ON SLAVE TRADE (EAST COAST OF AFRICA). 1 gracious to them), and shall perform in his stead in such prilgrimage and visitation «1^ proper duties and ceremonies, and whatever God has ordained as well-pleasing (to Hik-^ the remuneration for this is to be defrayed from his property, after his death, at the disdt^^ tion of his executors. And whatever arms or weapons of war he possesses he bequeath^ to his male children. And his two ships, the “ Feidh Alim " and Caroline,” he giv^ after his death, as a legacy to the treasury of the Mussulmans. And whatever other ships he possesses, besides those two ships, are to be sold after his death, and their value to be divided among all his lieirs, according to what God has ordained in His law, to each one his share of the inheritance. And the said Syud Saeed declares to be free all the male and female slaves which shall remain in his possession after his death, excepting’those who are at his plantation, for the sake of Almighty God, and in hope of His mercy. And he bequeaths to each one of them whatever each may possess, it is to be theirs. And he bequeaths to every Abyssinian male or female slave 50 dollars, out of his property, after his death. And to each of his concubines 100 dollars out of his property after his death, and whatever she may possess, it is to be hers. And the said Syud Saeed has constituted all his houses at Bunder Muscat, and all which are at Bunder Zanzibar, and at the Watiyyah, an endowment for ever to his heirs collectively as a bequest from him. The said Syud Saeed bequeaths whatever shall remain of his apparel, after his death, to his male children. And he has forbidden the sale of whatever furniture or utensils his houses may contain; but they are to be divided among his heirs, according to what God has ordained in His law, to each one his share of the inheritance. And the said Syud Saeed has appointed his wife, the daughter of Seif bin Ali, and his nephew, Mahomed bin Salem bin Sultan, and his son Khaled bin Saeed, his executors in regard to whatever he may possess or owe; he appoints them his executors therein to execute this will which he has willed. And he confirms all that he has directed to be placed to his account, and directs that it be done and carried into effect out of his property, after his death, whether the same be obligatory upon him or not. He has made it obligatory upon himself hoping that his executors will duly execute the same, and that his heirs will be satisfied therewith. God is the witness over all. Done on Monday the 26th day of Bamadhan of the months of the year of the Hegira of the Prophet 1266, and written for him, at his direction, by the hand of his servant, the poor towmrds God, Saeed bin Nasir bin Khalf, il iVIaooly. The following, in the Original, is in the Handwriting of the late Syud Saeed, the Testator. What is written in this will is true, and it was (written) of my own free will, and in my sight. This is written by the hand of the vile Saeed. Codicil.—And I bequeath to the liberated slaves, Georgians and Abyssinians, who have no children, or whose children are not grown up, as also to the Abyssinians, eunuchs, the produce of the plantation of Showein ; all its proceeds are for their subsistence, except the female slaves who may marry, such are to have nothing ; and if any shall separate from their husbands, those are not to have anything. Salam. Written by the vile Saeed, with his own hand. Codicil. The male slaves at the plantation of Showein are also to share in the plantation for their subsistence. True translation. (signed) George Percy Badger. Appendix (D.) Translation of a Letter from Syud Toorkee to Syud Thoweynee. A. C. Under your auspices there is nothing but good to report of these parts. We pray God to continue the same. Furthermore, brother, a letter has reached us from the consul of Bushire regarding the affair which has taken place against the Shehiyeen whilst we were at the village of Mijiz of the A1 Waheeba. I have already informed you, brother, of the act done by the Naeem * of Kabil. They were not subjects, so that I could not restrain them. They came to me of their good will. Now, it is for you to decide, for you are the father, and I am like your son Salem, and you can restrain all. The fact is not hMden from anyone that the act complained of was committed by the people of the £dh-Dhahara [subject to the Wahabee Ameer], We cherish the best thoughts of you, and whatever you may require, a hint will suffice. Be in safety, peace, 8 Bebia el Avvwal, 1275, True translation. (signed) George Percy Badger. * Naeem is a tribe subject to Fysul bin Saood, the Wahabee Ameer. They were in the service of Syud Toorkee until very lately, when the Wahabees left him, or were dismissed. 0.116. T
