Nawab Muhammad Mir Khan returns from performing Eid Al Adha services. Mirza Shahrukh Bahadur requests a change in medical personnel for Ahsan Ullah Khan, proposing Hakeem Wajih ud Din as a replacement, but this is postponed due to a request from Nawab Zeenat Mahal Begum Sahiba. The narrative also touches on financial issues, revealing that around sixty Sultans have been waiting for their salaries for twenty-two months, leading to discontent among them and the poor whose salaries have been depleted.

Mirza Shahrukh Bahadur is involved in the distribution of these overdue salaries, with specific instructions to ensure fairness. He also reports excess expenditures in his accounts, suggesting adjustments from workshop earnings. His Highness Anwar, showing generosity, grants gifts including an elephant with musical accompaniments to Mirza Bulaqi Bahadur.

The narrative also includes observations from a Chief General of Sipah from Meerut and officials from a fort, along with a correspondence involving the Lieutenant Governor Bahadur. A personal note is added with the mention of Mr. James Gardner's audience with Ashraf Mahal Begum Sahiba for his departure. The text concludes with preparations for a royal engagement between Prince Mirza Mughal Bahadur and an unspecified lady, with plans for the wedding to be held the following year.
