scarcely a reason why we should not take measures to
counteract an influence which was already, and in hard

impunity ignore their treaty obligations. The Russian
Government had no intention of sending an agent to
Lhasa. Nevertheless, there was in Lhasa all the time a
Russian subject who had more influence over the Dalai
Lama than the Chinese Resident. When such was the
condition of affairs, we could hardly defer to Russia in a
matter concerning a country adjoining our frontier, but
nowhere adjoining hers.
Just as the move to Khamba Jong a dozen miles
inside the Tibetan frontier was most amply justified, so
also was the move to Gyantse, halfway to the capital.
