	The Desert Route From India
		The Shauks [Sheikhs] and their attendants and many poor Arabs join the caravans from Bassora with one, two or three camels, either loaded with things of small import to barter at Aleppo, or in hopes the greater cameleers may favour them with some freight back again.
		But these paths are sometimes by gales of wind covered with sand, and then the caravan is obliged to halt, and the guides spread themselves, as far as not losing sight of the body will permit, to discover a tract; or, not succeeding therein, wait till night and proceed by the stars.
		As to the ways upon the rivers side, where towns are frequent and consequently good water and other refreshments are never wanting, this agreeable route he said was impracticable, the imposition of the Turks and other inhabitants along the banks, both to the merchant and cameleer, would be insupportable.

	Chapter 51: The Conquest of Persia by the Moslems.
		The standard of the monarchy was overthrown and captured in the field — a leathern apron of a flsmith, who in ancient times had arisen the deliverer of Persia; but this badge of heroic poverty was disguised, and almost concealed, by a profusion of precious gems.
		The air, though excessively hot, is pure and healthy: the meadows are filled with palm- trees and cattle; and one of the adjacent valleys has been celebrated among the four paradises or gardens of Asia.
		After the defeat of Cadesia, a country intersected by rivers and canals might have opposed an insuperable barrier to the victorious cavalry; and the walls of Ctesiphon or Madayn, which had resisted the battering-rams of the Romans, would not have yielded to the darts of the Saracens.

	Payne Nights
		Then we fared on towards Bassora, and every day I sent meat and drink to the lady, who came not forth of the cabin, whilst I lay with my brothers on the deck.
		On this wise I abode some time and after awhile, I said in myself, "It may be her wrath is grown cool;" and left them a night unbeaten, whereupon she came to me and gave me a beating the pain whereof I shall never forget so long as I live.
		So rule you in Bassora in my absence and in my presence, and your commandments shall be executory; but look that ye fear God in your ordinances and beware of oppression, for oppression, if it endure, ruineth [a country]; and apply yourselves unto justice, for justice, if it endure, maketh [a country] to flourish.

	The Bagdad Railway, 1899-1914.
		The Bagdad line, as foreshadowed in the concession of 1893 to the German Anatolian Railway Company, was to be a continuation of the Angora branch, of the Anatolian railway, through Armenia, entering the Euphrates valley from the north and avoiding much expensive mountain tunneling and grading.
		Russia, for economic and strategic reasons, blocked this plan and eventually the concession was for a railroad running from the end of the Konia railway to Bagdad, then to Bassora, at the head of deep water navigation on the Shatt-el-Arab, to the mouth of the Tigris, and finally to a port, not specified.
		The concession was authorized in 1899, after the visit of the Kaiser to the Sultan in 1898.

	Basra refuses to deal with Britain after raid
		Bassora, 22 September - In the aftermath of the British occupation forces' raid on the police building to free their undercover agents, some 200 Iraqi policemen in Bassora staged a demonstration demanding that the head of the Bassora police force be fired and the two "British terrorists" be handed over to Iraqi jurisdiction.
		Meanwhile, the Iraqi government is trying to quell the rage of the Bassora police force, in which the Bassora province governor joined in calling the British assault, in which 5 people were killed, a "barbaric act".
		The trick that we have to pull off now with the Iraqi authorities is to identify those elements, to weed them out and to reinforce the good parts of the Iraqi police service."
