, The dangerous periods for piague in Bahrein are known to be April and
May fand epidemics have occurred every other year smce Aprd . 903 .
I do not propose to expend item^and^un^
^efewouM probably be a saring of Rs 95 ° every other year, although it has not
yefbeen possible to'prove w hether this intermittent appearance is a pure accdent
or whether due to unknown natural causes.
* In the above mentioned preventive actions, ! do not propose to do any-
thing^which would offend the susceptibilities of Sheikh Esa or of the inhabitants.
I would prefer Sheikh Esa to carry out the measures under direction of his
quaranTine doctor (if approved) and merely give general supervision myse f
Very likely he would do so and nearly the whole amount would be saved, but
I wfsh to be in a position to back up advice by acts in case he grudges the extra
expenditure, and as it is not a suitable moment to ask him definitely or even
broach the subject to him I have ventured to ask for this provision.
