but to avail ourselves of Lord Morley's Kind offer to ask
the Government of India if they can spare the services of
an Officer for the purposes of the proposed survey, on
the understanding that the whole of the cost is to be de
frayed by our Company.-
I shall therefore be obliged if you will kindly cause
this request to be put forward, at the same time explain-
ing:-
(1) that the officer should bring with him one or two
native assistants should be consider their services nec
essary.
(2) that the whole party should leave for Mohamrnerah
as soon as possible in order to begin operations at the
commencement of the cold weather.
(3) that Messrs. Shaw Wallace and Company of Bombay
or Karachi will on application arrange for passages &c.
(4) that on arrival at Mohammerah the officer should
