.
