When I arrived, Mulla Shah Mahomed [the Wazir] first said to me, "Go back and tell the people to raise a holy war." I did not feel certain about what he said [or was not satisfied with this], [but] the Amir afterwards told me to go back that very hour and rouse the people to a _ghaza_.

I got back to Kabul about 7 o'clock, and am collecting the people.
Salaam.' The letter was not addressed, but it was sealed with Nek Mahomed's seal, and there was no reason to doubt its authenticity.] * * * * *.
