Extract

Of a Letter from Canton, July 9th, 1763, to James Garland, Esq. of Burlington Street.

“As to Hau Kiou Choaan, I inquired among my Chinese acquaintance about it, but without success, until I happen’d by chance to mention the Hero of the Story Ty-chung-u, when they immediately knew what I meant, and said in their jargon, “Truely have so fashion man 4 or 500 years before; have very true Story: How you can scavez he.”
