Peasants to Anis al-Dawlah, 1894

A telegram from the peasants of Shaykh Garden in Savah (which was part of the crown lands of Hazrat ‘Abd al-‘Azim) to Anis al-Dawlah. They talk about their debt to the Court and state that after the garden was purchased by Zahir al-Saltanah, the peasants have been suffering from the injustice. The new owner has acquired 70 tumans more than their actual debt, which is beyond their financial means. In this letter, the peasants ask Anis al-Dawlah to act on their behalf before Nasir al-Din Shah. They request justice and for the extra money to be returned to them.

A letter of request from Muhammad Riza Ashtiyani Banan al-Dawlah to an unidentified person regarding a document handwritten by Nasir al-Din Shah about the enforcement of his royal command for the payment of a stipend to the late Nur Muhammad Khan's children. The letter mentions that after the murder of Nasir al-Din Shah, the author sent a letter to Muzaffar al-Din Shah, but never received a reply, which caused them great concern. The writer also indicates that Anis al-Dawlah and Mirza Hamd Allah Khan have recommended the payment of this salary but their recommendations have not proven useful.
