Dog is a subject named in General Swart, Pacifier of Atjeh (1943) by M. H. du Croo, in connection with the history of Atjeh and the governorship of H. N. A. Swart.
Account in du Croo’s Generaal Swart (1943)
From C. H. R. Heins
A Chinese mason was severely wounded in the same attack; the murderers fled to the mountains with two of the overseer’s sporting guns and ammunition. That same morning the controleur of Lho’ Nga left overland for Lhong with two groups, while H. N. A. Swart himself went by the s.s. Dog in the afternoon, and two further groups went to Leupoeëng to prevent the affair spreading. The murder was for Swart “a very sharp and painful disappointment indeed — after the attack at Daja, now murder and band-formation in quiet Groot Atjeh as well.”
From Resistance in Daja and Lhong (1914)
That became apparent the following month, and again in the quiet directly administered territory of the afdeeling Groot Atjeh. The maandverslag reported: “On the morning of 13 July the overseer of Public Works, C. H. R. Heins, was murdered at Lhong (sub-division Lho’ Nga) by seven persons of that territory, while a Chinese mason was severely wounded. After the murder the killers fled into the mountains with two sporting guns belonging to the overseer and with ammunition. That same morning the controleur of Lho’ Nga left overland for Lhong with two groups, while the reporting officer went there in the afternoon with a group aboard the s.s. Dog. On the same day two further groups left for Leupoeëng to prevent what had happened at Lhong from spreading there.”
