My dear Fowle,
I thank you for the receipt of your letter D .C .535 -S
dated the 23rd May and confirm my telegram to you in this
connection dated the 25th May.

Sampson is expected in Abadan. at the end of this week
whereupon I shall discuss with him the draft Concession as
forwarded to me by London and thereafter telegraph London such
amendments as I consider necessary should be made in order to
give us a negotiating margin. I shall at the same time recmest
London to submit this amended draft, if approved by them, to
H.M.G. direct, and to telegraph their approval to the submission
of this to you also .
I am most grateful for your authority to send Williamson
to Qatar to pave the way with the Shaikh and I shall at once
telegraph you and Political Bahrein when he proceeds for this
purpose. The letter from you which Williamson will carry with
him, and which he will obtain from the Political Agent at Bahrein,
appears to me most suitable in every respect and will, J am sure
materially assist ;i Hi am son in his task.
I still await authority from you to despatch Sampson,
who will of course not proceed to Kuwait until such authority is
given, and after Williamson has sounded rt the all clear ff .
I have carefully noted your wishes in regard to copies
of future communications on this subject and will take action
accordingly.
Yours sincerely,
Lieut-Col. T.C.W.Fowle, C.B.E. ,
The Residency, C T Z_
Bushire.
-opy to j- itie Political Agent,
Bahrein.
