and any buildings or marks which may
have hitherto been erected on such
lands shall not, when the boundary
line is fixed, be considered as proofs
of possession by the party unentitled
thereto.
V. —The repairing of the houses
which were demolished at Kazlee
Gioul does not form part of the stipula
tion previously explained ; and it is
agreed upon by the two States that
the occupants of these houses may
repair them ; but their doing so shall
not be considered when the frontier
line is settled as having conferred
upon them the right of proprietor
ship.
VI. —Should any dispute arise bet
ween the frontier authorities on this
subject they must in the first instance
discuss the matter between them
selves in a manner suitable to the
dignity and rights of the two States,
and to the friendship subsisting bet
ween them. But if they should not
be able to agree they shall then, with
out having recourse to any action,
refer the case to their respective
central Governments and await their
instructions.
VII. —This temporary agreement
shall hold good until the boundary line
is settled. With regard to the dis^
puted lands and the question under
discussion between the two Govern
ments, no verbal or written commu
nication or protest which may have
been made can alter the present
stipulations.
