Text Appearing Before Image:
days prior toour arrival been lost in the snow on crossing the pass. Doubtless it will afford you some pleasure to learn that youhave earned quite a reputation among the natives, both Tibetanand Bhotias (Shokas), on account of your universal cordiality,generosity, and pluck. They are constantly inquiring about you,and relating your many good traits. Should you ever think of 249 IN THE FORBIDDEN LAND returning here you have made many friends, and you would geta very warm welcome from the natives. Dr. H. Wilson tells me that, when he took you over fromyour captors, the officials of Tibet, you were in a dying state, andthat he only just got you in the nick of time. How are youreyes and spine ? I trust they are quite well again. I look backwith pleasure to my tour up to the border with you, and our re-turn journey after your journey into Tibet proper, where youwere subjected to tortures by the Governor of the district thereof.With every good wish, Yours very sincerely, (Signed) J.
