| 10 Oct 1943, Chronology of Events Related to Stanley Civilian Internment Camp Posted: 17 Jan 2015 02:33 AM PST Book / Document: Date(s) of events described: Sun, 10 Oct 1943 The London Daily Express returns to its slogan 'Remember Hong Kong' for an article on page 13 that, citing a New York report of two days ago, gives a brief account of the experiences during the hostilities of Bishop Cuthbert O'Gara. The Bishop saw surrendered British officers and men bayonetted during the hostilities ((December 25, 1941)) and he and his 32 fellow Maryknoll missionaries believed they were next, but were saved at the last minute by the sudden departure of the Japanese soldiers after a message on a field radio. They were imprisoned in a graage instead. The Bishop is currently the Vicar Apostolic at the Yuanling Mission in China's Hunan Province. |
