(1) The "Lung Man" have been quiescent of late, but
yesterday they again asserted themselves. About 18.30 hours,
6 armed "Lung Man" in charge of an English speaking individual
黃振
(not Wong Chun Wa, it would seem), came up from the foreshore
to the junction of the main road and boundary path, along
which latter they essayed to proceed. They were held up,
however, by the military picket, whereupon the English speaking
person demanded to know on whose authority they were prevented
from using the path to which they claimed the same right as
the soldiers. However, the "Lung Man" did not attempt to force the issue, but went away, the leader saying: "We will
come and patrol the path to-morrow".

(1) On the 1st inst, a letter from Pang Ching in, Head
90. of the Branch Customs Cffice at Tai Pang, was delivered to
叠福
A compradore of the s/1 "Tai Pang", by a soldier at Tip Fuk. A copy and translation of this letter (A) is attached.
On the 3rd inst. a second letter was similary de-
livered to the compradore.
ter (B) is also attached.
A copy and translation of this let-
Both letters speak for themselves, and you already
know the main facts concerning them and what action has
been taken. But it is probable that no further demands will be made, as the compradore has seen Pang Ching Hin (the
latter travelled by the "Tai Pang" en route for Hong Kong
on the 6th inst.), and explained to him the position which
he said he misunderstood. I should have liked to have seen
#z Pang, but the fact that he was a passenger by the "Tai Pang" was not conveyed to the police until too late.
