Separations made July 28th 1876 G Babazar Ed. Stafford, Chief mate of the British barque "Frederick"? Abard between 10-11 PM. I saw the shadow of these men going into the cabin and I followed them to the entrance of the Captain's door, I met the Lascar, and asked him what he wanted there. The Lascar struck me with his fist on the left eye and also in the right temple with a belaying pin. I then heard the Captain screaming "what does this mean? Why do you strike me?"
