A UNIQUE FUNCTION
Malaya Tribune., 7 November 1925, Page 6
A unique function took place yesterday afternoon culminating in an imposing procession of Chinese, carrying scrolls and other paraphernalia from Gaylang to Market Street.
On enquiries made our representative was informed that behind this function lay an interesting story of serious fights and feuds among the squatters on Alsagoff's estate at Geylang. On this property there are over 4,000 Chinese squatters and for over three years there has been constant clashes between them and the Indian and Malay lessees. So serious and heated have been their differences for years past that on more than one occasion quarrels resulting in killing and other violence have occurred.
Mr. Quah Cheow Kay, a public spirited gentleman on behalf of his towkay Mr. Oei Thian Earn, of Chop Seng Jit Hin, 24 Market Street, set out sometime ago to effect an understanding and compromise between the parties on Alsagoff's estate. This, after a great deal of time and trouble, was effected a few days ago and the Chinese squatters to show their gratitude to both Mr. Quah Cheow Kay and Mr. Oei Thian Earn, organised the procession and presentations were made.
At Market Street a well attended reception was held and among those present were a large number of Europeans.
Grateful Squatters.
