OPT. No.60.

Enclosure 2.

C.O. 17043 KECO

Received 3 JUL 19

Colonial Secretary's Office,

Hong Kong, 31st May, 1899.

Sir,

I am directed to transmit for your information copy of a letter from Mr. Schaub of the Basel Mission and to state that as German Missionaries have requested the Governor to forward their application for protection, His Excellency begs that you will transmit it to the Viceroy of Canton.

The rumours of 'disturbance' are probably exaggerated but His Excellency would regret exceedingly if any attack either upon the British troops or upon the Basel Mission at Li Long were to necessitate any movement of Her Majesty's troops to the north of Sham Chún Valley.

I have &c.

Signed) J. G. T. Buckle.

The Colonial Secretary,

Britannic Majesty's Consul,

CANTON.
