活 大 Ta-ku
This village is situated at the mouth of the Pei-ho, on the southern bank of the river about 36 miles from Tientsin by water. The surrounding country is so flat and uninteresting that it is difficult for a stranger to detect the entrance to the river. Beyond the mouth of the river a large mud bank, clearly visible at low tide, stretches out to sea for some miles. It is through this bank and about 4 miles from the real mouth of the river that the bar extends with a width of 150 feet.
