Wong Foo had two prospectors' huts set in cultivated plots. In one he kept utensils and table implements, which he used in imitation of Bewuck. In this he had berths prepared for the girls. His feast included one duck per person cooked in Chinese fashion, with a great array of vegetables, followed by Oriental comfits.
The Delacys were proud of Wong Foo and justified in their fosterage. Wong's gallantry jacked-up that of the others, and the girls had pretty presents and more attention than they could absorb.
