- Title:
- ‘Translation of a Letter addressed by H.E. Mirza Abul Hassan Khan to His Btc Majesty’s Principal Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs’
- Scope & Content:
-
Translation of a letter from the Persian Minister for Foreign Affairs, Mirza Abul Hassan Khan [Mirza Abū al-Ḥasan Khan Shīrāzī], to HM Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, George Canning. The letter revokes a previous communication from the Persian Government (not included in this item) rejecting the mission of Lieutenant-Colonel John Macdonald Kinneir to the Persian Court to serve as East India Company Envoy to Persia, and confirms the Persian Government’s approval and permission for the establishment of the mission.
Included in this document is an additional translation of a letter from Mirza Abul Hassan Khan to Canning entitled ‘Confidential Inclosure in the Persian Secretary’s Letter to the Right Honble George Canning’. This enclosure requests that Macdonald Kinneir should bring with him to Persia a letter from the King of Great Britain to the Persian Government, to assist him in his duties as envoy.
This document was originally enclosed, numbered 3, in Willock’s letter to the Secret Committee of the East India Company of 10 September 1825 (IOR/L/PS/9/70/39).
