Bear Colonel Prideaux,
I enclose oopy of a letter which I have addressed to Major
.lore at Xoweit regarding a visit by His Excellency the Shaikh of
Howeit to our operations at Maidan-i-ITaftun from the 25th to the
29tn of t^uly and his further visit to me here and to our Refinery
at Abadan on the 14th of August.
His Excellency appeared to be very greatly impressed with
all he had seen and he openly stated that he was more than ever
convinced that the Anglo-Persian Oil Company alone was in a posi
tion to xaithfully carry out the terms of a Concession for oil
development within his territory.
I sincerely trust that it may now be possible to press
forward to a conclusion our negotiations with the Shaikh of
-oweit, in which direction my Company will greatly esteem the
continuance of your kind offices.
I remain,
Y 0 ui^-sl-Bp e r e 1 y,
