Sir,
I have tne honour to enclose a copy of a letter
dated the 15th February 1933 (20th Shawwal 1351), which
I have received from Abdullah bin Jiluwi, the Amir of
Hasa, regarding the procedure to be observed in dealing
with claims against Hasawis.
2. I understand that the letter is possibly the
*
outcome of a particular case, and am looking into the
matter.
3. The letter is, apart from any question of law,
curiously worded (especially the reference to not raising
the question with His Majesty the King)and any answer
will require careful consideration,
4. In the meantime I do not v/ish to appear
discourteous, so propose to reply* just beiore I leave
for Sharjah, saying that I have received his letter but
am going away for a time, and mentioning old times in a
friendly way.
I have the honour to be.
Sir,
Your most obedient servant.
Lieut. Colonel,
Pditlcal Agent, Bahrain,
