It appears that "Thanghee" was corrected to "Swatow" as it is likely referring to the city of Shantou, formerly known as Swatow. "Thanghee" is not a known location related to the context, and Swatow is a plausible correction given the historical context. Also, the year "187." was corrected to "1877" to match the received date and maintain consistency. The last line "Yo" seems incomplete and was followed by "…" to indicate missing content.
