Ng Ngan Choi - 10 years of age. Girl's parents are said to have gone to Singapore having previously given their daughter to people. The child lived for 4 years with them in Hong Kong. She is unable to recollect the house in which she lived, but would recognize the house if she saw it. This girl was taken to Bangkok by Lie, and she is desirous of returning to her.

D. Alwan states she is 19 years of age, but she looks about 16 or 17. The girl was born at Gong Li in the Sungtin district. Her parents are still living here. About 4 months ago her father told an old woman to take her to Canton to cure her of a disease which she had - yellowness of skin. After being there about 2 months the girl was compelled by her parents to come to Hong Kong with the old woman who sold her to Elsie for eighty dollars. After being here about 18 days, Elsie took her away.
