Meantime, the Emperor, then at Islampuri, 280 miles north of the scene of this disaster, on hearing of the danger to Qasim Khan, had sent Hamid-ud-din Khan from his side and Rustam-dil Khan from Haidarabad to support him. They had united near Adoni, but too late to do anything except to receive and help Khanazad on his return. Here Khanazad’s army was reclothed and newly furnished by the gifts and forced contributions from the officers and residents of Adoni. [M. A. 379, but *Akhbarat*, year 39. sh. 72, differs.]*
