19264568Queen's Hill Kotagiri Nilgiris India: June 26 1926. Very good. 5pp. typed on plain folio sheets. Old folds minor wear. An informative and entertaining correspondence by Kate M. French written while serving as a missionary teacher at the Preston Institute in Jangaon India. Writing to "Friends at Home" French opens by reporting that the school year started well "except for two of the boys whose mother was ill with Plague" the mother subsequently died. French also mentions students getting stung by scorpions a cobra snake killed by the headmaster of the school making valentines for the entire school on Valentine's Day and much more. French also recounts the comings-and-goings of various officials to her mission writes in detail about her attendance at a "teachers' institute" composed of teachers from "the American Methodist the English Wesleyan the American Mennonites and our own" details the school's commencement at the end of the term and more. The local plague is mentioned several times in French's letter. She mentions her own inoculation against the plague. She also records that "before long we learned that there had been several deaths from plague in our town. We had nearly all our Christians innoculated some time before and Mrs. Rutherford at once had the stragglers attended to those who had fever when the doctor was innoculating and one or two who were not very strong and would only be done if the disease came near." Shortly thereafter French notes that "people are leaving town on account of the plague." An interesting letter from an American woman teaching at a mission in India in the midst of the Roaring Twenties. June 26 unknown
19115251London: March 29 1911. Very good. 1p. Previously folded. Contemporary manuscript annotation is left margin. Light toning. A brief but interesting letter dated March 29 1911 from Marshall Broomhall Editorial Secretary of England's China Inland Mission to the Rev. Arthur H. Smail a prominent American Missionary in China. Broomhall had recently published a book Islam in China in which he promoted the use of Arabic-speaking missionaries to proselytize Chinese Muslims. The book used information received from Smail about the Chinese Muslim population but Broomhall at certain points managed to confuse Beijing Peking and nearby Tongzhou Tungchow while apparently attempting to criticize Smail's statements. This letter apologizes to Smail for his error though the American seems to have still been cross -- having received the letter Smail noted in the left margin "Two pages gives to demolishing what I never said! March 29 unknown

19556091Various locations in Costa Rica and Panama 1955. Very good. Three photograph albums: 10 leaves illustrated with thirty photographs most with manuscript annotations in white pencil; 22 leaves illustrated with seventy-one photographs most with manuscript annotations; 20 leaves illustrated with forty-nine photographs each with manuscript annotation. Each album oblong octavo in different colored cloth bindings string tied. Minor overall wear with a handful of loose photographs. A collection of three annotated vernacular photograph albums documenting the activities of Methodist missionaries in Costa Rica and Panama in the mid-20th century. The photographs picture the subjects traveling in the two countries scenes inside and outside the classroom views of native peoples and dwellings a mission in Costa Rica and the associated language school headed by Denton Powell Royster who is pictured here and identified as "Pastor Royster". The images capture missionaries on the road at roadside picnics enjoying leisure time at meetings and dinner celebrations and engaging in similar activities. Many of the subjects are named providing excellent opportunities for deeper study; individuals here include Stan Sheldon Jean Spahr or Spahn Virginia Miller Virginia Forkell Naomi Calkine Lois Henry Lorraine Roth Betty Brown Gordon and Marilyn Marken Norm Piersma Wally DeSmet John Gilmore and others. The album was compiled by a female missionary likely a member of the Benz family as one image is captioned "Peggy Daddy Mom and Steve Benz." Another photograph of a young woman is captioned "Me enroute to the falls at Catalina." She also identifies herself in other photos including one of her swimming at Ojo de Agua but never seems to indicate her name. She appears to have been an instructor at the language school; one image shows her and a few others in "Phonetics" class and another pictures her with other teachers of the grammar class.<br /> <br /> A couple of the image indicate some of the missionaries are part of a "Honduran prayer meeting." Other scenes of interest feature a group photograph of the language school "scenes from a woodworking shop on our paseo to the Roysters" activities in a coffee processing plant and views of the Irazu volcano among others. The indigenous or local peoples pictured here include the Baltadano family of the Central American Church a woman named Angela de Varga an oxcart operator in Costa Rica a young woman identified as "Maria una buena empleada" a man named Don Antonio and a few others. Identified South American locations include Cartago Church "the ruins of the oldest church in Costa Rica" Gatun Locks and other scenes in the Panama Canal Roble Alto the countryside near Cartago and the interior of a church in Cartago. A diverse collection of images memorializing American missionary activities in South American in the Eisenhower years with excellent potential for further study. unknown
