Your Excellency.

I submit herewith a copy of a Statement made before me by Tang Kok Lam at Sheung Tsun in the Pat Heung sub-district, about two hours before the Chinese attacked our troops there. This Statement ought to have been submitted before, but was overlooked owing to my attention having been occupied with so many other matters. Tang Kok Lam made another Statement on the 22nd April, a copy of which was duly submitted to me on the 24th April along with Ng Ki Cheung's Statement and the translation of the documents found in the Meeting House at Un Long.

The Statement now submitted is valuable as it contains the names of the leaders of the anti-British movement, which Tang Kok Lam has placed alongside his own name.
