In continuation of iiyr letter Do. 9158, dated the
23rd December 19u7, and with reference to paragraph 2 of my
v
letter Do. 8848, dated the 11th idem, I am directed to state
that the Governor in Council regards paragraph 7 of the
Political Resident's letter Do. C-156, dated the 29th
November 19o7, as meaning only that the signing of the
proposed Agreements with the Haushabi, Alawi and Kotaibi
Cniefs should not be x^ressed and this policy meets with
the concurrence of the Government of Bombay. His Excellency
in Council considers nevertheless that it is desirable that
the Agreements should be signed, and the Resident is being
informed that he should not lose any opportunity which may
present itself of attaining this object without the exercise
of sx)ecial pressure.
I have, etc.,
