Bailey - CartlandI was contacted by a collector of ship postcards, and he sent me one written by Arthur Cartland Bailey's wife Bess when he was teaching in Thailand. Aunt Bess was enroute from Kobe, Japan to Shanghai, China in 1930. A previous trip was made earlier with 2 children. In 1927, the SS President McKinley traveled from Manila (June 25, 1927) to Hong Kong (June 29), Shanghai (July 2), Kobe (July 5), Yokohama (July 7), and Victoria BC and Seattle arriving July 18, 1927.
