162 W. Irvine—TZhe Bangash Nawabs of Farrukhabad. [No. 2, 
had no children. Ahmad ’Ali Khan had only one daughter, and she married 
a Pathin of some village near Koil. From Daim Khan was derived 
much of the information recorded by Bahadur ’Ali, joint author of the 
Lauh-i-Térikh, his grandfather Sayyad Ghulam Hussain (who died 1226 
H. January, 1811—January, 1812), having been for forty years in 
Daéim Khan’s service, and lived at the gateway of his house in Far- 
rukhabad. 
3. Fukhr-ud-daula—He wasa chela of Muhammad Khan’s time 
(see p. 346, Vol. XLVIJ.). He was Ahmad Khan’s first Bakhshi, and played 
a prominent part in the later years of that Nawab’s life, and in the first 
year of Muzaffar Jang’s reign. He was assassinated in 1772-3 and is buried 
in the Bihisht Bagh. 
4. Rahmat Khén—He was the son of Jahin Khan, chela of Muham- 
mad Khan. He became second Bakhshi. He was fond of men of learning 
and passed his time in fasting and prayer. He was noted for his generosity 
and bravery. 
5. Haji Sarfardz Khén—He was the third Bakhshi. He had the 
peculiarity of prefacing every sentence he spoke with the words “ B’ism- 
allah.”’ 
6. Namdér Khin—No. 29 in list of Muhammad Khan’schelas. The 
fourth Bakhshi. 
7. Mihrbaén Khén—He held the post of Diwan. He was the son of 
a Rajah whose father, during the Allahabad campaign, presented him to 
the Nawab. He was a poet, had written a Dewdn and was very eloquent ; 
Wali-ullah gives us a specimen of his poetry. The celebrated poets, Mirzé 
Rafi’ Sauda and Mir Soz, were for a long time in his employ. 
8. LIsldm Khén—At one time he held the office of third Bakhshi. He 
had a house close to the Buland Mahal in the fort (which in 1839 was occu- 
pied by Nawab Tajammul Husain Khan, Zafar Jang). Once Naw4b Ahmad 
Khan asked him how many sons he had. Islam Khan replied, that he had 
five, Amana, Kardmata, Bakwa, Rahmand, Barhnd. The Nawab, out of 
sympathy for his large family, appointed him Faujdar of Kasganj (now in 
the Eta district). Islam Khan started, taking as usual some of the Nawdb’s 
foot soldiers and a couple of guns. When the money-dealers and land- 
holders came to present their offerings to the new Faujdar, Islam Khan, 
addressing them in full durbar, said he had been sent to procure money, and 
within eight days the monied men must preduce one lakh of rupees. He 
would give a bond making the money repayable with interest from the in- 
coming revenue. ‘They all began to make excuse. Then Isl4m Khan set up 
a triangle and had several money-lenders flogged. To save their honour, the 
rest joined together to provide the lakh of rupees, Islam Khan gave them 
a bond for the amount.
