[No. 1, 
66 C. J. Rodgers —Some Goins of Ranjit Deo. 
The only matter not noticed by the authorities I have used, but de¬ 
scribed by Major Smyth is that Ranjit Deo was imprisoned by the 
governor of Lahore from 1749 to 1760 A. D., when he escaped on a 
horse no one could tame except himself. After visiting his mountain 
home, however, he returned to Lahore and to captivity, but the governor 
was so much struck with this noble conduct he allowed him to return 
to Jummu. 
P. S.—I have just obtained some more specimens of the coins of Ranjit 
Deo. From a comparison of five I am able to complete the deciphering 
of the inscription on the obverse. It is as follows :— 
(Je efjfy 
which may be literally translated thus :— 
Ranjit Deo peopled this part, Lachmi Narain made glad its heart.
