at 7. P. M. getting underweigh next morning and anchoring off Sai-le-cheong about day light when I found the junk inside a small basin off the village, the bar of which was dry at low water.

The shop owner was away in the Country, said to be sick, and I could find no more information about her, as half belonged to him, and the other half to the Captain. I accordingly brought the junk out (having to wait till high water 5.50 P.M.) telling the head man of the village, that she would be put into the hands of the Police at Hong Kong, and if the shop owner had any right to her, to come down to Hong Kong, and send in a petition, which if proved favorable, he would most likely get her again.

I got underweigh at 4.15 a.m. morning, returning to Hong Kong at noon.

I have,

(Signed.) U. C. Singleton, Lieutenant and Commander.
