	Tales of Old Shanghai - Library - The Writings of Andrew Stritmatter (1847 - 1880) Missionary in China in the 1870's
		Two unhappy wretches were brought back to Kiukiang, and early one Sunday morning about three weeks ago were led out to be beheaded.
		The place of execution was on an open, grassy spot outside the city wall, and on the margin of a lake, where all the washing of the foreign community is done.
		One man who was a spectator of this tragedy, said that the man who was first beheaded did not seem to realize what was going to be done with him until his head was off; when of course it was too late to protest against the proceedings.

		As Kiukiang came into sight, they saw that all the streets were cleared and that there was no sign of any activity on the ground.
