11 guards, and the same sum is levied fiom the members of the tribe te
12 which the caravan belongs.
13 The arrangement of the caravans, which go to India and Pepsia,
14 resemble those I have mentioned ; but the camels are hired from
15 carriers about towns, and the whole is under a Caufila Baushee,
16 fleeted by the people ot the caravan. This (ttfucr, however, is more
17 common with the Tanjilcs and citizens timii with the Aj^haunSy
18 often march together without any chief or any regulation.
19 These caravans generally march in the niglit. They do nut encamp
20 in the country at the end of their joumies like those of the tribes,
21 but put up in caravanserais in the to^Mis, Tiiese are large squares,
22 surtoiuided by apartments, nn<i liavuig a mosque, and often a wurm
