THAT whereas the benignant and Royal attention is always directed and set upon
the tranquillity of the towns, the case of the people and the enhancement of improve
ment and agriculture, therefore in view of the good services of His Excellency Sheikh
Khazal Khan Moez-es-Sultaneh Sardar-i-Arfaa, and of his forefathers and grandfathers,
which are always under the Royal consideration and (of the fact that) he has always
delighted and pleased the Royal mind by his good services and complete straightforward
ness (and) in order to bestow kingly graces and Royal favours we have, in this auspicious
year Pars Eel left and granted to him, as perpetual property the whole of Hindyan
and Dehmulla which are a part of his jurisdiction, together with the lands on the East of
Karun which are the place of his cultivation, so that he may with the utmost hopeful
ness and extreme zeal busy himself in augmenting the improvement of those two places,
and only pay the usual annual revenue to the Highest Government. And the present
and the future governors of Arabistan will not have the right to demand a single cent
in addition to the usual annual revenue, and the Sardar-i-Arfaa also will not have the
right to sell or transfer the said properties to foreign subjects. He should, with the
utmost efficient endeavours and ample exertions, use precautions towards extending
aoriculture and conducing ease to the subjects more than before, and he is permitted
and empowered to exercise in the said localities the possessory rights of ownership of
every kind. The Government will not have the right to take possession thereof.
It is hereby ordered that the respected Mostowfis (Government secretaries) should
register and record a copy of the august Farman, and consider it their duty to do so.
