After Greeting,
In a most fortunate time I received your letter dated the 25th Safar and noted
it n itii pleasure. I have understood what you had stated, especially as regards the
receipt of our letter by you. This is satisfactory. As regards my son Abdullah, it
was firstly his intention to come by S. S, Mohamedi ; but God did not will this.
He will, if God pleases, arrive by the steamer which is due in 3-4 days, and
he will certainly meet you at Bunder Abbas.
You had stated that the German steamer visited the Bu Musa Island and ship
ped one thousand tons. There has not been such a report with us, nor has any
steamer visited the island. Had f .®y steamer visited there.
to write my letter to that effect. This news is false. You have also l^aie|d that the
steamer Mohamedi will arrive at Bu Musa. This has not become known and no
communication has been made with them the agents of the company) regard
ing the arrival of the steamer.
You had stated that you required Omani tobacco. Tobacco is absolutely
unavailable at Lingah now-a-days. It cannot be procured even at Rs. 6-8-0 per
maund. God willing, I will send yoa (some) as soon as 1 obtair it. I have under
stood all about Abdul Mohsin. Mi.y God facilitate the affairs of the Moslems !
Thenewsof our port is quiet and nothing has transpired that may be mentioned
to you, except what is good. Please give my compliments to all those who are dear
to you. May you remain preserved !
