bring us the news, that the various market places in that region had also a gathering to discuss their plans.

The Christians were also frightened by the people there, but we at once wrote to the headman of that place, who is on friendly terms with us, to beg him to keep the people there in order.

By this I send you a copy of a pamphlet (with a rough translation) which was put up in a market place near Thonglak. We can trace the origin of this inflammatory pamphlet. The drift of it is the same as the speeches of the graduate, by which he instigated the people there to kill the Christians. Happily the Christians there are on good terms with the headmen of the place. These are always calling this stupid graduate to order. But he is a very furious man, who goes everywhere to stir up the people. Last week the headmen of the market Thonglak told the Christians they had better leave, because they can't protect them longer. This graduate should certainly be called to order by the Chinese Government.

In ordinary times there is not much to be feared by the issue of such stupid pamphlets. But in this troublous time such stupid productions of the literati are very dangerous.

I shall always inform you about all that is going on.
