He was sent to prison for two years with hard labour.

man.
Ch'an A-yau, of San-úi, a coolie, aged 33 years, and Liu A-sau, of Wai-chau, aged 30 years, were convicted of stealing things from a junk in Sháu-ki-wan harbour. Chan A-yau had been in prison three times before and so was sentenced to seven years' penal servitude. Lui A-sau, who had not been in prison before, was sentenced to three years only.
Mak-kwong, coolie, and Cheng A-ki were
found guilty of snatching things from people in the street. Cheng A-ki had been in prison three times before for stealing things, he was now sent
to prison for seven years. Mák-kwong only got three years, not having been in prison before.
