articles of furniture.

relatives and made them an adequate allowance for their
maintenance during his lifetime.
He also rewarded the slaves of Seif-bin-Sultan who had
warned him to return to the shore when he went in his
boat to visit their master. From that time forward he
never saw Seif-bin-Sultan.
He also rewarded the el-Jibiir most handsomely, on his
accession to the government, for having abandoned Seif-
bin-Sultan and sided with him; and he further contracted
friendly alliances with them.
Before he was confirmed in the government he went to
Nezwa, where he was hospitably entertained by the sheikh
Salih-bin-Sabahiyyah. On his accession to power he amply
rewarded the sheikh by making him chief over the inhabit
ants of the Wadi A seasonal or intermittent watercourse, or the valley in which it flows. -Nezwa.
He bountifully rewarded the woman in whose house he
hid himself at Yankal, and which he quitted in safety on
her telling him that Belarab -bin-Himyar had left the place.
Before he attained to supreme power he went one day
from 'Oman to Semiiil, where he had some business to
transact. When near the Wadi A seasonal or intermittent watercourse, or the valley in which it flows. -Halfain the sun so over
powered him that he took shelter under a large tree. On a
subsequent occasion, after he had assumed the reins ot
government, he started from er-Rastak to go to ISezwa,
having with him a large retinue of slaves and freemen.
