The Wahabee Chief, incensed against Shaikh Ramah bin
Jaubir, for having taken part with the Imaum of Muskat,
directs his property and family to be seized and brought

Seventeen Indian women, captured by the pirates of Ras-ool-
Khyma, are restored to liberty, by the Bahrein Chiefs
releasing a number of Joasmee prisoners in exchange, at
the instance of Captain Lock, of His Majesty's vessel
Eden, on that ship visiting the island, accompanied by
five other vessels of war, for the purpose of inquiring into
the report that several Indian women had been brought
from Ras-ool-Khyma, and publicly sold in the bazar at
Bahrein, which proved unfounded.
Ramah bin Jaubir is informed by the British authority that
his vessels would not be permitted to leave Kateef to cruise
against the people of Bahrein, unless acting with an
authorised State, in regular warfare.
He proceeds with his three vessels to Bushire, in order to
co-operate in an expedition projected against Bahrein

is wrecked on the Berdistan Shoal, and he
and his people escape with great difficulty with their lives.
Ramah bin Jaubir refuses to become a member of the Ge
neral Treaty, under the plea of his being the servant of the
Persian Government. The Governor of Bushire engaging
to be responsible for his future peaceable conduct, the
excuse is admitted.
After the capture of Ras-ool-Khyma by the British expedition,
the Shaikh of Bahrein delivers up the vessels belonging to
the piratical powers, which were in his harbour.
The General Treaty is first signed at Ras-ool-Khyma by the
Vukeel of the Uttoobee Shaikhs, and subsequently by
themselves in Bahrein.
