IMPERIAL DECREES

(1) Sun Chia-nai, Assistant Grand Secretary. ete., reports that a book exiled the Shu-Kang-yi, written by the lave Fang Kuei fen, a former Junior Director of the Supervisorate of Instruction, is a very able work and well worth reading by scholars and students and that the engraved blocks for the book are now in the Kuang-jen-tang Book-store in Tientsin. Let Jung Lu see to it that 1,000 copies of this work be printed at once and sent with all haste to Peking to the Grand Council Secretariat for distribution, Let there be no unnecessary delay.

(2) The other day the Censor Pan Kuei used the name of some person in his memorial which we failed to recognise and we ordered him to explain himself. The stid Censor now states that the error was a clerical one caused by the slip of his pen. This was most careless of him and he is therefore handed aver to the Boaril concernd for the determination of an adequate penalty.
