To—Mirza  Moghul. 

Son,—The  illustrious  and  valiant  Mirza  Zohur-ud-din, otherwise  Mirza  Moghal  Bahadur. Learn,  that  orders  have, day  after  day,  been  issued  to  the  Officers  of  the  Cavalry  to vacate  the  Garden,  and  they  have,  till  now  done  nothing,  but make  excuses  and  promises. Definite  orders  are  therefore  now issued,  to  the  intent  that  you,  our  Son,  will  summon  the Officers,  and  will  tell  them  that  if  they  consider  themselves  the servants  of  the  State,  they  will  not  go  to  the  Batteries  to- morrow,  but  will  leave  the  Garden  and  remove  their  quarters to  Keetur’s  house,  situated  under  the  Palace,  where  there  is abundance  of  accommodation,  and  ample  shelter  of  trees. What  they  urge  in  reply,  you  will  submit  for our  consideration.
