Lu was one of the states in the east, having its capital in Khue-fau, which is still the name of a district in the department of Yen-kau, Shan-tung. According to Ku, king Khang invested the duke of Kau's eldest son with the territory.

At any rate, Tims is at least eighty-five, and possibly older. Here again we have a definite conviction of the use of the word Ku Klux before the War. The way he talks of it, the term might have been a colloquial term applied to a jayhawker or a patroller. He doesn't mean Ku Klux Klan when he says Ku Klux. The Lincoln story is included on my part merely because it is at least legendary material.

"By fast work they could be, and so saved, although the subsequent operations will take weeks. But the brains cannot be transplanted into the heads of my four white assistants." "What?" Both the Hawk and Leithgow cried the word out together. "They cannot?" Dr. Ku looked at them as though astonished. "Why, no, my friends!

Somers, an English traveler, says that at this time "nearly every respectable white man in the Southern States was not only disfranchised but under fear of arrest or confiscation; the old foundations of authority were utterly razed before any new ones had yet been laid, and in the dark and benighted interval the remains of the Confederate armies swept after a long and heroic day of fair fight from the field flitted before the eyes of the people in this weird and midnight shape of a Ku Klux Klan."

Ef I breaks the law I'll take the consequences like a man, but I'll be damned ef ennybody shall Ku Kluck me without somebody's goin' 'long with me, when I drops outen dis world! Dat much I'se sot on!" The sheriff did not answer, only to say, "Careful, careful! There's them that would give you a high limb if they heard you talk like that." They went together to the house.

This account of P'an Ku and his achievements is of Taoist origin. The Buddhists have given a somewhat different account of him, which is a late adaptation from the Taoist myth, and must not be mistaken for Buddhist cosmogony proper.
