Sir,

As regards the Basel Mission at Li Long, on June 3rd., I received your despatch, whereupon I sent flying instructions, directing the civil and military authorities on the spot to afford proper protection. Yesterday on receipt of your Note, I telegraphed to the same effect, as I have already informed you.

I have just now received a telegraphic report from the Tung Kun Magistrate, Mr. Kiu, in acknowledgment of my special instructions." He says: "I was already aware that alarm prevailed among the converts at 李... and 清田 and accordingly on June 2nd., I sent out police, communicated with the military authorities, and ordered the gentry to warn the people and keep them in order, and to protect the Mission station and converts. On the same day I proceeded myself to the place to investigate matters and restore confidence so that all disturbance might be avoided".
