KYRENIA,
6.3.16.
Hon. Chief Secretary,
As instructed I proceeded to Kyrenia and
took the following statements:
1. The statement of the Chief collector
of Customs.
2. The statement of the Commissioner.
3. The statement of the five persons
forming the crew of the "Evangelistria"
when the vessel sailed from Kyrenia.
2. I was assisted in my enquiry by the Chief
Collector of Customs,and, if I may venture to say
so, from the manner in which the sailor gave their
evidence we came to the conclusion that they were
not the class of persons who could undertake the
work of supplying submarines with petroleum with
success, and also that in fact they had not done so.
3. I have inspected olive refuse similar to
that sent in the "Evangelistria" to Rhodes and a
sample of soap similar to that which was on board.
The Chief Collector of Customs and I are inclined
to think that the smell left by the refuse and the
smell of the soap, together with the smell of the
lamps and of the paraffin which appears likely to
have been recently applied to the rustry firearm
found in the hold, may have caused the French sailors
to think that a considerable quantity of paraffin
had recently been on board.
