Ping Yang River, April 27, 1868
Sir:
Your two dispatches dated the 25th and 26th inst., have been received. I am happy to learn that my dispatch to His Majesty the Emperor has been forwarded and shall await the reply at some convenient anchorage near the mouth of the river. I have made a report of my boats having been fired upon from a Military Station to your Government, the reply will be forwarded to my Government for its decision in the case. The mistake in regard to the distance of my country in answer to your queries on that subject occurred in translating the original letter into Chinese. The distance we are forced to sail is about 50,000 li, not 500,000.
The dispatch was prepared in haste by night, which probably occasioned the oversight.
