Her letter, written from London,
follows:
Last night at 9:30 I arrived in
London. 1t hardly seems possible
that the struggle is over. | left the
mission house in Beirut about 1880
noon Friday, August 5. Arrange
ments had been made there with a
porter to get my four bags, but as
is true of everything out here he
never came altho we phoned to see
what was the trouble.
As a last resort went out in
the street and bargained with a
Kurdish porter to take my bags
down on his back in the heat-and
l do mean heat 1t seems strange
that just such a short time ago l
was dripping sweat from every pore
to sitting here and being cool-wear-

arrival in London last night
When l finally got down to the
travel agency the man in charge had
gone thru customs-they close at l
o'clock and | was out of luck until
they returned at 3, and the boat was
supposed to leave Beirut at A. Was
my heart ever in my mouth.
When we finally got to customs it
was a virtual demonstrating out
of money was the principal worry
and | was forced to go through the
indignity of taking off my under
clothes to let some girl see whether
or not l had money secluded under
my girdle.
Then she went thru my purse with
a fine tooth comb. In my statement
of money of 1000 francs, worth
about 5000, $3.50 in travellers
checks, and 10 pounds sterling, the
only thing they questioned was the
English money,-and then when ]
tried to cash it last night found il
no good-it was withdrawn from
circulation here in England at the
beginning of the War.
Then | finally got myself and bag
gage on board, keeping an eagle
eye out so that none of it was miss
ing. Never again will | travel with
more than can carry, two is the
limit.
