Corea

Note 2 — Chapter XL · PERSECUTION AND MARTYRDOM—1801–1834.

Reading edition

Captain Broughton was impressed with “the gorgeous Corean dresses,” and the umbrella-hats, a yard in diameter. He asked for beef, but they gave him only wood, and he was tantalized with the sight of fat cattle grazing near by, which he was unable to get or purchase. He cruised in the Sea of Japan and the Gulf of Tartary, naming several places on the Corean coast. See p. 203. ↑
