It will be seen that the death of Dato’ Klana Bahi was fol- 
lowed by two successive appointments from the waris liulu, and 
we are left to wonder if the theory of the gilir was not put forward 
first by the Arab, Saiyid Abdu’r-Bahman, to whom it meant so 
much. 
The days of the fourth Klana, Dato’ Kawal, were troubled by 
petty wars. The first was a war against the Dato’ of Ulu Muar 
who favoured the cause of Baja Badin as Yamtuan Besar while the 
Klana favoured Yamtuan Sati. Baja Badin was driven out. The 
second was a Avar against Yamtaun Sati Avho had offended the 
Klana ; Yamtuan Sati was driven out. The third was a Avar 
against Baja ‘Ali in the interests of Baja Badin ; Baja ‘Ali was 
expelled from Sri Menanti and Baja Badin placed on the throne 
by the Klana and the Dato’ of Bembau. Dato’ Kawal Avaged three 
successful wars with the futile result that he replaced matters ex- 
actly Avhere he first found them. His next contest was eA'en less 
satisfactory. He quarrelled with the Dato’ Bandar and plunged 
the country into civil war. Yamtuan Badin, avIio Avas invited to 
arbitrate, seems to have settled the dispute by appointing the Klana 
and Bandar joint rulers of Sungai Ujong. This compromise cre- 
ated an impossible position ; the rivalry of the joint rulers gave the 
people no peace, till the British intervened.
