Kang Hati, Kang To, and Lán Ma Hang, that these places are separated from the Kau Lung district by two arms of the sea
and many ranges of hills, that the annexation also includes
the waters of Deep Bay and Mira Bay and the territory
between them covering an area of several hundred Li, that
the dimensions of this annexation differ widely from those
of the Kau Lung district, that the leaving of the Khu Ling
district might be allowed as an exceptional case but that
the occupation of the territory outside the Kau Fang
with its large population and numerous villages cannot be
quietly accepted that if the foreigners are allowed to do
just as they like not only will we all become foreigners
which will be a great disgrace to us all but it is to be
feared that excessive taxation and an oppressive government
will bring on us evils without end, that proof of such
excessive taxation and oppression is easily ascertainable from
Hongkong, that there we have is levied every quarter a tax
of $1.10, that there it is the custom to make vessels
clearing pay dues according to their size, that if a vessel
anchors temporarily it has to obtain papers for which a tax
has to be paid, that fines are inflicted for the breach of
any law or regulations, that some years ago a poll tax was
levied on the Chinese repeatedly and that it was only tempor-
arily stopped because the poor combined and refused to make
payment, that worst of all when the plague epidemic broke
out some years ago the Sanitary Board made strict search for
sick people and that when they found any Chinaman who was
thin and delicate they falsely declared that he was sick and
forcibly removed him to the Board when they cruelly dosed him
