1863 (18 July) a neat outer cover sent from France to Shanghai Chine. On the obverse side, endorsed by “Par Paquetor Francais”, franked with two pairs of 40c French adhesive tied by “2145” diamond lozenges, a red boxed “PD” and a black boxed “PD”. According to Lee Scamp Far East Mail Ship Itineraries, this mail should be carried by French Ligne Ship “PELUSE”, “ALPHEE”, “HYDASPE” to Shanghai. Lee Scamp mentioned on its note 18 (page 4) that MI “HYDASPE” had gone to Whampoa for repairs when arrived in China. The mail might be carried by another substitute French mail service to Shanghai or other British service as an outside mail. That explained why there is no arrival c.d.s. at Shanghai. A first year French ligne packet mail to Shanghai. Very interesting in use of substitute mail service in China. 1863.7.18 法國寄上海，正面批注經法國郵船，貼40生丁雙連，銷2145殺手戳。按Scamp記錄，此信由Peluse, Alphee, Hydaspe號寄上海。而Hydaspe號於抵達黃埔後進行維修，由於另一艘英國或法國船送至上海。為法國郵船寄上海之首年例子。
