We find that the S.S.

Mr. PATRICK SCULLY (Certificate of Competency as River Master only, of Hong Kong, No. 4389) being the Chief Officer of the said ship did fail to be on board at that time and that he did arrive on board at 2:25 p.m. under the influence of alcohol and not in a fit state to perform his duties.
