Letter
William H. Seward to Prince Kung, February 22, 1878
[Inclosure 2 in No. 411.]
Mr. Seward to Prince Kung.
Peking, February 22, 1878.
I have had the honor to receive your imperial highness’s letter, of January 31, transmitting to me a code of proposed “Rules for the conservation of the harbor at Shanghai.” These rules have my perfect approval, and I will instruct the consul-general to afford the harbor-master cordial support in giving effect to them.
I have, &c.,
GEORGE F. SEWARD.
