Lachmī Narain, ruler Kūc (Cooch) Bihar, account of kingdom, 106 668, defeat of the Pātkunwar (Prince-Royal) 1081-82, 1093-94. The defeat of Rājah Mān Singh's son Durjan Singh is mentioned on p. 1093. The word in Persian text for a landed proprietor is bumī, and bumīān is used apparently for the plural.
