This encounter took place in S. 1462, A.D. 1406. The brunt of the battle fell on the Sankhlas, and only twenty-five out of three hundred and fifty left the field with their leader, Mehraj, himself severely wounded. The rejected lover had four brothers dangerously hurt ; and in six months the wounds of Arankanwal opened afresh : he died, and the rites to the manes of these rivals in love, the *chhamasa*¹ of Sādhu, and the *duadasa*² of Arankanwal, were celebrated on the same day.
