Translation of a letter addressed hy M. II. Laronce, French Consul at Muscat, to Shaikh Maktoom,
Chief of Dehai, dated Muscat, March 24, 1904.
(After compliments.)
I HAVE already informed you about the vessel belonging to Salim-bin-Mahomed-bin-Taeebj
who is under our protection, and the said person applied to me saying that he did not receive
from you justice according to the provisions of the Shariat, and did not really accept the
compromise made by you in the matter. Now the loss of the buggalow has been fully proved to
you, and the injustice which the man has received is obvious; and the Kazi's decision which the
oppressor was prevailed upon to accept was for a trifling sum, whereas the vessel was worth
2,000 dollars. 1 therefore now ask you to be good enough to let me know what measure of
justice you propose to dispense, and whether you are prepared to oblige the aggressor to pay the
value of the dhow which was wrecked. I request an early reply.
(Signed) H LARONCE.
The above is the translation of the original letter addressed by M. Laronce to the Shaikh of
Debai.

cannot yet relax the precautions which have been taken in past years for the prevention of slave
trading.
On the 5th instant Captain Baker-Baker, of His Majesty's ship "Terpsichore," the Senior
Naval Officer of this station, told me confidentially that he had received reliable information that
a dhow called the " Fath-el-Keir," sailing under French colours, which had arrived here from Sur
in the Persian Gulf on the 22nd ultimo, intended leaving the harbour the following evening. She
was then to anchor off a place called Bu-bu-bu, about seven miles north of the port, at which
place the nakoda, or captain, had previously arranged with some of the natives that he would call
and take on board their cocoanuts, so enabling them to evade the payment of duty. By holding
