I have received your foraer and later favour# and was
glad to hear of your welfare.
As to your reaarks on the oubjeot of the red oxide in regard
to which God decreed that you sold it to the aenaan Wonokhaus at
15 si.ixlinfis per ton, and whereas it was arranged that you should
excavate 2000 tons per annum, all the charges to be defrayed by
you and he to receive the oxide nett. Very goodj I hope it is
auspicious. It will be good fortune after trouble. In any case
our brother Abdullah must reach there to supervise the wort,
because I think the operations cannot be regulated without him.
Please, however, refrain f*oa entering upon any arrangements
whatever in the nature of leases or^ deeds of contract from which
there will arise difficulties and quarrels which will lead to
complaints and claims, because this will be difficult for our
over-lords and they will not consent to it; and you are by God's
grace wise and will not coraait any negligence or hesitation
likely to entangle you, because in these days everyone is caking
a trap with which to catch people, I hope you will not be neglect
ful in this regard.
At any rate I aa glad to hear this news, if we are safe
from the world's tricks wore than before.
