CHARGE OF FRAUD
Honolulu, T. H.,
November 10, 1909

Honolulu. H.,
November 10, 1909
To the Editor of The Star:
Dear Sir:-In this mornings issue
of the Advertiser the following arti-
Gle appears.
''Tt was stated by mistake yester-
day that the promoter of the Sun
Chun Kwock DO was in pilikia. 1t
should have been the Mon Sang Vat
DO, the Chinese newspaper whose pro-
moter Ho Fon, must now pay to the
subscribers of the stock money they
subscribed. The charges of fraud
against him we're based ON the
grounds that the money collected for
stock was all spent although the COM
pany was never incorporated"
And in reply thereto beg to state
as foll:ws: I have lived in the Ha-
waiian Islands for the period of thir-
ty-three years, and Wal Chew is the
first one who ever brought suit
against me. 1t is stated in the arti-
Gle that I was the promoter of the
Mon Sang Vat DO and that the suit
was brought against me for fraud.
Allow me to state in the beginning
that I am not, nor have l ever been,
a promoter of the Mon Sang Vat Bo,
but have simply been employed as
the Manager of this newspaper at
regular monthly salary; and more
over, the suit brought against me in
the District Court by Wal Chew was
for commissions alleged to have been
earned by him, in securing advertise
ments for the newspaper and had
nothing to do with any money sub
scribed by stockholders. Inasmuch
as had never employed Wal Chew
either personally or as manager, I
did not see my way clear to accede
to his demands, and therefore con-
tested the case in the District Court.
If / had employed him I would most
certainly have paid him, for do not
believe I have earned the reputation
in this community for evading pay
ment of a just claim I would fur
thermore state that I am not now,
nor ever have been, the treasurer OF
the Mon Sang Vat Bo, nor has any
of the money of the subscribers OF
stock thereto ever come into my pos
session. On the contrary, the news
paper is now indebted to me for my
services as manager in the sum of
$114 go which I have been unable
to get.
Trusting that you will give this let
ter publicity.
beg to remain, yours very truly,
no FON.
