sons, the coinage of tlie 'Alai government had become (to a certain 

 degree) established ; but it Avas now still further confirmed by this 

 victory over the Mughuls, and the Sultan's power and authority were 

 vastly augmented. Proclamations of the victory were published 

 throughout the city, drums beaten, pavilions erected, rejoicings made, 

 and festivities celebrated. Now that the 'Alai GTovernment had been thus 

 consolidated, the whole of the Jalali Maliks, in each town and through- 

 out the army, who had turned their backs upon their master, and gone 

 over to Sultan 'Alauddin, for which they had received maunds of gold, 

 and obtained various employments and estates, were seized, and while 

 some of them were cast into prison, and kept in confinement, others

 second, Malik Nasiruddin Eanah, custodian of the elephants, and 

 third, Amir Jamal,* father of Qadr Khan. These three individuals 

 did not desert Sultan Jalalucldin and his sons, nor would they 

 take any money from Sultan 'Alauddin, and they alone remained 

 safe in consequence, while the rest of the Jalali Amirs were extermi- 

 nated root and branch. 



In the course of this year, Nucrat Khan collected by fines and taxes 

 a crore (of money), and lodged it in the treasury. 



In the third year of his reign, Ulugh Khan and Nucrat Khan 

 were deputed to G-ujrat ; whither they accordingly led their army, 

 accompanied by several Amirs and Maliks, and a host of retainers, 

 and commenced ravaging and plundering Nahrwalah [Patau] and the 

 whole territory of Gujrat. Karan Eai of Gujrat thereupon fled 

 from Nahrwalah, and repaired to Ram Deo at Deogir, leaving his
