China recollections, 1950-1997.

The collection consists of 151 sketches which originally appeared in the News-Herald, a weekly newspaper in Owen County, Kentucky. The sketches are entitled, "China Recollections" and are written not as history or biography, but rather Morgan's interpretation of the realities of life in the North China Mission during the first quarter of the 20th century. The sketches were originally in the form of newspaper clippings and carbon copies. This material were transcribed to their current format by Carter Morgan, the son of Edgar and Lelah Morgan. The articles relate stories of mission activities, events, and in particular, people. The stories cover their time at Southern Seminary to the end of their mission activities in 1927.
