This transcription comprises two historical documents from the late 19th century, originating from T’an-wen under the jurisdiction of Chiung-shan magistrate, dated 16th day of the second lunar month, 1890 (Gregorian: March 18, 1890). Document I is a list of nineteen individuals implicated in an uprising against the Catholic Mission, including Chang-Jui-Ching, Chang-Chung-Piao, and others from villages such as Hao-chün-iuen, Chia-hu, and Lo-wan. Document II is a letter from Ma-Fu-Iao, Superior of the Catholic Mission, addressed to Magistrate Wang-Tsi-Chang, detailing a dispute over rice measurement standards in T’an-wen’s market. The Mission had funded the creation of standardized measures and collected a rental fee of two sapecas per use, managed by Catholic Chan-Siung-Shang. In the preceding year, local elder Chang-Jui-Ching sought to seize control of the revenue, claiming it should fund a school; the Mission granted him one year’s rent to avoid conflict. In the current year, the Mission ordered Siung-Shang to reclaim the measures, but Chang-Jui-Ching refused, conspired with accomplices including Iang-Hung-Chiue and Iang-Hung-Ie, and falsely accused Siung-Shang of instigating violence against them. The magistrate ordered local officials to interrogate the parties, but they encountered Siung-Shang on the street. These documents provide insight into colonial-era local governance, religious mission dynamics, economic regulation, and communal conflict in Fujian, China, during the late Qing period.

Correspondencia do Governador do Bispado em Macau com Consul em Cantão
-
This is a collection of official diplomatic and ecclesiastical correspondence dated between 26 March and 11 April 1908, originating from the Portuguese Consulate General in Canton, the Episcopal Administration of Macau, and mission authorities on Hainan Island. The documents concern a series of violent anti-Christian disturbances in Tang-von (T'an-wen), Hainan, beginning on 18 March 1908, during the final year of the Guangxu era. Led by local scholars Zhang Ruijing and Zhang Ruijiu with the complicity of the District Magistrate, villagers from eight surrounding settlements attacked the Portuguese Catholic Mission, looted Christian homes, destroyed sacred objects, and imprisoned seven Christians—some severely injured—under brutal conditions. Father Francisco de Paula Situ, the missionary, was besieged for three days without food or water. The unrest stemmed from a dispute over market measurement standards previously regulated by the Mission. The Superior of the Hainan Mission, Father Manuel Maria Marques, reported extensive damage to the chapel, residences, and religious property, and demanded compensation of at least $300,000 réis. Due to the absence of a Portuguese consular agent on Hainan, information was relayed via Macau’s Bishopric under José da Costa Nunes, prompting Consul João Damaso da Costa de Moraes to request intervention from the Portuguese Minister in Peking and coordinate with French consular authorities, who held protective jurisdiction over Catholic missions in China. The Viceroy of the Two Kuang Provinces issued telegraphic orders to suppress the disturbance, and by late March, order was restored through military intervention. A joint inspection on 29 March confirmed widespread destruction. The documents reflect colonial-era diplomatic protocols, ecclesiastical authority structures, and Sino-foreign tensions in late Qing China, offering critical insights into missionary protection, cross-border governance, and local resistance dynamics.
