Liei((.-Colonel BniGGs' Translation of the 



" Memorandum. Additional requisitions made by his Highness Ra- 

 ghunAth Rao, and agreed to by the Peshwa, written in the hand of 

 each : 



In Raghunat'h Rao's hand : 

 " Article I. Incase Bhosla (Raja of 

 Nagpore), the Gaikwar, or any other 

 chiefs should have made use of ex- 

 pressions, or conducted themselves 

 for my sake in an offensive manner, 

 no notice is now to be taken of 

 what has passed. If they are guilty 

 of high crimes hereafter, let them 

 be punished accordingly. 

 " Article II. In the event of the 

 troops of government passing through 

 my estates and damaging them, I 

 am to be indemnified for the loss, if 

 considerable. If the damage does 

 not exceed one thousand rupees, I 

 shall make no demand for remune- 

 ration. 



" Article III. If Hoxkar should 

 plunder the districts on the Ner- 

 budda, he shall be fined in four 

 times the amount. 



" Article IV. When Damaji Gaik- 

 war, Bhosla, Holkar, Sindia, and 

 other such great chiefs proceed from 

 hence to their commands, it would 

 be gratifying to me that they should 

 come to Anandivalh, and after re- 



in Madhu Rao's hand : 

 " Article I. The persons alluded to 

 shall not be visited with punishment 

 for any thing that has occurred. If 

 any one should be guilty in future, 

 he will be punished accordingly. 

 " Agreed. 



" Article II. Government troops 

 " have no business on your estates ; 

 " notwithstanding which, orders shall 

 " be issued to prevent damage. The 

 '« district of Hindia may lie on the 

 " road, but precautions shall be taken 

 " to prevent damage. If it should 

 " be only trifling, it is hoped you will 

 " pass it over : if the damage be 

 " heavy, it shall be made good to 

 " you. 



" Agreed. 



" Article III. If Holkar wantonly 

 " plunder your districts, he shall be 

 '« compelled to make restitution for 

 «' the injury sustained. 



" Agreed. 



" Article IV. When the chiefs of 

 " Hindustan return, they shall be di- 

 " rected to wait on you on their de- 

 " parture, when you may entertain 

 " them for three or four days, and 

 " then take leave of them.
