v1.c6.s13.11

∗ According to the *M. U.* ii. 500 (under Sayyid Husain Khan) S. Husain K. was faujdar of Amber. On hearing of the flight of the Rajahs and their intention to attack he made ready at Amber with his three sons, Abu Said Khan, Ghairat Kh., Hasan Kh., his brother-in-law Mahabat Kh. and two sisters' sons Mhd. Zaman Khan and Sayyid Masaud Khan. His newly raised troops on the arrival of the Rajputs lost their heads and fled. The Khan came out of Amber with a small force and opposed Durgadas Rathor in the plain of Kalah Dahra. The Rajputs were defeated but the Khan's camp was plundered and the son left in charge of it was killed. Next day the Khan retreated in great disorder and reached Narnol and there collected fresh troops. Again there was a fight near Sambhar against R. Jai Singh. At the beginning the Khan got the upper hand; but suddenly 2000 to 3000 matchlockmen left in hiding behind a sand hill discharged their guns. The Khan with his small force was surrounded. He and his leaders were killed. Mhd. Zaman Kh. and S. Masaud Kh. were taken prisoners. The first was executed and the second, then about 16, was brought to the Rajah. His tomb is situated in a bagh at Sambhar. Built by the Rajah.
