The scene OF the rebellion.
From the time the Do Sing left Car

miles up the river, Captain Tholemsn
had trouble with his crew, the Chinese
sympathizing with the rebels. Ono =
comprador, began melting them to NM
tiny, and the captain alleges that in
self-defense he was compelled to shoe,
the man. The comprador died from
his wound the next day.
Captain Tholeman was placed Undo,
