Article 7.
The Turkish Government in conformity with former treaties will grant the
necessary immunities to Persian pilgrims, in order that they may visit in com
plete security, and free from every exaction, the holy places situated in Turkey,
and with a view to strengthen the relations of friendship and concord, which
ought to exist between the two Powers of Islam and their respective subjects.
The Turkish Government will further take into consideration the most appro
priate mode of conferring on other subjects of Persia, as well as its pilgrims, the
privileges enjoyed by them in order that they may be protected from every species
of violence and oppression. The Turkish Government will admit such Consuls
as His Majesty the Shah may appoint in Turkey wherever the interests of com
merce or the protection of the merchants or subjects of Persia render it necessary,
excepting the holy cities of Mecca and Medina, and the Porte will confer on the
said Consuls the privileges due to their official character, and which are enjoyed
by the Consuls of other friendly States. Persia, on her part likewise, will grant
to the Consuls appointed by His Majesty the Sultan in Persia, wherever their
residence may be necessary, the privileges enjoyed by the Consuls of Foreign
Powers in Persia and in the same way the protection stipulated in former Treaties
will be exercised towards the subjects or merchants of Turkey who may frequent
Persia, and they will be protected from every kind of insult or injury whether in
their trading concerns or other matters.
Article 8 .
The two Mahomedan Governments engage to take measures of precaution
to put an end to robbery by the frontier tribes of the two kingdoms, and will with
this object establish military posts on the frontier, and the two States will be
come responsible for the incursions made into either territory. Uncontested
tribes will be restored to the Government to which they belong, but contested
tribes whose dependence is doubtful, shall be at liberty to choose once for all theiv
future place of abode.
Article 9.
