Lutfuilah 160 Madho Kamal-uddm, who was a great saint of his time in the province of Malwa, heing the spiritual guide as well as general preceptor of Sultan Mahmiid Khilji, during a period of 30 years. After his death, the Sultan built a magnificent mausoleum at the western gate of the city, and endowed therein a shrine to the memory of the holy man ; opposite to it he caused to be raised another edifice, surmounted by a superb dome, which was intended as a resting-place for his own mortal remains, and there they still repose. Lutfullah proceeded to England as secretary to Mir Ja'far ' Ali the son-in-law of Mir A.fzal-uddm, Nawab of Surat in March 1S44, and after his return from Eng- land he wrote his adventures in 1864, entitled the " Auto- biography of Lutfullah" in English, and dedicated it to Colonel W.

He was an excellent poet and flourish- ed in the time of Ami'r Timur. The poet Shaikh Azuri has mentioned him in his work called " Jawahir ul-Asrar." He is the author of the " Tarfkh Shahrukh," which is an abridgment of the history of Amir Timur, with memoirs of the first nine years of the reign of his son and successor Shahrukh Mirza to whom he dedicated the work 1413 A.

Lutfullah Muhammad Muhaddis bin-Ahmad, <:y*^ tiH d>'>^'° aJJl '^i^^, author of the work called "'Asman Sakhun," a rhymed abridgment of the "Taz- kira Daulat Shahi." We are informed in the preface that Eaezi Kirmani rendered the Tazkira of Daulat Shah in Persian verses in the reign of Akbar and altered the division of the original, making ten periods instead of seven ; Lutfullah, who was a contemporary of Aurangzib 'Alamgi'r, remodelled this version and added two periods more to make the number correspond with the signs of the Zodiac ; and in allusion to it, he gave it the above title. It consists of 250 verses ; every verse contains the name of a poet. Lutf-unnisa Begam, the wife of Sirdj- uddaula, nawab of Bengal.

Madaeni, ij^i^'^, a celebrated historian who was a native of Madden in Persia. Madan Pal, Maharaja, J^^'", G. C. S. I., of Karauli, died of cholera on the 17th August, 1869. This event has deprived Rajputana of one of the best native rulers. The Maharaja* having died without a son, the Government of India has recognised Lachhman Pal, the son of his younger brother Bishan Pal as successor to the Eaj of Karauli. This young man had not long been- at Karauli, when he became the subject of an ailment from which he died in a few days. His death certainly wears a somewhat suspicious appearance.
