Three Sudanese Battles

The people of Matamma were asked to evacuate the town to make way for
Mahmud's army. The Ja'li leader, Abd Allah Sa'd, refused. Mahmud and his army
went north in the spring -of 1887 and wiped them out, thereby alienating the Ja'li
tribe who occupied the villages between Khartoum and Berber, providing many
of the merchants who plied between Sudan and Egypt. Not surprisingly many Ja'
li threw in their lot with the invaders . In February 1898 Mahmud went further
north.
