Scope and content

Received your letter along with a copy of a letter from Raja Ram Narayan. I was delighted to read the good news about your health and of the war and defeat of the Prince by the Rajah. I have written to him congratulating him on this great victory and a copy is enclosed for your information. It may be sent to Nasir al-Mulk Bahadur so that he can send whatever help is needed to the aforesaid Rajah. -- Enclosure: Copy of the letter sent by Mir Jafar to Ram Narayan. -- I have received your letter addressed to Lord Clive detailing the events of the war and negotiations which took place afterwards as well as news of some other affairs. Navab Clive has sent a copy of this letter to me. I pray that God may grant you further victories over your enemies and provide you protection and stability. As Lord Clive has not replied to your letter he has advised me to tell you that you have proved yourself in the battle as well as in keeping your words with us. I am writing to Navab Nasir al-Mulk and Lord Clive again to arrange a meeting with you as soon as possible. Another, contemporary translation of the contents is CC2/12, item no.485.
