- Title:
- ‘Translation of a letter from Houssein Khan Sirdar of Erivan to Colonel Macdonald Envoy’
- Scope & Content:
-
Translation of a letter from the Sirdar of Erivan, Houssein Khan Sirdar [Ḥusayn Qulī Khān Qājār, Sardar of Iravan or Yerevan], to the East India Company Envoy to Persia [Iran], Lieutenant-Colonel John Macdonald Kinneir. Houssein Khan Sirdar reports that an instalment of three crores of tomans, intended to be paid to Russia as reparations as part of the peace treaty negotiated to end the war between Russia and Persia [Russo-Persian War, 1826-1828], will arrive at Miana [Mianeh] on ‘Tuesday the 18th’. He indicates that the Shah of Persia [Fatḥ-‘Alī Shāh Qājār] has requested that Miana be evacuated by Russian troops once the money has arrived there, and requests that Macdonald Kinneir explain this to the Russian General-in-Chief [General Ivan Fyodorovich Paskevich-Erivansky, Governor-General of Georgia] so that the necessary arrangements can be made.
This document was originally enclosed, numbered 1 in enclosure No. 13, in Macdonald Kinneir’s letter to the Secret Committee of the East India Company of 16 March 1828 (IOR/L/PS/9/71/201).
