GCC1909, p. 124 __________________________________ TWO HUNDRED AND TWENTY-SIXTH MEETING GENERAL CONFERENCE COMMITTEE January 6, 1908 K0REA A letter was read from James E Schultz, superintendent of the work In Korea, urging that a fund be provided in the spring for the purchase of land surrounding the school property recently secured at Won-har-e, so that the young men coming in for school training may have opportunity to support themselves by working the land. With the Japanese occupation, the price of land is rising, and he felt that immediate steps should be taken. VOTED, That we approve of the general plan outlined by Brother Shultz for securing land for the Korean school, and that we refer the matter to the quorum of the Committee which will soon be gathered on the Pacific Coast. http://www.adventistarchives.org/docs/GCC/GCC1908/index.djvu?djvuopts&page=3 __________________________________ Seventy-seventh Meeting General Conference Committee November 30, 1909 PRESENT: A. G. Daniells, G. A. Irwin, I. H. Evans, G. B. Thompson, M. E. Kern, K. C. Russell, F. Griggs. Also W. A. Hennig. … W. R. Smith, KOREA: In view of information from Korea, the following action was taken:-- VOTED, That the secretary of the Committee be instructed to write Brother W. R. Smith of Korea, expressing our earnest desire that he may make a successful warm-hearted missionary in Korea, winning souls to the Lord; and urging him, in view of former experiences, to assume a different and more considerate attitude toward the Koreans and his own fellow workers, overcoming what we believe to be a weakness in his work that has caused us much perplexity; and counseling him that the Committee feel that this change must be apparent in the new work and relations, else it would be inconsistent for the General Committee to continue his services in that field, the local Korean committee in that case, being authorized to provide transportation to America. http://www.adventistarchives.org/docs/GCC/GCC1909/index.djvu?djvuopts&page=190 __________________________________ One hundred and thirty-second meeting General Conference Committee April 27, 1910 PRIVATE SUPPORT: A friend in Kansas, not a Sabbath-keeper, and his wife, who is a member, having offered to pay the transportation of a missionary couple to Africa and the Orient, and support them for a year or two, it was – VOTED, That we suggest to these friends of missions the names of Howard Lee, of Korea, and E.
