, 1842, but couldn't make out the per- son's name. Following the example of our predecessors, we placed our autographs upon the wall, and then with the sun an hour high, set out to return.
In returning, we took a different and more direct route, which led towards Old Whampoa, and after passing through a "City of the Dead" upon a knoll near the walls, we came to the gates of the city. In our walk through the town we found the streets to be unusually wide, and what is still more unusual, that sha
...de-trees by the sid^s of the streets and pretty squares and ponds, were numerous. By the Chinese them- selves it is regarded as one of their most pleasant and beau- tiful cities. In these a European seemed to be quite a curiosity, judging by the immense crowds that everywhere followed us, staring with open mouth and eyes ; and not a single Chinaman did we meet that could speak a word of English. We wandered about there some time in the vain endeavor to find any one to show us our way, until at last a bright eyed little boy, dressed as one of the higher order of Chinese, seeing our difficulty, came up to us, and by signs signified his ability and willingness to conduct us out of the city ; this he did, and refusing the offered reward, politely chin chined us off.
