. , mei i in the strife, effected his escape after
having been severely wounded in the leg, and returned to Kerman. Gunj Ali
Khan, the Head of the Afshars, took possession of a government gun which
the Governor had with him at Baft.
Gunj Ali Khan remained refractory throughout the year pillaging the
surrounding villages of Kerman till the arrival of the Kawam at Kerman.
When the Kawam summoned him, he was rather afraid of coming into Ker- •
inan, and wanted assurances for his safety, which the Kawam granted, and
he arrived in the town with a number of his tribesmen and took sanctuary at
the palace with the Kawam himself. On the Kawam's enquiry, Gunj Ali
Khan stated that he had taken possession of the gun simply to protect it for
the sake of the government, and that he was quite willing to give it up. He
sent for the field-piece afterwards and handed it over to the Kawam. Kawam
interceded and made the

AH Khan and sent him back to the Iliats, with orders to work conjointly
with the Sartips, Abdul Muzaffar Khan and Muhammad Khan, who were ap
pointed Governors of Rudbar and Jiruft respectively.
The Sahib-i-Ikhtiar resigned his post of Governorship in the middle of
the year under report, but remained here till August asking Tehran authori
ties to remit him his travelling allowances.
While Sahib-i-Ikhtiar was en route to Tehran, two bands of Farsi rob
bers attacked Rafsinjan and clean swept all its surrounding villages : the loss
in property and animals was estimated at about 80,000
tomans
10,000 Persian dinars, or a gold coin of that value.
. The robbers
threatened to sack Kerman, and it was just at that time when the Kawam was
coming to disperse the robbers. While the robbers were plundering the coun
try, Mr. Wright of the Imperial Bank of Persia, proceeding on leave to Eng
land via Ispahan, and passing by Rafsinjan road, was captured by robbers
who stripped him of everything he possessed. After three days he was re-
jeased and, having joined Sahib-i-Ikhtiar, accompanied him as far as Yezd.
oahib-i-Ikhtiar was also besieged by the robbers, but he took up a strong posi
tion in one of the bastions with his armed sowars and men immediately close
to his person and prepared to defend himself. Mr. Wright estimated his
loss in property and animals at 4,000
tomans
10,000 Persian dinars, or a gold coin of that value.

While the Kawam was coming to rescue the district from the hands of
robbers, the Governor-Generalship of the Province was offered him and
ac cepted. He arrived in Kerman in the month of October 1909.

ers ' 110 one has dared to step into their shoes, except one, Abdul Kasim Shimr,
