- Abstract: Copy of a letter from the East India Company Envoy to Persia [Iran], Lieutenant-Colonel John Macdonald Kinneir, to Manucheher Khan [Manūchihr Khān Gurjī, Mu‘tamid al-Dawlah], of 8 February 1828. Macdonald Kinneir indicates that negotiations for the finalisation of the peace treaty negotiated to end the war between Russia and Persia [Russo-Persian War, 1826-1828] will not be renewed until General Paskevitch [General Ivan Fyodorovich Paskevich-Erivansky, Governor-General of Georgia] has received intelligence that the first instalment of the reparations payments from Persia have reached Miana [Mianeh]. He also states that he has repeatedly stressed the importance of paying the money quickly, and reports that General Paskevitch will evacuate Miana once he is assured of the sincerity of the Shah of Persia's [Fatḥ-‘Alī Shāh Qājār] desire for peace.This document was originally enclosed, numbered 5 in enclosure No. 12, 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)
