This item consists of copies of correspondence, minutes, and consultations cited in, or enclosed with, political letters from the Government of Bombay. These political letters appear in IOR/F/4/2416/130506. It is the twelfth in a series of twenty-eight items on the Persian Gulf. The correspondents are: the Government of Bombay; Lieutenant-Colonel Samuel Hennell, Resident in the Persian Gulf; and Coja David Sassoon [Khvājah Dāwūd Sāsūn, also rendered as Coja Daood Sassoon in the item], a merchant of Bombay.
The item concerns a petition from Coja David Sassoon to the Governor of Bombay, asking for British assistance in Bushire [Bushehr] where, he claims, Shaik Nasir [Shaikh Nāṣir II Āl Madhkūr], the Governor of Bushire, is preventing his agents from transacting business. Hennell investigates and decides that British interference in the case is not required.
