101. When he reached Labor, all the nobles attended, 
There was much noise, ranch oppression on the people.

Up to the year eleven hundred and sixty he ruled.

Notes. 
3. Ghdzi Khan. —This title did not belong to Qamru-d-din Khan, 
rtimadu-d-daulah, the chief minister, but is no doubt adopt¬ 
ed owing to the difficulty of getting the true names into the 
line. 
4. Majlis Uae. —Rae Majlis Rae, Brahman, the diwan of rtimadu- 
d-daulah Qamru-d-dm Khan, being oppressed in the troubles 
raised by Nadir Shah, took his own life at Sliahjahanabad 
in the end of Muharram 1152 H. ( Tarlkh-i-Mtihammadi ). 
The 29th Muharram=8th May, 1739, but for the exact date 
see note to verse 82. 
4. Khan Daurdn. —Khwajah Muhammad ‘ Asim, first Ashraf Khan, 
then Samsamu-d-daulali, Amiru-l-umara, Khan Dauran,

was wounded on the 15th Zu-l-qa‘dah 1151 H. (23rd Febru¬ 
ary, 1739), in a battle with Nadir Shah. He died on the 
19th of the same month (27th February), aged 68 years, 
( T-i-Mhdi). 
5. Nizamu-Lmulk’s appointment as Mir Atash could only have 
been a recent one. On his last visit to Court he reached 
Dihli on the 16th Rabi‘ I, 1150 H. (13th July, 1737). Five 
days afterwards, on the 21st Rabi‘ I, 1150 H. (18th July, 
1737) Mhd. Muqim, entitled Muqimu-d-din Khan, ddroahah 
of the TopJchanah . died at Sliahjahanabad. aged about 70 
years (T-i-Mhdi ). It was to this man that Nizamu-l-mulk 
must have succeeded. At the moment, I can find no authority 
for his having become Mir Atash, but the statement is, I 
think, correct. 
6. Turrah-bdz Khan. —Khwajah Muznffar, entitled Zafar Khan. 
Bahadur, Rustam Jang, Ba-wafa, son of Khwajah ‘ Abdu-1- 
qadir of Panipat, died in 1148 H. (1735-6), (T-i-Mhdi.) 
Turrah-baz was a nickname, due to the way in which this
