AMONG the monuments in the cemetery at Newton, Mass., many may be more imposing but few more impressive than the stone recently erected to the memory of Miss Corinna Shattuck. Its simple inscription tells the story: CORINNA SHATTUCK April 21, 1848. May 22, 1910. ERECTED In loving memory by the Oorfa Armenians. The original Armenian text from which the English form was translated is reproduced herewith.* The sum of £T. 25, or $110, was provided by these humble people of Oorfa in the heart of Turkey, that they might give lasting expression of their in debtedness and love to their faithful missionary.
