al-‘Amal of an Ajmir Qaniingi, and the other an unique historical 
work without title by Ghiyath al-Din Md. Jami who is 
in the 10th century of the Hijrah. I have mentioned this work 
in detail in my notices. (No.55). When I arrived at Murshid- 
abad in 1917, the Diwan was undergoing medical treatment in 
Calcutta and died there shortly afterwards. There is a copy of 
the first work (Dastir al--Amal!) in the A.S.B. Library. The 
copy under notice bears the signature of Mr. Blochmann, dated 
A.D. 1870 = a.H. 1287. The library has no catalogue. After 
the death of the Diwan, it was removed to Salar, his home in 
the District of Murshidabad.

It appears that no improvement in the library wa 
effected by the successors of the founder, Sir Nawwab Ahsat- 
Allah and Sir Nawwab Salim-Allzh. 
Great credit is due to Col. J. Hodding, ¢.1.5., Chief Manager, 
Nawwab’s Estate, for preparing a list of the works m ee 
library. The A.S.B. is obliged to him for kindly sending te 
list together with certain MSS. on loan.
