Bint. Said Khan put him into the farm of Bint and the
smaller ports.
In 1907, the Persian Governor, Wali Khan, threw up the
Governorship and returned to Kerman. The kotwals of

got back to Kerman. For his services Said Khan was
given the title of Deputy Governor of Baluchistan. This

never exercised any more authority than he had done pre-
viously. That is, he merely controlled the Bampur end of
the Bampur valley, Qasrqand, Geh, Bint and the small
ports, while Bahrain Khan, who had held on to Sarbaz and
.bahreh, was becoming more powerful owing to his famiVs
annexations in Dizak.
