No. 6 i-j da ted the 26 th Ja nua ry
To H.E. Shaikh ^hnad 1-Jabir aa-3u'bah,G. I .E.,Ruler of Kuwait.
A.G.
' I have the honour to acknowledge the receipt of your
letter of to-day*s date relative to the property raided by Itn
Hallaf.
I presume that Umm HaJam, which you mention as having been
raided on the T Hh Muharram, is the same place as Umm Huwaisat
in the Shiqaq. If so, I was not aware that Ibn Hallaf was
responsible for this raid, as Y.E. told me on the Hth Muharram
that you thought the raiders were of the Afnan section of the
Dhafir, and the same was the indipendent opinion of the
Divisional Adviser, Basrah, bo far as I am aware the Afnan are
under bhaikh huzza' bin ’Aqqab and are not in any way connected
with Ibn Hallaf.
I think that H.E. the High Commissioner must also be of
this opinion, as, in his letter to me on the subject to which
I referred in my letter No. 55 of the 23rd instant, he only
referred to the raid at Zaqiah on the l 7 th Cafar.
If, therefore, Ibn Hallaf was responsible for the former
raid^as well as that at Zaqiah, I shall be grateful if Y.E. ,
will give me further particulars so that I can inform H.E. and
urge your claim for the recovery of your property.
