Choko Maru in mid-May, and arriving in Tientsin China.
- Notes
- Please note: language and attitudes pertaining to Asian people [especially Chinese and Japanese] used throughout is outdated offensive. Most letters are written on hotel/ship letterhead. Most letters have been numbered in red pencil in the upper margin for an unknown project. Some letters are marked with a small x in pencil, indicating where Jon Whyte made notes for use in his project "Catharine Robb Whyte, Peter Whyte: Commemorative Portfolio," originally published in 1981. 94 - 13 page 16 contains a sketch of the Fujiya Hotel in Miyanoshita Japan. 94 - 18 is not dated and has had "May 8?" written in pencil at the top - it has been scanned as its own letter, but it may be part of 94 - 17.
