Part I—Chap. VI
Poll. Dept. Diary 43, it appears from a letter of Nasrullah Khan to Dr. Jukes, Surgeon in charge
p. 2125 * 1 11 ^ ^ le K/esidenoy at Buahire, that when Sir Harford Jones had been in Shiraz,
His Excellency reported that General Malcolm might shortly be expected in
on the Gulf and requested that His Royal Highness the Prince would be
pleased to allot the Island of Karrak for his temporary residence, and that
a farman was accordingly granted that on the General's arrival he should reside
on the above-mentioned Island of Karrak till such time as he may receive
intelligence from the Ambassador of what were the agreements entered into
between the two States.
4iL The projected expedition was however not destined to sail to the Gulf»
for the tide of events in Europe was now running against Bonaparte, and his
projects for the invasion of India had to be indefinitely suspended, if not
entirely relinquished, and the Shah of Persia, likely to be disappointed in
his hopes from his French allies, would now turn to the British for help.
There was therefore no necessity now for an armed occupation of the Island of
Karrak and to send an expedition for the purpose.
