He was the richest of all the Quarter, and his riches had come to him by the misfortunes of others : not by the 189 Whispering JJ r indows honourable means of trade or the gaming- table. He was a money-lender, and crafty in his method. When sums loaned became due, he would simulate kindly concern with the affairs of his debtor, and would gently pass back a portion of the money : and few were at Hist sufficiently keen-witted to detect the trick. Always he was affably ready with cash assistance t...o the needy and unfortunate; and as men do not freely talk of their pecuniary embarrassments, or compare notes upon their treatment by usurers, it came about that half Chinatown was in great or small degree in his power. When he began to use his power he became a nuisance; and store-keepers and Laundry-men began to sutler acute disorder of mind. Unable to resist his power, they directed their animosity against those of his Tong ; and again those street battles, which Boy Blue had so often quelled, broke out again.
