v1.c10.s16.3
On the 19th Shawwal (4th September, 1719) a report was received that Husain Ali Khan was near Kuraoli on his way from Agra with Nekusiyar and the other captives. Next day he arrived, and one day after his arrival he was presented in audience. The quarrel which had broken out between the brothers over the booty taken at Agra, was here made up through the exertions of Rajah Ratan Chand. Abdullah Khan received twenty-one, or, as some say,† twenty-eight lakhs of Rupees, a sum which was supposed to represent his half-share, after all the expenses of the campaign had been deducted. The sword of Jahangir and the shawl of Nur Jahan were retained by the Emperor, but the rest of the booty was granted to the two brothers.‡
