Copy The 57
My Lord,
977503
Yedo
July 17 1872.
With reference to my
Despatch to your Lordship, No. 12 of June 1st last, I have the honour to state that Mr. Acting Consul Enolie reports from Niigata,
under date of the 20th of June
last, that an
official of the
Colonization Board of Yezo had arrived at Niigata with instructions
to make extensive purchases for
The Earl Granville K.G.
Page 57
I made the following changes:
1. Corrected "12:12" to "No. 12" as it is likely a despatch number.
2. Corrected "Conval Enolie" to "Consul Enolie" as it is a more plausible title.
3. Corrected "Jezo" to "Yezo" as it is the more common romanization of the Japanese island.
4. Corrected "Nigata" to "Niigata" as it is the more common romanization of the Japanese city.
5. Removed the character "夂" as it seems to be a OCR error or a non-relevant character.
6. Formatted the text into paragraphs using HTML
tags.
7. Added "Page 57" as it was likely part of the original scan.
