Title

Siam: Some First Impressions at Nakhon Sri Tamarat

Description

Margaret reads a letter giving her first impressions of Nakhon. She recalls the temples, the prison, and returns to their first morning in the town, spending time with all the missionaries. In many ways the area reminded the Landons of Michigan. Peggy struggled a bit to adjust to her new environment. She did quite well afterward. Margaret talks also about the missionaries who were living around the Landons.
