Sir,
In continuation of the correspondence ending’ with my letter
No. 76-S., dated the 19th January, I have the honour to forward
No. 22-0,. dat ed 'January 1922.} herewith a copy of a memorandum
from the Political agent, Bahrain, (giving cover to a petition made
to him by 64 represent stive Bahrainis. I have retained tho original
petition and only for;:ardod tho translation.
The matters referred to in Bahrain letters 12-^rnd 13-0 were
dealt with in my letter jbove-montionod,
I think there can bo little doubt that Sheikh «bdulla is at
the bottom of these affaire, and that best way to quiet matters
would be to insist on Sieikh Psa agreeing* to deport him as was done
in tho case of sheikh «li bin alined in 1905, and hope that. Govern^

ment will be pleased to give this proposal their serious considera­
tion.
I heye, otc.,

Sd/- u.P. Trevor,
Lieut-Col.,
Political Resident in the Persian Gulf.
