received under circumstances that lead to a supposition it is inconsistent with the Sheikh's duty
to his immediate superior, the King of Persia, the ally of the British Government, \ou will
at the same time assure the Sheikh that no displeasure is mixed with this proceeding which
is adopted merely from principles of action in such matters from which the Government cannot
depart.
You will also be pleased to inform the Sheikhjthat with the resolution this Government has
adopted to preserve inviolate its friendship with the King of Persia and which it is particularly
necessary to observe at this moment, there would be a hazard to him if any letter of Irs were
opened and answered that had the most distant allusion to the proposition made to you, for
it might, if information of it reached the Persian Government, expose him to its resentment,
and the Governor in Council could grant him no support, even by remonstrance, without
incurring suspicions of having given him encouragement.
The Governor in Council directs me to add that no letters should be forwarded from the
Sheikh of Bushire, or any other Persian Chief, the contents of which you are not acquainted
with, that you may be able to judge of the propriety of transmitting them.
