Abstract: The memorandum outlines the development of negotiations from 1871 to 1875 respecting the demarcation of the frontier between Persian Baluchistan and the State of Kelat [Kalat].

It largely draws on the opinions of Sir Frederic Goldsmid and Sir Henry Creswicke Rawlinson concerning the proposed status of Kohuk.The appendix consists of a copy of an amended note substituted for that signed by Charles Alison, Envoy Extraordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary to Persia, and Mirza Saeed Khan, Persian Minister for Foreign Affairs, on 1 September 1871. It outlines an agreement respecting the demarcation of the aforementioned frontier.Physical description: Foliation: the foliation sequence for this description commences at f 65 and terminates at f 71, as it is part of a larger physical volume; these numbers are written in pencil, and are located in the top right corner of the recto side of each folio.Pagination: the file also contains an original printed pagination sequence.
