(4). From the evidence of all the Witnesses examined, the night appears to have been exceedingly dark and the Court is of opinion that the Master should have used every means of ascertaining his position accurately, which he had means of doing, and which he neglected to do.
(5). The Court therefore adjudges that the Certificate of Competency, No. 17,854, of the Master, SAMUEL ASHTON, be suspended for a period of three months from this date.
(6). The Court desires to express its opinion that good discipline was maintained after the wreck, and credit is due to the Master, Officers and Crew for preventing any greater loss of life than one boy, there being 153 persons on board at the time of the accident.
It is desirable to mention the praiseworthy conduct of the Crews of two Fishing boats who rendered assistance in saving life, and also to mention the kindness and ready aid afforded by the Master, Officers and Crew of the British Steamer Gaelic.
Given under our hands at Hongkong, this the twenty-sixth day of March, one thousand eight hundred and seventy-nine.
Confirmed.
