Un, the minister of the Mercantile & Marine of Kingdom of Annam respectfully makes this communication to His Lordship the Chief Justice of the British Colony of Hong Kong and prays His Lordship to favor it with his perusal.
I received letters from Ao Man, Commander of the Steamer "Dang Wor", reporting that the repairs of the steamer have nearly completed, but that she was arrested and her workmen stopped on account of a suit which was brought by the head partner of Messrs. Landabin & Co. against the said steamer before your Lordship's Court for a heavy debt contracted by the steamer.
Un took a messenger of the 9th Rank, with the said head partner who demanded repayment of the debt.
