expelling Muktoom's sons from Debaye. The measures he adopted
were crowned with success : Soheil and Husher were compelled to quit
the place, and to flee for protection to Shaikh Sultan bin Suggur.
Such was the posture of affairs when Syud bin Butye returned to his
seat at Debaye. He perceived at a glance the enormity of the evil
existing; he saw how much it was likely to increase, now that the
Joasmee had mixed himself up in the quarrel. Nor was he mis-
taken. Shaikh Sultan was busy intriguing in every manner and
shape : he had already induced one Syud bin Maanaul Moheyree, by
tempting offers in gold, to quit Debaye with his tribe, and to go and
settle at Shargah ; and it is difficult to say how matters would have
ended had not Syud bin Butye made advances to Shaikh Syud bin
Tahnoon that resulted in an alliance, offensive and defensive, between
the two chiefs, who were likewise joined by the Shaikh of Amulgavine,
thereby forming a coalition too strong for the Joasmee to dream of
opposing it.
Nothing of importance connected with this tribe occurred from this
a. d . 1853. period un1il the s P rin g of 1B58, when Captain
Kemball proceeded on a tour of the Gulf, for the
purpose of arranging matters connected with the Perpetual Treaty of
Peace 1 * to be entered into by the maritime chiefs. It is not unworthy of
notiee that Shaikh Syud bin Butye alone of their number failed to wait
upon Abdoolla bin Fysul on the occasion of his arrival at Brymee with
a Nujdee Force,!—he only remained at his post; and from the tenor of
a conversation held by him with the Resident on board the Honorable
Company's sloop of war Ctive, off the port of Shargah, may be gathered
how extremely averse he was, or affected to be, to the presence of a
Wahabee force in the province of Oman.
From the promptitude displayed by Shaikh Syud bin Butye in re
pressing maritime irregularities whensoever committed by his depend
ents, and from the readiness he showed to subscribe to the new treaty of
peace, it is plain that he was anxious to cultivate the good will and
friendship of the British Government in the same degree as had been
done by Shaikh Muktoom, his brother, before him.

t Syud bin Butye deputed his maternal uncle to Brymee, in his stead.
