News reports from Benares -- On the 18th of Sha'ban, San 6, Rajah Balvand Singh Bahdu along with Rajah Beni Bahdur went to see the Prince. Rajah Ram Singh came from Ramnagar and Rajah Beni Bahadur from Benares and they met in Gang Maki and then went to see the Prince. After staying for four ghari there they returned to their states. Beni Bahadur's servant, Mir Murtaza Jamadar, is staying in Ramnagar. Rajah Beni Bahadur is at present (19th Sha'ban) staying in Madhudas Bagh in Benares; his army is encamped around the garden and water tank. Rajah Beni Bahadur called Rae Kirpa Dayal, who is a trusted servant of Nawab Muhammad Quli Khan, in Benares and asked him to write to Nawab Muhammad Quli Khan that he should not try to come to Benares as he will be arrested. This is because Nawab Shuja al-Daulah has criticised the conduct of Quli Khan. -- Zain al Abidin, Jamadar, with four hundred horsemen and foot soldiers was sent here by Nawab Shuja al-Daulah; he has gone to see Muhammad Quli Khan.
