HC Deb 08 June 1910 vol 17 c827
Mr. SPEAKER

I have to report to the House that I have received from the President of the Medjlis of Persia a telegram, of which the following is a translation:— Teheran, 12th May, 1910. At the moment when the British nation mourns its terrible loss, the Medjlis, imbued with a deep feeling of profound sympathy, directs me to transmit to the House of Commons an expression of its own great affliction at the loss of a man who, quite apart from the greatness of his reign as a Sovereign, is entitled to the gratitude of humanity. President of the Medjlis, MOSTECHAREDOOLET.

Mr. SPEAKER

The House will probably desire me to send a suitable reply.
