was yet in store for him. His son
Abdul-l-aZiZ had been left i'm charge
of Spain as chief in command. He had
married the widow of King Roderik
who had taken refuge at Merida. and
was an admirable administrator.
Emissaries of the khalif were sent
secretly to Spain to murder him. They
cut him down when he was at prayer
in a mosque at his villa near Seville,
and his embalmed head was brought
back to Damascus as proof that the
commission had been carried out
compelled Musa to come before the
assembled people and see the casket
opened.
''Ey the life of God there was never
Moslem who less deserved such
treatment" said The broken hearted
father as he beheld the features Of
his beloved son. HE passed his
nights in prayer and by day he tasted.
Hadst thou been just, o Commander
Of the Faithful, thou couldst not have
ordered this deed of blood"
In response to his request the kha-
T allowed Musa, now a bent, white
haired octogenarian, to receive the
head of his murdered son. Wrapping
ii in his tuaic he tottered from the
presence of the khalif and retired to
village where he prophesied that
before two suns had set there would
die a man whose fame had spread
from Damascus to the Pyrenees. The
prophesy was fulfilled. and the former
Amir Of Africa who had paid the full
penalty for misdeeds done because of
overweening ambition filled an un-
marked grave.-Frederick ]. Haskin.
