Correspondence concerning an attack on Dhofar by the Kathiri tribe. The attack was sparked off by the imprisonment of a tribesman for evading the Sultan's tax on frankincense.

The Chiefs of the Shaikhs of the Al Kathir refused to meet the Political Agent on board the man-of-war Brisk but offered to meet on shore or in the town.
