Scope and content
Thank you for your letter informing that you have received news from Azimabad that that the enemies were having some bad thoughts and that Zubdat al-Tajjar/ chief trader Mr Watts would be giving me a detailed report on this matter. As a matter of fact this is the first time I have heard of this as Mr Watts had already left for Calcutta before I received your letter. If I hear or receive any bad news from there I will inform you at once and seek your help. -- Another, contemporary translation of the contents is CR8/1, entry no. 224.
