Victoria, Sloughing,

1st February, 1848.

I have to acknowledge the receipt of

a note from Your Excellency, informing

me that the gentry of the clan of Hwang aktwan

duly handed over 1630 Dollars, being 1173 Taels and

some

Mune

in

weight.

I before informed your Excellency that

I had caused restitution to be made to the

owner

of a Junk which had been run down by

Larkins's Steamer - and now you

have in return done a similar act of justice, for which I have to convey my acknowledgements.

This while we both observe the Treaties and Agreements, there will be reciprocal friendship, and no evil consequences can

ensue.

His Excellency, Keying,

High Imperial Commissioner,
