About this record
- Content
The letter is an acknowledgement of Kemball’s previous letter relating to Humeed bin Mujdell’s removal from Gurmah Island to al-Katiff [Al-Qaṭīf], approving of Kemball’s suggestion that while Humeed remains in Wahabee [ Wahhābī A follower of the Islamic reform movement known as Wahhabism; also used to refer to the people and territories ruled by the Al-Saud family. ] territory, the British should do nothing. Anderson adds that His Lordship in Council considers the destruction of Humeed bin Mujdell’s boat sufficient punishment, provided that any persons on board who were kidnapped and enslaved by Humeed, can be released.
