The Translation and Comment
by
Mohammed Abdulkarim:
of Original Document:
To—The King Shelter of the World
RESPECTFULLY SHEWETH,— That Your Majesty has directed me to pay 200 rupees to be expended on repairs to the bridge, whereas already the daily hire ofthe labourer is paid every evening. There is no necessity, accordingly, for the payment of this 200 rupees. There is no contract on account of the bridge, that the money should be given. The salary of the labourers is distributed to them daily, and now, too, it will be paid every evening. It was necessary, and I have therefore submitted it. (Prayers for the prosperity of the reign). Petition of the slave Mirza Zohur-ud-din. No date.
Autograph order by the King, in pencil
Mirza Moghal will make the necessary arrangements. Norte on the face—Received !8th August 1857. “This is to be kept with the receipts’’.
