her story truthfully. One said her Bedouin mother
had told her she had been found by them under a

had been taken away from their own people while

river country in winter. Then the Nejdis had
come and carried them off to Kuweit. There they
were sold and married and carried off by Qutar
merchants. One or two knew the prices that had
been paid for them. When asked as to what they
desired they should be done for them now, they
answered, though not without hesitation, that they
wanted to go back to their people.

sister. The next down mail brought us the news

bookshop in Busrah. The last we heard of them
was that they had discarded their Arab clothes
