Two indomitable adults and
three ,of their children arrived in
Toronto last weelc, 'worn and
weary after six months' traVel,
• from China. Escaping from the
Japanese, taking to lifeboats and
rafts from a burning vessel, tra-
• velling nearly 20,000 miles, being
shuttled from pillar to post they
were released by United States
authoritieS after being held for
day and a , half less than 200
from their destination.
• The ,five are: Rev. W. 1. Mit-
Chen, •United Church rri•issionary,
sbn Of Rev. and Mrs. R. A. Mft-
chell, Roselawn Ave.; his wife,
Dr. Helen Craw Mitchell. •and
their three Children, Mary Eve-
• lyn, 10; Margaret, 8,.'and Peter,
5. •Another child, Bobbie, has
been out of China for• some years
and is at school in Brantford,
where Peter •yesterday for the
first time met his "big' brother".
• It :sounds "story -bookish", but
here, briefly, is the • Mitchell
odyssey. They left Chengtu for
Canada June .8 and flew 1,800
miles to Calcutta. There; a sym-
pathetic . consul gave .them what
• they and he believed o be all
the necessary, documents, for :the
Mitchells had planned to come
home through Canada.
They went .y s ip to ustralia,
•the ship,eaught fire and for some
hours they were in lifeboats and
rafts before they returned to the
vessel. Eventually, they arrived
in San Fransisco and made the
long trek across the United
,States.
• When they .arrived at Port
Huron, Mich.,however, the Con-
sular error caught up with them
and it was found they •had no
"exit. - visa" from' the United
States. They were,. detained at
a Port Huron Hoter while mem-
bers of the Ministerial Associa-
tion of that city, Ross W. Gray,
M.P., Sarnia, and others "pulled
strings". _....
They were finally released af:-
• ter a wait that, "seemed • like
months and .months", according
to Mr. Mitchell. '`It was heart-
breaking—so close to our Own
soil after such' a long journey",
he said.
The little group was met at
Sunnyside by Mr. Mitchell's
father, Rev. R. A. Mitchell, who
himself had served for 42 years
in the. China field.
Mr. Mitchell said the Japanese
had commenced an . anti-British
campaign in 1939, parades and
demonstrations, being organized.
The family finally was ordered
to leave Chlina, and meanwhile
the Japanese had burned the
gates of the compound surround-
ing their home. One night, after
they had, moved from •their reg-
ular home, the Japanese tossed
hand grenades into the building:
They escaped from Japanese-.
overrun territory to Free Chirra,
'II
and atterD' r. Mitchell had car-
ried on medical work for some
tiine finally managed tci get
started ,,;for Calcutta on the first
stage of their journey home.
