Dã,ud Khãn believed that they were sending him the tame dog also, but having waited many days in vain, he came to the conclusion, which was correct, that his owner, out of the affection he bore to him, refused to part with him. Accordingly, he sent a principal official of his court, escorted by some cavalry, carrying a letter, accompanied by a set of robes, and a horse, his orders being to bring back with him the third dog at any cost. When the letter was received, Captain Ignatio delivered the dog to the official, and wrote a letter in reply, giving the Nawãb to understand that he only sent the dog as a favour. During the journey this dog was placed in a palanquin, attended by various servants, some of whom were entrusted with the duty of feeding him, others \[175\] of bathing him daily owing to the great heat; others, again, brushed the flies away. He was produced before Dã,ud Khãn, who was highly pleased. At once he began to caress him, kissing him, and styling him, 'Brother' and 'Faithful Friend.' Forthwith an order was given for the preparation of a handsome silver chain, by which the dog was tied to the leg of the Nawab's bed, and his food was given from the Nawab's own table.
