A rather unusual incident occurred here last Sunday. About noon a large money (about three feet high), belonging to one of our Foreign residents, broke loose from his chald. Caving paraded up the street leading from the Custom House, he proceeded to frighten the whole place. Taking complete possersion of some fruit stalls, he helped himself to anything that came to hard.
