Genuine regret was felt at the departure of Hishmat-ud Dauleh who was
popular with all classes and whose administration had on the w r hole been
satisfactory and considerable uneasiness was expressed at the appointment of
a Bakhtiari who, it was anticipated, would follow the rapacious example set
by former Bakhtiari Governor-Generals.

prevent them from pillaging the country as had been the custom of the followers
of former Bakhtiari Governor-Generals.
These assurances he has, on the whole, carried out and his relations with
the Consulate and South Persia Kifles have been friendly and cordial. He has
refrained from making any change in the Governorships of Bam, Sirjan and
Baft, has maintained friendly relations with the influential Vakili and Sheikhi
families and has been no more rapacious in his demands than his predecessors.
He is however weak in character and is not much respected or feared.
