532/27.
From Commissioner for Foreign Affairs,
Canton.
31st December, 1927.
Sir,
I have the honour to refer to the third protest
which my predecessor presented to you on the 10th
November in regard to shops and houses burnt at
Tai Ping su and Fu Li Tsun by British warships.
He also enclosed a list of claims and requested that
those responsible be punished and that a guarantee
be provided that such conduct would not be repeated.
I now find that there are certain claims not
included in the original list which I forward to
you herewith with the request that you will transmit
them to the Governor of Hongkong that they and the
matters enumerated in my predecessor's letter referred
to above may be at once dealt with. I have also to
request that I may be favoured with a reply.
(Sgd) Chu Chao-hsin.
Commissioner for Foreign Affairs.
