RANA SETT.
could not venture to make any promises, but that on our return to
India we should endeavour to have them sent.
In the course of the evening the Deewan brought four or five letters
of recommenoation to the different chiefs, on our route to the south
ward of Kelat, which had been written by the Jam's orders, and were
read to us. Rana Sett returned to Sonmeany this night; and when
he came to take leave of us we presented him with a piece of chintz,
a spying glass, and some other trifling articles. Ihis man had been
exceedingly civil, and we should have been pleased to have made him
a better return for the services he had done us, but our character would
not permit it. A few moments before he left us we had a most
satisfactory evidence of his belief in our avowed intentions. When
Toolsia purposely accused him of having dispatched an agent to
Bunkar, a village on the Kelat road to buy horses, he confessed the
fact, but in palliation of what he imagined would have given us gieat
offence, protested he wanted a very inferior kind, and that at all
events, his agpnt had positive instructions not to go further to the
northward than Runkar. We were vexed afterwards to learn, that
he had recalled him in consequence of the supposed interference
with our views.
