Description | It has been understood that it would be much easier to carry out the agreed installation of arches, coat of armas, sanjak and other decorations on the road extending from Bab al-Halil to the municipal hospital if the passage of carriages and packs are prohibited. Since it has been considered that watchmen and two municipal police officials appointed by our council must be held at the disposal, it is appropriate to relegate the matter to the Municipal Police Force so as to position one of them over the road going to the German hospital and the other over the road next to Süreyya Pasha’s land. The 12th of Tishrîn Awwal (1)314 (24th of October 1898). [1 signature] |
