   • 1889 October 9, Pelham Warren, Commerce of Takao and Taiwanfoo (Reports from the Consuls of the United States)‎, volume 32, Washington, D.C.: Government Printing Office, page 201:

     The attempts of the governor to raise revenue by increasing the land-tax five-fold resulted in an outbreak of determined opposition and culminated in actual insurrection in the latter part of the summer of 1888. The first rising took place at Pilam, a town on the southeast coast. The Chinese settlers there entered into an alliance with the neighboring savages, and, in spite of the dispatch of some 3,000 troops, appear to have successfully held their own. What the result would have been in the long run it is difficult to estimate, but the anti-land-tax movement having broken out in the district of Changhua, in the very center of the island, the authorities, it is believed, compromised the question at Pilam, so as to have their hands free to cope with the much more formidable state of affairs at Changhua.
