Foreign Secret. Turco-Persian Frontier Commission. Foreign Office

and that contrary statement in War Office letter of 2nd August last was
incorrect. Triangulations are in existence and are being sent to Mohammerah
for use of Commission. Are you disposed in these circumstances to modify
your recommendations as to Survey party ?
