- ... that the Marri rose in rebellion in Balochistan in 1918 because they heard rumours of British defeats in the First World War? "in the course of their visit they seem to have been profoundly affected by the usual pessimistic rumours of German victories-and British defeats which circulate not less in Quetta than in other Indian towns and the value of which is usually discounted by the habitues of the bazars. The Marris, coming fresh and gullible from their remote hills and unused to the babble of cities, believed all that they heard" from page 2 of: Administration Report of the Baluchistan Agency, for the year 1917-18 (Bound together with reports 1915-16 to 1919-20, starts page 294 of this binding). Calcutta: Superintendent Government Printing. 1919.
