Book excerpt: This book, organized and compiled by Arthur and Sadie's granddaughter Priscilla Welbon Ewy, is the sixth of the Welbon Korea mission document series, covering the years of 1909-1911. Sadie Nourse Welbon (1872-1925) was called to be a missionary to Korea in 1899. Arthur Garner Welbon (1866-1927) was called to be a missionary to Korea in 1900. In the mission field, they met and served together until 1919, when they returned home due to her illness. Although Arthur returned to the Korea mission field in 1921, Sadie could not join him and died in the States in 1925. Arthur served until his death from typhoid fever in 1928 and was buried in Yanghwajin Foreign Missionary Cemetery beside their two children. This work was possible because of the materials saved by their son, Henry G. Welbon.
