An Austrian named Henschell was the second to arrive in Shangri-La. His initial interest was in acquiring gold.

For it was then that a second stranger from Europe arrived in the valley of Blue Moon. He was a young Austrian named Henschell who had soldiered against Napoleon in Italy — a youth of noble birth, high culture, and much charm of manner.
