¹ Ibn Batuta, writing about Ghiyāsu-d-dīn, says that the latter married a daughter of Jalālu-d-dīn, whose wife (the mother of that daughter) was his (Batuta's) wife's sister. [I am not sure what authority Mr. Sewell follows here. The latest translator of Ibn Batuta, Professor Gibbs, has, 'He (Ghiyathad-Din) was married to the daughter of the late Sultan Jalalu-d-din, and it was her sister that I had married in Delhi.' Ibn Batuta in Broadway Travellers series p. 162. Editor.]
