Abstract: The file opens with a letter by Brigadier-General William Crawford Walton, General Officer Commanding, Aden, to the Secretary to the Government of India in the Foreign Department.

Attached to the letter are two enclosures which largely support Walton's ideas. The first enclosure is written by Colonel Robert Alexander Wauhope, Political and Military Intelligence Officer, Aden, and details the history of 'The Boundary of the Aden Protectorate'. The second enclosure is written by Lieutenant-Colonel Harold Fenton Jacob, First Assistant Resident, Aden, and provides information on 'A Political Policy in our Hinterland'.Physical description: Foliation: the foliation sequence for this description commences at f 43, and terminates at f 48, as it is part of a larger physical volume; these numbers are written in pencil, are circled, and are located in the top right corner of the recto side of each folio.
