Mohammed, 
With the surname 
Bukalmarami. Son 
of Edris and Fanna 
Pbrahim. 
Son of Edrfs and 
Ghumsu. 
Ha j 'Omar. 
Son of Edris and 
Fishama. 
'An 
Ben el Haj 'Omar. 
Edri's 
Ben 'AU. 
like and intelligent Edris ben Harun, who 
succeeded in that office his elder brother 
Kursuwa, and who by his excellent arrange- 
ments, as well as by his courage, guaran- 
teed the success of many of his master's 
undertakings. 
An excellent prince, but less warlike and 
enterprising, as it would seem, than his 
father, whose vigour was no longer neces- 
sary, the empire being well established. 
Sent an embassy to Tripoli in the year 1627. 
Made the pilgrimage to Mekka in the year 
1642, having ascended the throne, accord- 
ing to the French document, in the year 
1634 (1624?). 
A valiant and intelligent man, who thrice 
made the pilgrimage to Mekka, viz. in the 
years 1648, 1656, and 1667; when return- 
ing on the last occasion from his distant 
journey, he had to extinguish a revolution. 
He waged several wars with the sultan of 
Air residing in A'gades, and was once 
besieged in his capital at the same time by 
the Tawarek and by the Koana, or Kwona, 
a division of the Kororofa, who had long 
been subjected to Bornu, when he managed 
to set the latter against the former, and 
then destroyed them also. It seems that 
in his reign the country was afflicted by 
several long famines, which distressed the 
inhabitants greatly, and which can scarcely 
be explained but by supposing an un- 
settled state of the country, which did not 
allow the people to cultivate the ground. 
This is the king who has been omitted by 
mistake in the chronicle. 
Dekana (?).* 
(Perhaps in the 
territory of the 
Duggana.)
