looked right and left to discover from whence the voice pro
ceeded, but could see no one. This circumstance also he
kept a profound secret.
Again, while travelling on his she-camel from ^Oman to
wards the town of Semiiil, night overtook him nearNejd-es-
Sahamah, and perceiving some one standing before him in
the road, he accosted him with the salutation of peace. The
reply was : "Peace be upon you also, O Imam oPOman." He

The following are some instances of Ahmed-bin-Said's
generous qualities :—
On succeeding to the government he treated my grand
father, Razik-bin-Bakhit, with unbounded liberality, on ac
count of the warning which he had given him. This gener

bin-Razik, until the day of his death. He confirmed my
grandfather in the office of Clerk of the Customs, the ap

the death of my grandfather he appointed my father in his
room. The document which he gave to my father on the
occasion was as follows :—
" In the name of God, the pitiful, the merciful ! From
Ahmed-bin-Said, Imam of the Muslims, to all my children
specially, and to all men in general, to wit: After my de

of him, as I have left him, in charge of the Customs'
accounts, and ye shall pay him as I have paid him, accord
ing to the agreement entered in the public records. Ye
shall also be kind to him as I have been. Whosoever shall
contravene what is here written after it has been made
known to him shall be adjudged guilty. God is the hearer
and the knowing." This document was dated the 28th
of Rabia-el-Awwal, a.h . 1160 [27th April, 1747]. On
the demise of my grandfather, Ahmed-bin-Said appointed
