CHAPTER III.
BACK TO PEKING.
WE now turned our faces homewards. We had
reached the limit of our journey, and now had
to hurry back to the coast at Newchwang.
Mr. James went by a short cut to Kirin, while
Fulford and I, with the carts, travelled round
by Ninguta to meet a man whom we expected
with letters. On November II we left Hun-
chun, and now winter had regularly set in.
The thermometer was at zero or a degree or
two above or below it, and snow was beginning
to fall. At Ninguta we found the river, which
we had three weeks before crossed in a ferry,
and which was about one hundred and fifty
yards broad and with a by no means slow
current, now frozen over so completely that
we could run our heavily laden carts over on
the ice. Here we at last received letters, the
first batch since we had started on our journey
