1932réf. 030165Syria 1932. 3 pages; densely typed; sent from the American Mission Latakia. At the top of the first sheet is a handwritten comment " Via Air Mail to Paris. Rec'd Phila. Feb. 10 '32 and 'copy'." Several more comments and corrections are made on the further pages; these are initialed by "F.M.W."; Dr. Findlay S. Wilson the Secretary of the Foreign Mission Board. These comments are also censorious requesting that certain bracketed information is not to be printed presumably for church or public exposure; this censorship usually has to do with reference to interactions with the Moslem community. The text deals with the death of Margaret "Miss Maggie" B. Edgar a seventy-year-old semi-retired Christian missionary in Latakia Syria considered a great tragedy for that mission community. "…There is plenty of circumstantial evidence to indicate that she was foully murdered by the man of the house where she made her last visit and near where she was last seen in the flesh. The man is known to have other blood on his soul. It is "whispered" that a woman of the family cried out as Miss Edgar entered that day: "Oh Miss Edgar why did you come now My brother will kill you." But the man roughly silenced her…" quoting from the PuritanBoard site which in turn has taken the information from Andrew James McFarland "Eight Decades in Syria" Ch. 8 Miss Edgar had been a missionary in the Middle East for decades and though less active than formerly had requested to stay and read the Bible with women of the Moslem community. The letter recounts the last 24 hours of her life in detail and as known at that time - and the subsequent frantic search for her whereabouts. Approx. 8 3/4" x 11" size on thin 'airmail' style paper; old fold lines; a little edge-wear and couple old discolorations on last sheet no loss of text; in very good condition. . Correspondence. Very Good.
