Hājīuddabīr describing the Khaljīs of Mandu says that Afrasiyāb, a son-in-law of Changīz Khān, had three sons, the youngest of whom was Tolak Khān. Tolak had two sons Nāsiruddīn and Fīroz, the latter of whom served under Balban and seized the throne from the son of Kaiqubād. \*Zafarul Vālī\* p. 197. This narrative is legendry. Beale: \*Oriental Biographical Dictionary\*, p. 137 says that Qaem Khān was the father of Jalāluddīn. The actual name of Jalāluddīn's father is difficult to find. That Jalāl's father held the title of Yoghresh Khān is attested by a number of historians. \*T.M.S.\* p. 57.
