About this book
An Ohio woman in the Philippines is a book by Emily Bronson Conger, published with illustrations in 1904. The title page promises personal experiences and descriptions, including incidents of Honolulu, ports in Japan and China. The index lists chapters named Out of the Golden Gate, First Glimpses of Japan and Hong Kong to Manila, among others.
The text describes rites performed every time a steamer passes, meant to keep the Devils away from the souls of the shipwrecked Chinese. The text tells of a survivor who, bleeding and almost lifeless, crawled back to the American quarters and told his story. The text says there are three American newspapers in Manila and one American library.
