(30)  The first day I hunted goral I was attracted to one by a sharp bird like snort or bark.  This sound of alarm I have not heard since & is given only rarely.  Teng-yueh is a walled town the wall of the same size and structure as that of Tali-fu.  Outside the wall is a cleared space or grassy meadow & a shallow dry moat.  Inside the town are many open gardens & even ponds, many of the people & all the Europeans live outside the town.  The streets of the town are wide like those of Yun-nan fu.  The morning hunt for goral netted nothing but in the afternoon I shot [[strikethrough]] the la [[/strikethrough]] a fine large [[symbol: male]] which was pointed out to me by a party of Chinese from the road.  He was lying asleep on a ledge near the base of the large cliff about 300 yds from the west rim or road.
