]Nur Muhammad Ehan on the other hand at once settled down to his old
games, and put Kal Ismail in chains and bastinadoed him so severely that
some of his toes dropped off ; he also started to levy very heavy Eahdari on
caravans. This however proved too much for the Persian authorities, and
instructions were issued for his dismissal, which he refused to obey assuming a
most truculent attitude and making preparations to resist any force sent to
evict him. At the request of the local authorities a column of South Persia
Rifles, under the command of Captain P. G. Villiers-Stuart, was therefore
detailed to move on Daliki from Eazerun and remove Nur M uhammad The
column left Kazerun on the 18th May and by 4-30 a. m . on the 2i8t had
completely surrounded Daliki. A messenger was then sent to Nur Muhammad

subsequently discovered that His Excellency never paid it into the Bank and

security was a farce and m point of fact Sheikh Mohamed has not behaved
very well, having oppressed and harried his uncle Sheikh Abdullai who was
installed as ^ban during the Bushire operations, and who was given the
iljage of Abu Tawil on Sheikh Mahomed's return. Sheikh Abdulla himself
however was not altogether free from blame.
