Thank you very much for your letter. In order to help me to safeguard the interests of the Company, you and the Mahrajah Bahadur have kindly posted a force of six hundred armed / barqandaz tilangas under the command of Mr Kings / Cook. As the interest of my people and those of the Company are the same we feel very much encouraged by your support. God willing we will be able to defeat the enemy soon. The enemy force which reached here was supported by the zamindars. They have come down from the valley they had captured from you with great pride and after crossing the jungle they have now established their defence lines with bushes of thorns. God willing and with your help we will soon be able to destroy them. We will be able to destroy them easily if they come out in the plains but if they retreat to the jungles behind we will have to go into the jungle to destroy them. In any way we will soon be able to send them all to Hell
