of 1903, 1904 and 1905, respecting the Aden Boundary.
As Yiscoimt Peel is aware, this Convention was never
ratified, and it is undesirable, on general grounds,
to publish in a compilation of this character an
unratified instrument, possessing no binding force. The

circumstances I am to express the hope that this
Convention may be omitted from the publication which it
is now proposed to issue.
5. A copy of this letter is being sent to the
Colonial Office.

Your obedient Servant,
