Tang Kan-pi states:-

801

The body of my father was found the day before yesterday. It had fallen out of the pig-basket but was tied to a pig-basket by a rope. I saw it myself.

Tang Shui, my cousin found it, the corpse had gun-shot wounds on the back and two just below his right ribs.

The body was also covered with weals, the result of the beating, and the chain was still attached to the neck. The body was found near Mang Chan.

Tang Shai states:-

I found the body of Tang Cheung the day before yesterday, the 19th or the 13th of the Chinese Moon (22nd April), I found it at Wang Chan in the creek. There was a pig-basket attached to the body, and the chain round the neck, fastened quite tight, and looked as if with a lock. There were three gun-shot wounds on the body and marks of the body having been beaten. The body was buried yesterday at Shan Pin Ting. The deceased was a clansman of mine. I recognised the body as that of Tang Cheung.
