Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from History of the Indian Navy, Vol. 2 of 2 In consequence of serious differences having arisen with the Chinese authorities at Canton, involving not only the forcible occupation of the British factory, and the demolition of a wall and quay, but the endangering of the lives of British merchants, Lord William Bentinck despatched Captain Fremantle, commanding H.M.S. ´Challenger,´ accompanied by the Hon. Company´s ship ´Clive,´ Captain Harris, with a letter addressed to the Viceroy of Canton. The two ships arrived off Macao on the 4th of December, 1831, and, on the 8th, the Select Committee of merchants at Canton, with whom Captain Fremantle communicated, sent a deputation to the Chinese Governor, to inquire when it would be convenient for him to grant an audience to Captain Fremantle for the purpose of receiving the Governor-General´s letter of August 27, demanding reparation and protection for British interests.
