To MEER AHMED ALI; TAALÛKDÂR of NURSIPOOR, dated
29th TÛLOOEY. (5th January.)

YOUR letter has been received. You write, “that the superseded “Aumil has, notwithstanding the guard [placed over him], escaped “from the fort.” It is known. We have a just claim for thirty thousand pagodas on the same Aumil: you must [therefore] speedily discover him; otherwise you will be responsible for the sum in question.
