| Summary: | This transcription comprises two historical documents from the late 19th century, originating from T’an-wen under the jurisdiction of Chiung-shan magistrate, dated 16th day of the second lunar month, 1890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. |
