The missionary woman said to the Korean when the Jap ran; "Why do you not report this to the Japanese police?" "It would do no good. They would give no justice to me, and I would be hounded to my death for reporting it." One evening with a friend I had been speaking in Pyeng Yang. It was midnight one Sunday and we were waiting for a train down to Seoul.
Thirteen of these years were spent in the city of Pyeng Yang which became the scene of one of the greatest revivals in all the history of the Christian church. At the time that Mr. and Mrs. So frightful were the conditions that boys in their play would often drag the corpse of a person who had died during the night through the streets the next day, unmolested.
At the funeral service of another young Korean preacher, Pak Suk Han in Pyeng Yang, hundreds of Japanese soldiers appeared with drawn bayonets just to terrorize the people. The church was full of Japanese officers with drawn swords. "What would have happened if somebody in a fit of patriotism had shouted 'Mansei'?" I asked. "We would have been killed instantly!" said the missionary soberly.
Those who disregard the orders of the Provisional Government will be regarded as enemies of the State. The National Council issued a statement of its aims and purpose: April 22 1919. We, the people of Korea, represented by thirty-three men, including Son Pyeng Heui, have already made the Declaration of Independence of Korea, found on the principle of righteousness and humanity.
They know what it means to die for their Faith. The story of Pak Suk Han is one of the most thrilling illustrations of Faith that I have ever heard in Oriental lands. He had been a Christian since he was seven years of age. He was a brilliant speaker and the Assistant Pastor of the First Methodist Church at Pyeng Yang, where, even the non-Christians loved him.
