Uated the 28th Shawwal 1346 20th April 1928»
From The Amirs^Ali and Muhararaad A1 Hamudah.
TO. Saiyld Bhahah bin Faisal,
After Compliments,
We have received your dear letter dated the
28th Shawwal 1346 20th April 1928 informing us that you
have extended the armistice between us and the Arama,
the Fuwaris,by ten days so that deliberations could be made
within this period to find a solution of the difficulty,
and in doing so you trusted in the good intentions of the
the claimants,who hold that the armistice effected and
accepted by us to them through the intervention of A1
Hashum has expired and the negotiations have toot ended.
We reply to your Icind proposal,that the there are
still two &K3C nights and a day unexpired out of the first
ns
armistice and this is sufficient if they have good intentio
to settle the matters. If the Fuwaris and Arama have
good intentions,it is very easy to settle the dispute
within 5 hours,because our conditions are known to them
and they have only to say that they have accepted them
unconditionally and then we shall carry them out before
tomorrow afterboon. But their intents are not good and
they say from their tongues,what is not in their hearts
and verily God knows the aggressors. We regret very much
to inform you that it is not possible for us yo accept
any armistice after the expiry of the present one on
you
the morning of day after tomorrow. We hope that itaqc will
not count this as an aggression from us, as we granted
them several armistices and 7 years have passed but
they are still am astray and creat disturbance. It may
not be hidden to you that we have at present 2000 troops
to bring to close this matter before returning to their
v
homes and families and if we wish to retain them for
a time,we require a heavy expence. In the end we request
,
you not put a bad meaning on this letter and you know
* - « J J 1 •
that truth is from your God and He knows the doubtful.
