given themselves to the Agents of Engrator (in the present cases to Perin and Surinam)

The notorious Mr. Daniel Richard Caldwell who watched the two cases is the owner and manager of both these houses and conducts, exclusively, the general Coolie-trade to Foreign ports. He also acknowledged

indeed that at least to some extent it is by connivance of the Mobirsements.

It was also admitted by him that the house had recently received a considerable stimulus particularly from Perin, an admission which must be taken in connection with the recent and questionable concession by Governor Sir R. G. Macdonell of the permission to ship and export 8029 Coolies for Perim from thence instead of from the Roads of Macao, to which Portuguese jurisdiction the Peruvian look had until its recent prohibition there exclusively confined.

The general question of the legitimacy or illegitimacy of the Chinese Coolie trade had not been before the Association nor do they intend now to lay it before Your Lordship. They merely wish to enforce the obvious truth that whether legitimate or illegitimate it is a trade with which upon every consideration not only the highest of those of humanity and religion but also those more directly related to Eastern policy and reputation, it behoves Her Majesty's Government to interfere with effect whenever it becomes necessary to prevent it from being made a pretext for cruelties and horrors such as those recorded in the evidence now submitted to Your Lordship.

The principal facts disclosed by the body of testimony brought before the Inquest in the E-boge Case are as follows:

No Report whatever on the sanitary condition of these Emigration Depots or on the deaths of their inmates has been made by their Superintendents or other officials for many years past. But for the accidental visit of "Inspector of Brothels" at the moment of the decease and the further accident of there being a group of eight or nine bodies laid out in part of the place when another Witness, the acting Registrar General of the Colony, was alive, he did so, and finding by a Jelask...
