The best of his equals and contemporaries, deserving of 
favour and kindness. Raja Budh Parkash may know that his 
‘arzdasht together with a falcon and some honey have been re- 
ceived and shown tous. As the falcon was too young, we 
proval. As to the turbulent zamindar of Srinagar between 
whom and the addressee there is always war, the addressee has 
done well to bring the matter to the notice of the high and 
holy Presence. We have understood what he says regarding 
the quantity of the snowfall there, the dilatoriness of Abdu-r- 
man, the Daroghah, in collecting snow and the wages of the 
labourers. An illustrious farman has consequently been sent 
i collect snow diligently and 
telling him thatthe wages of the labourers will be pai 
ing to the agreement, and that if he is remiss in collecting 
snow, as he was last year, he shall suffer the consequences. 
Dated 25th Muharram, the 23rd year of the Julus.
