Scope and content
Following the will of our late father, Navab Mir Muhammad Ja'far Khan, my late brother Navab Najm al-Daulah had sent you five Lac rupees with the instructions that this sum may be distributed as charity amongst your soldiers. Last year my late brother had deposited another six Lac rupees with the treasury of the East India Company for the same purpose. Out of this amount three Lac rupees were received at Murshidabad. The remaining three Lac rupees remain in the treasury of the Company. This amount should be allocated for the welfare of soldiers and distributed amongst them appropriately.
