Excerpt from The Talking Handkerchief: And Other Stories One of the tales that was told me in China I will here repeat; for convenience of narration I will give it in the first person Singular, and singular enough it is to the American who has never seen Asia. Familiarity with the manners and customs of Chinese sailors during a residence of several years in the southern provinces had naturally made me reluctant to travel on native vessels, however peaceful might be the appearance of thing's in gen eral. Judge, then, of my feelings when the chief of our house at Swatow called me into the private office one afternoon, and said he wished me to leave in an hour for Hong Kong.
