the result that She eventually became

This. however, is only the first act of
the tragedy. 1t is understood that by
the Laws of Afghanistan, when the
ameer dies the whole of his 300 wives
must be shot Tho laws of the Afshans
are as immutable as thoseof their ancient

planned the heroic methods which had
been used to weed out the disloyalists and
