ceived q good education. He inherited
some money, which he squandered,
and, being regarded by his family as
q bad character, he was turned out.
He then came to Hong-Kong and set up
as afortune teller in ~Taipinshan, where
anyone could have his destiny told
him for a few cents. Finding he could
not make much In this line, he again
returned to Fatshan, where he started
an opium divan. When his friends dis
covered this they again tried to get
rid Of him, and he agreed to 60 away

money was found and the ex-fortune
teller started for Shanghai. When q
