\^ „
I have the hounour to refer to my despatchj No. 489 of the 21 st |
September on the subject of the re-arrangement of the Sistan and Kerman
Consular district and to transmit to you herewith copy of a despatch§ address-
ed to me by His Majesty’s Consul at Kerman in which, it will be seen.
Major Noel offers certain comments on the boundary suggested in my
despatch under reference.
2. The maps at my disposal are not such as to enable me to follow with
any real accuracy the possible alternatives, and the boundary suggested in my
despatch under reference must therefore be regarded as purely tentative.
My proposals were based on various reports rendered- to me by the Consular
officers concerned as appearing, after a perusal of these reports, to be most
generally acceptable.
3. It is obviously of the greatest importance to get the best possible
boundary and I shall await the views both of His Majesty’s Consul at Sistan
and the Government of India before putting definite proposals before you.
4. A copy of this despatch has been sent to the Foriegn Secretary to
the Government of India and to His Majesty’s Consuls at Sistan and
Kerman.
