The Boo Felasa, shortly after their secession, commence
depredations upon the general trade of the Gulf. Sultan
bin Suggur disclaims any control or authority over
Debaye. The Shaikh of that place is called upon to make
reparation. It becomes necessary to resort to a demonstra
tion of force, and threats of coercive measures, to enforce
compliance with the requisitions.
Obed bin Subt, principal Chief of Debaye, dies, and supreme
and undivided authority devolves upon Muktoom bin
Butye.
The Beniyas Chief seizes the sea tower of Debaye, but is
shortly compelled to abandon it.
A Debaye boat commits a piracy upon one belonging to
Khaboorah. The Shaikh is compelled to make redress.
In consequence of some aggressions by his dependents upon
some boats belonging to the Beniyas, the Shaikh of Debaye
is called upon to pay a certain sum, and restore the
captured Buggarahs. Two shells are fired over his town
at a long interval, before he consents to accede to the
demand. In consequence of an epidemic, which attacks
his people and carries off a great number, the Shaikh of
Debaye temporarily abandons his town, and, with the
permission of the Joasmee Chief, builds a fort at Derah.
Five hundred of the Boo Muhair tribe secede from Deba V e to
Shargah. J
The Beniyas Chief takes advantage of the absence of its
inhabitants to attack Debaye, guarded only by a small
garrison. He does much injury to the date groves, gains
possession of the town and fort, plunders the market and
houses, and burns all the stores of dates, &c. as also a
Buteel belonging to Shaikh Muktoom. He quits before the
combined Debaye and Shargah forces can march against
im. He continues his depredations against them inland,
greatly harassing them, and constraining them to keep
incessantly on the alert.
Shaikh Muktoom is victorious against the Beni Ghuflah
Bedouin tribes, but receives eight wounds, one of which
causes him the loss of an eye.
