BOOKS FROM CHINA IN Ii
BRARY OF UNION He
BREW COLLEGE.

The hooks which Mr.. Oko brings ia
this country constitute all of the manu-
scripts known to have been written by
the Jews living in China. Four addi-
ticgal manuscripts were stolen some
years ago while on exhibition in Lon
don. 4|
The manuscripts include hymnals
and prayer hooks which were brought
\ frcm China 10 London by the London
/ Society for Promoting Christianity
among the Jews in China, and were
purchased by missionaries of that or
ganization in the village of Kae-Fung-
! foo.
The introduction to the history
reads. in part. ms follows:
''Thc money for the purchase of the
books was made available by group
of Jews. In the West, headed by Ben
Selling of Portland; Ore, and Rabbi
Jcnah Wise son of Isaac NJ. Wise. late
founder of the Hebrew Union College.
Accompanying the manuscripts is a
history of the experiences of the mis-
sionarics of the village of Kae-funs
foo.
Instead of being in the form of
scrolls, as might be expected. the
manuscripts are fan shaped. The OBJ
long pages are folded one upon the
other and the reader pulls the pa ges out
fnnwisc. go. -, e..
THE history relates how In the mid
die of the nineteenth century the once
powerful Jewish groups of China had
fallen into poverty and were victims
OF persecution and starvation. :.
since the british Treaty of Nank-
ing in 1912 many Christians in Europe
has directed their attention toward ti',
Jews in China. 1t was at their re-
quest that the writer of these intro
ductory remarks undertook TO dfreft
