Sheikh Khazal has on his side reciprocated by maintaining a
conciliatory attitude towards the Vali since his arrival and has
not opposed the partial destruction of his house property on the
Ashar creek road, which is included in the municipal scheme now
being carried out by the Vali of widening the road and laying
down a tramway to E^asra. Sheikh Khazal f s agent, Mirza Hamza,
called on me and made some enquiries as to my own attitude in re
