The Governor.

COPY.

18th April, 1899.

10 p.m.

Since I sent my last message Chinese attacked our troops who swept down the valley to a point 2 miles from Kam Tin. Casualties on our side nil; on side of Chinese not known. I was present throughout engagement, after which we proceeded to Kam Tin and blew down two gates of walled villages.

We returned to Sheung Tsun where we will remain to-night. To-morrow we proceed to Un Long and Ping Shan where we will stay for night. Simmonds has arrived from Fan Ling; reports all quiet there. We are well though tired.

(Signed) LOCKHART.
