(2nd November, 1925).
Your Excellency,
\^ith reference to the discussions which have taken place con
cerning traders who are subjects of Trans-Jordan, 1 am not aware
of an established and customary road used for passage through the
Wadi
A seasonal or intermittent watercourse, or the valley in which it flows.
Sirhan by traders from Trans-Jordan. Should it appear,
however, that subjects of Trans-Jordan have an established and
acknowledged right, recognised by those who are expert in such
matters, to ply their trade from Syria and Trans-Jordan to the
southern portions of Trans-Jordan by way of the
Wadi
A seasonal or intermittent watercourse, or the valley in which it flows.
Sirhan, then
we hereby undertake to extend to them the same treatment as is
extended to subjects of Nejd by the Government of Trans-Jordan
in their transit to and from Syria.
(Sealed) ‘Abdu’l-‘Aziz ibn ‘Abdu’r-Rahman ibn Sa‘ud.
