Letter from Sir Henry Yule to Brian Houghton Hodgson in which he writes that Lieutenant Garnier of the French Navy is in China preparing to penetrate Tibet and has written to Yule to ask for questions of interest about the area. Yule is therefore asking Hodgson's advice. He writes how little is known from the Europeans who have been to Lhasa and mentions Thomas Manning and Vanderput, a Dutchman. The Asiatic Society have sent Yule some copies of Hodgson's letter on Buddhism and Yule sends some to Hodgson. Handwritten, 3 sides, dated 1 July 1873. Also accompanying envelope with Hodgson's annotations.
