I HAVE the honor to inform you that a boat arrived yesterday coming from
Kuteef, having left on Thursday evening. Some three hours previous to her
sailing a steamer, Nanawa hy name, flying a Turkish flag, arrived crowded with
troops from Busreh.
Dsau bin Ali is coming off to-day to pay me a visit, and I have to complain
that a Turkish steamer anchored off some part of the west coast of Bahrein,
watered ship and took observations of position; was there 24 hours, and left
again for Kuteef from whence she came.
There is no pet of hostility I take it in landing on the coast of a neutral
l0r To u woul(i have beei1 pourteous to have asked permission hut that
