CCPY
219/1/49 MaSFUT
The Sultan on the 27th March
complained that a Shaikh Rashid of iijnam
was making a nuisance of himself and requested
that he should be asked to stop interfering
with the Sultan's tribes. He jfcated that
Shaikh Rashid was endeavouring to establish
himself in Masfut. Shaikh Rashid actually
told me when I visited him in February that
the Naim of this place had acknowledged him as
their Sheikh but the Sultan says this is not
the case. In any case if Masfut is within
the territory which we recognise as belonging
to the Sultan Shaikh Rashid should I think
be warned that he must not interfere there
without the Sultan's permission.
