On 30th ult., about 4 p.m. I was told by the interpreter to the Kowloon District Office to take the following message to Tok Chow: that the deceased's family could take the body of Ng Afung and bury it. I went to Tok Chow and told Ng Afung's mother and wife. I was promised a hundred cash by the interpreter to take the message.

Le Akin declared:

Ng Afung is my daughter-in-law's husband; my daughter-in-law, Ng Lan N-fung is a widow. I remember on the 30th ult., nothing going will Law Afung, of the neighbour, three undertakers and some others came to the beach at Kowloon City. There I saw the head of Ng Afung hanging from the bamboos on a wooden stand. Near the bamboos his body was buried. The undertakers and I got the body out of the ground. I identified it as that of my son Ng Afung. I knew the hand and foot. The hands were tied behind the body, a piece of hemp was round the thighs.
