With reference to ray despatch No*17 of the 6th
instant, re^ardinp the nonition of Bahraini residents at
Gusbah, I have the honour to report that the Govern or General
no-w tells rae that the Governor of Abadan has been to Gusbah
and he states that no oersons have been beaten or imprisoned
and no Bahraini has died or been injured. The Governor
General therefore has ashed ne to supply further information
regarding the men who are alleged to have been ill-treated.
I have been able to supply the name of the man who is said to
have died, which is Seyed Hussein, son of Seyed Tun*ah.
According to Captain Chauncy’s information, which he is
perfectly satisfied is based on good authority, the man was in
possession of a document of Bahrain nationality issued
the authorities there. Captain Chruncy is equally satisfied
that the incidents complained of have actually taken place.
2. 1 ^ot consider that anv useful purpose would be
served by a personal visit to Gusbah either on ray part or on
that of Cant* in Chauncy until it is known whether the -Persian
Government in ^ehran does or does not agree to maintain the
status quo in accordance with their former undertakings or
unless the interests of the Shaikh of Bahrain require specific
information fron Gusbah. 1 have advised Captain Chauncy
accordingly. In the meanwhile the
