This is a photograph of "a close-up of the headress of the Yau. Hair is permitted to grow long and then coiled up. These Yaus pay our mission in Pingnam [now Pingnan] a visit every time they come to the city to do business. As you know, they are aborigines, and are within our mission territory. Gowen History of China will give you some [information] on the conquest of the Yaus. He have no Christians among these people yet."
