- Abstract: Translation of a despatch from Meerza Abul Hussan Khan [Mīrzā Abū al-Ḥasan Khān Shīrāzī, Foreign Minister of Persia] to the East India Company Envoy to Persia [Iran], Lieutenant-Colonel John Macdonald Kinneir. Meerza Abul Hussan Khan reports the arrival of three crores of tomans, which is part of the reparations to be paid to Russia as stipulated in the peace treaty to end the war between Russia and Persia [Russo-Persian War, 1826-1828], at Zinjan [Zanjan]. He indicates that he will meet Macdonald Kinneir at Zinjan in several days’ time, and requests that Macdonald Kinneir inform General Rozen [Grigory Vladimirovich Rozen] of the arrival of the money, so that the latter may inform the Russian Commander-in-Chief [General Ivan Fyodorovich Paskevich-Erivansky, Governor-General of Georgia], and so confirm the truth of Meerza Abul Hussan Khan’s report of the same nature.This document was originally enclosed, numbered 1 in enclosure No. 7, in Macdonald Kinneir’s letter to the Secret Committee of the East India Company of 16 March 1828 (IOR/L/PS/9/71/201).Physical description: 1 item (2 folios)
