About this item

Content

The file concerns an order from the Deputy Governor, Henjam (acting on the instructions of the Government of Persia) that all vessels in Henjam (including British naval vessels flying the white ensign and using the Royal Indian Navy depot there) should be registered and numbered.

The papers indicate that British officials though that registration was probably not a Persian challenge to the British position at Henjam. Registration was eventually postponed by the Persian Government.

The file includes correspondence from the Admiralty and HM Minister, Tehran.
