Description
(Top photo) I was dreadfully worried about these two little Chinese boys whom I found sliding down the balustrade of the old Confucian Temple in Sian(Xi'an).

Note the trophies of guns, bicycles, flags and coats. The Chinese wrote the brief history of this raid in Chinese characters in the film, giving the trophies captured.
