before the Head of the Bureau, an elderly man whose name
I do not know. He questioned me and asked if I was a Tater Policeman in the service of the Hongkong Government. I told him that I was not a policeman, but a seaman on a pelice launch. He asked why I came to Sham Chun, and I told him that I came to buy food. Nothing more was said, and I was ordered to be further detained. About 8 or 10 days later I was again taken before the same man who repeated his former questions and to which I gave the same answers. He then said he would release me, but warned me
not to go te Hongkong, but to stay at the Union Headquarters, Canton. He said I would be shot if I attempted to leave Canton. I was then released and went straight to the Union Headquarters. I was given no food there, but purchased
my own. I had about a 81 odd in my possession. I never left the Union except to buy food and did not meet with anyone I knew until the third day there, when I met a man named Chiu Kan, formerly a cook and residing at Sham Shui Po. I told Chiu Kan that I had no money, so he invited me to stay with him at his family residence. I stayed with Chiu Kan for 2 days, during which time I told him that I was anxious to get back to Hongkong. He said that I would be unable to cross the frontier, but I said I had friends in Sham Chun who would help me to get across. On the 31.7.25., Chiu Kan procured for me a railway ticket which enabled me to reach Shan Chun the same day. On arriving at Sham Chun, no one accosted me and I went to the Sui Cheung Shop, where I remained overnight. The following morning, 1.8.25., at daybreak, a man named Cheung,
a native of Shan Chun, took me to near Muk Tu, where I waded the Sham Chun River, and got into British Territory. I then proceeded direct to Lok Ma Chau.
During my stay at the Union headquarters, in
Canton.
