∗ *CPC.* i. 2735, 2735 A, ii. 1101, 846, 847. Jassa Singh, the Sikh sardar, had invited the Emperor (Jan. 1768) to come to Delhi, "assuring him that the whole empire would be again united and restored to him." Shah Alam had replied that he could not take that action unless the *whole body* of Sikh sardars formed a binding confederacy to escort him and sent a written pledge to that effect. (ii. 849.)
