- Native letters outward
- Scope & Content:
-
The file consists of letters drafted from the British Residency in the Persian Gulf:
- Draft letter to Abdullah bin Ahmed, acknowledging that properties of Adeed's merchants were plundered by the Bani Yas, not considering this as a good enough reason for British intervention, but promising to write to Shaikh Khulleefa ben Shackboot of Aboothabee [Khalīfah bin Shakhbūṭ, Chief of Abu Dhabi], asking him to return the goods (folios 2v-3);
- Draft letters to Shaikh Khulleefa ben Shackboot of Aboothabee, requesting the recovery of the goods plundered from the merchants of Adeed (folio 4 and 6v);
- Draft letters to Shaikh Sultan bin Suggur [Sulṭān bin Saqr, Chief of Ra's al-Khaymah] regarding his piracy acts (folios 5 and 5v-6).
As a result of the volume having been weeded in the past, there are truncated letters throughout the volume, some of which are identifiable by their having been crossed out in blue pencil.
