About this record

Content

Samuel Hennell reports that the Nuwabi Hajeea and her two sons, Sekunder Meerza and Mahomed Meerza, left Bushire for Shiraz on 30 February 1850. Hennell writes that no settlement was reached regarding the Nuwabi Hajeea's claim on the Cazeroon [Kāzerūn] estates. Hennell reports that apparently the object of the Nuwabi Hajeea's visit to Bushire had been to take Mr Arrakeel Constantine with her to Shiraz. Hennell states that he declined to give any aid or support to this plan.
