_Letter from Raja Jai Singh of Amber to Rana Sangram Singh of Mewar, regarding Idar._

SRI RAMJI,[a.1.1]

SRI SITARAMJI,

When I was in the presence at Udaipur, you commanded[a.1.2] that Mewar was my home, and that Idar was the portico of Mewar, and to watch the occasion for obtaining it. From that time I have been on the look-out. Your agent, Mayaram, has again written regarding it, and Dilpat Ras read the letter to me verbatim, on which I talked over the matter with Maharaja Abhai Singh, who, acquiescing in all your views, has made a nazar of the pargana to you, and his writing to this effect accompanies this letter.

The Maharaja Abhai Singh petitions that you will so manage that the occupant Anand Singh does not escape alive; as, without his death, your possession will be unstable;[a.1.3] this is in your hands. It is my wish, also, that you would go in person, or if you deem this inexpedient, command the Dhabhai Naga, placing a respectable force under his orders, and having blocked up all the passes, you may then slay him. Above all things, let him not escape—let this be guarded against.

Asarh badi 7th (22nd of the first month of the monsoon), S. 1784 (A.D. 1728).

ENVELOPE.

The Pargana of Idar is in Maharaja Abhai Singh’s jagir, who makes a nazar of it to the Huzur; should it be granted to any other, take care the Mansabdar never gains possession.

8th S., 1784[a.1.4] [770].

Footnote a.1.1:

Ram and Sita, whom the prince invokes, are the great parents of the Kachhwaha race, of which Raja Jai Singh is the head. I have omitted the usual string of introductory compliments.

Footnote a.1.2:

These terms completely illustrate the superior character in which the Ranas of Mewar were held by the two princes next in dignity to him in Rajputana a century ago.

Footnote a.1.3:

This deep anxiety is abundantly explained by looking at the genealogical slip of the Rathors, at p. 1087, where it will be seen that Anand Singh, whom the parricidal Abhai Singh is so anxious to be rid of, is his own brother, innocent of any participation in that crime, and whose issue, although adopted into Idar, were heirs-presumptive to Marwar!

┌ Let my mujra (respects) be known: when Written according to │ in the Diwan’s presence he ordered, that custom in the margin with │ Idar was the portico, and Chappan the the Raja’s own hand. ┤ vestibule to Mewar, and that it was │ necessary to obtain it. I have kept this │ in mind, and by the Sri Diwan-ji’s fortune └ it is accomplished!

Footnote a.1.4:

[Forbes (Rāsmāla, 451), who gives the facts from local sources, remarks: “We do not know how this statement is to be reconciled with the following letter, quoted by Colonel Tod.”]

Transcriber’s Note

As noted in the Editor’s introduction to Volume I, the spelling of names and places is variable, as the system of transliteration underwent many changes in the intervening century. The use of macrons was not yet introduced in James Tod’s day. The bold-faced section titles were apparently added by the editor, who did employ the macron. This text, with very few exceptions, follows the text as printed.

Hyphenation of compound words follows the text, with the rare exception of when it occurs on a line break and the preponderance of other instances provides clear guidance.

Footnoted references on p. 1369 et seq to sections 6 and 8 of the Treaty given in Appendix V would seem to be incorrect. The provisions in Appendix IV conform with the discussion. Appendix V. had not been included in this printing, deemed to be too large.

Errors deemed most likely to be the printer’s have been corrected, and are noted here.

This list contains issues in the main text. References are to the page and line in the original.
