The common people eat only the seeds of the khish, which we have called primitive, or seeds from other khish, called qash or pure seeds. These are eaten by the lowest and most degraded of people. As for clothing, it is extremely scarce. Cotton is so rare that people will trade one cubit for a hundred wada', and a hundred cubits for ten thousand wada'. People wear anything except tarry, and all coverings are made from all sorts of materials until they are barely covered. Then they wore the kas, made of wool, which is a garment for the desert dwellers from the sea. This wool kas is not something that one remembers to wear until death. Some people wear the fidar, and some wear the ziriyyah, due to the lack of anything to cover their private parts. This lasted for about three years, from the year fifty-four to the year fifty-six. Then they became slightly better off, and the people of Tibit were completely unable to cope, and the wealth of Fugh, from their sales, and they sold their furniture and belongings. All the sheikhs agreed that they had never seen anything like it, nor had they seen anyone who had seen it, nor had they heard of anything like it from the sheikhs before. I do not think it is due to the wealth of the country and its inhabitants, because this scarcity will not last forever, so that no one from Tibit remains. God knows best His will and His judgment. And it is still in the country to this day. As for the strife, it has occurred among the Baraysh, who say to each other, and they do not care about God and His Messenger in the loss of life. Likewise, the archers say to each other. And a strife occurred between Muhammad bin al-Khish, chief of Katuwan, and the archers in the west of the Sultan Mulay Ismail's camp. He brought with him everyone who carried weapons from his side, some of them carrying cannons from the Arab tribes, and among them was Hamad Fulani, son of Fudtak Massa. They conspired to raid the camp and went out with a great army and attacked them. The camp was defeated, their ranks were scattered, and Hamad Fulani died among them, and he was a man of state and prosperity. It was said that Hamad Fulani's Fulani brothers had left him.
