for I was intimate for a time with the said Fath-numa and other principal men who were present, and the above facts are notorious throughout the Mogul realm. Daler Khan, to whom was made over the right attack, signalled to Dara to have the trenches vacated for his passage with his division of twelve thousand horsemen, all Pathans, in order that he might join Dara's army in conformity with the letter he had written. Dara, ignorant of the intended treachery, ordered him to be allowed a passage through the entrenchments without any opposition. In spite of this, a great many of Dara's men declined to let him through, but Daler Khan made his way past them. At that time Dara's army was busy in repulsing the enemy. Daler Khan and his men began at once to fall upon those in advance, putting them to the edge of the sword, and continued to do all the harm they could. Dara's army fell into the greatest confusion, and without making any stand or resistance the whole of them took to flight. Thus within less than three hours, the time for which the fighting on both sides lasted, the defeat of Dara was accomplished.
