no objection, please act accordingly. It may not be feasible for

2. X beg to inform you that I wrote to the Sheikh of
Fujairah advising him to turn out Mirza bin Barakat and his gang
including his family. The Shaikh of Fujairah arrived at Dubai
yesterday morning. Before his arrival he sent me a special
messenger from the desert who reached me before his arrival at Dub
ai with a verbal message that since Mirza bin Barakat returned to
Fujairah the Shaikh had been pressing him to leave with his family
but he was putting off on the pretence that he was waiting to get
a boat. That when the Shaikh received my letter Mirza was actuall;
leaving Fujairah. I went to Dubai and saw the Shaikh of Fujairah
He c'' n *‘irraed what his messenger had said to me and added that
Mirza had sent some of his servants to the Makr^r Coast and that
he and his family all left Fujairah, with all their luggage, five
days ago and went to Kalba. aIiq Shaikh then described the diffi
culty he experienced in driving him out of Fujairah and added that
his utmost desire was to do everything in his power to please the
High Government and to co-operate with them in every way possible.
I thanked the Shaikh very much for his attitude,
3 , As I have already warned Shaikh Khalid, Regent of Kalba,
about Mirza bin Barakat and his gang and he promised not to allow
any of them to live in his territory, I went saw him (he is now in
Dubai) at once and informed him that 1 have received a report
to the effect that Mirza and his family went to Kalba and settled
there. 1 did not of course inform him that the Shaikh of 'ujairah
had. said that but as though the information reached me from a
different parson. Shaikh Khalid said that according to a messenger
who had just arrived, Mirsa and his family crossed Khatam Malaha
towards Muscat territory. He assured me that he would not alio*
him to live in any part of Kalba. I thanked Khalid also j-or nis
promise to co-operate in
