TRANSLATION

Huzoor Wala

It was reported that the salary recipients and daily wage earners are greatly distressed over the delay in receiving their salaries, with only one month's salary being distributed out of three in the Khansamani area.


Following this complaint, Mirza Shahrukh Bahadur was ordered that withholding the sustenance of the poor and needy is not appropriate. Upon hearing this, Mirza Mosoff remained silent. It is heard that in every small and large workshop, there is a reduction in expenses. 


Consequently, the thirteen seers of meat, which were designated for daily consumption, are said to have been stopped.


Regarding the engagement of Sabiya with Mr. James Gardner, Colonel Iskander Sahib, and Nawab Hasna Ali Khan, among other leaders, presented themselves before His Highness Anwar with boats decorated with embroidered fabrics, alongside gifts of jewels, a turban with a brooch, records, a ceremonial headgear, a zarbaft robe, two shawls, two horses, and an elephant with musical instruments for Mirza Mughal Bahadur as a token of respect. His Highness Anwar graciously bid them farewell with scents and rose water. 


Afterwards, Ashraf Mahal Begum Sahiba hosted a feast for Malika Begam Sahiba and honored her attendants with robes. Subsequently, Mr. James Gardner headed towards Kasganj on behalf of the distinguished queen.
