                                           APPENDIX B TO PART L
                       The following in a brief account of the tribe in the district of Pashto Kooh.
                        Husainkuli Khan, the present Wali, is the son of Hyder Khan,ibn Hassaa Khan, ibn Aaad
                    Khan, ibn Iemaeel Khan, ibn Hooeani Khan.
                       Their origin is from the Rubai* tribe of Arabs, who are settled on tbo western side of
                    the River Tigria in Turkish territory. The ancestor of the present Wali having become dis­
                    pleased with his oonsins, deserted his tribesmen and came to Loristan, where ho settled and
                    inter-married with the Faili tribe, thus losing the name of the original tribo, and beooming
                    known by the name of Faili.
                        After 6ome time one by name Hosain Khan, one of the descendants of the above-said
                    deserter, became a servant of Shahwardi Khan, who was one of the Mire of Wirkond, and was
                    at that time Wali of Loristan on the part of His Majesty Shah Abbas, Safavi. This Shah­
                    wardi Khan and his ancestors had been for many years the raid's of Loristnn, and considered
                    themselves as the descendants of Akil, son of Abetalib (bat God knows bo3t).
                        By some means or other Husain Kban rose to a high position during the rule of Shah­
                    wardi Khan, who several times depated him to Ispahan, and ho had the honour of waiting on
                    His Majesty Shah Abbas. In the meantime Shahwardi Khan was arraigned on a certain
                    charge before the Shah, who came to Loristan, and ordered him to be executed. Husain
                    Khan was then% appointed to succeed him, and from this time the Walisbip of Loristan has
                    been transferred to this tribe from the Mire of Wirkond. At the beginning of the reign of
                    the Kajar dynasty, the Government took the province of Pish Kooh from the descendants of
                    Husain Khan, who were ordered to content themselves with the possession of the territory
                    called Pushto Kooh, and they consequently removed there, and since then the Waliship of
                    Pushte Kooh of Loristan has continued with this tribe.
