With reference to my letter Ho.30 "dated 12th January
lO^l^and your telegraphic enquiry, dated 4th January 1021,
whether there were many British and foreign subjects at
Ilirah, I beg to state that there are no British sublects
*
residing at Hirah button account of diving business, the
inhabitants of Hirah are indebted to British subjects for
about Rs.150000/-. But foreign subjects who are residing
at Lirah, traders and others such as women and children
number about 100.
\fter the conclusion of peace between the Shaikh of
■
Shapgah and \bdoP Rahman on H.M.S. "Triad" I wrote to the
Shaikh of \jman,vide ray letter Ho.19 dated 3th January 1921,
oopy enclosed for information, inforning him of the conclu
sion of peace and that if he did anything contrary to law,
which might cause any injury to the property and lives of
British and foreign subjects, he would be held responsible,
for all losses, and thit I warned him to refrain from his
mischievous proceedings. I beg to forwird herewith an
extract of the Shaikh of Ijman's letter stating that \bdor
Rahman and his men are wanted by him for their crime. It
is certain that if the Shaikh of \jman harms \bdor Rahman ^
men the people of Hirah and the Shaikh of Shapgah, accordinr
to his undertaking, will fight the Shaikh of \jman. T would
suggest that you may write a letter, in any sense you tnink
idvisable, to the Shaikh of \jraan so that ho may refrain
from doing any such thing.
