widest parts of Central China in
search of his wife and child, DR..
George Hadden, a missionary from
Ireland, encountered adventures that
rival fiction.
In his hunt he covered 10000
miles, traversed Human province to
the border of Tibet, was pelted with
clods by 1000 semi-barbarous Chi
nese at Kueiyangchow and had many
thrilling escapes from death.
The Haddens were stationed at the
mission at Yungchowfu, where he
has been the missionary for seven
years, and they were separated in
March, 1910, by the Shangsha riots
on the Yang river, tributary of the
Yangtse Kiang. Mrs. Haddon was
carried to Hankow, where on st.
Patrick's day she gave birth to a boy.
