New History of the Marathas v1.c14.54

v1.c14.54

Article 16 says, “We have conquered Tanjore and the adjoining districts of Ekoji worth about 7 lacs of Hons. These we hand over of our own free will to Ekoji as his own separate possession.” Article 17 says, “We assign territory worth one lac to Raghunāth Pant in complete hereditary succession.” Article 19 says, “Ekoji should look after the upkeep of the tomb of our father Shahji Raje.” Evidently this filial duty was now assigned to Ekoji.⁶
