difficulty of getting information from natives of the place, it is not
as complete as I could wish. I have been supplied with state
ments of cargo imported by agents of British India and Bombay
and Persian Steam Companies, and by the former with statements
of exports also. Messrs. Lynch’s agent has also given me all
the information he could.
I have, &c.
