However, Mirza Fath Allah Khan, the provincial treasurer of Gilan, returned her payslip claiming that the money has been paid to Sardar Afkham. ʻAziz al-Saltanah writes about the hardship she has gone through and how she has been forced to sell or pledge her properties to make ends meet. She explains how a bath that belonged to her was taken over by the government two months ago, complains about the hardship, and reminds Nayib al-Saltanah that she has no husband to pay for her expenses. She asks Nayib al-Saltanah to investigate this matter. The letter is accompanied by an envelope, which has ʻAziz al-Saltanah's seal.
