Former Student Letters From Franklin College Turned Africa Mission
A former student recounts a voyage from Indiana to England and Africa. The letter reflects on Hoosier life, a sour memory of a pie, a farewell verse by C G Hartsock, and a later burial among those he served. The sender Inez Alery McGuire writes from Burma in 1915 praising the trip and memory.
