doubt take it to the Governor. I fancy Mr. Schaub rather exaggerates the case; for another Missionary Gentleman called upon me to-day saying he had come from somewhere near Lilong and that the people are uneasy because they fear British aggression into their Territory. Perhaps however you would kindly warn the Police & troops at Un Long & Ping Shan to be on the alert, and that I shall reinforce from here if necessary and am appealed to. Strange to say the bearer of the report, is a youth named Tung On Sue who speaks English and Chinese well and is anxious to take service with me. I at once took him on as Interpreter.
