[The children of] Alloush al-Baqr, the children of Zayd, the Shabahin, the children of M[ and the people of] Sheikh Muhammad Laqtuf, Dublubiya, and the people of Al-Hajj Hassan. Article Two: These tribes undertake not to conclude any treaty of trade or friendship except through the French authorities. Article Three: These tribes shall not wage any war against any tribe or tribes without the permission of the French authorities, and shall fight in service of the French cause if the governor requests it after the tribe's council has agreed. Article Four: These tribes shall guarantee the safety of caravans heading towards French establishments within their territories and pastures, and shall protect all merchants or travelers sent or supported by the French government, and provide them with flags. Article Five: The French government shall respect the customs of the tribes concerning religion, justice, and the selection of their chiefs. Article Six: The French Governor of Sudan agrees to leave to the children of Dawood, as was the case in the past, the right to collect the tax called "Ghafr," amounting to thirty cubits of indigo per camel load, from the caravans belonging to the people of Tishbit, Agrigit, Kinana, the children of Al-Sab', Al-Raqiyat, Ad-Du'ali, Amkari', and the people of Arwan Fawaji. Article Seven: The French government shall use its authority and influence to protect the children of Dawood from hostile tribes and shall redress their grievances, but it shall never be obliged to participate in combat or involve its forces in it. When the children of Dawood are at war with the enemies of the French, assistance shall be provided to their chiefs by facilitating the supply of weapons and ammunition. Article Eight: All persons belonging to the children of Dawood are permitted to move within the French-controlled areas and to engage in trade and exchange with local establishments and villages. Article Nine: No taxes shall be imposed on the children of Dawood until a new decision is made by the governor. We note that the leader of the children of Alloush incorporated into his subjects the people of Al-Hajj Hassan, whom he himself had expelled from Baskuto, along with the children of Zayd and a number of Ja'afra camps, which led to violent protests from them. In fact, Sheikh bin Sidi was the first to disregard this treaty and raided his neighbors who were previously under our control. However, the establishment of the Sambi post in 1895, followed by the posts of Nasri and Al-Nabala, reduced the operational scope of the children of Alloush tribe. But this did not prevent their operations in the immediately adjacent areas. In fact, the entire documented square from Baskuno, Neri, Sami, and Ras Al-Mawtan was their hunting ground, and caravans avoided this area due to the insecurity there. As it was necessary to address this situation, starting from June 1896, a semi-continuous reconnaissance network was organized along the line of Al-Abyar (Ras Al-Ma', Baskuno), and it was completely successful. After mutual raids on livestock between the tribes, the displaced communities moved towards the coast, and commercial activity resumed.
