Scope and content
I had earlier received two letters, one from Nawab Munir al-Din Khan Bahadur, brother of late Nawab Anvar al-Din Khan, and Muhyi al-Din Khan. I have sent these along with my own letter to Mr Scrafton. I have not received replies to any of these letters. I hope there is nothing wrong. Now that you have become master and ruler of Bengal, I hope you will not forget the friendship of Muhammad Ali Khan. It is because of your friendship that I have come to Murad Bagh to see Mr Scrafton. Mr Scrafton took me to see Nawab Jafar Ali Khan on Thursday, the 11th of this month. However, without your prior permission Mr Scrafton did not say anything regarding me to the Nawab. Because of the rainy season I am unable to undertake any journey to come and see you personally. Therefore, for the sake of our friendship, I will appreciate if you could write a letter of recommendation to the Nawab. Once the rainy season is over, I will come and pay you a visit. Please also write to Mr Scrafton that he should recall details of my past services to the Nawab Sahib.
