that any arrangement which may he arrived at will be of a lasting nature
unless we remain permanently at Dthala, I do not myself favour any active
intervention in Amiri tribal affairs at the present juncture. I am of opinion^
that upon the natural declension of the Amir’s power, tribal affairs will in due
course settle down and matters find their own level. And the boundary having
been definitely drawn, I do not share Major Jacob’s apprehension in regard to
serious Turkish intrigue.
