Abstract | J. P. Riach letter to Charlotte Bass and Justin Perkins in which Riach explains that since his return he has been busy reading and writing letters to Tehran.

In relation to this, he says that if the Shah is off in Herat and does not return, some disaster may be the result. Riach also writes that he hears nothing about the Commercial Treaty and he has asked leave of McNeill to go to Joolamerk. |
