The following account of the murder in Tibet of the Frenchmen, Pere Nussbaum and M. Liotard appeared in the "N. C. D. News," Shanghai, having been sent from Tachienlu on October 25.
Yesterday M. Guibaut left the plains below. Soon after his arrival here he told us something about the shooting of his companion, M. Liotard. Apparently they had reached the wild robber Golok country so ran every known risk of being shot robbed or kidnapped. Both travellers knew what they were in for, so were quite prepared to fire the first shot.
