Letter from Miran,

I have reached Jahangirabad today, 5 Rajab and will be leaving here at about six hours passed midnight. I will pitch my tents when I reach Monghyre. It is therefore requested that you leave Monghyre earlier so that you can reach Azimabad and help Maharajah Ram Narayan. -- P.S. After I have travelled fourteen Karoh from here I intend to encamp at a distance of fourteen Karohs from Shafiabad. If you could travel six or seven Karoh from where you are now then you will be about two to three Karoh ahead of us.

Before you left this place you had promised to send 12 maunds of ammunition to us. This has not arrived here so far. I will be grateful if you could expedite its delivery so that it reaches here in time for use.

Letter from Miran,

I had earlier sent you a report on the situation in Azimabad. I hope you have read it by now. My advice is that we should sent reinforcements to Maharajah Ram Narayan. We can then achieve our victory. I will be leaving here in the early part of the evening tonight. If you travel at midnight your army can easily reach the destination in time. It is necessary that we march continuously to reach the battlefield as it is imperative that we help the Maharajah Sahib. -- P.S. As the Maharajah is fighting on our behalf he should be able to issue order on our behalf. Although he did not reply to two or three parvanahs I had issued previously but in the present circumstances he may be allowed to do so.

I have received your letter along with a copy of a petition from Ram Narayan. As I am travelling at present I will not be able to answer your question straight away.

Please let me know where will you be pitching your tents so that I could contact you there.

Letter from Miran,

Thank you very much for your letter stressing that I should have sent you the court case of Muhammad Rahim Khan. I did not inform you as I was hoping to come and inform you personally. I am therefore leaving here tomorrow and will encamp near you when I reach Nawab Ganj. -- P.S. While I was writing this letter I received a letter from Maharajah Ram Narayan for you. This is enclosed with this letter. Enclosure: Letter from Ram Narayan Bahadur to Clive on red paper, very fine and folded into a small tablet. -- Thank you very much for your letter of 27 Rajab, San 5, which came enclosed in a parvanah from Nasir al-Mulk Bahadur informing that after receiving the details of the war and my assurances you have decided to come to my help and advising me to hold on to the fort until the help arrives. You have indicated that you will be able to reach here in four to five days and I should try to hold on to the fort until then. With God’s grace I have been holding on to the fort until today, that is, the morning of Saturday, 1 Sha’ban, and which is eight or nine days since the battle began. I am sure Khvajah Afzu and my messenger on a camel would have reached you by now. Please let him know when you are nearer so that I can send a detachment of Tilangas to guide your advance towards the battlefield and help your forces in crossing the river. Another, contemporary translation of the enclosure is CC2/12, item no. 471.
