The party carried a ...

Luc-n. Sin was one, the other was his nickname "Iran".

I asked why, I did not say before. Janid "you did not say before you wanted me to attack a European house." He then forced me to go. This was about midnight. If Ki Fong told Lee-a On to go to the European's house and break into it. All the Cama men were armed when they went to the Cap. I was not armed.

The European opened the door. We were all waiting outside. I was on the road. We had not lighted the torches. The men went in and then there was a fight. I heard three or four reports of firearms. I don't know whether it was a gun or a pistol. Luc Lung King gave him one.

I went back to my home. A carpenter has Dr. Lee-a-Ming at the other part of the house. He saw me at day-light when I returned.

I got $120 property. I have not seen any of the men since, except Sin Sing, who is in custody. I first saw him in custody after the attack. I don't know where the men live.
