Life in China.The Chinese Pirates are a treacherous and unscrupulous race infesting the southern coast of China. Living in caves near the shore they await a passing or disabled vessel, and when assured of its defenceless character by their sentinels, they advance from their hidden harbours and endeavour to overcome their prey.
