on the morning we left Ninguta was at
11° Fahrenheit, so we had to push on hard
to get to our farthest destination, which we
hoped might be on the sea, at the Russian port
just beyond Hunchun, and then back to our
original starting-point at Newchwang, before
the severest part of the Manchurian winter
overtook us. The road was terribly bad, again
crossing over ridges fifteen hundred to two
thousand feet in height, passing over heavy
bogs and morasses, and through forests of pine,
birch, and oak.

Hunchun we found to be simply a garrison
town. There were here about three thousand
troops, and the small town there served for
little else than to supply their wants. But we
discovered in it a number of European articles
which had been imported from the Russian
station close by. Clocks, sweets, soap, canned
fruits, and many other luxuries were to be
obtained here, and at a very reasonable price.
We bought a can of Singapore pineapples for
a shilling. In the direction of the Russian
frontier, which was only ten miles distant, were
some strong forts mounted with heavy Krupp
guns.
