Looking on the Nabob's anfwer as an evafive one, and that he was not inclined to comply with my requeft, I never wrote or thought any more on this fubject, until I received a fecond letter from Jaggerleat in an- fwer to my firft, after our fuccefs againft the King's fon, that the Nabob had turned the thing in his mind, and was willing to grant me D 2 a a Jaghire in Bengal ; but the nature of it> where, or of what value it was to be, i was in- tirely ignorant, till the-patent explained it, and I... confefs it gave me the greater pleafure to find it to be the Lordihip of the Company's lands, becaufe the Company was thereby freed from all dependance on the government. It now remains to fay fomething of the va- lidity and nature of the grant. It is to be ob- ferved, that the lands ceded to the Company by the IXth article of the treaty, were only ceded to them as perpetual Jemindars, or rent, ers, the Nabob referving the lordfhip and quit- rents, which amounted to near 30, 000 /. Year- ly -, and the Company could never be lawfully difpofiefied, fo long as they continued to pay that quit-rent.
