v1.c7.s4.2

∗ Dastur-ul-insha, 20,—Kamwar Khan, 109, says that Azim-ush-shan's corpse was brought in, and speaks (138) of its being sent by Farrukh-siyar to Aurangabad for burial; Yahya Khan, 117b also says it was found in the river and brought in; but I prefer the account in Amin-ud-din's letters, as given in the Dastur-ul-insha. I believe these letters to be genuine, and they were evidently so considered by Ghulam Husain Khan, who used them in writing his Siyar-ul-mutakherin, see Briggs, 29. Warid, 63, states that the elephant was brought in, but many believed that Azim-ush-shan escaped alive, since his body had not been found. When Warid wrote, nineteen years afterwards, the Prince had never been heard of. Others asserted that Rajah Raj Singh, styled Raj Bahadur, had carried off the corpse to his own country, i.e., Kishangarh (Mhd. Qasim, 51).
