Then sheikh Muhamraad-bin-Nasir, el-Jabry, came from
ezh-Zhahirah with a force of Hadhr and Arabs, amounting 1 ,
according to the best authorities, to twelve thousand men,
under the command of the sheikh Hamid-bin-Nasir, el-
Ghafiry, and encamped with them at Nuaman. The Seyyid
Said went out to see them, and they engaged to join him
against his uncle. He accordingly accompanied them to
es-Sib and invested its fort, and then opened fire upon it with
a gun brought in a ship from Barkah. When they had de
molished one side of the fort, the garrison capitulated, sur
rendering the fort to the Seyyid Said, who thereupon left
it in charge of one of his officers. There was an enclosure
at es-Sib belonging to the Benu-Haya, from which they
began to open a musketry fire upon Hamid-bin-Nasir's
men. Refusing to obey the Seyjdd Said's order to desist,
ho permitted the ezh-Zhawahir to attack them, which they
accordingly did, scaling the walls, and then putting to
death all who were within. Old and young they numbered
seventy persons.

number of the Benu-'Ammah, the el-Habiish, and others.
Seeing himself surrounded on all sides, Nasir asked for
quarter, offering to surrender the fort. He accordingly
made it over, through Sirhan-bin-Suleiman, his garrison
leaving it without their arms; and the Seyyid Said-bin-
Sultan, after placing it in charge of the sheikh Muhammad-
bin-Nasir, el-Jabry, returned with his force to es-Sib.
