Notes
This file contains correspondence related to the British Government's relationship with Ibn Sa'ud [‘Abd al-‘Azīz bin ‘Abd al-Raḥmān bin Fayṣal Āl Sa‘ūd]. Specifically, the correspondence concerns hostilities between the forces of Ibn Sa'ud and the Ikhwan during the rebellion led by Faisal al-Duwaish [Faysal al-Duwaysh], the movement of Ikhwan members and their followers into Kuwaiti territory, tensions between Ibn Sa'ud and Kuwait, and reports of support for the rebellion coming from the Government of Iraq.Much of the correspondence in the file is between British officials at the Political Agency in Kuwait, the Political Residency in Bushire and the High Commission in Iraq, but the file also contains copies of letters, in Arabic with English translations, from Ibn Sa'ud (including a letter of condolence after the death of Sir Gilbert Clayton, folios 138-141) and Fuad Bey Hamza, a diplomatic representative of Ibn Sa'ud's.In addition to correspondence, the file also contains a number of accounts of the Battle of Injayr (also spelt Inqayr) that took place on 5 October 1929 (folios 83-7 & 96-100) and a hand-drawn sketch map of the events of the battle (folio 88). | 1 file (201 folios) | The papers are arranged in approximate chronological order from the front to the rear of the file. | Foliation: the main foliation sequence (used for referencing) commences at the front cover with 1, and terminates at the inside back cover with 203; these numbers are written in pencil, are circled, and are located in the top right corner of the recto side of each folio.
