o the Mezzeni in order to mediate, but were
unsuccessful--that while they remained Suleiman was sent for, and that
having broken bread with the Mezzeni, he had a right to expect that his
life would be held sacred--that Suleiman had scarcely reached the
adverse party, when Sheikh Furriqh said--"We do not care about the
money, but there is blood between us;"--that instantly one of the
Mezzeni shot him through the body, and that Furriqh cut him down with
his sabre, while two other shots which were fired took effect upon him.
My recollection of Furriqh, from the first moment that he appeared in
our caravan, is such as to convince me that he would readily commit such
an act as this--so subtle--so cruel--so cowardly--without one feeling of
remorse or misgiving.
