Memorandum . - ]
Please refer to my telegram ]5o.21-K of ^th Lay 1931.
The Sultan has at last agreed to return to kuscat
under the combined influence of the communicaticn I gave him,
my arguments when 1 saw him at Cawnpore, and those of Saiyid
Said when the latter saw His Highness at Dehra Dun. H.H. told
Saiyid Said that he would "be very glad to see the Hon'ble the
Political Resident at Iluscat in -November to discuss various
important matters with him. I asked Saiyid Said whether
CKc
H.H. was coming to Muscat merely for/interview with the
Political Resident or for the customary three months. Saiyid
Said replied that H.H. was not definite on this point but
that he - Saiyid Said - presumes it was for three months.
H.H. was a sick man with a attack of stomach trouble and so
Saiyid Said naturally could not press him on details. In fact
it was only after two or three days pressing by Saiyid Said thai
H.H. finally said he would return. He has sent no v/ritten
reply to the communication I gave him, but presumably he will
do so when he recovers. Saiyid Said had a telegram from him
a few days ago to say that he was better.
2• The point arises as to from what date the H.H's
reduced allowance should commence. Presumably from the 1st
of lay i.e. as effecting his allowance for that month.
