Scope and content

Thank you for your reply to my letter along with a copy of a letter from the Nawab informing me about the dismissal of Mir Ali Akbar and that I should ask Misri Khan to deliver the summons to him and as soon as he arrives he should be sent to Murshidabad. You have informed me that Muhammad Misri Khan was coming here with five hundred horsemen, one thousand musketeers, and with parvanahs addressed to the zamindars. -- Enclosure: 1 -- Our guards, who after entering the port of Balsar had established a post, are now the 20th of Safar, San 5, moving to Madanpur; their details are given below. Mir Ali Akbar is sending his men to you with details. -- Enclosure: 2 -- The parvanah, which you had sent for Ali Akbar, has been handed over to him.
