         To—The  Officers  and  Sulbadars  of  the  Army. May  health  and  safety  attended  you.  As  the  troops  which have  been  fighting  here  for  their  religion  have,  through  the ‘blessing  of  God,  been  completely  victorious,  you  are  hereby directed,  provided  you  still  continue  firm  in  your  religious tenets,  to  come  here  at  once,  for  you  will  richly  rewarded  by the  Government,  and  will  besides  preserve  your  religion  and creed.  It  is  confidently  expected  that  the  English  will  be  all killed  wherever  they  may  be.  As  for  this  place,  not  a  single Englishman  has  been  left.  The  King  is  now  established  on his  throne.  He  has  done  every  thing  to  keep  your  brethremof the  army  contented  and  satisfied,  and  has  bestowed  rewards on  them.
