- Scope & Content:
-
Copy of a letter from HM Minister Plenipotentiary to the Ottoman Empire, Stratford Canning, to HM Envoy Extraordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary to Persia [Iran], Sir Harford Jones, of 22 August 1810. The letter relates to the return of the Persian Ambassador to France, Askar Khan [Askar Khan Afshar], to Persia, accompanied by a French envoy, Georges Outrey, who is reportedly ‘charged with a special mission to the Court of Persia’. Canning is writing to inform Jones and to assure him that he will do everything in his power to hinder Outrey’s journey. The letter also details events from the ongoing conflicts in Europe, including the French occupation of Holland [the Netherlands], the fighting in Spain, and the war between Russia and Turkey [Ottoman Empire].
The letter was enclosed in Jones’s secret letter of 14 September 1810, which was received on 6 February 1811.
