Mahomed bin Khaleefa establishes himself on the Guttur
Coast, whose inhabitants are well inclined towards him, and
keeps open the communication with his colleagues.
The Wahabee ruler endeavours to mediate between the par
ties, but without effect. He releases Shafee, who promises
to use his influence towards a reconciliation. The Uttoobee
Chief unwisely uses threatening language to the Wahabee
ruler, to induce his observance of perfect neutrality.
Mahomed bin Khaleefa prosecutes his successful operations
on the main land.
A piracy is committed upon a boat carrying British colours,
in the harbour of Munama, by the immediate dependents
of Abdoolla bin Ahmed.
Mahomed bin Khaleefa lands with a force on the island, and
shortly obtains possession of Munama, which offers no

some of the Huwajir and Suloota Tribes.
The forces of the colleagues join from Kenn. They attack
Muharag, defeat the troops of Abdoolla bin Ahmed, and
compel him to take refuge in a small fort, close to the town.
Abdoolla bin Ahmed surrenders at discretion, and is
allowed to leave the island, with his personal property and
followers. His sons are permitted to remain.
Abdoolla bin Ahmed proceeds to Damaum, the only place
now left acknowledging his authority, held by his eldest
son, Moobaruk.
Abdoolla bin Ahmed annoys the trade of Bahrein. The
colleagues in consequence blockade Damaum.
Both parties make overtures to the Wahabee ruler.
Shaikh Jaubir, of Koweit, proceeds with his fleet to Bahrein,
with a view to mediate a peace between the contending
chieftains, but fails in his object.
Mahomed and Ali, the sons of Abdoolla bin Ahmed, and Hajee
Bushab his Vizier, are made prisoners by the Governor of
Kateef, who places them at the disposal of the Wahabee
ruler.
Abdoolla bin Ahmed endeavours to engage the assistance of
the Chiefs of Ras-ool-Khyma, Shargah, and Debaye, who
refer him to the Resident for his permission. The ex-chief
