- A request from Khooshal [Khvushḥāl], a native of Tatta [Thatta] in Sinde [Sindh], for protection for himself and his compatriots residing at Bahrein [Bahrain], who he claims are subject to the exactions of the followers of Mahomed bin Khuleefa [Shaikh Muḥammad bin Khalīfah Āl Khalīfah], the Ruler of Bahrein. Included is a ‘list of the Hindoos residing in Bahrein with the place of their birth’

- A copy of instructions issued by Hennell to Lieutenant Arnold Burrowes Kemball, Assistant Resident in the Persian Gulf, for his forthcoming trip to the Arabian coast of the Gulf. These mostly relate to the conflict that has broken out as a result of the erection by Shaik Sultan bin Suggur of a fort at Khan [Al Khan], contrary to an earlier promise he made to suspend its construction
- A report that Houssein Khan [Muḥammad Ḥusayn Khān Muqaddam Marāgha’i], the Governor of Fars, has sent a force to Bunder Abass [Bandar-e ʻAbbas], and that the Governor of Bunder Abass, Shaik Syf [Shaikh Sayf bin Nabhān al-Ma‘walī], has appealed to Syed Soowenee for help.
