Report of a Visit to the Pakchan River, and of some Tin Localities in the Southern Portion of the Tenasserim Provinces

After a correspondence with the Court of Bangkok, it had been arranged that an agent on their part should meet Mr. Commis* sioner Blundell on the Pakchan river on March 1, where evidence was to be heard on both sides, and the question finally settled. The departure of the commissioner from Maulmain was unavoidably delayed till March 4. At Mr. Blundell’s request, I formed one of his party in the H.C. steamer Hoogly, and touching at Amherst and Mergui, entered the Pakchan river on March 10.
