Letter confirming that the chiefs on both coasts of the Gulf will be warned that the East India Company is intending to take strong actions against any boats engaged in piracy. Any boats that do not heed warnings to desist may be taken possession of and brought to Bombay.
The letter also explains that boats from Bushire are no longer prepared to travel to Ras el Khima [Ras al-Khaimah], and that the success of the Joassemees's [Qasimis] recent raids had both increased their strength and encouraged other ports on the south coast to emulate them.
