They sent down to the captain of the Topaze, propos- ing to him to make a communication to the vice- roy to the following effect, viz. That the affair which had caused the difficulty was a very serious one, and demanded investigation, but that he could not decide what ought to be done, but that, on his return to his own country, he would report it to his sovereign, that the persons accused might DIFFICULTIES. 121 be brought to trial, according to the laws of the land. The captain acceded to thi...s proposal, and drew up such a communication, and sent it up to the committee ; but then arose the difficulty that the viceroy could not receive it, unless, in some way or other, it should come from the com- mittee. They were unwilling to make any com- munication from the captain of a king's ship their own, on account of the steadiness with which they had insisted that they had no official con- nection with such a ship, or control over it ; and unless they should make it theirs, their friends, the Hong merchants, knew very well it could not be received.
