should pay an annual tribute to the Imam, and should not
molest the Mussulmans who repaired to Maskat. They con
sented to this also, and Mas^d did not leave until he had
received the tribute from them. These latter facts I give
on the trustworthy authority of several aged friends, among

They watched him as he was approaching Lawa, surrounded
him on all sides and then killed him, together with a number
of his followers, the remainder escaping. When the Imam
