UTTOOBEES.
given them great offence, which has not been diminished by the cir
cumstance of Busheer having been joined by the larger portion of the
Aboosemate Tribe, between which and the Uttoobees a most inveterate
feud still subsists.
FURTHER CONTINUATION OF THE PRECEDING, 'to
THE YEAR 1844,
BY LIEUTENANT A. B. KEMBALL.
We learn from the termination of Captain Hennell's Sketche?, that
the establishment of Busheer, the son of Rahmah bin Jaubir, at
Demaum, through the influence of the Wahabee Chief and the Imaum
of Muskat, had given great offence to the Uttoobee?, which was aggra
vated by the accession to the number of that chief's dependents of the
larger portion of the Aboosemate Tribe, with whom they (the Uttoobees)
were at feud. The views of the patrons of Busheer appear to have
been,—of the former, that his proximity to Bahrein would act as a check
to the Uttoobees, and lead to the more punctual fulfilment of their
engagement to pay annual tribute ; of the latter, that he should have a
useful and devoted adherent in the event of his again undertaking the
attack of Bahrein.
The attempt (in January 1832) however failed, and Busheer having
quarrelled with the inhabitants of Kateef, des-
a, d. 1832. troyed the fort he had just built, and left with
his dependents for Muskat,—an event which was looked upon with
the greatest satisfaction by the authorities in the Gulf, as removing one
cause of continued disputes and misunderstandings in these quarters.
The piracy of a trifling nature, as having been unattended with any
aggravated circumstances, committed in November 1831, in Hallilah Bay,
by a person named Hussoom of Fowarah (a dependency of Bahrein), on
a fishing-boat belonging to Congoon, was now traced. The boat was
recovered, and subsequently restored to its owners, and the pirate
denied refuge on the Arabian Coasf. It appeared that, on leaving
Hallilah Bay, Hussoom proceeded to Ajeer, where he attempted to sur
prise a Bahrein boat, but the crew being upon their guard, he was taken
prisoner, together with eight of his people. After a detention of several
days in Ajeer, the prisoners contrived to effect their escape, and pro
ceeded to Huailah, where the captured boat was recovered from the
pirate, and he with his people refused admittance into that or any other
1 port of the Bahrein dominions.
