Their campaign in the first half of 1684 was highly successful; many Maratha forts were taken, their field armies repeatedly defeated, and much territory annexed. Their crowning feat was the capture of two wives, one daughter and three slave-girls of Shambhuji, who were confined in the fort of Bahadurgarh in July. (M.A. 245-246.) One wife and one sister of the Maratha king had been captured before by Dilir Khan and lodged in Ahmadnagar fort. [Akh. 27 Nov. 1681.]
