Légende

Sketches in Formosa: the savages feel our muscle, 1890. 'Two more of the Sketches by Mr. E. Hornby Grimani, who resided some months at Takow, in the south-west of the island of Formosa, appear in this week's publication. They belong to the incidents of his journey, with two companions, riding ponies, to the hill country above Bankimsing, where he met some of the savage race of mountaineers. These wild folk, animated by no hostile intention, but rather by childish curiosity, entered the house of the old Spanish missionary priest, where the English visitors were hospitably entertained, and made a thorough inspection of their clothes and of their persons'. From "Illustrated London News", 1890.
