At the end of Tebruary, the report continues, a patrol of the Eastern Arab Corps encoun- tered a party of armed, Abys sinian poachers on the River Atbara.

On being summoned to Aur- render, the Abyssinians im mediately opened fire, which was returned. One Abyssinian was wounded, two others with rifles escuped, and the remain- der surrendered.

30 MILES BEYOND FRONTIER

The British Consul for South- Western Abyssinia, It is stated, "visited the Boma plateau at the beginning of December and found Kanya match Ayella and a party of Ethiopian soldiers still in occu- pation. Despite the consul's formal protests, the Kanyasmatch, who stated that he was acting under instructions, followed the consul to the Beir village of Towath and there displayed thei Ethiopian flag.”

The report adds that this was not taken seriously, by either con- aul or natives, since Boma lies at a distance of about 80 miles in- side the Sudan frontier as defined by the treaty of May 15, 1902. Representations were, howover, made on this subject by the Bri- tish Minister at Addis Ababa to the Abyssinian Government.
