American Missionanry in Korea from GooglePr...esbyterian missionaries in Korea and the United States reacted to the so-called “Korean Conspiracy Case” in a variety of ways. In Korea, O.R. Avison, the director of the Presbyterian Severance Hospital in Seoul, Samuel A. Moffett, a Presbyterian missionary in Pyongyang, and Norman C. Whittemore, a Presbyterian missionary in Seoncheon, North Pyong-an Province, met with Terauchi on 23 January 1912. They told him that it was inconceivable that the arrested Koreans, who were among the most respected people in Korean society, should have legitimately fallen under suspicion. But Terauchi refuted their position and told them that the fact that so many Korean Christians had been involved in the plot had surprised him.- Hard to find items ( Late Choson dynasty fabric 여름 삼베옷 포함 총 여성 옷 13 점)- Total 13 items for Mr. Whittemore's wife *See my other his family's clothes in the ongoing auction.- 조선시대 복식연구에 중요한 자료 될수 있음 * Please see my other Korea related items !
