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’’.
