Biographical notes:

Christian Palmer Althaus (1881-196-?); Presbyterian missionary to Hunan Mission, Presbyterian Church in the U.S.A., with his wife Laura Wilson Althaus; appointed 1911 as a teacher at the John D. Wells School for boys (called I-Chi by those who attended) in Siangtan; later became the principal of the school from 1913 to 1927. During 1927, however, political upheaval and health conditions in China forced the Althauses to be furloughed, and they resigned from missionary service in March 1928. After returning to the United States, Christian Palmer Althaus became the Editor for The Bethel Journal in Bethel, Ohio. He died sometime after 1964. His wife survived him until at least 1971.
