American Benefactor in Jerusalem Recalled by Bible Society
The British and Foreign Bible Society reveals that during the 1915 departure of its Jerusalem depot, an American resident of Jerusalem named M. M. Whelan sheltered the Bible Society’s copies and presented a copy of Scripture to the first London Scottish regiment entering the holy city. Details on Whelan’s origins remain scarce, though he is described as a naturalised Irish citizen living in Jerusalem before the war. The tale highlights American aid amid the Jerusalem campaign and the depot’s survival under local guardianship.
