Description
Also included in the International Mission Photography Archive. Frame 3 - Governor Han Fu-chu, former governor of the Province. The Governor and members of his domestic and official entourage were familiar figures in the Hospital, coming sometimes to grace ceremonial occasions and sometimes to secure medical care. It was both cheering and embarrassing to be sent for, to attend members of the family at distant points in the province: at Tsingtao, with train and motor facilities; or at the Temple of the Thousand Buddhas, with access by mountain chair; or at the halfway house on the sacred mountain of T'ai Shan, with a microscope box dangling from the end of a coolie's pole in the rain. There were several physicians on the Governor's staff, with whom we had points of friendly contact. [now Qingdao] A portrait shot of a Chinese man with very short hair and a moustache. A medal is pinned to his chest.
