Tuesday 5th

On board S.S. Teau between Hong-Kong and Manila. Woke up in Hong-Kong harbor this morn. No quarantine. H.K. quite a wonder. English city with five large buildings and paved streets. Saw some wood block paving. Things very cheap as this is a free port. Relieved the tobacco famine. Hot and sultry all day. Left the Br. Steamer "Teau" for Manila at 6P.M. Slept on deck all night.
