They are years rich in the wise teachings of our holy Mother, under whose guidance fervor was continuous; years of fast growth in the number of vocations, and of further development evidenced by the opening of twelve more Houses. Trials are not wanting: death is still claiming victims among the young Sisters, yet these occasions bring to light such virtue as to leave no doubt about the supernatural richness of the primitive spirit. As in the preceding volumes, the narrative follows a year by year pattern interspersed with brief indications of the various events, which, as already explained, correspond to the marginal notes of the original manuscript. -

2. Invitation
A CONCISE HISTORY OFTHE SALESIAN KOREAN MISSION Michael Chang SDB* 1. Don Bosco arrived before the Salesians Don Bosco was a man who dreamed dreams. His dreams became reality and are still becoming reality. A lot of people think that he had a dream that is connected with the Korean province. The dream concerns the evangelization of Northeast Asia. I will now attempt to say a few words about how that dream became a reality in Korea. If we look at the historical records that we have in our possession, the first Salesian confrere to set foot on Korean soil was the "Don Bosco of the East", the Eastern Interpretation of Don Bosco's Preventive System, the Venerable, Fr. Vincenzo Cimatti. ln 1934, he went to Manchuria to give a concert. At the same time he visited Korea, giving a concert in four cities. After touring Korea, he went back to Japan and wrote an article for the Salesian Bulletin entitled "Don Bosco of Korea." It appeared in the February 3, 1939 edition of the Italian "Bolletino Salesiano". "I went to Korea to give a concert. As I was passing through that land, I saw that the faithful know Don Bosco. The articles that were written about Don Bosco in Japanese were printed in the catholic magazine <KyeongHyang Japji>. Therefore, the Koreans know about Don Bosco and some have even taken the baptismal name of Bosco' Bishop Larribeau of Seoul, who is a member of the French Foreign Mission Society, told me this. St. John Bosco has gone before us into this land". -
