day. I did my best to appease him by explaining by letter
that we had only intended to do him a civility ; that it was
our custom to call in the afternoon ; and that at Peking I had
myself called upon his own official superior, the Russian
minister, in the afternoon, and been called on in return by him.
But M. Petrovsky replied that he was only concerned with
Kashgar, and that at Kashgar the custom was to call in the
middle of the day.
I regretted this misunderstanding with M. Petrovsky all the
more because I felt myself indebted to him for many civilities
during my stay in Kashgar. He had been most obliging in
forwarding our letters through his couriers to Russian Turkestan ;
he had lent us numbers of books to read ; and in many other
ways had done us kindnesses for which I should have wished to
show my gratitude. I had, however, the satisfaction of parting
on very friendly terms with M. Lutsch, the secretary, and
receiving from him a handsome present as a token of his
regard.
