Scope and content

On Monday the 7th of Safar one of my brother came from Hyderabad and brought me the news that Salabat Jang was staying in Hyderabad. His brother Nizam Ali khan and Nanaji, the son of Raghuji, are encamped at Nirmal near Hyderabad; they are planning to march further from there. This was reported on the 12th of Safar. Monsieur Bhonse is marching towards Phuljari with four or five hundred men, he is accompanied by French forces from Machhli Bandar. They say that Muhammad Ali of Arcott was hand in hand with the English and they believe that they will soon either kill or capture Nizam Ali Khan. Monsieur Bhonse with eight thousand men is stationed near Budapore on the Banks of the Kadavari.
