A Fragment of the History of Trengganu and Kelantan. 



The following fragment of the history of Trengganu and 

 Kelantan was written in about 1876 by Haji Abdullah, a court 

 historian in Trengganu. The manuscript is in the possession of 

 Nara Wangsa Mohamed Ali, better known as the Dato ? Mata-mata, 

 of Trengganu. The fragment describes the struggles between 

 Kelantan and Trengganu from about 1770 to 1835, when the 

 further intervention by Trengganu in Kelantan affairs was per- 

 emptorily stopped by Siam. The Sultan Mahmud of Linggi re- 

 ferred to in the text was the father of Sultan Hussain of Singapore. 

 He was driven out of Rio by the Dutch in 1785, and found a refuge 

 in Trengganu until the capture of Malacca by the English in 1795 

 permitted his return to his own country. The Tuan Snik of 

 Kampong Raja who was raised by the Siamese to the Raja-ship of 

 Kelantan was the famous Sultan of the Red Mouth who reigned in 

 Kelantan until his death in 1877. The present Sultan is his great- 

 grand-son. The present Sultan of Trengganu is a descendant in 

 the direct male line of Sultan Mansur.
