Acts of Kindness

Before closing I should like to express my gratitude to all those who shewed us such" very great kindness. To Capt. Indrach and Lieut. Lachanovchy of the Zenta, who when our servants deserted. us, sent sailors to wash and cook and did every thing in their power to cheer us up and help us. To Capt. Wise of the Monocacy who met us at the Tangku Station and whose servant looked aiter our baggage, and last but not least to Capt. Warwick and his Officers, who readily gave up their cabins and have been kindness itself all through these trying times.
