In the mid-1920s a group of 28 students at the Agricultural School of the then-named Tokyo Imperial University led by Prof. Takaishi Hajime 高石発 made a tour of northeastern China to study the state of agriculture. They departed from the port of Kobe and arrived at Tianjin. Thereafter they visited Beijing Dalian Fushan Mukden today’s Shenyang and finally Harbin before travelling by land through Korea to Japan.

1873réf. 23348Hong Kong 1873. Ephemera. Very good condition. A three page manuscript letter dated March 12 1873 from 'Charles' in Hong Kong to his sister 'Anna' in the United States. The letter was sent via San Francisco and the SS Colorado. Charles seems to be a young bachelor making his way in the Orient and he paints a detailed picture of daily events from a Westerners perspective but no real indication of why he is there. Charles and Anna were avid letter writers this one "No. 6" for the year. He refers to Anna's letters of Dec. 29 Jan. 5 19 that were just received. He talks of his lack of a Christmas and that most people who live in Hong Kong celebrate by getting "boozy" a sport he did not relish. He "would give more for 1 pound of good tobacco than 1 barrel of the best liquor." "For a young man who has not much determination this is the worse sic place in the world. There is nothing for him to do but play billiards & drink." He responds to Anna's questions about paper suits which were made in Japan a Joss house and the custom to accept an offer of tea 'you will have one of these little cups 7 saucers handed to you.' that he will send the 'Ivory letters to you for Miss Harrington' and refers to Anna's husband George other family and an acquaintance Wiliam Blanchard a pilot who lived in Shanghai as well as the 'great fire'. "The only thing I can say of the great fire is that it is too bad - but it may improve Boston by having different planned building and streets." The Great Boston fire of 1872 was Boston's largest and one of the most costly fire-related property losses is American history. He ends by sending his love to other family members and a request for a letter from George. The SS Colorado was the largest San Francisco-Panama route liner ever to sail the Pacific. She was originally brig-rigged but was altered in San Francisco in 1866 to enter the China service. In 1867 the Pacific Mail founded the first regular steamship service across the Pacific Ocean and the Colorado became the first American liner to carry mail across the Pacific to the Orient which helped pave the way for a rapid expansion of trade between California and the Orient. 4 page folded letter on watermarked paper "Hodgkinson & Co" with writing on 3 sides 8 3/8 x 10 1/8" with original fold marks. unknown

1842réf. 170558At sea & China: 1842-48. This ground is under English control though their authority is might makes right An American second mate's illustrated eyewitness account of China in the immediate aftermath of the First Opium War. Sailing east on a Jardine Matheson specie and opium runner he becomes an old China hand and a sharp observer of early colonial Hong Kong and Shanghai coastal trade and maritime life. The opening section consists of diary entries kept during the outward voyage from the United States describing a life of adventure entered almost by accident. "On the 1st of Sept. 1842 being in Boston and out of employ I shipped in the Schr Gazell" p. 1. The Gazelle - an Aberdeen-built schooner illustrated in watercolour at the front of the manuscript - sailed on 19 September 1842 with guns muskets and nine boxes of specie. Some 30 pages trace the passage with detailed daily entries including latitudes and longitudes weather hazards marine life shipboard routines and the rituals of crossing the Equator. After rounding the Cape the vessel encounters American traders off China and reaches Macao on 22 February 1843. The remainder of the manuscript comprises reflective recollections written later in the 1840s. Macao is judged healthy and pleasant but eclipsed after the war by Hong Kong now the hub of British trade. The Gazelle is reassigned to opium running along the coast bringing higher pay and extended travel. The author recalls Hong Kong in 1844: the nightly curfew gunshot the opium fleet at Whampoa and the crowded Pearl River illustrated with pencil sketches of local craft. His view of the Chinese population is unsympathetic though he offers a vivid portrait of "Boston Jack" a wealthy comprador and indispensable intermediary to American ships. Further chapters describe Canton the forts of the Bogue Amoy and its junks and Chusan praised for its industry and abundance. Shanghai emerges as a newly important centre of opium exchange its foreign settlement firmly under British control. The author sketches the harbour notes the thousands of junks and contrasts the city's "civil and obliging" inhabitants with those of Canton. The manuscript breaks off mid-sentence on page 50 leaving the writer's later life unknown but preserving a detailed first-hand record of a China on the threshold of colonial modernity.
