: had only been distributing proclamations and that he should not be dealt with until the Chinese had gained a victory. Tang Cheung was seized on the 7th day (16th April) and was murdered on the evening of the 8th (17th April) after the Chinese had been defeated. So far as I have been able to ascertain only 4 persons were present when the murder was committed. They were Tang Tsung Sz, who ordered the murder, Tang Nin, who committed the deed, Tang Chu Shan who also joined with Tang Tsung Sz in ordering the murder. Tang I Shok was in the meeting house on the 7th (16th April) and he also ordered that the deed should be committed. He and Tang Tsung Sz were the prime instigators of the murder. The murderer Tang Nin is a man of no regular occupation; he earns his living by gambling and thieving. He sometimes acts as a ferryman. Tang Chung was taken to Ha Tsun and was murdered there. Ng Ki Cheung did not go to Ha Tsun.

The murder was committed at night.
