- Title:
- Letter No.522 of 1870 from Colonel William Lockyer Merewether, The Commissioner in Sind, Kurrachee [Karāchi] to Colonel Robert Phayre, the Political Superintendent, Upper Sind Frontier
- Scope & Content:
-
Letter informing the Colonel that he should have rebuked the son of the Boogtee Chief for his attempts to address a petition to the Khan, and that the Colonel had overlooked the fact that the intent of the Boogtee was to get the Colonel to permit and confirm his intention to ignore the Khan as his sovereign and the insult made to him by making such a request.
The letter goes on to remind the Colonel of the actions taken by the Khan in the past to keep control of the tribes who are subject to him, and that he should have taken notice of the conduct of these tribes in acting in a disrespectful manner, but that instead he had fixated on a minor point regarding the application of the term 'Khan of Beloochistan [Baluchistan] which Merewether believes was used correctly by the Vakeel to demonstrate the Khan's responsibility to the whole of Beloochistan and not just to Khelat.
