Mance of a French Diploma and Jaunot the diplomat

An old schoolfellow recounts Lemaire later French Consul General at Shanghai and Hue. He was nicknamed Jaunot for his yellow complexion, bullied as a quiet boy, then sent to sea after a fatal accident involving a cousin. He later learned Chinese at Saigon, became interpreter, married a Cochin Chinese woman, and rose to a renowned diplomat amid the “yellow people.”
