- Content
The letter is an acknowledgement of receipt of Jones’s earlier letter, relating to correspondence with Shaikh Sultan bin Suggar [Sultan bin Saqr], the chief of Sharjah, over compensation claims relating to the theft of cargo from a shipwrecked vessel at Sharjah. Anderson writes that Jones, in his letter to Shaikh Sultan, should not have alluded to the testimonies made to the Chief Magistrate at Bombay, if he believed them to be false. Otherwise, the Resident’s actions are approved of by Government.
