Following is gist of the letter.
(1) The proclamation has been issued by the Sultan's Govern
ment, and decree for the punishment of the Omanis for loot
of property.
(2) The British Government is in alliance with the Sultan
of Muscat, and he will be supported fully, in accordance
with the terms of the agreement.
(3) The Government had previosuly used influence to mitigate
the'hardships of the tribes and finally mediated at their
request. By refusing to accept terms first agreed to tribes
proved unfit to be dealt with by Government, who would take
steps on their behalf, but would support the Sultan fully,
as in paragraph 2.
(4) The Government had agreed to the action of, the Muscat
Government in Issuing the proclamation, and had notified
the subjects accordingly.
(5) The Government is still ready to exercise good offices
for settlement, and the political Agent will meet authorized
Sheikhs at Sib before August if they wish that. But unless
the property is first returned he will not meet them.
Letter must be sent before July 15th, may I have your
views by telegraioh?
I consider that it is necessary to send a strong letter
it will strengthen the Sultan 's position and frighten the
tribes even if it does not have immediate effect.
