Abstract: Copy of Dispatch No. 12 from HM Minister Plenipotentiary to Russia, Edward Cromwell Disbrowe, in St Petersburgh [St Petersburg], to HM Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, the Earl of Dudley, of 27 January 1828 [Old Style]/ 8 February 1828 [New Style]. Disbrowe reports the intention of the former HM Chargé d’Affaires to Persia [Iran], Henry Willock, to travel to Persia to transmit a communication from the Emperor of Russia to the Persian Government as soon as the winter weather permits, following delays to his setting out at the request of the Emperor. He also reports that Willock’s prolonged residence in St Petersburgh has been ‘decidedly useful’, allowing Disbrowe to communicate with the Russian Foreign Minister, Count [Karl Robert] Nesselrode, with ‘more firmness’.This document was originally enclosed, numbered 2, in Willock’s letter to the Secretary to the East India Company, Joseph Dart, of 10 March 1828 (IOR/L/PS/9/71/195).Physical description: 1 item (2 folios)
