This wall is sixty feet thick, at this gate, and the whole wall around the city covers fourteen square miles. At no place is that wall thinner than twelve feet. ^ Nanking is very scattered. The city inside of the wall is so large that there not enough inhabitants to make it thickly populated, yet there are about 3,000,000 people in that city. Going through the city, we passed through the ruins'of the old j Tartar City, later coming to the! j groat Drum Tower, where we stop-! J ped for a view of the city and also to! inspect the tower, which really con- j j tallied nothing but an old drum,] many feet in diameter. We also] found several large bells. It is said | that this drum tower was built dur*; •Ing the reign of the first Ming, and j was constructed for the purpose of i • allin,: the populace together, in case’ of an enemy attacking the city. j ! Proceeding further, we passed; 1 through a lot of ruins, Including the] ‘ruins of an inner wall surrounding; ‘tlie old Manehu City, which was do-; | it roved in the recent rebellion.

Yesterday a junk was overturned off our bow, and another came near being over turned. That caused some little ex citement. We had moving pictures last night. Th?re is rf lot of visiting between the men of all ships, at night. ’ There is only one Ja n ship here, and the rest of the ships are now watching her very close, for It Is rumored that the Japanese are financing this war. We had our landing force made ready this morn ing. for an emergency. Saturday loomed up bright and hot. In the morning several trans ports crossed the river with troops and at quarters (9:00 a. m.) we saw three transports filled with soldiers pass down the river to form a flank movement. Nothing else happened the rest of the day. That night* be tween t\velve*and two o'clock, we hoard n lot of firing on shore and a lit tip later, a fire started and some small house was burnt to the ground. The next morning, we found out that a small body of looters had started the fire and the guard had fired upon them, killing many. Sunday, still hot and nothing do ing. S<nt a party to the Ming Toombs, bi t nothing else doing all day. We got copies of the Shang hai Mirers, and they tell a lot of revs about the fighting going on around there, which is plenty. Li one engagement there were 1,500 Rebel- killed jind many ochers wounded. Sunday evening we received word that W w:-aid si, - bt an hog the next morning. Monday. Then all kinds ot wild rumors went their round, -ome of the men said wq would go up the river, while sonic said we would go down the river, but the upshot of it all was that we were c > sight anchor, meaning nau! up the an chor and see that it is clear—a thing that has to be done every ■.reek when a ship is anchored in this river, because there is so much current, and one can never tell when the anchor would get fouled with some debris passing down the river. Sunday night at eight o’clock we received word that we would get un der wav at four o’clock the next morning for KuiKiang. 250 miles up the river, as there was fighting go ing on up there. The report added that a lot of missionaries were hem- tie. I could not find out where they were bound for, but hope they are bound for the same place we are. We| expect to get in between 12:00 noon and ne p. m. We arrived at Klukiang, China, July 29th, 1913. We found there three Chinese gunboats, three Eng lish, two Japanese, and three Ameri can warships, the latter being the Helena, Cincinnati and Samar usual, all hands are watching the Japs. This Is quite a large town. It is walled in and the wall is covered with vines. There is a large moun-l tain In the back ground, and on top of that is where a summer resort is! located. The missionaries also re-j side there. The place is called Ku-j Ling. Just before we came in, we! passed a great number of tents out-1 side of the wall, and many soldiers, j 'llic oniy tiling this place is espfepfal-j Iv noted, is for Us pottery. I am ‘ going to try and get some of it, if] possible, though there is no liberty, and the place is under martial law. The biggest missions in China are here, and they areValled the “\V. U., Missions.” I Just before we got up this far,) thirty miles below here, the Po-j yang lakes, are situated. We passed I near them. Each one of these lakes, j and there are three in all, are said! to be below each other, and to pass] through from one to another, a boat] bas to pass over falls. T his place. Klukiang, has a very! 'pretty river front. There are quite 1 r.u pi her of soldiers here, and I 1 hope to sec a healthy scrap, but ruth-] or lias U that we will not stay here; vi-vy lone, only thirty-six hours. !■ ho; e that report is ♦rue. for it is j the hottest place on t no river. j We are Senior Officers present, and; that menus that all Commanding] Offi.er*- of* all foreign ships cannot j do a tiling without the Admiral's; permission. These officers have been i coming' on board ever since we 1 anchored, and now there ts a bunch j of them on the quarterdeck, having j a conference with ’’the old man.” Mr. Dan McNeill spent a short] lime in Valdosta yesterday. 100 ACHES LAND—For lease or 1 sale. fV’Hnble for farming or [ stock raising, in ! 7 th ciatrict.

Tuesday, It rained asaln and there was nothing doing, hut to watch the river hanks for BOldlers. Wednes day, a party of fifty from the crew made a trip to the toombs, and that day we received news that all trains were stopped between here and Shanghai. That fact meant no mall, except by steamer. More soldiers crossed the river and a good many wounded returned from an engage ment up the river. Thursday, there was another Ger man and British ship come In, with an English Vice-Admiral. Then came many conferences on board. No one was allowed to go ashore that day. In the evening, the Cincinnati came In and we got mall. In this mall I received a copy of The Times-En- prise from home, telling about our hall. Also the news from Shang hai stated that all the river steam- rs had been seized by the South erners and used as transports.
