A shield divided into quarters—the first and fourth quarter each feature, upon an azure field, are two or fess. Over this is a bend counter-compony. The second and third quarters, also upon an azure field, are each divided by an or chevron, with an anchor upon it. Surrounding the chevron are three or lozenges; two above, one below. At the helm, to the left, atop a torse is a muzzled bear passant; to the right, atop a torse, is a demi horse with a fleur-de-lis upon it. Below the shield, upon a ribbon, is the motto Verum Atque Decens.
The letter concerns the U.S. Government mission to China and Peter Parker. Harriet Parker transcribed a copy of a letter from P. S. Forbes, U.S. Consul to John W. Davis.
