Letter no.33 of 1855 from Henry Anderson, Secretary to the Government of Bombay, to Captain Arnold Kemball, Resident in the Persian Gulf
Date:
1855/1855
Description:
The letter relates to previous correspondence from the Government of Bombay, approving of Kemball’s actions in the Gulf relating to unrest in Bahrain. Anderson writes that the Government is apprehensive that its previous instructions suggested unlimited authority in using arms against the Wahhābī forces, and that it now seeks to state that ‘warlike measures’ that could lead to the deployment of British troops cannot be sanctioned.1 folio
