To—All  the  Inhabitants  of  the  Town  of  Rohtak.  -

 

    Proclamation  is  made.  That  one  man  is  not  to  stretch  out the  hand  of  violence  against  another,  and  that  all  are  to  continue  in  full  subjection  to  the  Authority  of  the  principal  land holders,  who  are  known  to  be  the  well-wishers  of  the  State. Civil  Establishments  and a  sufficient  Military  force  will  very soon  be  sent  to  make  all  necessary  arrangements.  Anxious concern  for  the  welfare  and  comfort  of  his  subject  is  cherished by  His  Majesty;  but  all  such  as  shall  be  guilty  of  acts  of  turbulence  or  disobedience  against  lawful  authority,  will  be  most severely  punished.  This  Proclamation  is  therefore  issued  for public  information.
