days In this city as the guest of his cousin.
DR.. A ID. Forsy,he. at the Wyoming
AS a result of his work in the foreign
field DR.. Forsythe carries a scar across the
left side of his head caused by the blow of
a Korean robber in March, 1905. The story
of the injury to DR.. Forsythe shows the
peril of the missionaries while establishing
"Christ's kingdom among men," According
to DR.. Forsythe wealthy Korean had been
attacked by band of robbers and badly
wounded The medical missionary was CALL
ed in to render professional services, and
on account of the serious condition of the
injured man DR.. Forsythe stayed with him
for several days. The bandits again sur
rounded the house and after effecting an
entrance the missionary struck by the
leader of the band with a weapon resem-
bling AK, the blow nearly severing the
left and causing a serious injury.
The leaders of the band were soon after
ward taken prisoners and several of them
hanged for their completely In the injury to
Dr. Forsythe. The impetus received by the
sionary was best explained by DR.. Forsythe

myself to give medical treatment to of
the natives seemed to increase their conf
dence in work.

considered to have no chance to win.
