come with a hostile intent, on account of Muhammad-bin-
Nasir; but perceiving that Sirhan was most deferential in
his manner, and made no allusion to Muhammad, he received
him with all courtesy, and dismissed him with a shower of
attentions. Thereupon the Seyyid and his force moved with
Muhammad-bin-Nasir to Semail, the fort of which the latter
was obliged to surrender to him. When the Seyyidah, the
daughter of the Imam, heard of Muhammad^s seizure by her

his servants to bring up the animals, and on mounting his
