∗ Valentyn, 291, says he died at noon of 28th and the cause was apoplexy following on a cold. He also reproduces a rumour, evidently mere camp gossip, that Bahadur Shah was severely wounded in the stomach by a general "Jensiati Chan," who was surprised in company of one of the Emperor's wives. The murderer was in turn cut down within the harem by two of the guards. Bahadur Shah was supposed to have survived the wound three days. Some authorities [Viceroy of Goa] say the Emperor was poisoned, but no evidence is brought forward.
