H© had little to say# which was fortunate# as he
was rather short of breath. However, he was able to sk f or

medical comforts.
The Sheikh was saluted on leaving and I landed
shortly afterwards to return his call.
One of the party to receive me was a former :heikh of
Ras al haimah, the present ruler’s elder brother. He was
quite friendly but took no part in the convursati n.
This man had Just returned from Sharjah whither
he had accompanied Hussein from Raa al Khaimah et the
conclusion of Hussein’s mission with the ultimatum.
(I subsequently heard from Hussein that the
fheikh of Has al Thaimah had asked his brother to go to
i.harjah to sound that Sheikh regarding any desire he might
have to own Turib. Apparently the Sheikh of Sharjah was
not told of the reference to himself which had been made
in the ultiiautum referx»ed to above# and Ras al 'haimih s
brother got little change out of the interview.
On the day under report# the brother had stopped
at Umra al Q&iwaln on his ^ay back to Ras al haimah).
