Excerpt from The Private Letters of Sir James Brooke, K. C. B., Rajah of Sarawak, Vol. 2 of 3: Narrating the Events of His Life, From Its 1838 to the Present Time The Murdoo people were punished with the loss of their town, and had from fifty to seventy men killed or wounded, which loss arose chiefly from their standing in their stockade, instead of picking us off steadily from the jungle. On our side we had two men killed, and about a dozen wounded, most of them severely. Chads, the first lieutenant of the Harlequin, was cut down by a native, and most seriously hurt, his left hand being nearly severed from his body, and his side laid open for seven or eight inches. I was likewise amongst the wounded, as in charging a stockade I got a spear thrust, which cut my eye-brow in two, a light but very bloody scratch, which has slightly injured my beauty; and at the same time a shot inside my right arm, which rendered me for the time hora-de combat my eye is now well, and my arm so well that you may observe that I write as badly as usual. This redoubted action took place on the 12th of February, 1844. Behold me then a wounded hero, and I must confess that my vanity was flattered by the crew of the Wanderer, who made a request to be allowed to cheer me, when I quitted the brig.
