Translation of a Bond entered into by the Fadthli Sultan for the Security
of the Roads leading to Aden, —1857.
Seal of Ahmed bin Abdoollah, the Fadhlee.
An honourable Bond and a great 'writing!
I whose name and seal are set herein, have covenanted to the beloved Alowi
bin Zain A1 Aidroos upon peace and friendship between us and the pernor,
William Coghlan Sahib, the Ruler of Aden ; and also upon the safety of the toad
and security of the poor from Lahej to Aden. I am responsible for every sedi
tion that may take place on the road on the part of all the Fadhlee tribe®, either
inhabitants of the hills or coast. I am answerable for it for all what goes to them
on the roads of Ibian and Aden. Whatever plunder may take place upon our
subjects on the coast, I will call upon Syud Alowi, and the Governor of Aden
has the interposition.
If God should decree a quarrel, between thf Fadhlee and the Abdalees, each
would know his own friend, and the English should not interfere amongst Arabs.
Each would go on according to his rule and covenant, and if anyone should toy
to make mischief betwixt us (Fadhlee and English), the saying of such enemies
must not be listened to.
The Governor of Aden should abolish the invention which they have estab
lished at the gate of Aden upon the poor of our subjects and others ; for the sake
of the good condition of the needy, we and the English are friends upon sincerity
and good-will between them and us and protection for our said friends (subjec ).
I have covenanted to the beloved Alowi, and he will covenant on my behalf
f.hfi Onvernor. William Coghlan.
