2. That the Missionaries at Lahoul be requested to send at 

 Government's expense from Lahoul to Kangra the collections, 

 observations and instruments, etc., and to draw up a Report, spe- 

 cifying the claims to which Hari Chand, the son of the Negi of 

 Lahoul is entitled, for the journies he undertook last summer in 

 search of our brother. 



3. That a note may be issued to the Lieutenant Governor of 

 the Punjab and to the Commissioners of Kamaon, Simla and Kan- 

 gra, authorizing them to distribute freely circulars in the vernacu- 

 lar languages among the trading people of their districts, promis- 

 ing a reward for any papers, drawings, instruments or othor pro- 

 perty of Adolphe Schlagintweit delivered to them, the amount of 

 remuneration being dependent on the nature and quantity of the 

 property restored. It is beyond all doubt, that the traders would 

 carry on such circulars to Kashmir, Laclak and the countries of 

 Central Asia which Adolphe Schlagintweit has visited. 



4. That all the instruments, collections, and observations thus 

 recovered, be forwarded to us, if small parcels overland to Berlin, 

 if boxes to London, addressed " Schlagintweit, India House," for 

 being worked out and put up like our other collections.

 note have been officially dispatched :
