Every evening we opened fresh gourds of hoopa and made large inroads into our stores of pai, pickled gobangs and raw crawfish. How long this kept up I cannot say, for we had given up time reckoning along with other forms of arithmetic. But I well remember that it was the Captain who had to intervene at last. "Look here, boys," he said.

* From here to the California mission of San Gabriel would hardly have been as difficult as the route taken, excepting perhaps the matter of water, and little if any further than the distance to Santa Fe, but the Pai Utes could give him no information of the distance to the sea.

He said it was "Kahore pai;" or, as a Scotsman would put it, "no canny." Tama keeps the guard and seals to wear on festive occasions. But the watch, no. He has had enough of such silly things.

Tu Shih-niang nu ch'en pai pao hsiang. In the reign of the emperor Shen Tsung there lived an official named Wu, who was at that time, Governor of Ch'ang-sha. His wife, Lin, had given him a son named Ya-nei, or "In-the-Palace," who had that year reached the age of sixteen.

Anciently it appears to have bifurcated at Pai Pul, 18 or 20 miles N.W. of Susa, and to have sent a branch east of the Susa ruins, which absorbed the Shapur, a small tributary of the Dizful stream, and ran into the Kuran a little above Ahwaz.
