the part of himself and Hussain Khan, son of Said Khan, to accept a Persian
Governor appointed from Kerman. General Sykes, with the concurrence of
the Persian authorities in Kerman, recommended that thj Alu^am-us-Saltanah,
a Bam notable, should be appointed Governor and proceed with a small body

of India and the Akram-us-Saltanah was informed that his services would

had been renewing his invitation to the Governor-General of Kerman to
appoint a Persian Governor and that correspondence had been passins between
Bahrain Khan and the

was followed up and His Majesty's Consul judged it advisable to summon the
Akram-us-Saltanah to Kerman in order to keep him out of evil or the suspicion

taken place while General Sykes' proposal was still on the tapis. The Akram-
us-Saltanah was detained for more than a month in Kerman in a friendly way,
