who eXerts his authority wisely.
Jews at Fez have received letters from
friends in Taxa saying that that part of
the country is safe and quiet under the
pretender and that their taxes have been
greatly reduced. The Sultan's forces at
Fee are said TO be demoraIized by defeat
ard the followers of the pretender assert
that although the imperial forces tried
again TO kill their opponents, their bull
lets turned into water" The pretender's
strategy mas quite outwitted the Sultan's
generals.
Messengers have been sent TO MeQuinez
to bring to Fez two American mission
