In continuation of my letter No.255, dated 8 th March
1914, on the subject of Bin Sa’ud, I have the honour to
invite a reference to Mr. Lorimer's letter No.24, dated the
4th January 1914 on the subject and especially to the con
cluding portion of paragraph 4.
In view of the probability of early negotiations
between Bin Sa'ud and the Turks and the possibility of some
settlement bein< arrived at which might include a clause
excluding foreign merchants and Agents of Foreign powers
(vide paragraph 7 sub section (3) of my letter No,T»805
dated the 20th December 1913), I would observe that, if the
proposal to appoint a Native Agent Non-British agents affiliated with the British Government. at Qatif is approved, it
would appear advisable to expedite the matter and send the
selected man to Qatif without delaj.
