Chinese Christians [on the other hand], if, in law-suits affecting marriages, land questions, or the like, they attempt to take advantage of their status [as Christians], and try to get the missionaries to plead for them, should be severely punished by the local authorities.
[Original N^olc.'] — In China there are adherents to the doctrine of Confucius, also to that of Buddha, and to that of Tao [but all alike obedient to the law of the land]. The Lamas, for instance, although not Chinese, in a...ll cases conform obedi- ently to the laws of China. Tlie local authorities dispose of all questions and cases [in which they are parties].
It is understood that [abroad] foreign mission- aries when residing in other countries than their own, are in every case amenable to the laws and customs of that country. They are not permitted to assume a status of independence, and to violate the laws of the country and commands of the constituted authorities ; to arrogate to themselves the authority [of officials], or to overstep the limits of their own powers ; to cause scandal to reputations, and tyrannize over and ill-treat the people, thereby exciting popular suspicions, and calling forth general hatred and indignation.
