Notes
The file contains correspondence relating to the detention and temporary deportation from Kuwait to Basra, of Salih Sasoon Mahlab, a Jewish merchant. Following official enquiries, the suspicion that Salih Sasoon Mahlab (also spelt Nahlab) was charging excessive brokerage on goods he bought from Kuwait merchants and sold to British Government officials, was disproved and he was allowed to return to Kuwait and resume his business. The main correspondents are Shaikh Salim El Mubarak as Subah [Āl Ṣabāḥ, Shaikh Sālim bin Mubārak], Captain Percy Gordon Loch, the British Political Agent, Kuwait and Lieutenant Colonel Evelyn Berkeley Howell, the Deputy Civil Commissioner, Basra. The petition from Salih Sasoon Mahlab to the Ruler of Kuwait and the letters exchanged between the Ruler of Kuwait and the British Political Agent at Kuwait are in Arabic. | 1 file (17 folios) | File papers are arranged in chronological order. | Foliation: the foliation sequence commences at the front cover with 1 and terminates at the inside back cover with 19; these numbers are written in pencil, are circled, and are located in the top right corner of the recto side of each folio.
