that the well has boen in us© siriceTpast seven years and people
have been talcing water from it and he has not mad© any protest
against its existence in the past and that it is only now that
■' ■ ■■ ■ t ' ■ • C: M
h© has protested about its that the godown is in reality
situated within the limits of Shaikh Said’s territory and that
what he fcas don® are things quit© 'lip.own and nothing of it is
hidden.I have further said.to him that I do not like that such
things should be don© by him against Sahikh Said bin Hamad and
kcvvQaJU
that he should paa^po^e a friendly policy towards Shaikh Said
was. that if he follows my advice he should satisfy Shaikh Said
by giving him some compensation that I cannot send any
Shara* official without making reference to your Honour first on
the subject. The reason is that no Shara’ official agrees to $©
to Puja l rah. One thing,however,could *b© done and that is that
Shaikh Hamad bin Abdullah should ±k visit in person or to send am
attorney to represent him to any of the Trucial towns such as
Umm-ul-Qaiwain, A.lman-or Debai where Shaikh Said must also appear
and then to present themselves themoolvoo before a Shara’ Law
Court and to agree to any decision given in the case.
Shaikh Hamad bin Abdullah’s demand for a Shara* official
to. visit Puja^irah is an excuse,as I think it to be,b©cause nb
Shara* officialfever visit Fujairah neither he,himself,will go
nf
Shy-where for judicature.
I understand that Shaikh Hamad
'bin Abdullah has prevented.his subject from keeping up
now
communication with Kalabah and he/alma-eit fighting Shaikh Said -
bin Hamad and the latter Shaikh has also prepared himself to
meet him. Whatever that will com© off will be duly reported
to you for your information*
