in the Hinterland. All our missionaries are very thankful that the British Government will render us help, whenever we should be in real danger. As soon as this should be the case, I would write to you. But I hope that it will not come to that. I always exhort the people not to believe all the wild rumours and to help to spread them like a wild fire. But the rout in Taipo &c. 2 months ago taught me not lightly to disbelieve various rumours.

Before the rout there I heard a good deal of all what the Chinese were planning, but I would not believe it. By this time I know that there is something to be wisely searched out if possible when such rumours are afloat.

With kindest regards.

Yours Faithfully,
