came on board they spoke but no one on board could understand them. After they had taken all the things out of my junk, the Government boat steamed away.
I returned immediately to Hongkong and made a report at the Police station on the morning of the 4th instant.
My junk after it was boarded drifted away passed the North end of Lamma into Chinese Waters. But when I was boarded I was close to Sandy Bay (points out this place on the Map of Hongkong) not very far from land. The Chinese Officers were on board my ship for about half hour. This was about 10 o'clock at night.
My petition is wrong in so far as it states that I was towed into Chinese waters.
The Boat-people at Sai-Ying-pun know that I was bound for "Little Hongkong" (Aberdeen) on the night in question. There was a man on board my junk sent by the Kin-Lung shop who was to attend to the shipment of Salt-fish at Little Hongkong (Aberdeen). His name was ... the son of Chan Hi-cai (Master of the Hin Lung shop).
