Abstract
Having celebrated the Old Calendar Chinese New Year in Shanghai, Chih-ying and I began our journey north on the Shanghai-Nanking and Tientsin-P'u K'ou Railways in early February of the sixteenth year of the Republic [1927], taking with us our woman servant, Mama Chang. Shu-yu was waiting for us when we arrived at the Tientsin Railway Station. He arranged for us to hire several rickshaws, which took us straight to the Nankai University Faculty Residence in Pa-li-t'ai, where our address was No. 3, Pai-shu ts'un. With Shu-yu's help, we managed to settle in very quickly. He and his wife and their daughter lived in No. 6, three houses away from us. The dean of the Faculty of Letters, Mr. Huang Tzu-chien (Yu-sheng), lived in No. 4, right next door to us. (Six months later we moved into No. 9, so that we were still three doors away from Shu-yu, but five doors away from the Huang Family.
