substitute the following :— asidu
In 1820, a concession was obtained by the British from the
Sultan of Oman for the occupation of a piece of territory on
Qishm Island, and an important naval and military station was
established on the north-east corner of the island. But this, as
well as a station tried on the island of Han jam, being found un
healthy, a move was made to Basidu, at the western end of the
island. This became the headquarters of the Indian Naval
Squadron, and a detachment of Indian troops was regularly
maintained there until 1879, when it was removed to Jask, where
it remained till 1887. The concession for Basidu was renewed
by the Persian Government when it took over Qishm Island from
the Sultan of Oman.

At the beginning of 1912, when the Persian Government was 1912 .
much embarrassed by the action of Russia, a recrudescence of Ex - Sh . a
activity on behalf of the ez-Shah took place. Recruits were col- b0lIl °
lected in Russian territory, and offered high pay, and large con
signments of arms and ammunition were passed along the Russian
railway for the ex-Shah. The ex-Shah himself advanced to
Samana, Salar-ud-Dauleh re-occupied Kirmanshah ,and Shuja-
ud-Dauleh again took the field near Ardabil.
The Persian Government made energetic protests to the two
Powers, and Russia was eventually persuaded to join with Great
Britain in informing the ex-Shah that the Powers would not
recognise him. Russian representatives at Astarabad conveyed
the message, with reservations on the part of Russia, and the
ex-Shah left Persian territory on March 2nd, 1912.
Salar-ud-Dauleh, however, still remained. He kept most of
western Persia in a state of disturbance throughout the year
though he was decisively defeated by Ephraim (Yprim) Kha. n *
Armenian, near Hamadan on May 19th.
