Nowhere had it yielded to the force of the running stream and become smooth. Dykes of it rose out of the water, bold and naked to the air, evidently denuded on both sides of the softer rock which formed its bed once, but had long since succum- bed to the torrent. The small village we stopped at to make repairs was a very flourishing timber station. The hills at the back were well cov- ered with fine fir trees, and a mountain stream flowed down from their inmost recesses, facilitating the transf...er of the timber from these back- woods to the main stream. October 2nd. — This morning I had the misfortune to be completely prostrated with a severe attack of dysentery accompanied by acute pain which lasted for some hours. I was obliged to stop the boat for four or five hours in order to ascertain the course which the malady was likely to take, harassed all the time with the thought of being compelled to relinquish my mission and return to Hankow crestfallen. ^ However, to my great relief, the disease was quickly and completely driven away by ojJium and ipecac pills, the efficacy of which in the early stage of this malady I can thankfully vouch for.
