- Abstract: The memorandum consists of a number of notes authored by the following: Sir Hugh Barnes, Sir Dennis Fitzpatrick, Sir John Edge, and Sir William Lee-Warner; all members of the Council of India.The notes discuss whether or not Britain should advance a further loan to Persia, and what concessions should be obtained in return if it does; the British desire to limit the growth of Russian influence in Persia. It is therefore debated as to whether the revenues of the Southern Ports and/or Seistan [Sīstān] could be obtained, along with a possible railway concession in Southern Persia in order to deny it to Russia.Physical description: Foliation: the foliation sequence commences at f 1, and terminates at f 7, 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.
