The 9.8th I arrived at Liong sony Ulliine, communicating with the local Authorities and other sources, but could not get information of the pirates referred to in the Wingting Police report of 10th May 1867.

I proceeded to a creek near Sazina arriving off Ulline, the morning of the 26th, there were no junks there, but a fleet of 6 piratical junks had been there 10 days before and sailed for Cochin China. I got information of a piratical junk being in Julinstan Inner harbour and proceeded there with the "Janus" in company, where on the 26th we captured her, the pirates fleeing on seeing the Gunboats approaching to the shore.

The junk belonged to Wengthing and mounted 19 guns, and three of the crew, the captain, supercargo, and one other, had been detained as prisoners by the pirates. After due enquiry, we gave them up and they resumed their journey, and she sailed for Wengthing on the 30th Ultimo.

Having several defects in the machinery to make good, I remained in Kin Kan till the 30th, when the "Janus" and "Bonneer" sailed to the Northward, calling at Lian Pong on the Coast of Hainan, arriving there on the afternoon of the 3rd instant. I delivered the 15 prisoners over to the Mandarin of that City, and left again with the released Junk.
