Sheikh Achmet Haffez, "My Bedouin Brother," the diplomatic 

 ruler of the Anezeh Bedouins. 



This photograph was taken by the Hon. J. B. Jackson, the 

 first American Consul in Aleppo, in 1908. It shows the dis- 

 tinguished old diplomat with a beard grown since our visit in 

 1906; it also reveals the medal from the Sultan of Turkey.
