After an hour or so the hubbub ceased
Out of sight went the swords. On their
knees before their leader the Boxers re-
peated the words of their oath. This done
the leader disappeared. BY ones and twos
the Boxers melted away. Yang and Ming
lay in the court yard pretending to sleep.
Just before daylight they picked up the
coffin just as | was beginning to snore in
a manner most unbecoming a corpse-even
a curious one-and bore me out of the inn.
Two miles or from the village, soon
after daylight, Yang released me from the
box pointing the way to Pekin.
That Boxer meeting, ceremony and drill
were held almost under the noses of the
allied troops. Yang, who turned up later
in the day TO claim his reward, tells me
that there are thousands of villages in
China where similar meetings are held
nightly. Unless people here. who are much
better informed than myself. are making a
huge mistake, the Chinese will find them
selves before spring warmed up for far
more obstinate fight than that OF last sum-
mer. Ii is beyond q serious doubt that
there are more than a million Cinnamon
seriously preparing for the new fray. Every
regiment of the allied troops leaving China
| at present increases our weakness before
| the onconling yellow horde.
