- Vol 25: Letters Outward
- Scope & Content:
-
The volume consists of letters sent outwards from the Bushire Residency, along with correspondence sent by the Resident, Captain William Bruce, while away from Bushire. It covers the administrative proceedings of the Bushire Residency, and matters related to the British force stationed at Bassidore [Bāsaʻīdū] on the island of Qeshm. As well as political affairs in the Persian Gulf current in 1822.
Some of the correspondence in the volume also relates to legal proceedings initiated by ‘Abd al-Raḥīm Khān against the Resident in the Bombay courts, in relation to the Resident's handling of the estate of the late Muḥammad Nabī Khān. It also covers the events surrounding the Resident's summons to Shiraz by Prince Ḥusayn ‘Alī Mirzā, and the unauthorised signing of a treaty ceding Bahrain to Persia; a set of affairs that would lead to William Bruce's dismissal from the post of Resident of Bushire in December 1822.

Condition: The file has suffered from pest damage, though for the most part the legibility of the text remains unaffected. The main exception being a series of holes, which run through ff 3-10 and ff 28-47; the largest of these holes are approximately 2cm in diameter, and these do obscure the text in places, which can result in some of the content being difficult to read. The paper is also fragile, and should be handled with care.
Foliation: The foliation sequence commences at the front cover with 1, 2, 2a-2d, 3-83, and terminates at the back cover; these numbers are written in pencil, are circled, and can be found in the top right corner of the recto side of each folio.
Pagination: A pagination sequence is also present between ff 3-83; these numbers are also written in pencil, but are not circled, and can be found in the top outermost corners of each page.
