According to the report, receired by thi. Department from
that 0f the Cu “ toms . oopie» of which are herewith enclosed,
the official, on the border of Briti.h Baluchi.tan, contrary to
the display of friendship on the part of the Briti.h Oorernment
and the friendly expression of your predecessors which has
strengthened that friendship, and also contrary to the contents
of the note addressed by the British Consul at geistan to the
Foreign Office Agent at that place on the 18th Bamazan 1324
admitting that Kacha and Piran are the indisputable property of
the Persian Government are interfering with those places and
preventing the Customs* officials from the performance of their
duties, {
In view of the friendship existing between the two Govern
ments I have no doubt that the British Government will not
admit, and your sense of justice will not allow that the
officials in question should take such measures, which, I have
no doubt, have been by mistake. You will of course refer the
matter to the proper authorities so that the officials in
question should be prevented from taking possession of Persian
territory, and other measures.
