And in the same year, they wrested the fort of Goah from the possession of Yusaf Adil Shah; but the latter shortly after amicably got it back from their hands. But after a short period, the Portuguese offering a large sum of money to the ruler of that place re-acquired possession of it, and establishing their Capital at that port, which was very strong, fortified it further. And the Samri, from the humiliation and sorrow consequent on this, died in the year 921 A.H., and his brother succeeding him ceased hostility, and establishing peaceful relations with the Portuguese, gave the latter permission to erect a fort near the town of Kalikot, obtaining from them a stipulation to the effect that he would send yearly four ships of pepper and ginger to the ports of Arabia. For a short while, the Portuguese kept their promise and word, but when the fort was completed, they prevented his trading in the aforesaid articles, and commenced various malpractices and oppressions on the Musalmans. And similarly, the Jews who were at Kadatklor, being informed of the weakness of the Samri, transgressed the limits of propriety, and caused many Musalmans to drink the syrup of martyrdom. The Samri, repenting of his past policy, first proceeded to Kadatklor, and completely extinguished the Jews, so that no trace of them remained there.
