20 metres west of Kanema-Lekariri road, 1,800 metres from Kanema market, on summit of ridge bordering swamps of Komadugu Yobe On the left bank of the River Komadugu Yobe in the bush. An auxiliary mark, consisting of a telegraph pole, is placed on the right bank of the river

:

:

From beacon 148 the frontier follows a straight line bearing 90°, distance about 30 metres, till this line intersects the thalweg of the River Komadugu Yobe.

From this point the frontier follows the thalweg of the River Komadugu Yobe as far as the mouth of the river in Lake Chad.

As the course of the Komadugu Yobe is extremely sinuous, rendering it liable to frequent changes, it is necessary to make an arrangement providing for such a change. The following appears the most suitable:

In the case of the river altering its course to the northward or westward so as to intersect the straight line between beacons 147 and 148 to the westward of the present point, the new thalweg of the river will constitute the frontier from the aforesaid new point of intersection.

In the case of the river altering its course to the southward or eastward so as not to intersect the line as described at 30 metres from beacon 148, the frontier will follow the thalweg of the river as now existing to the point where the thalweg of this old bed will join the thalweg of the new bed of the river.

From this point the frontier will follow the thalweg of the river as it may exist for the time being as far as the mouth of the river in Lake Chad.

The mouth of the Komadugu Yobe has been marked by an iron telegraph pole, cemented at the base, situated in 13° 42′ 29′′ north latitude, 8,250 metres east of the centre of the village of Bosso.

From this point the frontier follows the parallel of 13° 42′ 29′′ north latitude for a distance of 26,700 metres to the point on that parallel 35 kilom. from the centre of Bosso.

An iron telegraph pole, set in cement, is erected on an island situated approximately 1,150 metres bearing 325° from this point.

From this point the frontier follows a straight line bearing 144° 34', distance 96,062 metres to the point where the 13th parallel of north latitude intersects the meridian 35' east of the centre of Kukawa.

The centre of Kukawa is in 12° 55′ 35.5" north latitude. The centre of Bosso is in 13° 41′ 59′′ north latitude, 0° 15' 11" west of Kukawa.

Deflections.

II. From the line as laid down in the Convention of the 29th May, 1906, the following departures have been made, which are submitted for approval :

:

1. At beacon 32 an area of 41 square kilom., lying in the British zone, has been included in the French zone in order to leave under French control the village of Kauara, which is
