Traveler Comments
On Iraq, Lebanon;
Visits Jerusalem
Comments on the history and
present-day conditions of cities
in Iraq, Lebanon and Syria
were contained In a letter from
Dr. B. R. Elliott, retired Medford
dentist on a round-the-world trip
by air.
Writing of Mosul, Iraq, the
traveler said "Around 700 B. C.
the 10 tribes of Israel were held
captive In this Mosul-Nlnevah
area by the Assyrians, and never
allowed to return. There are
some pure Jewish villages there
today.
"The two tribes of Israel were
taken to Babylon, but the Baby
lonians allowed them to return
after 70 years.
"Beirut, Lebanon, nestled on
the shores of the Mediterranean,
is very beautiful from the air.
The Mediterranean is almost as
blue as Crater lake. We visited
the cedars of Lebanon. Inland
from Tripoli. Logs from this area
were brought down the Mediter
ranean coast in rafts to Tyre and
Jaffa and taken inland to Jeru
salem for King Solonon's temple.
Biblos fortress on the sea coast
with its 1000 B. C. architecture
has cannon balls still lodged in
the walls from an Egyptian sea
attack in early days. Adjoining
the fortress Is an old Roman the
ater, a vaulted treasury, a place
of sacrifice and an old Phoenic
ian city.
"Russian archeologists are now
exploring the area and have
brought to the surface from
depths of 30 feet two enormous
tomb? or caskets weighing tons.
The Russians, as well as the anc
ient people, lowered such things
by placing them on sand and
gradually removing the sand.
They raise them by adding sand
slightly raising one end and
placing more sand under the
tomb and repeating.
"When not working, men in
all these areas play almost con
stantly with plain beads. We
notice many grown men walking
hand in hand.
"Baalbeck 1000 B.C. is tre
mendously interesting. The kaiser
visited here in, 1898 and shortly
thereafter Germany took away
much of the statuary, which was
Grecian, though built by the Ro
mans. Here Julius Caesar, Nero
id others flourished and fell.
"Damascus, interesting because
t is the oldest inhabited city in
the world, with its street called
Straight, St. Paul's Gate and wall
and the window from which he
was let down in a basket, the
house of Ananias, the tomb of
John uie Baptist (his head only)
and the secret passage from Ana
nias house and leading under
the street called Straight.
"We came south by car over
the old Damascus road, mention
ed so often in the Bible. A few
miles outside of Jerusalem one
experiences coming to sea level
while still in the mountains. The
Dead Sea is 1300 feet below sea
level, while Jerusalem is about
2650 feet above sea level. Jeru
salem is much cooler than the
areas we have .visited. We are
staying at the American colony
of Jerusalem.
"The most popular method in
Asia of stimulating large tips
ing.
Military Order of the Lizards
is the fun and honor organiza
tion of the auxiliary to the Span
ish War Veterans.
Thank You!
r WE WISH to express our sincere apprecia-
tion to the following eoneerni and individ
uals whose fine cooperation made CATFISH
