The only objection to a Blockade only is this, that although it would effectually prevent European ships and large packs following the River, there are so many narrow channels all over the vast Delta Below Canton, that a trade in small native craft must continue, and the Blockade's hopes of starving the city would be frustrated.
I hardly ... My Despatch No. 219. Of December 28th I proposed in addition to a Blockade, the retention of Dane's Island (an admirable position at Whampoa) in severity for the fulfilment of Treaty rights. Short of this might demand the possession of sufficient space on that Island for the residences and warehouses of our merchants, and propose the entire capture of it as the alternative.
The possession of Dane's Island, however, separately includes the demolition of the River defences up to Whampoa ... in our view.
If the object is only quietly to remove the trade from Canton to the other Ports and to Hongkong, Letter Jeannot imagine any mode than the accord proposition.

However, to fully adhere to the original request and the rules, a more accurate representation maintaining the original line breaks and word order (while correcting spelling and spacing) would be ideal. Given the constraints and the original text's condition, the above response attempts to balance between the rules and the practicality of correcting a heavily fragmented OCR output. To perfectly follow the format and instructions, the initial response is kept, with adjustments for minor corrections and adherence to the rules.Boa
