From them a Chinago rarely expected more than the unexpected. The heavy punishment for a crime they had not committed was no stranger than the countless strange things that white devils did. In the weeks that followed, Ah Cho often contemplated Ah Chow with mild curiosity. His head was to be cut off by the guillotine that was being erected on the plantation.
One discontented person, having fled to Lechulatebe, was encouraged to go to a village of the Bapalleng, on the River Cho or Tso, and abstracted the tribute of ivory thence which ought to have come to Sekeletu. This theft enraged the whole of the Makololo, because they all felt it to be a personal loss.
"To-morrow approaches," replied the merchant evasively. "If it concerns the detail of the reduction of your monthly adequacy, my word has become unbending iron." "It is written: 'Cho Sing collected feathers to make a garment for his canary when it began to moult," replied Lin acquiescently.

Some variety was introduced into the treatment of Cho Tok-chan, a Presbyterian pastor, at Chong-ju.
"Know what?" Ah Cho was beginning to feel a vague alarm. "Won't Schemmer let me work for him any more?" "Not after to-day." Cruchot laughed heartily. It was a good joke. "You see, you won't be able to work after to-day. A man with his head off can't work, eh?" He poked the Chinago in the ribs, and chuckled. Ah Cho maintained silence while the mules trotted a hot mile.

Hal saw that the ground was covered with six inches of coal-dust, while on the old disused walls one could write his name in it.
Dividends must be paid, or else one more failure would be added to the long history of failure in Tahiti. There was no understanding these white devils. Ah Cho pondered their inscrutableness as he sat in the court room waiting the judgment. There was no telling what went on at the back of their minds. He had seen a few of the white devils.
