xc INTRODUCTION
Ham (id's proceedings generally to the hnglisli autliorities,
" in violation of the treaty whicli lie liad made with him
through their intervention/' the latter left him at perfect
liberty to deal with the offender as he pleased. He there
upon directed his son Thuwainy to move against him, and
Thuwainy eventually seized him on the shore near Shinas,
" after a series of efforts too long to be narrated, writes
our annalist, (but, according to the English account, by a
