TIME
Modern missionaries lead safe lives; the years are long past when cannibals ate them. But at the Africa Inland Mission Station in Kijabe is a little dwelling some 300 yards from the rest of the buildings. Hulda Stumpf, Secretary to the Head Missionary, lived there alone. She was 63, had been in Kijabe for 20 years. She had grown deaf in the Lord’s service. Last week her body was found, attacked, bruised, smothered to death.
