v1.c24.53

It was agreed that Dummajee Gaekwar should be obliged to account to the Peishwa for the amount of the contributions he had levied in Malwa, but nothing was urged at this time respecting the large arrears due by Dhabaray to the head of the government. It does not appear that any settlement was concluded, but Dummajee seems to have remained some time in the Deccan, although his presence was much required in Guzerat. The Peishwa's southern and eastern boundaries in Hindoostan were well defined, by the Nerbuddah, the Soane, and the Ganges; but the sunnud delivered on this occasion authorized him to push his conquests to the northward as far as practicable.¹
