^rom - The Residency -^gent, Shargah,
To - The Hon’ble the Political Resident, Persian Gulf,
No.395. Dated 17th November 1925.
A.C.
I have the honour to submit, in original, a letter
written to me by Shaikh Muhammad bin Sultan, the Shaikh
of ^rairni, stating that the Khorusi ^mam al Harithi has
gohe to his district to take his towns and to bring them
under his rule and that the said Shaikh (of Bpaimi) and
his dependents are going to fight the raider.
According to what 1 have heard the raiders are
coming to that district with a great number of men that
the chiefs consist of Khorusi, Hamiyar and Isa bin Saleh
Al-Harithi; that they have occupied two towns named Bait-
ul-Ainain and Driz and they are at present besieging a
town called Ibri which is not far away from Braimi; it is
only a day and half a day’s march distant from that place.
Muhammad bin Sultan, the Shaikh of Braimi, I hear,
has sent letters to Bedouins such as the Beni Ka’ab, Beni
Katab, the Shaikhs of D e bai, Shargah, Ajman, Umm-ul-Qaiwain
and Ras-ul-Khaimah informing them of onset of the Shaikhs
mentioned in the preceding paragraph and their objectives.
The Shaikhs(addressed to)have not done anything nor they
have replied to the Shaikh of Baraimi. But the current
rumour is that the two Bedouin tribes shall assist the
Shaikh of Baraimi to fight the Khorusi and those with him
should they try to occupy Baraimi. Whatever there may
happen later on, same shall be communicated to you in
due time.
Letter dated 27th Rabi-al-Thani 1344(14-11-25), from Shaikh
Muhammad bin Sultan Ahmud, Chief of Baraimi, to K.B.Isa,
Residency Agent, Shargah,
A.C.
