Colonel Neale to Mr. Pruyn
[Enclosure No. 4.]
Yokohama, April 25, 1863.
Sir: I have the honor to inform you that communications have been made to me in urgent terms by the Japanese ministers, which have resulted in the accordance, on my part, of an additional period for the definite and categorical answer to the demands I have made, under instructions from her Britannic Majesty’s government.
The extended term now allotted will terminate on the 11th of May next, inclusive, when the same situation of affairs will prevail, as I have already had the honor to refer to, should the demands remain unsatisfied.
I have the honor to be, sir, your most obedient, humble servant,
EDWARD ST. JOHN NEALE, H. B. M.’s Chargé d’Affaires, &c., &c., &c., Japan.
General R. H. Pruyn, Minister Resident of the United States of America, Japan.
