Notes about Edith Amanda Carr

Mrs. Ralph B. Colson, formerly Miss Edith Carr of Schenectady, wife of the late the Rev. R. B. Colson, a Presbyterian minister formerly with the Y.M.C.A. forces, has returned from China and is the guest of her parents in that city.  Mr. Colson was, prior to his death,  August 12, 1920, in Hankow, China, assistant executive secretary of the Y.M.C.A., in which there are about 5000 Chinese members.  His father is at present in South Bend, Ind., engaged in religious indication.  Mrs. Colson's plans for the future are uncertain, at least for the time being, until she decides whether she will or not return to China.  If she does, she will take up educational or association work among the natives.
