Eitem CR9/6/11. - Letter from Pahlawan Singh to Dundi Chaudhari,$f[1757x1759] /$c Pahlawan Singh.

Thank you for your last report. I am with a person who is lord of both worlds. No one has the power to take over my state. The Raja of Ujain does not have the guts to look towards my lands with greed. They can burn ten or twenty of my villages but would not be able to takeover my state. The Prince is not going to move from here. If Beni Bahadur comes on this side of Benares he would see what happens to him. -- Translation of a letter from the tavakkul and companion of Pahlwan Singh to Dunde Chaudhari. -- The Prince came to see Pahlwan Singh on Wednesday. He presented four thousand rupees to him. Pahlwan Singh is managing the affairs of the army. Shivdat Narayan went to see Narobad Singh and asked him to join them. We are still waiting for their arrival. Sunbhal Singh went to the house of Raj Rup and later Pahlwan Singh also joined them. The Prince has five thousand horsemen and many more have deserted him. Raj Rup has gone with his force to Sehsaram to ambush the enemy forces at night. -- Enclosure: Translation of a holograph letter Pahlwan Singh wrote to Adhar Choley -- Thank you for your letter. This country is a gift from God and is not the property of any one person. The sons of Odey Singh are like children. They do not know how to reply to my letters. The Raja of Ujain should know very well that he cannot occupy my land. Farmers working on my land know my worth and would not allow anyone else to take over. Miran and Colonel Sahib would not be able to establish their camps in this area.
