THE IMAMS OF 'OMAN.
of you and his hankering after Maskat." He sent the letter
by one of his most intimate friends, and it reached Mnham-
mad-bin-Khalfan before Ahmed. When the latter arrived,
Muhammad imprisoned him in the hall of the Island, but
his attendants fled back to Azka. When they informed the
Imam of what Muhammad-bin-Khalfan had done to his son
Ahmed, his face changed colour and he said to his son
Hamed: "This is the result of your kind suggestion;
Muhammad-bin-Khalfan has imprisoned your brother and
bound him in the hall on the Island—an infamous outrage
on his part." His son Humed replied : "Father, I suggest
that we go to Maskat with one hundred men, not more, and
halt at Eiwa, and from thence I will go forward to Muham-
mad-bin-Khalfan and, God willing, will release Ahmed and
bring him to you." His father rejoined; " Hamed, is not one
enoughwithoutyour becoming another? Becauseyour brother
has fallen into the snare, do you wish to fall into it also?"
Hamed replied: "Father, be under no apprehension, and let
me have my own way in this matter;" adding much more to
the same effect. Thereupon Hamed sent a letter to Muham-
med-bin-Khalfan, in which he wrote: "When this my letter
reaches you, assemble the people of Maskat and el-Matrah,
together with your attendants and soldiers, and station your
self at Sih-el-Harmel, and on hearing that we have reached
Riwa send a letter by a messenger to my father, saying:
" if you wish your son to be liberated, let your son Hamed
come to me—I pledge his safety—and you and your followers
remain at Eiwa, for if you take one step in advance beyond
that, I will attack you with my horse and foot. Salam."
Accordingly, when the messenger with Hamed's letter
arrived, Muhammad collected together the people oi Mas
kat and el-Matrah—the fighting and non-fighting men—
also his soldiers and slaves, making in all a large force of
horse and foot, and encamped with them at Sih-el-Harmel.
When the Imam Said and his son 1 lamed and their
