[Martyrs of Soochow. 1950-1951]

"Letters of postulation 1950 (Cover letters from bishops—addressed to Ignatius Kiong, Bishop of Shanghai)," i.e., Gong Pinmei 龔品梅, 1901-2000. The collection also contains copies (?) of letters sent by Kiong.

Typescript and manuscript letters in French and Latin.

The letters concern "les quatre glorieuses victimes [qui] ont donné leur vie en haine de la foi au XVIIième [sic] siècle en ce territoire de Soochow...ce sont deux missionnaires de la Compagnie de Jésus, un portugais, P. Antoine Henriques ; un italien, P. François de Attimis [?] et deux catéchistes chinois, Joseph T'ang et Philippe Wang, morts tous les quatre en 1748." (Kiong to Fumasoni-Bionchi [?], March 12, 1951). The canonization of these four, Kiong argues in the letter, would strengthen the resolve of Chinese Catholics in the face of the "graves épreuves qui sont maintenant les nôtres."
