tinder Hesdiency Ho 260 of
In para 4 of ITo 14/220 it is mentioned that H .M T s Foreign
office agree^d to the expulsion of this individual vide Telegram
Ho I63 of I7th July 1910 from the legation to the Kesident.
in this connection I may add that I recently had occasion
to meet the individual%referred to f and as he,had been responsiole
during Hamadhan for stirring up trouble among various factions of
the Persians I hinted to him that I was aware that previous
Political Agents h^d found it necessary to severely warn him,and
that I also had grounds for dissatisfaction at his recent behaviour.
I have since learnt thst this conversation considerably
frightened him and he has since not attempted to taxe par l- in
any intrigues.
As you are aware my sister spent several
months of last cold weather hera.When she was about to leave tor
India, I had occassion to endorse her passport.It then came to my
- notice that it had been vised at the Persian Embassy in London and
a fee charged, for whioh Persian stamps had been affixed. My sister
explained that the passport was obtained fors her Say agents (King So
Co) and it may have been sent to the Persian Embassy by them in
ignorance .Nevertheless they took the opportunity to Tise it and
collect fees, and it would perhaps seem advisable th4t British
authorities issuing passports to Bahrain should clearly mark thereon
that no further endorsement at a Foreign Smbassy is necessary.
