CONFIDENTIAL 6. MISCELLANEOUS. a. (Information extracted from 6th Div. G-2 P/R #256, dated 1 July 46). On 27 June the Russian vessel ENESSEY went aground one-half mile off the coast of CHEJU¹ Island, near the village of CHONCHO-HI. On 28 June, an officer from the 6th Div went to investigate. The Captain of the ship refused to allow the officer to go aboard and stated that he only had engine trouble and required no assistance. On 29 June, another ship, slightly larger than the ENESSEY, accompanied by a smaller craft of about tugboat size, appeared near the same position and continued to steam back and forth about four miles off shore. A police patrol boat from CHEJU² with a MG officer and above-mentioned officer aboard went out to investigate, but both vessels fled in a northeasterly direction at the approach of the patrol boat. On 30 June, two MG officers and the 6th Div. officer boarded the grounded vessel without opposition. Nothing suspicious was found aboard. The ship had sailed from VLADIVOSTOK. Its circulatroy system and radio transmitter were found to be broken, and replacements must be obtained from VLADIVOSTOK. The Captain requested that a message be sent to VLADIVOSTOK, notifying the Commander-in-Chief Russian Pacific Fleet of the ship's troubles. This has been done by the American Command. b. The following tabulations comprise the status of the cholera epidemic in S. KOREA, as maintained by the Surgeon of USAFIK. It should be noted at this time that due to the many affected areas and the large number of cases, reports in the past from the various sources of information tended to be duplicated and inaccurate. The Surgeon's figures are the most reliable that can be obtained.
