Preservers of the peace in Morocco, 1873. Engraving of a sketch by Mr. R. E. Galindo, '...of a party of militia soldiers, or armed constables, who were sent out by the Pacha of Tangier, in those days, to patrol the neighbouring country and prevent any such disturbances as might have been feared upon a change of government. The two figures in the rear are soldiers in full uniform, with English smoothbore muskets. The population of Morocco is very mixed, of Berbers or North African aborigines, Arabs, Moors, Jews, and n*groes of Soudan. Only its northern part, the province of Fez, is much visited by European traders or travellers'. From "Illustrated London News", 1873.
