Telegram van Colonel Pole Carew, Military Secre
tary,Commander in chiefaan Lieutenant Breijer.
(Verzonden van Mandalay en ontvangen te Rangoon).
In the name of Sir Frederick Roberts I welcome you to Burma.
His Excellency regrets extremely that owing to his early return to
India he will not himself have the pleasure of receiving you but he
feels that he cannot leave you in better hands than those of General
Lockhart an officer who was himself kindly received by the army
in Batavia.
Sir Frederick trusts you will not regret your visit to Burma.
