clared his inability to seriously discuss such a suggestion and
has communicated to the Chinese Resident a hope that
nothing will prevent the work being carried out amicably
next year.

from Tibet by the boundary line laid down in the Convention.
The tract in question is of no value to Sikkim. Would you
