Burial at Sea of Massachusetts Bound Chinaman
The Matoppo, a Chinese and Japanese steamer bound for Boston, buried Chin Ah Fong at sea fifty miles east of Cape Cod after he died of heart disease in his bunk. The 21 Chinese firemen refused to heave the body, an inquest followed, and Captain Dormand steered toward China for the ceremony to send the departed Chinaman’s soul back to the flowery kingdom. The ship carried 50 tons of Chinese fire crackers and vast cargo including copper, tin, emporium goods, and curios.
