Captain's Cabin, by firemen arre of the The Cabin door was then burst open. Preparations were made to make a start and the vessel set for Hongkong where she arrived early the following morning.

The amount of property waded away by the pirates is estimated at over $20,000.

Such are the particulars of an event which unusually caused much sorrow and consternation in this Colony.

As soon as the report of what had occurred reached me, I at once took every step in my power to have the culprits traced and possibly arrested. It was immediately despatched to the British Consul at Canton, who was requested to bring the matter to the Viceroy's notice, while another was sent to the Consul at Macao where it was done.
