In 1771 C.E. Dadibhai Noshirwanji Dadyseth (q.v.) established an agiary (see ?taškada) with an ?dar?n fire (q.v.) for the sake of the soul of his first wife, Kunverbai, in the Fort district of Bombay. The fire was tended with Shenshahi rites by Bhagaria (q.v.) priests from Navsari (Vatcha, I, p. 309). Dadyseth having subsequently become a Kadmi, his son Ardashir after his father’s death built a finer temple on adjacent land and had the fire installed there, with Kadmi rites, on the day of Sar?š, month of Farvard?n, 1173 Yazdegerd?/25 September 1803.
