http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/229668581

Collection comprises correspondence, reports, newspaper clippings, and photographs related to Methodist missionary Edith Shufeldt and her work in China, primarily in Tientsin (Tianjin) in northern China but also in Peking (Beijing), from the 1920s through the 1940s. The collection offers insights into missionary work and civil war in China during years of rule by warlords, but does not include detailed descriptions of Shufelt's career or Chinese political and cultural events. The correspondence, comprising two folders, includes an account of the bombing of Chungking (Chongqing), in 1939. The reports and newspaper clippings concern missionary activities, social conditions, politics, and agriculture in China. The collection does not document Schufeldt's activities during World War II.
