WHEN it was learned last winter that the health of our faithful medical missionaries in Palestine was failing, the German Union offered one of its nurses, graduated at Friedensau, J. G. Teschner. He willingly accepted the call, reaching Joppa the first of January. After doing successful work there, he was called, in March, to take charge of the Jerusalem health home, and the Lord blessed his labor there. Even as late as June 30 he wrote: “Thus far we are all well, although many die from fever at present.” July 26 he was stricken down, and within forty-eight hours succumbed. He was only thirty years old, and very strong physically. He now rests from his arduous labors, in the German cemetery on Zions Hill, and soon the brightest hope of his life will be realized — meeting his blessed Lord.
