THE IMAMS OF 'OMAN.
the Imam Self's return to Maskat he repaired thither to pay
his respects to him, and was treated with great considera
tion. The Imam then sent him to the country of el-Hasa
to transact some business for him, and he acquitted himself
so much to his satisfaction that he promoted him from one
rank to another, and eventually made him Wali of Sohar and
its dependencies.
Ahmed carried on the government entrusted to him with
justice and equity, and was exceedingly liberal to the inha

to him immediately. Ahmed obeyed at once, mounted his
camel, and set out accompanied by an attendant named
Saad. The Imam Seif-bin-Sultan was at Mdskat at this
time, and had ordered the officers of his slaves to seize
Ahmed on his arrival and imprison him in the Eastern fort.
(The house then occupied by the Imam was that which
