A late Qing dynasty official document from Jiangxi provincial authorities,
addressing matters related to a dispute involving foreign missionaries and foreign diplomatic intervention. The text references communications with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and mentions French consular involvement and the dispatch of naval vessels. It urges local merchants and residents to remain calm, not to believe in rumors, and to maintain social order. Well-preserved with neat calligraphy, this document provides valuable historical insight into Sino-foreign relations and local governance during the late Qing period.
