### [65.38.8](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.65.38.8)

It happened at this time that the victorious soldiers who were pursuing Dara lighted upon a carriage in which was the Dutch factor who had come in Dara's train, hoping that if he took the field he would be rewarded for this extra devotion. He was now retreating on his way to the city of Ahmadabad. The soldiers attacked the carriage on all sides, ordering him to give up his arms and all he had with him. The factor imprudently attempted resistance, and putting hands on his two pistols, made as if he intended to fire, imagining that thereby he would frighten those surrounding him. But at that moment these let fly at him a shower of arrows, and thus he came to lose his life and the goods that he had meant to protect.
