D.0.KO.792-S of 1933.
The
Residency
An office of the East India Company and, later, of the British Raj, established in the provinces and regions considered part of, or under the influence of, British India.
,
Buahlre, the Srd July 19SS.
Please refer to your demi-olflcial letter
No.C/206-1(a) 8 of 18th June 1933 on the subject of
who should pay the first call - the Political A^ent
or the Shaikh.
2. I enclose copy of a letter No.138 of £9th
June 1933 from Colonel Dickson from which you will
see that at Kuwait It is the Sbaikh who makes the
first call. At Muscat, where the Sultan is His
Highness and gets 21 guns, "both the Political A^ent
and the Political Besident make the first call.
3. I think on the whole that as far as
Bahrain is concerned ive had better leave things
as they are for the present, (unless the Shaikh
raises the question, which he probably won't*), i.e.
that the Shaikh should make the first call. The
Shaikh's salute of 11 guns is after all only a
personal one and not attached to the office of
the Shaikh.
