A freemason?[edit]

CompletedWhen compiling the Booth-Tucker bibliography I saw that he wrote Freeman of Shanghai] (1922 or 1928). This is not evidence in itself that Booth-Tucker was a freemason. Someone could review the book to verify this. If it's confirmed that he was a freemason then we can add him to the List of Freemasons article. The OCLC records are:

11072293 (1928?): St. Paul, MN; Chicago, IL; Evanston, IL; Atlanta, GA; Winston-Salem, NC; New Haven, CT
250359440 (1928): Berlin, Germany
34607726 (1922?) with the title Freemen of Shanghai: New York, NY

I found the book on Google Books at vfwOAAAAQAAJ. It turns out this book is about Mr. and Mrs. Albert Freeman. I don't know if Google includes 100% of the words in its index but at least in the parts I could search the book does not mention mason, masonry, freemason, nor freemasonry. --Marc Kupper|talk 02:04, 25 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Work amongs criminal tribes[edit]

The criminal tribes are only mentioned in a single sentence. I think it is an important point and also discussed in scholarshipt due to the question of missionary involvement with the ICS. The indian salvation army started in oppossition to and oppressed by the colonial officials in 1882 and started collaborating wiht them in 1908. I would like to add something about the cirminal tribes work to this article, using this literature:
