Letter dated Safar 1347 (July-August 1928) from Shaikh
Hamad hin Ahdullah, Shaikh of Fujaira, to the Hesidency
Agent, Shargah.
I a
A.C.
I heg to state that on Thursday the 22nd Safar (9-8-28)
two men of Naqhiyin raided and killed a man at the town of
Safad about which I informed 2 months ago. This case was
not settled by Shara and you promised that somebody would
come oh your behalf. The claim due from us to Shaikh Said
is pursued and those due to us are not pursued. I did not
make a present of Hs•500/- to Shaikh Hamad binlbranim and
Jlbdur Bahman bin Saif and it should be recovered. I have
forgiven as regards the slaves taken at Sur. Last year X
had dates and dates trees at Kalba but it was taken away.
There was some dates belonging to SaQ.ar bin Salih and some
belonging to the slaves and these were also taken away.
A sum of Its.70/- was due from Bin Hanifah since a long time
but this was seized by Said bin Hamad. It is unfair that
claims due from us be recovered and our claims are not
recovered. According to your order I deem it necessary to
- inform you of this case.
With regard to the father Abdullah bin Hamad. I could
not do anything and orders are with God and yourself. The
dates was taken after I had written to Sayid Taimur bin
Faisal, also the money. As regards Shaikhs Hamad bin Ibrahim
and Abdur, Sahman bin Saif; a letter was received from him
bearing his signature and seal. What you decide I do not
disobey.
