v1.c6.s21.7
Soon, the two commanders, Muhammad Amin Khan and Rustam Dil Khan, began to quarrel and send in complaints against each other. From this cause the pursuit relaxed. The charge against Rustam Dil Khan was that, after he had learnt the Guru's hiding-place in the hills, and had resolved to surround it, the fugitive made overtures of humble submission, and on several occasions sent large presents of money to his pursuer. These presents caused Rustam Dil Khan to delay his advance. By this remissness the Guru succeeded in effecting his escape. Muhammad Amin Khan's story was believed, and Rustam Dil Khan was recalled to Lahor. From that time the operations slackened.*
