You will remember that in my lust letter stated that the "Honam" would not be molested if she came up here as you nd- viser. The Strike Executive issued circulars to the effort that on each side of the ship were forty British Lumers who svould bombard anybody that threatened them. Accordingly pickets were warned to give the vessel a wide berth, to refrain from eper agita- tion and/or intimidation if she came alongside the wharf for fear of being tired at, but to warn all friends against the danger of travelling to Hongkong by her.

When the "Honam" first came up there was little or no trouble but the captain was arrested at the wharf for being in possession of a loaded revolver without a permit and he was confined in a saltfish shop.

Note: The writer obviously mistook Mesars. Oliver and Cox for the "Honam's" captain!]
