94 This word means in general a measure without any definition; but in some parts of Daghistan and 
Aderbijan the word is co4rupted into Æïleh als is used in a definite sense. Among them this Æileh is 
a kind of vessel merely for measuring dry things, and it may contain from 8 to 12 pounds, according to the 
nature of the substance measured. 
%$ For murdering a murderer, according to the law of vengeance, there is no civil punishment among 
the mountaineers of Daghistan unless the deed be performed by one who has no right to avenge.
