v1.c20.14

Amongst the appointments of this period, it is proper to mention those of Hyder Koolee Khan to Guzerat, which he at first governed by deputy; and of Sadut Khan, first to Agra and afterwards to Oude; during the short time the latter held both governments, he also entrusted Agra to a deputy. Sadut Khan has been already mentioned as an active conspirator against his former patrons the Syuds, and he afterwards bore a large share in the events of his time, but he is best known in British India as the ancestor of the present King of Oude.
