the spine and legs and because of the heavy iron chains with which he was laden. H. WILSON, _Hospital Assistant, Methodist Episcopal Mission._ GUNGI BYAS BHOT, DARMA. N.B.--The numerous smaller wounds, burns, &c., on the face and body are not taken into account. A copy of this report was despatched from Dr. Wilson direct to the Deputy Commissioner, and was forwarded to the Government of India. DR. H. WILSON'S _Certificate of_ CHANDEN SING'S _injuries_. TAKLAKOT, _Sept._ 8, 1897. I herewith certify that I have examined Chanden Sing, Mr. A. Henry Savage Landor's servant who accompanied him to Tibet, where they were arrested and tortured. Chanden Sing has visible to this day on both his legs, and twenty-one days after they were inflicted, innumerable black marks produced by flogging. So severely appears the punishment to have been administered, that large patches of skin and flesh have been torn off by the lashing. Chanden Sing is now in very poor health, and it is evident by his appearance that he suffers greatly from the tortures and ill-treatment received at the hands of the Tibetans. H. WILSON, _Hospital Assistant, Methodist Episcopal Mission._ GUNGI BYAS BHOT, DARMA. A copy of this was sent by Dr. Wilson to the Deputy Commissioner at Almora, and was forwarded to the Government of India. _Certificate by_ MISS M. A. SHELDON, M.D., _of the Methodist Episcopal Mission._ M.E. MISSION, KHELA P.O. DIST. ALMORA. EAST KUMAON, BHOT. "All at it and always at it."--WESLEY. _Sept._ 28, 1897. This is to certify that I have seen the wounds inflicted upon Mr. Landor by the Tibetans. It is now about forty days since he was bound and tortured. The wounds are healing well. The scars upon his hands caused by being bound with chains behind his back are plainly visible. The feet show even more clearly the results of inhuman binding and torture. The wounds have not yet entirely healed, and there is much discoloration. One foot is still swollen. I have not seen the wounds upon his spine inflicted by a torturing saddle, but he complains of much pain and soreness in that region.
