By birth poor, Soo Yea Yoke was not

an ordinary Chinese coolie. He was held in high esteem by the best element of his compatriots in Boston, not only because he was of good personal char- acter, but for social reasons as well. lie came of a better caste than most of the

family impoverished. His widow and little son Yoke were saved by an old

family servitor, who was then employed in a British consulate, and hidden on a

house boat on the Ta Klang river, which flows by Canton. These house boats are often ln part floating market gardens and families are borne and reared upon them.

Yoke had wealthy relatives in Man-

churla,andthey sent for him when the

hue and cry was over. They wished to educate him for a life of preferment as a member of the official class. But he re- fused to leave the little house boat. He

was as foolish as any Caucasian when in love.

He marrriezi the daughter, of thc o`d family servltor and that rieharred him from his own family circle. Yolre`s mother was reared,in luxury and could not endure the low caste of life. She
