OP 


New York City May 26, 1903 Arthur Judson Brown 


Dr. W.O. Johnson 
Taiku, Korea 


My dear Dr. Johnson: 


As | am now conducting the correspondence with Korea, Dr. Ellinwood has referred to 
me your letter of April 8". | appreciate the delicacies of the situation to which you refer and | 
earnestly hope with you that all the embarrassments incident to that case have been forever 


buried 


| am very sorry to learn that Mr. Bruen returned from a recent trip with an attack of 
fever. Will you kindly remember me to him and tell him that | have been praying for his speedy 
recovery. | pleasantly remember my meeting with him in New York before he went to the field 


| am deeply interested in your hospital. When it is finished, | hope you will write me 
some account of it that | can have published. 


The General Assembly is now in session, but as it is three thousand miles away in Los 


Angeles, we hear very little about it. The telegrams in the daily papers are quite meager. We 
shall have to wait until letters can come from the Board's representatives, Dr. Halsey and Mr 


Hand. 


With cordial remembrances to Mrs. Johnson and to your associates at the station, | am, 


Very sincerely yours, 


(signature too light to read but certainly) A.J. Brown 


(from microfilm reel #283, Vol. 242, #129) 


New York City July 24, 1903 Arthur Judson Brown 


Dr. W.O. Johnson 
Taiku, Korea 


My dear Dr. Johnson:- 


| had just written to you when | received your letter of June 13" to Dr. Ellinwood. | shall 
show him your very kind reference to him. | am sure that it will gratify him. 


The matter of the additional appropriation for which you ask properly belongs in my 
department as it is the duty of the secretary to see that requests for appropriations are brought 
to the Board. But as your letter arrives just as | am leaving the city for an absence of several 
weeks, and as | find that you have written on the same subject to our Treasurer, Mr. Hand, | 
have arranged with him to handle the matter and to communicate directly with you 


| have read with deep sympathy your account of your ill health. | do not wonder that 
you are suffering for you had a terrible illness and you have been under a heavy strain since 


The Board does not like to authorize returns on account of ill health prior to its 
knowledge of official action by the Mission or the certificates of the physicians involved. You 
will find the whole method of procedure stated on the enclosed medical certificate for a 
missionary on the field. Please see that all the blanks are filled out. You will note that the 
Board gives the Mission ample power to act in such circumstances and if necessary to send a 
missionary home without waiting to hear from the Board 


| shall think of you with special prayer, my dear brother, and when you come home we 
shall be very glad to welcome you 


Affectionately yours, 


(signature too light to read, but surely) A.J. Brown
