THE REPORTED MASSACRE IN FUKIEN — SAFETY OF THE MISSING MISSIONARIES

20th June.

TueRe will be joy in Shanghai this morning at the news, which reached us too late last night for us to cireu-Jate it, that Mr. and Mrs. Phillips and Miss Sears are safe. What sufferings they have gone through, how they managed to evade their persceutors, we shall learn by and bye; meanwhile we rejoice to know that the report that they had fallen victims to Chinese savagery was not founded in fact. We heartily congratulate them and all their colleagues on their happy escape.
