All that can be done at present, therefore, will be to warn all naturalized British subjects that it behoves them if they cross on to Chinese territory to be provided with a duly sealed and attested certificate of naturalization from the proper British authority and on entering any Consular district to exhibit the same at the Consul's Office and have their names inserted on the Consular Register; failing either or both of which precautionary measures they must accept the risks which would attach to them if unable to prove their British status at once and in a perfectly satisfactory manner. Owing to the proneness of Chinese to tamper with documents and their slight regard for truth, it might be necessary to attach a heavy penalty on anyone convicted of transferring or otherwise misusing such document.
With these details Trust J. J. Walrond is sufficiently informed on all the details, and will be furnished with the extracts obtained under both heads.
