particulars. Mr Paul Schiers is the resident head of the business, signs himself as Attorney for Mr Abella. There can, I submit, no reasonable doubt that the "Fat Chey" is fitted out in a manner that she is unfit, and under a contract not for one way ages.

The actual fittings or barricades were made by Chinese Artisans. I have called upon the Harbor Master to state what took place in this juncture when the "Fat Chey" was fitting out, and I enclose a copy of that Officer's report.

The statement of Mr. Thomsett is, in this subject, supported by the Agents of the steamer in a letter to the "China Mail", 10 April 1875.
