open it, which they did. When Sultan and his force had
passed through, the former turned to 'Aly-bin-'Abdallah
and said : " May God reprobate you, you traitor ! Begone !
for I shall not leave you in charge of the gate." After Sultan
had thus dismissed him, he appointed Sirhan-bin-Suleiman,
el-Jabry, and one hundred of the Benu-Jabir to hold the
post. Marching from thence with the remainder of his fol

small eastern gate which faces the shops of the goldsmiths
Muhammad-bin-Habib, er-Ramhy, and 'Abd-el-GhafFur, the
Sahib of the el-Harth, driving away those who held it, and
forthwith his men opened fire upon the Western fort, which
the garrison returned with cannon and musketry. Then
Muhammad-bin-Khalfan went with his party and dislodged
Ahmed and 'Aly-bin-HilaPs men who were posted on the
'Akabahs of Killabuh and Riyam. At this time Ahmed-bin-
Said occupied the Eastern and 'Aly-bin-Hilal the Western
fort, but Sultan having succeeded in capturing all the other
defences of Maskat the merchants and notables waited upon
him on the Island to congratulate him. Then my father
went to Sidab to purchase one thousand bales of dates for
Sultanas army, and Sultan placed him in the custom-house
to serve out rations of dates and rice, and supplies of lead
and gunpowder to his soldiers. Most of the inhabitants of
Maskat, however, fled from the place to escape the shot from
the two forts. The ships, also, and the two batteries were
surrendered to Sultan. Muhammad-bin-Khalfan was of
great service to Sultan at this time, aiding him with men
and money.
Sultan then wrote to his brother Kais, the son of the
Imam Ahmed, as follows: "I have taken Maskat, intending
to make it over to you. Therefore, when this letter reaches
you march with all the forces at your disposal and encamp
at el-Kasim, and prevent our brother Said from coming to
Maskat." Kais followed out these instructions, and wrote
