are brothers of His Highness. It may be added, that
the heir-apparent also gets a salute,
o. As regards salutes from a British Government
vessel, if his Highness is in residence, no salute is
given to the State Council or to individual ministers.
In the Sultan*s absence, the President of the Council,
or two or more Ministers collectively,would, at the
conclusion of an official visit on board, receive a
Salute. The possibility of a single Haslr representing
the State on official business is very remote. That Mr.
Thomas should not be the minister in question can be
definitely safeguarded against.

Sultan's request may be agreed to.
