For political reasons, too, it was wise to robuild Kut, and it has a readying effect on the nerves of the poeple, Bo, in the middle of april, when Kat had been deserted nearly two months, a young Political officer, arrived in the sown with

The data and shouls in the middle of the Tigris were converted into vegetable gardens, each with its orier like screen of liquorice shrub, to keep off the driving sand. The women are now winnowing peacefully in Lynch's old Seral. In a courtyard a few doors off the Arab and Kurdish Folice are being drilled by an Arab'sergeant to English words of command.

Kut, though still partly in ruins, is a batter and cleaner town. Most of the people are back again behind their old door, which have provided shelter in tarn for British and Turkish dugouts The bazaars are thronged on Sundays. Nearly 5000 have returned out population of 6000, and they prosper for there is abundant labour for them in Ket, and its neighbourhood." But some of the Kutwals will never come back. Eight, including the Sheikh and bis Boas, the Turks hanged by way of reprisal. Some forty were shot, others were taken prisoners, and it is believed that some of these were afterwards done to death...
