$50, 900 ransom for his release, was re-
ceived here today by Father William T.
Cummings. N. NJ, San Francisco supe-
rior Of the Mary Knoll fathers.
The staying occurred late in December
in the bandit-infested Tingehow dis
trict of Fukien. The Dominican mis-
sionary band had sought refuge with
the Mary Knoll fathers in the Having
mission field after they had been driven
from their own district.
But Father Ludwig, the report re-
ceived here stated, determined to re-
turn to his mission alone, after hearing
q report that 1t had been abandoned by
Communists and bandits.
"The reports reaching me-" said
Father Cummings, states that Father
Ludwig regained his district. found his
church in ruins, regathered his con-
verts and was conducting prayers when
police turned bandits. seized him,
dragged him OF to the mountains and
imprisoned him in q cage, sending no.
tice to the church he was held for
ransom.
"The church and its orders in China
have an understanding not to pay ram
