REG 22 JUN 18
We beg leave to submit the original of a letter
dated Paris 5th June inst we have received from M. Jean
Audinet of the Compagnie Generale D'Extreme-Orient.
K. Audinet's Company does a considerable business
with our friends Hesers, Jardine, Matheson & Co. Ltd. of
Hongkong, and is well known to us.
You will see from M. Audinet's letter that the
Tribunal of Commerce or Lyons requires proof from him that
Melchers & Co. of Hongkong and China is a German firm, and
we beg leave to request that you will be so obliging as to
issue a certificate that the fim of Melchers & Co. of
Hongkong and China has been liquidated in Hongkong as
German firm.
Your compliance will be a great convenience to
1. Audinet and ourselves, as it will avoid the delay which
would be incurred in communicating with Hongkong.
We are,
Sir,
Your obedient Servante,
ex Rosa
