Hongkong, January 21st., 1914.
To the Assistant Superintendent. Sir,
I have the honour to report that, at about 2 a.m. on the morning of the 14th, instant I was startled from sleeping by a violent disturbance of shouting and wrestling in the room below. The Senior Officer of the room at once got up and proceeded to investigate the cause of the noise, returning at once, telling me to go and see what was the matter with Warder Stevens. This I did at once, and found "arder Stevens lying on his bed in în exiausted condition, and appearing, vory excited in his manner. I asked him what was the matter and he said that he did not know that s the matter with his head, but thou it he was going wad. I comunicat- -ed with the Medical Officer of Victoria Gaul by telephone at once, explaining to him the e ndition of the order, and stating that previous to my seeing him the other inmates of the roan had had a hard strugle to keep him out of the bath, the prevailing object in his mind being a determination to drown himself. I was directed by the Medical Officer to tell the "enior Officer on duty to convey Warder Stevens to the Covernment Civil Hospital where they would detail what was to be done with him. On returning to the quarters after telephoning to the Medical Officer I found Warder Stevens atru lin violently on the floor of his room and these frenzies were so violent that it took ri▾ of the staff to hold him. Eventually I was enabled to inject worphia L X into him by intermuscular injection. On arrival there however the Terd Laster on duty would not take the responsibility of admitting him into the hospital, and gave the an order for the Tantic Alum where we took him leaving him there at 3.50 e.m. On the journey Warder Stevens was very quiet not speking or strug ling at all: and on arrival at the Asylum did not take notice of any who were there.
I have etc., (Sd.) Albert Edvards,
hospital rder.
