Note 191 — XXX. THE TIGER OF CHAO-CH‘ÊNG.

Herbert Allen Giles translation

Constables, detectives, and others, are liable to be bambooed at intervals, generally of three or five days, until the mission on which they are engaged has been successfully accomplished. In cases of theft and non-restoration of the stolen property within a given time, the detectives or constables employed may be required to make it good. return to text
