Maskat—Sultan was at Semiiil with one hundred of the Al-
Wahibah at the time—they set scouts to watch his move
ments. These having returned and informed them that
Hamed would pass the night at RIvva, Sultan moved with
them from Semail. When Humed reached Eiwa he encamped
Avith his attendants near the well of the Sarhanj, and was
followed by Sultan and his party, who put up near the fort
which Hdmed had built, but neither Hamed nor any of his
