Sir,

Sir Edward Grey to Li Ching-fong.

Foreign Office, April 19, 1910.

I HAVE the honour to acknowledge the receipt of your note of the 18th instant, in which you were good enough to inform me, under instructions from Peking, that Sir R. Bredon has tendered his resignation, which has been accepted by the Imperial Chinese Government, and that he will shortly leave for home.

I beg to thank you for this communication.

I have, &c.

E. GREY.
