The enemy must have suffered severely, the boarders having turned the junks' guns on them as they were escaping to the shore.

On the 16th I directed the "Eaglet" to return to Hong Kong; the junks were still burning, but at the time of "Auckland's" departure (at noon) nearly consumed.

The enemy have thus lost five fine vessels of their fleet.
