I, SING KEE  that being the name white people know me by declare that Wong Ping told Lee Quong Chee Cow and myself in the China House, when there were no other Chinese around that he saw a money bag being delivered from the steamboat and he asked us if we would go inside the store and take it.  When it was dark we went; this may have been about two o'clock in the morning.    Lee Quong got in through the front window and opened the back door letting in Chee Cow and Wong Ping;  they searched around to find the key intending to open the safe inside the store, and may have been in from half an hour to three quarters of an hour.  Not succeeding in finding the key,  they got two sticks and Lee Quong and Chee Cow carried the safe while Wong Ping steadied it; after carrying it some distance they went to an Indian house and finding an axe outside, they took it and on returning to the safe Chee Cow broke it open;after taking the money  Wong Ping, Lee Quong and Cbee Cow went up into the woods and I returned to the China House, behind the Houses.
 +
I was on watch to give the alarm if any person came and saw Chee Cow break it open.
