My Sui-Shang and Isoi Yen Shan were at my office at the time. I had sent for the former because I thought he might be able to give some assistance in the matter. I then took him aside and told him that Yeung implicated him, and I tried to induce him to give a clue to the persons who had a hand in the murder. A reward of $500 had been offered for information that would lead to the arrest of the murderer.
On the 5th of February, a man named Jany, who had been sent to Bangkok to bring back Kong Kung-Li, arrived with the latter. Neither he nor anyone else except H. E. the Governor and Du Fockhart had been informed of the fact that Yeung had actually committed the crime. He denied all knowledge of it.
I had to let him go. I then took him out to help find King Man-thing and Kong Intrai (a brother of Yeung Kim-thing) who I knew were associated with Yeung. They could not be found, and I detained Kong Kung-Li by that night, but as I could get nothing against him, I liberated him next day.
Yeung Kim Wan had stated in his dying declaration to Hanson that Chan Sin Pak's statement was principally taken on the 5th of February. It was through him that I succeeded in getting Kong Kung-Li and Wong Ping, and finally Kong Seng-Ying.
Kong Kung-Li's statement was taken on the 7th, and Wong Ping's on the 8th of February. The latter did not deny that Kong Kung-Li had made a statement in Hong Kong. Endeavours were then made to trace Wong Ping and Kong Kung-Li. They were both absent from the Colony: the former was farming in Macao and the latter in Bangkok.
A reward, in almost the same terms as the notice attached, of $500 had been offered a little time before Kong Kung-Li's return, but I did not take a statement from Wong Ping for fear that it might not lead to Hery Kory...
