HARBOUR MASTER'S OFFICE, HONGKONG, 14th May, 1859. 1 is hereby notified to Masters and others in charge of Merchant Vessels, that, on or before the 1st June simo, all Ships in Port are required to move over to the North side of the Harbour, and there moor with Forty-
Fathoms of Chain to each Anchor, open Hawse to the North-East.
A Straight Line from the North-West Point of the Island of Hongkong, intersecting the Southernmost House Beach at Limeburners' Village, Cheem-sha-tsui, extending towards the second high ridge from the North of island of Lantao, such Line running nearly due East and West, will be the Lino, south of which no Merchant
hall lay during the Typhoon months, without special permission from the Harbour Master.
To facilitate the business of the Port during fine weatlier, Vessels actually loading or unloading may, on written Sation from Consignees and request of the Master, receive special permission to lay over on the Town side of Harbour, whilst so engaged, such vessels having their sails bent and all clear to stand over for the opposite on the first prognostic of foul weather. It is, however, clearly to be understood, that vessels pursuing this do so entirely at the responsibility of Master and Agents.
Merchant Ships, (with the exception of those calling for Orders, and whose stay in Port will not exceed from to three days,) will keep their Topgallant Masts and Yards on Deck, Flying Jibboom in, and particular tion must be paid to keep their Hawse clear,
As some Ships now in Harbour are moored in a most slovenly manner, so slack that it is impossible to keep Chains from twisting, the Harbour Master finds it necessary to state that, in mooring Vessels, Masters are fred to veer out Ninety Fathoms of Chain on their first anchor, and when taut in the required direction, then
their second anchor, veering out on that Chain, and heaving in Forty-five Fathoms of their first. Persons neglecting these precautionary measures will be subject to the full penalty provided in Section VIII Jalinance No. 11 of 1845.
