∗ For Dara's journey from Sindh to Ahmadabad and his doings there,—\*A. N.\* 296-299; Khafi Khan, ii. 62-63; Masum, 136b-137a; Aqil Khan, 80-81; Isardas, 43a (meagre). The Persian accounts speak of a chief named Bahàrà or Rao Bahara in this quarter. From Jai Singh's despatches (Paris MS. 109a and 96a) he can be identified with the Rao of Cutch. I think that the Mughals called him so from Bharmal (or Bahara Mal), the Rao who lived in Akbar's time and fought with the Imperial government. (\*Imp. Gaz.\* xi. 78). Once or twice Jai Singh speaks of 'the zamindar of Cutch' without using the title Bahara or Rao, but this need not mean that the latter was a different person.
