noon. Muhenna remained on the Island, and posted some
of his men on the heights overlooking the 'Akabat-es-Sahim,
with orders to keep up a constant fire from their muskets
during the night. The Benu-Jabir and the Beuu-'l-Musib
also cooperated with Muhenna, who had now charge of all

monthly, and to allow him to retain the forts which he had
captured, if he would desist from hostilities against his
nephews. (Kais, as stated above, had seized the forts of es-
Sib and el-Khaburah.) The Seyyid replied to the following

only alternative is war." On the receipt of this commu
