Date(s) on item: Reg. yr 5, RabiI 12 sent: December 9 received Received your letter of 17 Safar, reg. yr. 5 informing that on 16 Muharram you sent a reply to Nawab Wazir al-Mumalik's letter as well as letters to Umdat al-Mulk Maharajah Thakur Mall and others and that you hoped they have been received by the addressees. You had received another letter from the Nawab Wazir al-Mumalik but was not able to reply to him because of other engagements. These letter were received by me on 9 Rabi I and were despatched by my own messengers to the Nawab Wazir al-Mumalik Bahadur, Umdat al-Mulk Maharajah Thakur Mall Bahadur, Rajah Daler Singh and Muhammad Sulaiman Khan Bahadur. I have written to the Rajah that he should deliver your letter to Nawab Wazir al-Mumalik in private and at the same time get a reply from him and send it to me. I will send this to you without any delay. Meanwhile, if you are writing a reply to Nawab Wazir al-Mumalik's other letter, kindly mention that before taking any decisions he should consult Mr Amherst Sahib. I always perform my duties with dedication and faithfulness and do not receive any orders from anyone but you. Earlier I had informed you about the parwanah issued by Mir Muhammad Jafar Khan with his own seal to Rajah Ram Narayan accusing him of interfering in the administration and revenue collection of Shahjahanpore, and Bhimpore, etc., and how the difficulties of the Rajah were resolved. Before this I had informed you about Khvajah Muhammadi Khan who for seven years was administrator of Nawab Samsam al-Daulah's estate and used to pay the dues of the sarkar. I am sure you may have liked that account
