When Abraham was married, he mar ried his own sister, and withal, she was a mot beautiful woman, and he instru -ted her to say that she was his sister, when any one should ask her. Abraham was afraid that if the Egyptians should know that she was his wife that they would kill him for her and thought also that if they knew she was his sister, they would be friendly to him on that account.

Lot his nephew lso had much property, and when they returned to Canaan they found the drought broken and much water :nd pasture, hut they had grown so great that the herdsmen of the two chieftains quarreled over the ground and the watering places. ! The- situation became so tense that Abraham said to Lot, "Choose where you want to go and I will go some where else." Lot looked on the val ley of Jordan, well watered, and said he would take that and pitched his (tents toward Sodom, which was a j wic ked city. Abraham then took the hill country and moved his head quarters to rear Hebron, and made his home at Mam re. Here he pros pered and it was said of him that he had flocks and herds on a thousand hills. j j Elam was a province towards thej birthplace of Abraham and was ruled over by a king, known as Chedorlao mer, who with a number of other kings came to the country where Lot had chosen and fought against the S -domites, and put them under trib ute. This condition lasted for twelve yerrs when the Sodomites and the other provinces there rebelled and a very previous war was had. in which the Sodomites and their allies were defeated and many carried away as prisoners, especially their wives and ' their goods. One escaped, who ran , and told Abraham, who immediately gathered his fighting men together numbering three hundred well train-, ed warriors and with these he per- sued Chedorlaomer, arid overtook them near Damascus, where they sur prised and routed them, recovering all that had been carried off. as well as taking a large amount of spoil.
