PERSIA ACCOUNTS.
1707-1708. Immediately on his arrival in Persia in 1707, John Scattergood appears to have occupied himself in settling up the affairs of Henry Bradshaw, with which task he had been entrusted by Governor Thomas Pitt, from whose Letter Books (B.M. Add. MSS. 22850, No. 86) we learn that Henry Bradshaw was the son of Samuel Bradshaw of Holbrooke, Derbyshire, that he was chief supercargo of the Nathanid, East Indiaman, and that he was preparing to go to Isfahan when he died. He left a will appointing his father executor, and Thomas Pitt and Gulston Addison, trustees, which last "put the care of his estate, which is all there [in Persia), under Mr. Lock the Agent, and Mr. Scattergood, with orders to remit the produce to us."
