ABSTRACT
NEXT day Seiyun emptied. Uncle Bubakr from Hureidha, his son'Alawi, the Mansab of Meshhed and his brother and other'Attas Seiyids had been staying in the house. They were anxious that I should go up the Wadi ,Amd and sign on the Ja'da, but there was still much to do in Wadi Hadhramaut and I promised to go later on. In the meantime they took D. offwith them and she and'Alawi were to go up the \vadi and see what the situation was.
