- Scope & Content:
- Copy of a letter from the Chief Secretary to the Supreme Government of India, George Swinton, in Fort William, to HM Chargé d’Affaires to Persia [Iran], Henry Willock, of 27 January 1826. The letter is in reply to Willock’s letter to the Governor-General of India, Lord Amherst, of 23 July 1825 (IOR/L/PS/9/70/44), in which is discussed the possible provision of British officers to train the armed forces of the Prince Royal of Persia [Crown Prince of Persia, 'Abbās Mīrzā Qājār]. Swinton indicates that Lord Amherst intends to recommend the Prince Royal’s requests for military assistance, including for officers and shrapnel shells, to the Court of Directors of the East India Company, but advises that the Prince Royal should not expect that the British Government would pay for any officers employed in training his armed forces.
