CHAPTER XXXI.
FORSYTH'S FIRST AND SECOND MISSION.
I have referred to the erroneous opinion Sir Henry Rawlinson had of the
highlands to the north of Himalaya. He regarded as the great discovery of John-
son, the existence of an open road from Khotan round the Kwen-lun over the
Chang-tang, a road by which wheel carriages could pass from the Himalayas directly
into the plains of Central Asia. The verification of the existence of that road was
a desideratum in Asiatic exploration.
This view seemed first to be somewhat supported by Forsyth's statement
that the Kara-korum road was almost the only one which had so far been used for
trade. If the Chang-chenmo route could be used instead, all the difficult passes of
the Kara-korum would be avoided. Instead of marching six days without any kind
of grass for the animals, as over the Kara-korum, the tradesmen would find anything
they needed if they took the Chang-chenmo route.¹
In spite of Hayward's discoveries, Rawlinson still felt tempted to regard even
the western part of the highland as an even plateau. For he says that Shaw and
Hayward »had surmounted five different ranges in their journey across *the Hima-
layan plateau* between India and Turkestan.»²
But soon the cart-road had also to disappear, for in a letter to Murchison,
Forsyth says that the road to Charchan »skirts the foot of the Kuen Luen Range,
which by all accounts, and certainly so far as we could see from the heights of
Linzi Thung, extends far to the east, thus dispelling the notion that a cart-road
could ever be found from Khotan to Ghartokh.»³
In another letter: *On the Transit of Tea from North-West India to Eastern
Turkestan*, Forsyth touches upon the futility of attempting to open up a trade
