The article attributes the Morrison incident, in which a ship attempted to repatriate seven shipwrecked Japanese sailors and at the same time open trade with Japan, to Charles King's company. The company involved was actually Olyphant & Co., David Olyphant having formed his own company nine years before.

My source for this is Wikipedia's own David Olyphant article and The China Repository Volume VI, May 1837 to April 1837

Upon further research it appears King worked for Olyphant & Company even though David Olyphant had worked for King and Talbot in 1820. King may have been involved but the Morrison was definitely and Olyphant & Company ship. — Preceding unsigned comment added by CRODDY (talk • contribs) 16:19, 23 August 2017 (UTC)
