We found the Bedouin of Mount Haghier fond of dancing and playing their teherane, and also peculiarly lax in their religious observances; and though ostensibly conforming to Mohammedan practice, they observe next to none of their precepts; and it is precisely the same with the Bedouin whom we met in the Gara mountains.
The teherane would seem to be the favourite and only Sokotran instrument of music if we except flutes made of the leg-bones of birds common on the opposite coast, and probably introduced thence and finds favour alike with Arab, Bedou, and Negro. The people here did not torment us by staring at and crowding round us.
