India and Tibet : vol.1 |
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the troops had been withdrawn, and the j ong was occupied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.
