Belle Sparr Luckett Manuscript Collection

This collection includes 22 lengthy letters written in 1913 by Letitia Belle Sparr Luckett. These describe her first year in Korea as a missionary and school teacher at the Pyongyang Foreign School. Each letter is written on a special Asian paper, several yards in length. Because of the difficulty involved in reading such letters, a photocopy of each has been filed with the originals in the collection. The collection also contains several photographs, a set of Bible-verse illustration cards in Korean, a dinner invitation to the Japanese Governor's home, farewell letters to Mrs. Luckett from 1916, and several other significant items.
