Translation of a letter from Nakhoda All Saleh

After Compliments,
Your letter has been leceived and I have understood its contents.
As regards Mr, Zeytoon, you have written that he will be corain» to Lineah

tpn t! I" ers ls AgbaAhHaii Muhammad Amin, but so far he has not
spoken to anyone regarding freight. I am making enquiries.
With regard to the 2,000 Gindis oxide which the Hindu wanted to take at
6 ?
rupees
Indian silver coin also widely used in the Persian Gulf.
per Gmdi Agha Abdullah has written to Haji Hasan that he should not
give ^antity); as, if ue gave, the Calcutta market will be injured. And so

done nothing. I told Ha]i Hasan that we should sell 2,000 Gindis and pay the
value tbereor to Abdullah so that we may redeem the oxide pawned with the
Hmdu; but he did not agree. Another Hindu wants 1 5 000 Gindis at the
s^me puce, uaji Jasan has not agreed (to supply him), and they are now in nego-
jiationb 1-.0 buy irom Hormuz^and they will do so. They will, in the end, ship from
ixOimuz and iaKe tne stuff where they like, and this chance will be lost by us.
(As regards 1 Hotz's Ag nt, we left together for the Island of Bin Musa.

not sufficient men. We were on the sea for four days and four nights and did not
even then reach the island. We returned to Lingah. If he had supplied efficient
men, or if I myself had engaged efficient men, we should have reached the Island.
This is the way Haji Hasan goes on. I do not know whether he wishes that I
should get tired and that the Island should be for himself. Other facts will turn
out. Greeting-
