Secret City of Moors
Spanish Troops Reported lo
Have Occupied City of
Sheshewan
London. Nov. 18.?The Morocco cor?
respondent of The Times claims to bo
"almost with certainty" the only liv?
ing European who has hitherto visited
? heshawan. the mysterious, "secret'"
Moroccan inland city which is ofll
cially stated to be occupied by a
Spanish expeditionary force.
Sheshawan. or more correctly,
8hefshaon, he writes, is a small town
of a few thousand inhabitants situat?
ed in the tribeland of the Benl Zejel,
about 4l? miles to th?- so h
The Times mun says he visited it in
Moorish disguise in 1888 anu uoty ea
Cnned with difficulty.
He adds that the town is small,
htdlt along a sort of terrace on the
high mountain side, und is renowned
for its springs and streams. With the
exception of its pitcuresquo situation
among mountains, its aloofness, and
its surrounding gardens. Shesnawau
presents no very particular fsptursg,
Its Inhabitants are poor. Their in?
dustries arc the making of furniture
in painted wood?brackets and tables
?and the weaving of woollen stuffs.
They are renowned for thoif mean
riess, and a native ptoverb states: "If
von see a Moslem merchant from Fez
weeping. It is only a Moor of She
shawau who could have got the better
