(b) The disorders at Dilbar reported^in paragraph V (b)
of my last summary apnear to have arisen from tne ^act
that Hussein Aali married the daughter of Hussain Rustam
of Dilbar. The girl was wanted by Chahpiri for his
son, but she had refused to marry him. ^The details of
Sargurd Nuri’s arbitration award (which is said to have
enriched him by 5000 tomans) are reported to be that the
girl should remain as the wife of Hussein Aali; that
Hussein Aali should leave the place Nargis-zar (thrae
miles from Dilbar) which is the property of his wife
cnd stay at Eolol; and that Chahpiri’s men should
e acuate Dilbar and return to Ahram, and should not
d i .age the fort and other buildings at Nargiszar.
Husain Namju and Hussein Aali agreed and returned to
their villages; but no sooner had Sargurd Nuri returned
to Bushire than Rais Ali Chahpiri’s men returned to
Nargiszar and destroyed the fort.
(c) It is also reported that Sarwan^Shadrawan (Officer
Commanding Gendarmerie, now at Daiyir) offered to
appoint Ali Ismail as Kadkhuda of Daiyir* He at first
agreed. but his brother Mohammad Ismail warned him not
to accept, as it might be a trick to secure his arrest.
A Ismail has consequently refused the appointment.
(d) Reference paragraph V (c) of my last summary, it
is now reported that the murder of Sgt. Baharlu of the
Gendarmerie was brought about by the intrigues of Darab
Kh? n Mansuri himself.
(e) e*asim Ewaz, the nephew of Rais Ali CHnhpiri, murdered
one Beyed Ali Sahimi at Ahram. The next morning,
Chahpiri collected all the murdered man’s household
goods.
(f) Chahpiri’s men at Aali-changi are reported to be
collecting a fee of Rial 1 per camel and 50 dinars (half
a rial) per donkey by way of "road tax".
