TIBETANS EXPELLED ACROSS BORDER 71
lacking, were not for the time in favour of such a proposal.
And another alternative of stopping all Tibetan trade they
thought would be hard on our own traders, and might
drive trade permanently away to Nepal and Bhutan. They
accordingly adopted the above-mentioned course.
Mr. White went to Giagong on June 26, 1902, with
200 men, and camped half a mile from the Tibetan wall,
where the Khamba Jongpen and 40 men were stationed.
He gave them twenty-four hours' notice in which to move
to the other side of the boundary. On the following
morning, after some protests, the 'Tibetans removed across
the boundary. On July 4 a number of Tibetan officials
visited him, and said they had come under instructions
from the 'Tashi Lama to show him the Giagong boundary.
Mr. White told them that his orders were to lay down

was the boundary. He found on the tract 6,270 sheep,
737 yaks, out of which only 1,143 sheep and 80 yaks
belonged to the Sikkimese, and the remainder were
Tibetan. Near the top of the Naku La he found a
Tibetan wall running across the valley, with a blockhouse
on the east.
The immediate consequence of this action was, that at
the end of July the Viceroy received a letter from the
Chinese Resident at Lhasa, asking for an explanation
of the object and reasons of Mr. White's proceedings, and
saying that he had appointed Mr. Ho Kuang-Hsi to
proceed to Giagong, and had further arranged with the
Dalai Lama for the despatch of a Tibetan official to act
conjointly with Mr. Ho in any discussion with Mr. White
which should arise.
The Viceroy, in reply, wrote to say that the object
