Khan and his brothers had a numerous progeny, so that the Khans say that
of their grandfathers’ descendants they can muster a hundred riflemen.

ordinary strength.
The llkhani, Sau:at-ud-Dauleh, is not only the son of a Kashkuli mother
but he is married to a daughter of Haji’Abdullah Khan, nephew of Qasim
Khan : Ins wife s sister is married to Haidar ’Ali Khan Kashkuli, brother of
Muhammad ’Ah Khan. Like the llbegi, Saulat us-Sultaneh, some of the
younger Kashkuli Khans have begun to k.ke lessons in English.
