I
THE PROSECUTION OF THE
́OPIUM FARMER.
[371
BEG to express through your columns my deep regret that I should in a hasty moment, in consequence of my not being able to read or understand Chiness: accounts, have commenced, a prosecution against Mr. KOH CHENG SEAN, the chief manager of the late Oplum Farm, with reference to the fands of
the CHEANG TEK KONG SEE. A complete Investigation into the matter and a careful examination of the books and secounts have thoroughly convinced me that my, suspicions were wholly groundless, and that there has been nothing whatever in ML KOH CHENG SEAN'S management of the business of the
ment of OPIUM FARM that is, in any way repre- hensible; and further, that he has all along been doing his best, honestly and faithfully, for the benefit of the CHEANG TEK KONG SEE.
