CODRINGTON/READE NO 53. BOX 27. (Library, Royal Asiatic Society of Great Britain and Ireland)

Second flyleaf has title etc and notes in English. One states that the MS appears to have belonged to Nawwab Sayyid Husain 'Ali Khan Amir al-Umara, one of the famous brothers, i.e. the Sayyids of Barha. A second note written smaller and with different ink, but seemingly by the same hand, which is probably that of David Price, correctly identifies Khwand-amir as Mir Khwand's nephew rather than son. This ends: note on the inside cover of the owners MC?SS - nury? - David Price Folio 1, recto: note in Persian: Sarkar-i Nawwab Husain 'Ali Khan Amir al-Umara.
