He gives a fearful account of the sickness there among men and cattle; eight Digitized by Google 266 LETTERS FEOM EG TPT or ten deaths of men a day. Here we have only four a day, at the most, in a population of, I guess, some two thousand. Two hundred and fifty head of cattle have died at El-Moo- taneh. Here a few calves are dead, but as yet no full-grown beasts, and the people are healthy again. I really think I did some ser- vice by not showing any fear, and Omar be- haved manfully. Some one ...tried to put it into Omar's head that it was " haram " to be too fond of us heretics; but he consulted Sheykh Yoosuf, who promised him a reward hereafter for good conduct to me, and who told me of it as a good joke, adding that he was " ragil emeen," the highest praise for fidelity, — the sobriquet of the Prophet. Omar kisses the hands of the Seedee el-Kebeer (the great master), and desires his best salam to the little master and the little lady, whose ser- vant he is. He asks if I too do not kiss Isken- der Bey's hand in my letter, as I ought to do as his hareem; or whether I make myself "big before my master," like some Frangee ladies he has seen.
