Sir,
With reference to your letter Bo. 874, dated the 31st
ultimo, concerning Beda affairs, I have the honour to invite
reference to Boundary Commissioner's letter Bo. 331, dated 1st
October 1903, and to Mr. Fitz Maurice's letter, dated the
30th April 1905.
2. Mr. FitzMaurice's remark that Beda is the one serious
gap in the Borth-East line constitutes the main argument in
favour of the early conclusion of the Treaty.
3. A Political Mission with Beda as its objective was sug
gested in this office letter Bo. 5193, dated the 27th August
last in connection with the proposal to exact submission from
the Dathina tribes and to generally acquire a more intimate
acquaintance with the easterly portion of this Protectorate,
and to establish closer relations with the more important
Chiefs of that District. And it is not necessary to here
repeat what was then urged in favour of that proposal.
