T beg to forward herewith for your information the
answer received by n© 1 ron the Shaikh of Unn-ul—Qaiwain
and also a copy of my letter to him. The c haikh f s letter
disagrees with what I arranged with him before in writing.
I D eg to bring to your notice that the Shaikh of Umm-
ul-Oaiwain is evading settlement of Shaikh Fasir's claims
against the men of Umm-ul-Oaiwain and maintains an un
friendly attitude towards Shaikh Hasir.
As this case has remained unsettled.as Shaikh Fasir's
right is proved,and as there is nothing higher than swear
ing,! venture to suggest that the Rs.5,000 attached with
me nay be paid to Shaikh Naser.
There is no don iH or hesitation about Shaikh Fas ir f s
claims against some of the men of Fmn-ul-Oaiwain.
