- Title:
- Arabia. Agreement with the Idrisi Saiyid regarding the Farasan Islands and other matters
- Scope & Content:
-
Three documents are included in this file: the 'Supplementary Agreement concluded between His Majesty's Government and Saiyid Muhammad Bin Ali Bin Ahmed Bin Idrisi, the Idrisi' which was negotiated by Harold Fenton Jacob, First Assistant Resident Agent, Aden, and which recognises the ownership of the Farasan Islands by the Idrisi and guarantees British support in protecting the islands from hostile action; a letter from James Marshall Stewart, Political Resident in Aden, relating to his views on the agreement; and a 'Memorandum on the supplementary engagement concluded with the Idrisi Saiyad on 22nd January 1917' by H F Jacob. The latter document touches upon the hostility between the Turkish [Ottomans] and the Idrisi; it also discusses the Idrisi's concerns over whether Britain will win the First World War, and how this would impact upon the agreement and on future relations with the Turks.
