reforms, justice and organisation. Orders are signed in the name of Shaikh
Hamad whereas he himself declared before the delegates of the people the day
before yesterday that he was compelled by Major Dally to put his signatures
to them. So we seize this opportninty to submit to your Excellency a copy
of the resolutions of the Congress of Bahrein enclosed herein which was held
on the 15th Rabiul-avval 1342 A. H.
We have the honour to be
Your Excellency's most obedient servants.
