"A pathetic incident of our day at Muping was a visit from the widow of the Tibetan prince from Tatsienlu. She came with her daughter, a girl of eleven. The woman was plain, middle-aged and rather stupid looking. The purpose of their visit was to ask us to intercede for them with the Chengtu government. They were afraid that the government might have them executed. I am persuaded that their fear was groundless, but it was very real to them. They brought us gifts of dried meat. We gave them in return a silk scarf. On leaving us they stopped at our kitchen to beg an empty tin can from the cook."
End of that story, on to the hunting. This tone ran throughout the book. ( )
