Dated the 5th (received 8th) October 1917.
From—Miss Emily Skirrow, Church Missionary Society, Lahore,
To—The Foreign Secretary to the Government of India in the Foreign and Political
Department, Simla.
I am much obliged for your letter* of October 2nd, by which I see that I
# „ fiQ have failed to make my claim to return
to Kerman clear. I beg to say that
I have worked there as a Church Missionary Society missionary for 8 years
with Dr. Westlake and have definite work to return to in teaching the
women and girls.
I was at home when our missionaries were withdrawn from Kerman—and
was prevented from returning to Persia by the stations being unoccupied.
It will be better in every way for Dr. Westlake and me to return there
together if it can possibly be arranged.
As you know we can travel with Dr. and Mrs. Dodson—if we go soon.
My passport is being renewed by the United Provinces Government.
