v3.c39.s1.3
Sindhia held many private conferences with the Emperor, some on the problems facing that helmless Government, some on the persistent English request to recall the fugitive Prince Jawan Bakht to Delhi at the head of five trained sepoy battalions and give him a vast appanage. Above all, there was the urgent question of finding the large sums necessary for maintaining the Emperor’s household and regularly paying the enormous army assembled in his name. [HP. 369.
