Pia Raynesford (D.) v. Pte. J. Whito (C.). There was little that was scientific or clover in this fight. Raynesford was the more aggressive but his blows were woak.

After a tame third round Baynesford won.

According to the information received, the missionaries were well treated, the brigands going so far out of their way as to send their cook back to bring the for eign cooking utensils. This was a great relief to the captives and everything would have gone extremely well had there not been a shortage of food.
