New History of the Marathas v2.c24.117

v2.c24.117

"From what Shankaraji Malhar and you have written, the three important concessions, viz., of Swarajya, Chauthai and Sardeshmukhi have been satisfactorily secured. The only matter that yet remains to be executed is the release and return of our revered mother Yesubai, Madansingh and their staff. When this is effected, then only will all the strenuous exertions and mediations which Shankarajipant and yourself have been so selflessly rendering, have been profitably employed. Please do not neglect this point ; urge it incessantly upon the Saiyad's attention and have it quickly carried out. I have written fully on the subject to Shankarajipant from whom you can gather what my special anxiety is."
