GLENN WISHARD AND FAMILY RETURNING TO INDIA

Mrs. Jennie Wishard has received a letter from her son Glenn, mailed at Honolulu. He says: “I must write a letter today to be mailed tomorrow in Honolulu. We are due to arrive there early in the morning and to leave at sunset. We shall go ashore for the day. With the exception of last Thursday we have had a delightful voyage so far. It began to get rough Wednesday evening. Of com»e I got seasick so did Lena. By Friday morning the sea was quiet again and we all felt better. Yesterday was about the finest day I can remember of experiencing at sea. It was calm with a warm, gentle breeze blowing. If we can only hfve such weather all the way it will be a much more pleasant journey than I had expected. The boat is crowded. There are many missionaries on board and five Y. M. C. A. secretaries and their families. I think I Shall begin some serious study after leaving Honolula if I can find time and feel so well. I shall write again when we reach Japan.” Mr. Wishard has been engaged in missionary work in India for some years and he and his family are returning there after a visit in this country.
