ARRIVAL AT GYANTSE   181

by 9 a.m. On the morning of the 12th we found that

the troops had been withdrawn, and the j ong was occupied

without opposition.

So ended another phase of the enterprise, and on

April 14 the Viceroy telegraphed, offering to myself,

General Macdonald, and to all the officers and men of the

Mission escort, both civil and military, his warmest con-

gratulations upon the success of the first part of our

undertaking, and his grateful recognition of the cheerful-

ness, self-restraint, and endurance exhibited by all ranks

in circumstances unexampled in warfare, and calling for

no ordinary patience and fortitude.
