I beg to inform you tbout &n incident which wes
brought about by those mischiefm^kers who htd no ri^ht to
do it. It is this: when I wes spying the evening preyers
in the month of RemEzen which is the time ^or worship those
♦
people, who numbered 10, went to the door of the fort,
entered it, fought;cEused much bloodshed End killed 7
persons including e womEn while none of them v/es wounded.
Then ShEikh KhEled ben /hmEd cEne End then the Residency
i.gent who Esked them to be quiet. But they did not do this
End this mischief lested 4 days, on the 5th dEy, 1st
h ewwe1 , they were tightly pressed End wished to come down
End asked for sEfe conduct by is e ben Abdul LEtif, the
Government Agent. They came down on IsE f s sEfe conduct tnd
the mischiefmakers Ere with the Agent now. I do not wEnt
them to remain there long becEuse they creEted much mis
chief, shed the blood of the people End ruined the town,
End I request you to expel them from our plEces on Eccount
of this mischief.
