There are over fifteen thousand Klings, Chuliahs, and other natives of India on the island, and with their handsome but not very intellectual faces, their Turkey-red turbans and loin-cloths, or the soft, white muslins in which both men and women drape themselves, each one might be an artist's model.
"You are pale," she continued, slightly pressing my hand before releasing it "ah, how sorry I am!" "I am pale because I have been ill recently," I responded, conscious that all my becoming pallor was changing to turkey-red. "Ill? oh, how sad! What a world of trouble we live in!

A bed in one corner took up most of the space, and the remaining necessities were bestowed with the compactness of a ship's cabin.
