Hearing that the schabs in Limchat had been louted and disturbed the scholars became frightoned and all left the school There may, however, have been another reason, as it is certified the money had all been spent, but in either case it shows the Chinese are easily frightened and that they do not have much trust in their own oficials to protect them, for the man darin's dico is only a stone's throw from the school.
