A History of the Mahrattas v1.c18.133

v1.c18.133

After compliments: ‘Your letter has been received, wherein you mention your intention of proceeding to Nubhee Shahdroog (Panalla), and forwarding the grain to camp, and that the Thanna of Mulcapoor has been plundered, of which you desire to have correct intelligence The same thieves have cut off all supplies from the Thanna of Kurar, by which that place is much distressed. The names of the thieves are Mahdoo Rao (Pureshram’s brother), Tookhoo Mulhar, Sunta Nandhera, Lingoo Manay, Bhala Ghatgay, Shahjee Nimbalkur, and others. They have ten thousand horse, and are now near this place, between Ound and Korygaom. Oosman Khan, who was proceeding from the presence to join you, was furnished by me with one hundred horse and one hundred infantry, but he has been obliged to remain here (in Kuttao), and cannot advance.
