On P. 99 Of His Introduction, Colonel Yule Manifestly Identifies The Poh-Lo Of 1282 With Marco; But The Identity Of His Title With That Of Puh-Lo In 1277 Suggests That The Two Men Are One, In Which Case Neither Can Be Marco Polo.

On p. 422 of Vol.

I. Yule repeats this identification in his notes. I may mention that much of the information given in the present article was published in Vol. XXIV. of the China Review two or three years ago. I notice that M. Cordier quotes that volume in connection with other matters, but this particular point does not appear to have caught his eye.

"As matters now stand, there is a fairly strong presumption that Marco Polo is once named in the Annals; but there is no irrefragable evidence; and in any case it is only this once, and not as Pauthier has it."

Cf. also note by Prof. E.H. Parker, China Review, XXV. pp. 193-4, and, according to Prof. Pelliot (Bul. Ecole franc. Ext. Orient, July-Sept., 1904, p. 769), the biography of Han Lin-eul in the Ming shi, k. 122, p. 3.

Prof. Pelliot writes to me: "Il faut renoncer une bonne fois a retrouver Marco Polo dans le Po-lo mele a l'affaire d'Ahmed. Grace aux titulations successives, nous pouvons reconstituer la carriere administrative de ce Po-lo, au moins depuis 1271, c'est-a-dire depuis une date anterieure a l'arrivee de Marco Polo a la cour mongole.
