Eye-witnesses state that the scene was one of great confusion as all the boats in the vicinity were attempting to get clear of the flames. Some succeeded but others were set on fire and a few are believed to have been burned to the water's edge.

The Kau On, it is said, had been running regularly between Wu- chow and Nanning and was due to leave Wuchow on Wednesday for the upper port. She was load- ed with a cargo of matches and cotton yarn but fortunately pas- sengers had not yet embarked, or else the toll of lives would certain- ly have been much heavier.
