“During the greater part of the last⟳ year, I visited, in a junk, the maritime provinces of the Chinese Empire, viz : Canton, Fo-chan, Chanttong in Pih che le, and Manchow Tartary ; and made a beginning with the distribution of the word of life. I entered afterwards into the service of the honourable East-India Company, and revisited Canton, Fo-chan, and Changtong ; saw⟳ Che Keang and Keang Nan ; went over to Corea ; and imparted the word of eternal life also to some Japanese, whom we met at Loo Choo, in the harbour of Napa Keang.”
