Sir,

I have the honour to refer to the Resident's

confidential despatch Ho. 65 of the 22nd of March

regarding the succession to the Sultanate of L&hej, and to inform you that I agree generally with the viewa

expressed therein and the course of action proposed in

paragraph 13.

2. The proposed reply to the Multan of Lahej should, however, be modified in the following manner:-

(«.) he should be informed that "the contents of his letter are noted", instead of that

"the election has been noted", and

(b) the word "formal" should be omitted before

"recognition" in informing him that the

recognition of his successor must be deferred

until the latter's actual succession to the

Sultanate*

Colonel ^eilly, who has been consulted, agrees with these modifications*

I have the honour to be, * Sir,

Your most obedient,

humble servant,

opportunity of Col. Reilly’s presence in London to clear the

point up. As this is primarily a C.O. matter, it seemed best

to obtain their concurrence before making an enquiry of Col.

Reilly. I accordingly arranged with Sir D. Bray that I should

write d.o. to the C.O. in the sense of the letter of 6th

June below and, if they saw no objection, put the point to CoL

ReiHy. / A A c ^ ^ ^ ^ A

Col. Reilly came up to London yesterday, and he

and Hr. Cowell discussed this question with Hr. Laithwaite and

myself this morning.

Col. Reilly informed us that he had the point

regarding the importance of local custom prominently in

mind, as well as the other considerations, in thinking over

what action he should recommend in the peculiar circumstances.

He is satisfied that the election was duly and properly made

in a public manner by the electors, and that the majority of

them (the custom is to elect by a majority) are genuinely

in favour of the election and of the change of custom

entailed thereby; he takes^a

gram of salt CTfch the Sultan’s

statement that it was the electors themselves who initiated

the proposal of an election during the lifetime,

but he has no evidence to the contrary. The election by the

duly constituted electors is properly on record.

The attempted assassination, of course, indicated

the existence of some opposition; but this incident has had

the effect of weakening the opposition and rallying further

support to the party.

It will thus be seen that Col. Reilly is satisxied

on the main issue; he would see no objection, however, to

^ slightly modifying the proposed terms of his reply to the

Saltan by substituting a statement that the contents of the

Sultan’s letter are noted instead of the words H that the

election has been noted”; this change, small thou^i it

appears, gives an even more noncommittal ring to the proposed

reply, and goes further in the direction of avoiding any

implication that the Sultan’s account of the manner in which

the election was brought about is necessarily taken as

correct.

From what Sir D. Bray told me, I think that there is

no doubt that he would be satisfied by Col. Reilly’s account

of the matter, and by the small change of wording suggested

above.

The Air Ministry and F.O. have now concurred in the

letter might be approved with the addition suggested in the

P.z.2871/33. 1

Minute Paper. POLITICAL Department.

Please see the passages marked in the A

Intelligence summaries regarding the election as heir

apparent and attempted assassination of the eldest son

of the Sultan of Lahej.

As explained in the Resident’s despatch of 22nd

March enclosed with the C.O. letter the custom for many

years pa.st in regard to the succession to the Sultanate

has been that after the death of the reigning Sultan

his successor is elected by certain tribal Aqils and

Q,adhis and later recognised officially by the Resident

(unless there are cogent reasons for non-recognition).

As the result of an unsuccessful conspiracy in

1930 to remove the Sultan and arrange the succession of

a member of a rival branch of the ruling family. His *

Highness made tentative proposals to the Residency that he

should ensure continuity in the succession by 9

proclaiming his eldest son as heir apparent, but was

advised by Sir Stewart Symes not to do so.

In February of this year, however. His Highness

informed Colonel Reilly that an election had been held

and that Sultan Fadl has been unanimously elected as his

successor. The Resident was about to express

objection to this action which was taken without

consulting him when he heard ol the attempt on Suloan

Fadl’s life which made it impolitic for him to do so.

He therefore confined himself to asking the Sultan ot

Lahej for an explanation of his reasons for departing

from customary practice in regard to the succession. His

Highness replied that the intention was to guard against

strife and dissension in the event of his death.

Colonel Reilly sympathises with the Sultan and sees

considerable advantage in a settlement of the succession

during/

during his lifetime if it is loyally observed on his

death. His Highness is a capable ruler and perhaps the

most important of the Protectorate Chiefs and his

territories adjoin the settlement of Aden. On the other

hand Colonel Reilly does not recommend any departure on

our part from the existing procedure, since he considers

that recognition of a

pre-elected successor would seldom

be effective. He therefore proposes to inform the

Sultan that the election has been noted but that formal

recognition of his successor must be deferred until the

latter’s actual succession.

This is primarily a matter for the Colonial Offic

e

who propose to approve the Resident’s proposal subject to

the concurrence of the other interested departments.

We may I think concur, and a draft letter to the Colonial

Office is submitted accordingly.

I think we ought to proceed with extreme caution

over this case. Happily Colonel Reilly is still in the (r\

country and it will he very helpful if^j^ can discus? A /* with him personally.

It is at all times a tricky business to introduce

changes into ancient tribal custom. Left to themselves

tribes are very chary of doing so, but if things go wrong

they have their own ways of rectifying matters. The

introduction of ourselves as the Paramount power is a doubly . -A

disturbing ̂actor: on the one hand, reformers use us

for their own ends; on the other, we act as a brake on the

ordinary forceful rectification of a reform which has gone

wrong.

It is clear that succession in Lahej depends on

hereditfe^^tempered, and indeed sanctioned, by election,

fnis double principle is well-known: it obtains e.g. in

Kalat, where the chiefs have a strong feeling that the son

of the Khan should sit in the seat of his fathers and an

equally strong feeling that thev have themselves an over-

ncing right to decide whether to put him there, ft* is the

free play of these two principles which is chiefly responsible for the control the hereditary and yet elected leader

exercises by semi-divine right over the tribesmen. ''

It is of course the natural desire of every ruler to

make his dynasty secure during his lifetime. His obvious

tactics in a case like this would be to win over a certain

number of the electors to declare for a change in the old

custom . Before we ourselves should recognise, even in

the cautious form proposed, so radical a change, we should

-

have/

have to he satisfied that the declaration of custom was

made by the whole body of electors and was made in grim earnest.

I confess I am very sceptical in the present case. For one

thing, in adopting election during the chief’s lifetime,

the electors are real ear to surrendering their

free powers of elect!-... ffould require the electors

to declare their custom in the most formal and authoritative

manner in open Jirga or Durbar or the like. It is not clear

whether the Resident has had any such evidence: certainly

the word of the ruler himself would be unsatisfying.

Even without the attempted assassination of the

newly-elected heir as the Ajamatic sequel to the new-fangled

election, caution would have been desirable, for in a tribal

state of society law and order and the whole well-being of

tribe^ depend on the observance of accepted custom.

As it is, it is imperative.

Sir,

With reference to C.O. letter, No.

17963/33, of 17th May, 1933, regarding

the succession to the Sultanate of

Lahej, I arr. directed by the S. of S. for

I. to say that he suggests that it might

be preferable to inform the Sultan M that

the contents of his letter are noted**

rather than M that the election has been

noted", and to omit the word "formal"

before "recognition" in informing him

that the recognition of his successor

must be deferred until the latter*s

actual accession to the Sultanate.

Otherwise Secy. Sir Samuel Hoare agrees

16th Jane, 1933.

with farther reference to the question of the

Lahej succession, about which we talked on 9th June, I

write to say that the Political Committee here haye

raised another small point, yi? . t the ap Topriateness

of the word '‘formal" before '’recognition* in the third

line of oaragraoh 13 of ^den despatch. Ho* 65, of

22nd 1 arch* I mentioned this to Reilly when he

happened to be here on 14th June, and he said that he

attached no a >ecial emphasis to the word ‘’formal*, and

would be content if it were omitted from his

instructions. Vie are therefore making this small

suggestion also in our official reply to your letter,

no. 17963/33 of 17th ! ay.

THE RESIDENCY,

Aden, 2and l» arch, 1933.

Sir,

I hare the honour to refer to the recent

political events in Lahej in connection with the euooeseion

to the Sultanate, that have been reported briefly in

iolitioal Intelligence Sumaiary, paragrapha £t aeq .

Z* For very many years the custom in regard to the

succession to the Sultanate of lahej has been that after

the death of the reigning Sultan hia successor la elected

by certain tribal Aqila and .adhie, who are entitled to do

so. The election is then reported to the Resident, and

the new Sultan is accorded official re ognition unless

there are very cogent reaaona to withhold it. The

customary rooeciure thus briefly outlined is oommon to the

whole 1 roteotorate.

3. There are five branches of the family of the

Sultan of lahej, in two of which (the All Kuhsin and the

Fadhl lluhain) the sucoesaion has been confined, with

fairly regular alternation, since the death of the oonnion

ancestor, Sultan Kuhsin ’’adhl, in 1847.

4. On the ?iOOei>eion of the present Sultan, Hia

Highness Sir abdui Karim bin Fadhl Ali Kuhain, in 1918, the heads of the 4 ad hi uh&ln branch re fused to rcco j - nise

him. In 1919 a rapproaohment was brou :ht nbout betwesa

His Kajeaty's Secretary of State for the Colonies,

London.

this dissident element and His Highness, but the animosity

still smouldered, and in 1930 it brojte out in the form of

a conspiracy, instigated by these persons during the

absence of His Highness in India, to remoYe him and to

arrange the succession of a member of the Fadhl Muhsln

branch* The conspiracy was discoYered; and, on his

return from India, the Sultan took such action against the

ringleaders as he hoped would put on end to overt

opposition to his authority.

5. In consequence of this incident His Highness

made tentative proposals to the Residency that he should

ensure Continuity in the succession by proclaiming his

eldest son, Sultan >*acihl bin Abdul Karim as heir apparent,

-y predecessor advised him not to do so and the matter

1 appeared to have dros>ped.

6 . On the lath February of this year, however, His

Highness informed me that at the instance of the electors, and v.ith his permission, an election had been held, that

his eldest son Sultan Fadhl bin /ibdul Karim had been

unanimously elected as his euoeescor, and that he had

ancordingly nominated him as such.

7* His Hi hness had caused or allowed these steps to

be taken without prior reference to the Residency, find I

was about to express my objections to this procedure when

the report was received of the attempted assassination of

Sultan Fadhl at the hands or at the instigation of the

leaders of the Fadhl luhsin brunch (vide Political

Intelligence Summary paragraphs 22 o 0 , et seq). This new

circumstance made it impolitic for me to sdyi. e His

Ri chness to retract his reoogniti n of Sultan 'adhl as

hla successor, for the reason that His Highness's

acquiescence in my request might seem to he a concession to

violence; and 1 therefore considered it advisable to

confine myself at the moment to asking His Highness for an

explanation of the reasons that had prompted him in

departing from the customary practice in regard to the

succession*

8* In reply His Highness explained that his action

was designed to guard against the strife and dissension

that are the usual consequences of disputes regarding the

succession on the death of a tribal Chief. He argued

that the hultanate of lahej has come to bo recognised as

Sultanate of Lahej has assumed an importance unknown before

\ Oreat 1 ar, prinoipally due to the personality of the

teent Sultan and to his advisers -ind aealstants from his

i branch of the family. ^nd the very close contact that

\ been established between His Highness and the Residency

in the consideration of all major matters of general

importance in the irotectorate reader continuity of

succession {and consequently of policy), at Inhej, very

desirable.

11. In view, however, of the uncertainty that must,

in the nature of rab tribal polity, still exist as to the

actual accession of an heir-apparent on the death of a

ruling Chief, 1 consider that official recognition of a

pre-eleoted successor would seldom be effective, and ought

not to be accorded.

la. ~M2e, therefore, I tut sympathetic towards the

efforts of the :ultan of Lahej to protect the admirable

results of his organisation and industry in Lahej from

disintegration at the hands of a less able, and possibly

iiOstile, successor who might be elected from another brruich

of the family, after his death, 1 do not recommend any

departure, on our part, from the existing procedure in

regard to succession.

13. 1 propose, therefore, subject to your approval,

to limit myself to informing His Highness that the election

has been noted, but that formal recognition of his

successor must be deferred until the latt r f e actual

accession to the .>ult mate; and I intend to avoid the use

of iny expression th t would im ly a ,;iu rantee by His

Majesty’s Government of the arr&ngsm*mt that has been made.

I have, Akj .,

result of the conspiracy against Sultan of Labe ’

in 7 ’ arch, I9'6u and of the attempt on the life of his eldest son

in February 1933, His Highness has asked that four of

principal conspirators whc are his relatives may be

deported from his territories,. Having regard to the

special position of His Highness in Protects,rute and in

relation to Men of need for political stability in l,ahej i consider that removal of these persons to a distance

is necessary. It is not considered desirable to place them elsewhere in Protectorate or in Ade(? n omitted) for

fear of subversive intrigue with tribes«. I recommend

their deportation to Zanzibar or Palestine where they would be hamless. I should be glad to be informed

whether either Government would consent to receive them

md to withhold facilities for return for at least four

years. 3ultan of Lahej will arrange for their travelling and maintenance charges to be met by payments throu^i me.

Similar case occurred in 1926 and 1931 when Government of India with the Approval of Secretary* of State authorised

deportation of a Chief from Sharga in Persian Gulf to Aden,

May I have an urgent reply by telegraph.

2260. An attempt was made on the life of SULTAN FADH1, the elder son of His Highness the SULTAN of LAHEJ on the

night of 19th February. Two pistol shots were fired at him at close quarters, one penetrating an eye, and the other the groin. SULTAN FADHL is progressing

satisfactorily. The perpetrator of the deed who was the

nephew of the AtJR of DIP AL AMIR was killed on the

members of other branches of His Highness's family who were opposed to the election of His Highness's son as Heir Apparent.

Several arrests have been made, chief among whom are SULTANS 'ALI and FADHL, sons of the late SIR AHMED FADHL, K.C.S.I., and SULTAN AHMED MUNASSAR who are accused of being responsible for the conspiracy (vide paragraph 1120 ).

2266* (Reference paragraph 2260)* (1) Sultan FADHL continues to make progress, but vail lose the sight of one eye*

(2) The Resident, in forwarding to His Highness the Sultan of LAHEJ, a copy of a protest against the election by the opposition and in addressing His Highness on the unconstitutional action taken by him in having his son elected Heir Apparent, asked His Highness for his considered comments*

The main points in Hts Highness's reply to the Resident's letter may be summarised as follows

(a) Danger of tribal fighting end family disputes tn the death of a Sultan, if no Heir Apparent is elected.

(b) Necessity for the Sultan of LAHEJ, as Protectorate "arbitrator", to have an orderly realm*

(c) Increasing multiplicity of members of the different family branches, thereby making disputes mere likely and the security of the succession to one particular branch more advisable*

(d) Request for the Resident's favourable consideration of the election.

( 8 ) Under instructions from the Resident, the Acting Political Secretary visited His Highnesw to ensure that the arrested persons would be given a fair trial and that no extreme penalty would be imposed on them v/ithout first consulting the R e sident* His Highness readily gave this assurance but pointed out the necessity ©f taking adequate steps to put an end to the opposition's disloyalty to him once and for all* The Acting Political Secretary made known to His Highness the Resident's recognition of this necessity ahd of the fact that it might mean deportation of a lengthy term of imprisonment for the chief conspirators*

(4) Sultan AHMED MUNASSAR has been acquitted of any complicity in the recent outrage against Sultan FADHL, and his branch of the family, with the exception of of FADHL BIN 'ABDULQAWI, has expressed its loyalty to the Sultan*

(5) The er± crime is universally condemned and it appears that His Highness has the tribes and notables almost unanimously on his side, the opposition party now being confined to the descendants ef the late SIR AHMED FADHL, and some mambers of the ’ABDULLA HUHSIN FADHL branch*
