seeking the protection of the British flag to avoid
a repetition of the brutal outrages to which they
were exposed in 1911, when the wild kabye
tribe came down to the coast and committed the
most barbarous acts of murder and plumber. At
last accounts nearly 5000 Jews had arrived at
Gibraltar, from Tanger, and it was probable that
they would be followed by many thousand others
from other parts of Morocco. Most Of the fugitivcs
are in destitute circumstances, being obliged, in
their sudden flight to leave behind them whatever
little property they possessed Very many of the
sufferers, including young women and children,
could find no resting place upon reaching Gibraltar

been made in their behalf to their coregonists
