The boat contained eight men, four of whom boarded his boat They were armed with revolvers and swords, They broke open the chests and took the opium away. After they left they went in the direction of Hungham. He had since seen the opium and recognised it by the chap." He had not since seen, the pirates.

The latter was taken from his person. The men were on heard his boat about ten -minutes. He started with the opium from a
landing near the Harbour Master's Pler.
To his Worship: He was the only passenger on board. The crew consisted of two women and ons man, all of whom pulled the boat while he (witness) steered. He ateered for Shaskiwan via Hangham. The exact place where, the pirates boarded him was fair distance off the Hungham Dock. The robbers' boat was one of the fishing boat class, His boat was rowed, as also was that of the robbers. The robbers' boat came from the Tungkwa diregion. He was about half a mile
off shore. He did not know which side they boarded him from. The robbers opened all the chests and took the opium out. The oplum was In three-catly parcels. They threw the empty chests overboard. The attack was made between six and seven p.m. It was then dusk and the lamps were alight on board bin boat. As the robbers tork hold of him he was frightened and did not notice whether they had lightson board.or Bot. As it was evening, dusk, he could not ssy, for. certain that the first three prisoners were amongst the robbers, His reason for saying, previously, that they were the men who pirated his boat was because they were arrested with the opinion in their possession. The opium came from the Ming Yuea shop and others, Knowing the sampan- man, he took the boat that was attacked. He bad used the same simpan before. He was in the habit of steering the boat himself, when as Fouls to Shukiwan. He was attacked about an hour after starling. He went on to Hungham after the attack and from there to Chim-uă-trei He did not know whether the pirates were pre- viously informed that he had the oplum oz board.
His Worship remarked, at this juncture, that the witness was giving his answers in a very unsatisfactory manner.
Continuing, he was not hurt at all.
Mr. Dennys explained that he had refrained from putting several questions to the witness as he was giving his evidence in a most unsatisfac- tory manner, Witness identified the pirates' bosis the day after the affair. It was not a licensed boat,
At this point the case was adjourned for week, his Worship remarking that he would grant & further remand if necessary.
