¹ Mahratta MSS. [Sivājī is supposed to have occupied Torna unawares, while the Killedār and garrison were encamped in the valley during the height of the south-west monsoon. (Kincaid and Parasnis, p. 134.) Krishnājī A. Sabhāsad does not mention the capture of Torna, and Persian accounts, mentioned by Professor J. Sarkar, declare that Chandan was the first fort taken by him. (Shivaji and His Times, p. 38 n.)]
