The venue of the hunt was in the west of Kwangtung province, fifteen miles north of the West River. I passed a day në Keon Wui, a sinull market town, and in the evening, having, after much haggling, purchased a dog as bait, set out for the hills where the tiger; have their abode. It was not without considerable difficulty that a Chinaman could be induced to come out. The Chinese stand in the greatest terror of the tiger, and even apply the propitistory adjec. tive venerable" to it. They cannot indeed be blamed for their state of mind, as they have no adequate weapons with which to meet the formidable beast.
Finally, however, a sturdy yokel agreed to come with ma, and he was put in charge of the bait and necessary victuals. We set out for the hills much later than I had hoped, and it was already dark when we entered a narrow valley leading up to the deserted hat where the night was to he spent.
