149 days from Swatow to Havana, - I received $208, - The ship had 276 coolies on board at Swatow, and landed 1440 at Havana, - The rest of them died, - they died of a kind of sudden death - some died from starvation of opium, but not many. - Some died of disease, there was not enough water, and it was considered that there were diseased persons burning with heat inside, - most of the coolies had something the matter with them when they were at Swatow. - They were inspected on board and were yellow, like jaundice. Captain asked me to let him try his mode of cure for a few days, - He did so, but the coolies went on dying just the same.
I examined the matter by acting as Attorney General.
I left the Ship at Charleston more than two weeks after I arrived there. - The Coolies were examined by a European Doctor at Swatow, - The Doctor pointed out that the Coolies were not well, and he spoke to the Doctor about it, but the Doctor only scolded him. -
