REASONS FOR ABANDONMENT 341
in extending the period of payment, in securing the right
to occupy the Chumbi Valley during that extended
period, and in obtaining the right for our Agent at Gyantse
to proceed to Lhasa, have been already given. I had to
act in circumstances that were very exceptional, and I
thought I was not taking more latitude than such cir-
cumstances naturally confer on an agent. The pledges
to Russia were given with a qualification, but the main
pledge, that we would not annex Tibet, or establish a
protectorate over it, or interfere in its internal adminis-
tration, had not, in my view, been infringed by the Treaty
I signed.
W e may assume that Government had some pressing
international consideration of the moment which necessi-
. tated their taking no account of the qualification to their
pledges, but there is some justification for thinking that if
the Treaty had not been modified, and the right to occupy
the Chumbi Valley and to send the Gyantse Agent to
Lhasa had been maintained, we might have prevented the
present trouble from ever arising.
