內容摘要說明:Baro. 30-18. Calm' nice day. Last-night Aminoff' Lawson and Johnstone came and chatted till 10 p.m. Being cold and wet I had a bright fire in my upper room and expected a brilliant time reading' noting (譯註:原稿為noteing) and writing about Evolution. Grand device my noble country man. Dawson of Montreal has done for Eternal truth! Thank you Dana for "Science--- can take no steps toward setting aside a Creator." Well' now Evolutionist what do you anyhow make of the Monkeys belonging to the Miocene period' being like our Pet Monkey from the mountains of Eastern Formosa? Mesopithecus' sure enough is very similar. Never mind' have patience there will be a reaction then God will be glorified as Creator. "Fukien" went out at 4 p.m. Lawson off by her. ---- whilst waiting for a Steam launch Aminoff and myself saw a fellow dragged in great haste along the ground or rather stoned street. A crowd gathered around. He feigned death. An official brought him to the upright position with a few bamboo strokes. He was a thief. Arriving at Bang-kah after a fine trip on the launch with Doctor Angear and Pennington. I had exercises with our people for an hour.- Sin-tsng. Bap.7
