and fifty rupees Indian silver coin also widely used in the Persian Gulf. . No trace can be found of a request that
the Imperial Government should accept a moiety of the cost of
the temporary retention of the quarantine Medical Officer at
Lingah. In this connexion reference is invited to India
Office letter of the 22nd May 1928 (P.2633) transmitting a
copy of a telegram from the Government of India stating that
they were prepared to finance the quarantine for six months in
view of the interests of India. I am to state that this
telegram was interpreted as an undertaking by the Government
of India to bear the whole cost of the temporary retention of
the quarantine Medical Officer during the transition period of '
the transference of the quarantine Service to the Government ofj
Persia. I am to enquire whether this interpretation was
correct.
