All that day, Fr. Perboyre hid in the forest. At night he went to a Christian's home where he had a little food, had his beard cut off and slept. The next day, he moved out to the forest again, then to another house for the night. But here he was betrayed by a young Christian for 30 ounces of silver. That morning the traitor led the soldiers to the exact spot where Fr. Perboyre and 3 Christians were hiding. When they saw they were surrounded, his companions wanted
to fight their way out with knives, but Fr. Perboyre refused to let them use any violence. Soon they were captured as well as all the other Christians hiding in the forest. They took Fr. Perhoyre to the top of the mountain, stripped off his clothes and put rags on him; they tied and chained him and beat him. Then they marched him to the market place at Koang-yin-tang. This was Sept. 15, 1839.
