THE cause of writing this line is this. They have brought to the office of the Kotwal of the village of Rauipoor the skin of a black horse, with the mark of the stables of Government (which are under the management of Meer Ali Krori of the Pergunneh of Sam), upon his thigh, which fell down at the Inn of Bazeed Khan, on the 21st of the Month Mohur­rum ul Heram, in the Year 1190. Accordingly many creditable people who were in that Inn have given evidence to this effect. Therefore these few words are written as a state of the case.
