**DE,TOLISYOD

Accompanied by the Basel Mission coolie I took 2,000 to the Li Long Basel Mission Station where I handed it over pers mally to Mr. Bitzer, Treasurer of the Mission, at about 2 p.m. on the 2nd. January, 1915.

Copy of receipt herewith, original handed over to Messrs. Lowe, Bingham and Mathews, I received the money personally from Mr. Blair of Love, Bingham & Mathews in the Hongkong and Shanghai Bank.

War pictures, Anti-British pictures or Newspapers

were not to be seen in the part of the Mission visited by me; I was looking for pictures of this kind. There are nine Europeans at Li Long, four females and five males, there are also some children.

I was informed that there are seventy five Europeans and about two hundred Chinese helpers attached to the eighteen Mission

Stations in the Haka Districts.

The few villagers interviewed seemed to be more or less ignorant of the European war; one old man who had spent several years in Queensland and who spoke English almost fluently appeared to be in no way "one-sided" in his remarks regarding the

European war.

My visit to Li Long Hission Station was a surprise one, I was not expected and I could not be seen approaching the Mission Station owing to the lay of the ground.
