    FRUS, 1871. China, p. 135
 The undersigned has the honor to acknowledge the receipt of your letter addressed to his excellency the minister, inclosing a copy of one from the government to the board of rites, Peking. The contents thereof have been made known to the minister and admiral; and I am instructed to reply that they regret to see a disposition on the part of the government to decline all friendly discussion of the business which his excellency is sent to transact; and instead of apologizing for the unprovoked attack upon our vessels, the course of the military authorities is justified.
 The admiral hoped it would prove that the attack was unauthorized, and that when the news of it came to the King he would disavow it, and send a high official to consult with the minister.
 The admiral concluded to allow sufficient time to elapse for this to be done before taking any further steps. Three of four days of the time allowed still remain, and if, at the expiration, no disposition is manifested on the part of His Majesty looking to peaceful consultation and arrangement, the admiral and minister will then feel at liberty to pursue such a course as they may deem proper. In consequence of the shortness of the time now remaining for you to come to a decision, I deem it better to send this short reply rather than wait to make a full answer to your note.
 The minister and admiral direct me to say that while they highly appreciate the kindly disposition manifested in sending the presents, they cannot, under existing circumstances, be accepted, and are therefore respectfully declined.
