বাঙ্গ্লার বেগম
The advices sent from Dacca touching these murders, wore despatched immediately after the first rumour of the deed; and from thence, as usual, imperfect: subsequent advices brought tho true state of that execution, as follows:
Gosseta Begum, widow of Shaw Amet Jung;
Emna Begum, mother to the Nabob Surajud Dowla, and widow to Geynde Amet Khan;
Morad Dowla, the son of Parsha Kooly Khan, adopted by the Shaw Amet Jung;
Lutfen Nessa Begam, widow Surajud Dowla;
Her infant daughters by Nabob Surajud Dowla.
These unhappy sufferers perished all in one night at Dacca, in the manner before recited, with about twenty of their women, of inferior note.—It was said Alleverdy Khan's Begum by some means escaped this massacre of her whole family.
A conceived though groundless jealousy of Morad Dowla's making his escape from his confinement in Dacca, was the cause of this infernal carnage. * * * * *
