Dear CoL Trevor",
%
I thank you for your letter of the 18th ult.,
also for your further kindnesses in connection with the Contract
with the Sheikh of Shargah.
I note that the Sheikh would like a couple of
Magazine Rifles and a small quantity of Ammunition, and 1
thank you for the "No objection certificate" you send for these
to be exported to the Persian Gulf The historical term used to describe the body of water between the Arabian Peninsula and Iran. . I have given the order
for the Rifles and Ammunition and as the former must not be
of *303 calibre, I am sending -450 and I trust the latter will
prove a suitable calibre. 1 shall endeavour to have them sent,
as you suggest, to Shargah via Debai.
You may bo interested to know that Mr .Habakkuk got
to work as soon as he reached the Island, and although my Firm
has not yet received the samples which he has despatched, we
understand by cable, they are of a promising nature.
Yours sincerely.
Llout. Col. A. P. Trevor, C.S.I., C .1 .E .,
