My travel was far more exciting than I'd have liked. Fog canceled the last lap of my flight so in order to arrive in time for the Saturday celebrations at Alliance, I had to fly in to a small airport 50 miles away, rent a car, then drive it to Alliance in the dark and in the fog -- of course, in an unfamiliar car and on unfamiliar highways. Going home, I had to drive the 50 miles back to return the rental car. (Sigh!)

— On June 29, 11 a.m., BBC Radio 4 will rebroadcast a program it broadcast in 2011, which was called "Captured by Pirates." The pirates part was about a boatful of Chefoo School student who were captured by pirates on their way home from a holiday. This program also included a significant section about Chefoo School Girl Guides in Weihsien. I've asked Producer Beth O'Dea to forward to you for the Weihsien web site a link with this broadcast.

In August 1945 Japan surrendered to the Americans and World War Two finally came to an end. Within days, prisoners held by the Japanese in China began to be released. Among them, a young American girl, Mary Previte. She tells her story to Witness.
