[SOONG MAY-LING]: (1898-2003) Madame Chiang Kai-shek. First Lady of the Republic of China 1948-75. T.L.S., Mayling Soong Chiang, in facsimile, two pages, 4to, Hankow, Hupeh, 26th September 1938, to ‘1917 and other Wellesley Friends’, on the printed stationery of the Headquarters of the Generalissimo. Madame Chiang states that she is sending her correspondents a book (no longer present) which has just come off the press and is ‘a souvenir and record of what has happened in China this past year’, continuing, in part, ‘Most of the articles were composed under great pressure….and therefore they are not well written. The Publicity Department edited and printed this edition without my knowledge…..I did not see this book until after it was printed. I did, however, choose the cover – and as it was then about Reunion I chose our class colour – cornflower blue. The autographed copies I am sending you are of interest because some of the imperfections are due to the unusual difficulties we are undergoing in Hankow owing to war conditions. At this writing the Japanese army is only 100 miles from Hankow, but we are still here and shall remain, even if doing so means hanging on by the skin of our teeth. We are making the enemy pay dearly for every inch of our territory they are scorching……For the honor of the Wellesley English Department, however, I must disclaim authorship of the article entitled “Upbringing of Children of Revolutionary Martyrs”……One of my friends just yesterday called my attention to it by remarking that “it smacks of chop-suey, flavored with Maggi sauce, and cooked by a Main Street bride from a random recipe given her by a tourist cousin.” When I read it I felt that she was quite justified in making such a caustic comment, although I myself could not burst out laughing at some of the purple patches. Please laugh with me……Let me thank you for helping the war orphans now christened “Warphans”. Some very light, extremely minor age wear, VG The present letter is dated during the Second Sino-Japanese War 1937-45.
