British property should be paid, and threatening, if further piracies
were committed, to send a force into the Rif to chastise his rebellious
subjects.
No attention was paid to this edict, for though the Rifians
acknowledge the Sultan of Morocco as ‘Kaliph[24] Allah,’ H.M. being
a direct descendant from the Prophet, and though they allow a
governor of Rif extraction to be appointed by him to reside amongst
them, they do not admit of his interference in the administration of
government or in any kind of legislation, unless it happens he is
voluntarily appealed to in cases of dispute.
The Rifians, however, pay annually a small tribute, which is
generally composed of mules and honey, the latter article being
much cultivated on the extensive tracts of heather in the Rif
mountains. This tribute is collected by the Governor and transmitted
to the Sultan.
After a lengthened correspondence with the Moorish Court,
negotiations were closed by the Sultan declaring he had no power of
control over the mountainous districts in the Rif, and therefore
declining to be held responsible for the depredations committed on
vessels approaching that coast. The British Government then
dispatched a squadron to Gibraltar under Admiral Sir Charles Napier,
with orders to embark a regiment at that garrison, and to proceed to
the Rif coast to chastise the lawless inhabitants.
On his arrival at the Spanish fort of Melilla, which is about fifty
miles to the westward of the Algerian frontier, Sir Charles called on
the Spanish Governor and requested him to invite the chiefs of the
neighbouring villages to come to Melilla to meet him.
On their arrival, the Admiral demanded compensation for the
losses sustained by the owner of the British vessels which had been
captured. The Rifians cunningly evaded discussion by replying that
they could not accede to demands which did not emanate from the
Sultan, whose orders they declared they would be prepared to obey.
It was amongst these wild and lawless Rifians that Mr. Hay found
the most thorough sportsmen, and also men capable of great
attachment and devotion. Always much interested in the history of
this race, in their customs and mode of life, he wrote an interesting
account of the tribes which inhabit the north of Morocco and of his
personal intercourse with them.
