duty on Blake Pier, I was standing in the verandah & typhoon was
very strong then. I saw one Chinaman blown away into the water on the
eastern side of the Blake Pier. I ran after him but the wind struck
me against the lamp post. I got hold of the post firmly & took off
my turban from my head & tied one part of it with the post & tried
to save the man from drowning by means of catching my turban. Upon
this a European gentleman came up & he caught hold of my turban &
jumped into the water. I caught hold the other side of the turban
& pulled them both ashore. When I got near the steps my turban got
broken & I was very near to go into the water, but luckily I saw a
hole in a step & put my hand in supporting myself, with the other
hand I caught hold the European gentleman by his tunic, he was then
holding the Chinaman. Thus the drowning man was saved.
