the I'aheri port and a Persian subject took advantage of ths
opportunity and annexed Bahrein to his own jurisdiction, After
the rise of Nadir Shah, L'iraa Taghi Khan, the Governor of Fare,
captured Bahrein from the sheikh of Jabbareh and annexed it to
Shira* (1150). In the year 1151 r>aif-ibn-'lultan who was still
unaware of the power of Nadir Shah captured Bahrein and made a

rendered by 'heikh Ghais and Sheikh Saar who were governors of
Bushire entrusted Bahrein to them and for & long time Bahrein
was annexed to Bushire and under the rule of Al Maskoor, and a
regiment of soldiers was always garrisoned there. In the year

Morad Khan Kand, as Persia was in an abnormal condition, the
Bani Atabeh, who are the present Sheikhs, availed themselves of
the opportunity and captured the island from Al Maakoor, they
dispersed the Government troops and drove them out, but as soon
as Persia revived the Bani Atabeh expressed their allegiance to
the Persian Government and agreed to accept the same responsibil
ity as Al Maakoor had.

Persian Government which I can remember is that in the time of
Abdo 11a-ibn-Ahmed who was a contemporary of Path Ali Shah, a
certain Nskan&ar Khan went to Bahrein detailed by the ^overnor ft
General of Pars to collect revenue^ and present's wrote a letter
