Scope and content

As instructed I had come from Azimabad to see your assistant and convey all the news I had heard so far. Now I am informing you of events which took place after those reports. Navab Sahib, along with Muhammad Quli Khan Sahib, is staying in Lucknow; we have to wait and see what happens next. The situation at the capital is that the Nawab Vazir has asked the Marhattas to invade the territory of Najib Khan Rohelah and a battle is raging between the two armies. I have come to know that the Prince is staying at Chatardhar and is allocated a daily allowance of five hundred rupees. I am at present staying at Johnor but soon will be going towards the army of the Nawab near Lucknow. Please let me know if I have your permission to do so.
