Thank you very much for your letter informing me that you were going by high-speed coaches to the border areas of the province to subdue some of the zamindars there and that you have arrived at Manz/Manar? on Thursday and that you will be reaching Sarodha soon. With the grace of God you will achieve victory soon. Because of this news Navab Nasir al-Mulk Bahadur has decided to wait here today. I too am longing to join you but it is necessary that I too wait here. -- Enclosure 1: -- Nearly a month ago one of our messenger named Choto came to Banghapore from Aurangabad. He told me personally that Divan Shah Navaz Khan had left Daulatabad with an army of a hundred thousand horsemen and after joining with Bala Rao Marhatta laid siege on Auranagabad. Nizam Ali Khan, the brother of Salabat Janag Bahadur, came out of the fort of Aurangabad and gave them a tough battle. He has chased them to Sanam Khadha and Khalsah and they are fighting battles every day. Meanwhile, the mother of Nizam Ali Khan enticed Mosa Bhose to Haidarabad and had him imprisoned. Prices of commodities like wheat, flour, lentils, oil, etc. sold in the camps of the armies are as follows. -- Enclosure 2: Details of a letter sent from Ganges by harakaras on the 20th of Ramazan and received at Gharpa'e on the 26th of Ramazan and at Calcutta on the 29th of Ramazan. -- I reached Gharpae at midnight on Sunday the 26th of Ramazan, San 5, and related the news personally that on the 8th of Ramazan Radhan Pandit, Lacchuman Pandit, Fath Khan, Divan Bhagat Ram arrived by the river Ganges at Balsar Port and have joined forces with Bhatt. They are plundering, burning and looting all the surrounding areas. -- Another report is that there was a battle fought between Mosa Hajjam? and Narayanji Ram Rae on the 6th of Ramazan, San 5, in which Narayanji Ram was victorious and Mosa was killed in the battle. It is not clear how Mosa could later wage war against Salabat Jang and was imprisoned. The prisoners who were in the custody of Mirza Muhammad Salih at Ganges were attacked by the Marhattas who have captured Mirza Muhammad Salih and his associates and imprisoned them.
