CHINESE BRIGANDs

While I was busily packing speci-
mems the afternoon before arrange

parture for Sianfu. there was great
excitement at the village temple. Two
hundred brigands were on their way
up the valley and would soon ar

fear. They reminded me of flock
of panic stricken hens as they
dashed about. collecting their be-
longings and continually swapping
their rifle bolts to stimulate their
failing courage. I really was afraid
they would shoot some of us by mis-
take; for a rifle in the hands of

We took particular care to treat
