Thank you so much for the info in Der-Ling. I have been searching for a long time for any articles relating to her later life as Mrs. Thaddeus C. White, and your reply was the best I have had so far. It saddend me to find out how she died, for silly as it sounds, I have read all her books and in a strange way she was always alive for me.

Would you be so kind as to let me know where on the web I can find those particulars that you found? This has always been sort of my own private research as her bboks and life opened a door into Chinese history not seen from a Westerners' point of view, and I was always fascinated by the life of the Ching court in the last years of the dynasty.

Sincerely,

Jerry D. Reynolds, Jr.
