SA^ID-BIN-SULTAN.

Said and Bcdr-bin-Seif, the cause of which was as follows:
Bedr wished to remove the Belooches of Mullah-el-Hajj
from the AV^ estern fort and to substitute the Belooches of Jamma
in their stead j but his nephews and the daughter of the Imam
would not agree to the arrangement. Thereupon he went to
Barkah and garrisoned the fort with Wahhabis, giving the
command to Suleiman-bin-Seif-bin-Said, ez-Zamily. One day

him from the attempt. This incident embittered the es

Subsequently Bedr proposed to the Seyyid [Said] that
they should make war upon their uncle Kais, on the ground
that he had wronged them by taking the fort of el-Khabu-
rah, urging that unless he was made to restore it he would
