We shall feel greatly obliged if you will submit to the Earl of Elgin the copy documents forwarded herewith, viz:-

Minutes of First Meeting at Canton on the 16th December 1905 between the Viceroy of Canton's Deputies and the Representative of the British and Chinese Corporation, H. B. M. Vice Consul being present.
Minutes of Second Meeting at Canton on the 19th December 1905.

The Earl of Elgin will see from the documents that the Viceroy of Canton has not only refused to consider the draft Final Agreement for the Canton Kowloon Railway Loan, submitted to him by our Representative, but has demanded the cancellation of the Preliminary Agreement, the validity of which is unimpeachable.

The facts are probably known to the Earl of Elgin
