Collected by: Skeat.W.W in : " Occasionally used as a sun shade. Made from the leaves of a palm called ' Kejing' whence the manufactured article also takes it' s name. Said to be better for driving rain than the ordinary, Chinese, round umbrella, as they can be held up sideways(when held vertically)"
