I have been hundreds of times at Hongkong, where, as matter of fact, I live. I always navigate my own ship myself, but I always take a pilot if I can get. one to tell me what anchorages are free not to navigate my ship. The Wongkut's registo ed tonnage is:.115; gross, 1,777. I was coming up from Bangkck, and enter. d the harbour on the evening of the 3rd August. I passed the Uptain good distance outside Hongkong near Laums Island. she was going ahend, but I think had slowed down to pick up pilot. I

I am not sure about the time; the second officer noted the entries. When just abeant of a small island inside of Grosu Island I met some junks, sailing, and had to alter my course northward to clear various junks, going to the northwards on several occasions. My course was N.55 E., keading for my anchorage; I did not change my course any more. At Green Island I rang up to stand by in the engine room. About a minute later I put hor when I'stoppel my engines altogether. After on slow, and wont thus for about five minutes

coming to my anchorage, I gave the order Halt speed astern "with my ongines to take the speed out of my ship. When I gave the order, however, the ship was hardly moving. Diy engine went asteru "just a touch, half or a quarter of a minute. then stopped the enginer. A little later I ordered Full actern." and this order was carried out. This was to tighten up my anchor when let go. I thon whistled three times and let go my | anchor. The engines contioned working

little after letting go the anchor, to straighten the chain and make the an- chor hold. The port anchor was the one dropped. I stopped the engines about half a minute later, when the chief officer, forward, informed me that the chain was tight, and the aneuor holding.

I dropped anchor my ship had begun to swing. When he finally pulled ILD, after the rollision, sh was houding towards Hongkong. I lookat at the Ujina, using glasses all the time., Fcould make hes ont plainly she was a quartor to half a mile away when the anchor was dropped. By the appearance of the Uging lights I should say she was heading to go hatwear the Beurȧilde and the lant. The Branhildu was lying between me and the land, about 300 yards away. I should say the Ujina's course was nearly parallel to our course. I looked carefully at her before dropping the anchor I never thought there was any danger of a collision with lor: if she find kept on the course she was on then she would have passed about half-a-mile from me, or at any rateimply clear.
