Rebels on the war path again. The warship’s guns in action again. Ensign Darrin invades the yamen. “Burnt-face” makes his appearance. “The rioters are about to attack, sir!”
[Chapter VII—Fighting from the Ramparts]
Sin Foo turns green. The treasure of the burned mission. Belle Darrin cool under fire. Fighting men must eat. The mystery of Pembroke. Mrs. Darrin gets a tip. “That is an awful thought.”
[Chapter VIII—The Swarm of Night Furies]
Yellow soldiers “get the gate.” The yamen door goes down. A stern warning. Machine guns sweep the hordes. Scaling ladders against the walls. “Prepare to repel boarders!”
[Chapter IX—The Traitor of the Yamen]
“We are going to have a noisy night.” American blood is drawn. “Let ’em have it strong!” Fighting for their lives. Dave and Dan are without fear. An unequal battle. Ensign Darrin makes a terrifying discovery.
[Chapter X—Darrin Lays the Traitor Low]
“Help here! Quick!” Five men against scores. Battle yells change to groans of pain. “Good work, Darrin and all hands.” Dave makes an arrest. Gongs make night hideous. Rebels rush the yamen.
