men employed by a rice merchant In Quinhon, which is on the Indo- China coast.
A few weeks ago, they left Quinhon to proceed to Faifoo, fur- ther up the coast, to sell a cargo of rice, being accompanied by a broker employed by the rico mer-
chant.
After disposing of the cargo, they proceeded to Hue, the capital of Annam proper, to pick up A return cargo of chinaware and other goods. The broker stayed behind when the boat started on the return voyage.
They left Hue on July 18. The sea was then calm, but on the next day, on the approach of a typhoon, the wind rose and blew the craft out of its course. Heavy seas were encountered, and rain came down In torrents. The efforts of the crew were divided between keep- ing the boat before the wind and balling aut the water.
