UP THE
PERSIAN GULF
The historical term used to describe the body of water between the Arabian Peninsula and Iran.
TO BUSREH 269
which to stow away various purchases that he had made
in India!
On June 19th we bade good-bye to Busreh and its
hospitable English colony, steaming down between the low
flooded palm-covered shores of the broad Shat-el-Arab in
the launch of the Lawrence, lent us by the kindness of
Captain Piffard. We were again leaving civilisation behind
us, and my thoughts were now bent on the Baktiari
country and its lofty passes where we should not feel the
summer heats. At Mohammerah we removed our luggage
from the steam-launch to the Malamir, and with many
good-byes to our kind hosts and reiterated hopes of meet
ing in the future, we turned our faces north, and were soon
on the snow-fed waters of the Karun, the one navigable
river of which Persia can boast.
