286 Of the early History of Sindh. [No. 1 1 2. 



His remains were brought to Tattah, and interred near those of his 

 father. After his death the Delhi kings, from the time of Jahangir 

 until the accession of the Kaloras, sent various nobles as deputies to 

 rule in that country. 



Mirza Rustum 

 was deputed by Jahangir, after the death of Ghazee Beg, to pro- 



„ . , .' ceed to Tattah as governor of Sindh ; he had before 



Kulers deputed by ° 



the Delhi sovereigns been governor of Zumeendarwar and Mooltan during; 

 of the family of Ti- & & 



moor, until the acces- the time of Akbar Padshah. It is said that Jahangir 

 sionof the Kaloras. . . . . _, _ _,_ . . . _ 



sent with him 5,000 horse, and two lacs of rupees 



to assist him in replenishing the treasury, and settling the affairs of 

 the country ; but he proved himself unfit to govern, and was dismiss- 

 ed. He was succeeded by Moosty Khan, also dismissed ; he by Meer 

 Bayeozzeed, 1028 h. 1618 a. d., who had been formerly Foujdar of 

 1028 h. 1618. a. d. Bukkur. After him Nuwab Shurf-ul-Mulk, in the 

 year 1035 h. 1625 a. d. During his time, the son of Jahangir* being 

 in rebellion, came to Tattah, where he wished to reside, but Shurf-ul- 

 Mulk opposed him and some conflicts ensued. 



Mirza Eessan Tirkhan, son of Khan Baber, and grandson of the 

 former governor of the same name. 



He was concerned with Abool Cassim, in the revolt against Mirza 

 Ghazee Beg, and after the capture of the former, entered the service 

 of Jahangir, who honoured him ; and in reward for various services 

 performed, made him a commander of 4,000 horse, and in the year 

 1037 h. 1627 a. d., (the last of the reign and life of Jahangir,) he 

 was appointed governor of Tattah, in which situation he died, during 

 the reign of Shah Jehan. 



Nuwab Ameer Khan. 

 In the beginning of his rule he had some differences with the zu- 

 meendars, but he settled the affairs of the country, and was a good and 

 just man. So little of interest is recorded in the histories of the 

 succeeding governors, that it will be sufficient to mention them in 

 chronological order : — 



* Probably Khurrum Khan, afterwards Shah Jehan, who rebelled against his 

 father in 1624 a. d.
