Council of ministers.
After oompliments,

my arriral as usual* I sent a special man to discuss some matters
with him lut it appear# to me that he did not want that we should
hare friendship with k±m your Gorernment as "before secause he
takes adrices from his adrisers who are acting against us and
making mischief in the country. It has therefore "become necessary
for us to ask you to adTise the Wall v abstain from such affairs
which riolate the. terms of friendship and to remove the mischief-
makers or send another ^all in place of Saiyid Shahali so that our
friendship Tse continued as "before and no disturliance occur in
the country* He are sure that your GoTernment do not agree t©
such affairs the result of which is not good* xeu are sagacious
enough and would realise the friendship which is existing "between
us and your (xOTernment since olden days*
Saiyid Sfcahab has published that we had a finger in cutting
the GoTernment telephone and killing the horses* ^e never do such
mean acts and if we want to fight with anyone we will do so in
an honourable manner* If you acquit us from this act please let
us know* If you have the same idea as he does please let us know
so that we may keep aloof from your Government although you ai
rways urge upon us to maintain our friendship and we consider
that we are acting up to the terms of friendship.
