SUPREME COURT,

HONGKONG, 11th March, 1879.

The following cases were also, in addition to

those published in the last Gazette, tried at the

Criminal Sessions for the month of February.

1. Ch'an Sz was charged with stealing at night a box on board a junk at Yáu-na Ti, which had been drawn up on the shore. He was found' guilty. As he had been twice previously con- victed, he was sentenced to 3 years' penal servi- tude, and as at the time he committed the offence he was armed with a large knife, a very dan- gerous weapon, he was also sentenced to be whipped 25 strokes with a rattan.

2. Ch'an Shing and Lam Kai were convicted of stealing a quantity of clothing during the night, in a dwelling house. Ch'an Shing was sentenced to one year's imprisonment with hard labour. Lam Koi, who had been convicted twice before, was sentenced to 4 years' penal servitude. 3. Tang Hing and Tang Lung were charged with stealing clothing from a dwelling house, and also with receiving it knowing it to be stolen. Tang Hing was found guilty of stealing it and Tang Lung of receiving part of the stolen pro- perty. Tang Lung received a very good charac- ter from his master, and as it was his first offence was punished with only 3 months' imprisonment with hard labour. Tang Hing, who had been convicted six times of many bad offences before, and was also convicted at these Sessions of receiv- ing a watch knowing it to have been stolen, was sentenced to 12 years' penal servitude as an example to other men.
