!" It reads like a deliberate expression of the Amir's resolve to have nothing to do with the British Government, instead of a desperate appeal against the cruel self-will which was robbing him of all chance of resuming his old friendly relations with it. The concluding words are not to be found in the letter, nor to be inferred from anything it contains. 214 THE SECOND AFGHAN WAR Mission should be honourably received in Kabul, if only time were granted him in which to make arrangements for the...ir coming, freely and in his own way. That his argument admitted of misconception seems, however, soon to have struck either the Amir himself, or some one of his advisers, for on the morrow of this interview, the Wazir told the Nawab that his master had not invited the Russians to Kabul, but that when once they had crossed the Oxus, he had been compelled by the exposed state of the country and the estrangement of England, to allow them to proceed. ^ Both the Amir's statement and that of his minister were true, and taken together they throw an instruc- tive light on the character and methods of the former.
