- Description:
- Abstract: Translation of a letter from the East India Company Envoy to Persia [Iran], Lieutenant-Colonel John Macdonald Kinneir, to the Sardar of Erivan, Hassan Khan Sardar [Ḥasan Qulī Khān Qājār, Sardar of Iravan or Yerevan]. Macdonald Kinneir reports that the information regarding the arrival of reparations payments from Persia to Russia at Mianna [Mianeh] given in Hassan Khan Sardar’s previous letter (IOR/L/PS/9/71/246) has proved incorrect, leaving General Paskewitch [General Ivan Fyodorovich Paskevich-Erivansky, Governor-General of Georgia] ‘much displeased’. He indicates that once the first instalment of the money has reached Mianna, the Russian troops there will evacuate that place, and that a location will be fixed for the conclusion of the peace treaty to end the war between Russia and Persia [Russo-Persian War, 1826-1828] with the Prince Royal [ʿAbbās Mīrzā Qājār, Crown Prince of Persia].This document was originally enclosed, numbered 2 in enclosure No. 13, 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 (1 folio)
