permit the land holder to hold their lands before, but then also stupid natives Дашдорж who were frightened beforehand. I am of opinion that it would be more wise if England would at an early date clear the doubts of the matter by issuing an expressed notification.
Extract from letter from Mr. J. Dr. Ball, Actg Registrar General & Mr. T. Sercombe Smith, Actg Secretary, under date 31st Oct. "I have made inquiries by trustworthy officers as to whether the allegations in the 5th para: of an article in the Daily Press of the 3rd October headed 'Extension of the Colony' are true or not."
The village of Kam Tin had prepared themselves for some time past, in fact for years, against the risk by an armament of weapons of defence; and, it was important to me that they were prepared to oppose the advent of the British should it mean the taking of their lands. I found that amounting to more than $100,000 was already in hand, made up from the income from Ancestral Property owned by the village of Kam Tin, and a levy on property of $... per $1000.
