MOBARIK ALI KHAN.
( 156 )
MOBARIK ALI, like Hyder Buksh, is a Kumboh Slieikh, and a Soonnee Mussulman. He is an inhabitant of Meerut, fifty-nine years of age, and of average height. His title or appellation of "Khan" does not belong to his tribe, and was probably gained by a member of his family under the Mahomedan empire, when Khan was the lowest order of created nobility. The supposed origin of this tribe has been explained already, vide 155, and the present subject calls for no particular remark.
