of incredu

At the Criminal Ses- sions this morning, before Mr. E. H. Williams, Pun Chi-kwong and Pun Fook pleaded not guilty to a charge of robbery of two buffaloes.

Mr. J. Reynolds conducted the case for the prosecution and the jury was composed of Messrs. B. Jernakoff (foreman), F. A. Joanil- ho, Eu Yang Hoa-wan, P. S. R. Carnac, G. d'Aquino, Luke Eng- bun, Cheang Wye-san.

Mr. Reynolds said the robbery took place in a village off Wong San-wu, composed of a cluster of huts and bordering the Shum Chun river.

About: about 8 am. on October 11, seven children drove a herd of 20, cattle from the village to graze near the river, on a hillock known as Tam Kon-chau.

At about noon, the children saw two men corne over the hillock and when they were near, one pointed a revolver at them and ordered them to keep qulet..

The children ran towards, the village, the while. observing that two buffaloes were being driven towards the river. They raised the alarm and villagers came on the scene armed with shot guns.

They saw the two men driving the catlle and two other, men punting a boat down river..

Buffaloes Turned Back By Police

At that moment, the Lok Má- chau police boat, under Sergeant C. Smith, happened to come down the river, and Sergeant Smith saw the two men and the two buffaloes, swimming across the river. The two men escaped into Chinese ferritory but the buffaloes were turned back by the Police.

In the meantime, the villagers were pursuing the two men in the boat but they managed to escape. A search party was organised and Sergeant Smith found first ac- cused, about 50 yards' inland, covered with mud, hiding in some vegetation. Second accused arrested later hiding in tall grass,

When charged, the two dented taking part in the robbery: and said, that they were asked by "some persons", to row the boat.

The case is proceeding,
