Dr. And Mrs. Hepburn placed their only living child, Samuel, in boarding-school, and sailed from New York on the Sancho Panza on April 24, 1859. Four months and five days later they reached Shanghai, China, where illness detained them sev- eral weeks. By the middle of October they reached Kanagawa, which is now a suburb of the growing city of Yokohama. In those days what is now called Yokohama was a mud flat, dotted with a few small huts occupied by fishermen. For a res- idence, they could find... nothing better in inhospitable Kanagawa than an old Buddhist temple which the Dutch Consul had declined to use as a stable. Idols and accumulated filth were removed, while soda and whitewash were needed to cleanse century-old deposits on walls that retained odors of joss-sticks and oil used in worship. Partitions were then put up, to make apartments in which Dr. And Mrs. S. R. Brown, as well as the Hepburns, found a home. Four men-servants were secured for two dollars each a month. From the servants, the carpenters, and visitors, curious to see the " foreign devils ' and their queer ways of living, they picked up many words in their practical study of the language of the Japanese.
