(426 were sound and he was locked in a room and about 8 men were guarding him outside the room. The Shau Sz of the neighbouring villages were allowed to go into the room and see him. I went in and he asked me to call Tang Chak Hing, who is master of the I-On shop in Tai Tsun. I sent a man named Chau Ying to find him, but I do not know whether he found him, or whether he came. I then returned to my house at Nan Pin Wai where I spent the night.

About 8 p.m. on the 11th ultimo, my brother came to me at Nan Pin Wai and told me Tang Tsing Sz had taken Tang Cheong from his house at Un Long. Nan Pin Wai is only a few minutes' walk from Un Long. I am certain this was on the 8th day of the Chinese month, not the 7th. That is all I know about the matter. My brother Ng Fung Cheong is now in Canton; I have sent for him and expect him back in two or three days. Tang Cheong did not tell me why he wanted to see Tang Chak Hing; I had no further conversation with him and after seeing him I went straight home to Nan Pin Wai.

I did not overhear Tang Cheong's guards say anything. Tang Tsing Sz was not at the Tai Ping Kuk when I was there; my brother told me he Tang Tsing Sz was there about 8 p.m.

Taken by me this 2nd day of May, 1899.
