* (Firman of Emperor Ahmedashah 1752)
In the name of the purest, Highest in Station
(Seal) Be it known to the Officers and Managers of the present and future affairs of the province of Bengal and the other provinces under dominion that Jugut Sett Mahtaub Roy represented to us, the high in dignity, that mountain Paresnathjee, situate in the country of Bengal, the place of worship according to the Jain Setamburee religion; also the Cotee at station Mudhooban on a rent-free (lakheraj) ground butted and bounded by four boundaries belong (to the followers of) the Jain Setamburee religion and that he, the devoted supplicant is a follower of the Jain Setamburee religion, he therefore, is hopeful of the royal bounty that the mountain and the Cotee aforesaid be bestowed by the resplendent Huzoor on that obedient supplicant, so that, composed in mind, he may devote himself to pray according to that religion. Whereas the person aforesaid deserves Royal favour and bounty, also as it appears that the property he asks for has a particular connection with him, and (as) it appeared on inquiry instituted by this High in Dignity that mountain Paresnath and the Cotee aforesaid have from a long time appertained to the (followers of the) Jain Setamburee religion, therefore the whole of the mountain and Cotee at Mudhoobun butted and bounded by four boundaries, are bestowed by the Royal Court on the aforesaid person. It is required that he should always devote to pray himself for the welfare and prosperity of the state; and no one should offer opposition respecting the mountain Pareshnath and the Cotee at Mudhoobun. *. શ્રીયુત્ બાબૂ પૂરણચંદ નાહર અને શ્રી કૃષ્ણચંદ ઘોસના “એપીટોમ ઓફ
