I was shown several pictures of the victim taken by a Chinese artist. A man buys at a booth one penny's worth of what is known as "sow-sow" for himself and family. I have often looked into the sow-sow pots, but was never able to make out what was contained therein. The children buy little rice cakes, thin, hard, and indigestible as bits of slate.

It was out of the question to take the census of any town or province, because of the shifting population. It is nothing for a family to move many times in the course of the year; they can make thirty or forty miles a day. They have absolutely nothing to move unless it might be the family cooking "sow-sow" pot, which is hung over the shoulder on a string, or carried on top of the head.

The native food is rice, or, as it is called in the vernacular, "Sow-sow." It is cooked in an earthen pot set upon stones with a few lighted twigs thrust under it for fire. When it is eaten with nature's forks the fingers with a relish of raw fish, it is the chief article of diet. House-cleaning is one thing that I never saw in practice or evidence.
