At this city, the Fêng River turns westward. While we were in Chü-wo, we decided to pay a visit to Chiang Chou to have a look at the various curio ships in that city.[...]Having gone to Chiang Chou from Chü-wo by the northern route through Hou-ma, we returned over a bypath through mountains in the south which has been gradually elevated from the Fêng River valley by loess deposit.[...]After we returned to Chü-wo, our next trip was to dash across Chung-t'iao-shan.]
