The Salvation Army’s work in Hong Kong began in 1930. Its aim was to provide social services and to spread the Gospel through mission.
Dorothy Brazier was a tailoress by profession and a member of the Salvation Army who rose to the rank of Major.
In 1934 she came to Hong Kong to take charge of a home for girls in Embankment Road. She was allowed to remain uninterned during the Japanese occupation and looked after about 80 girls.
She was repatriated to Britain at the end of the war. She wanted to return to Hong Kong but was forbidden to do so because of her poor health.
Hi there,
I am uncertain which YMCA was Booth talking about in this chapter, but other than the one in Tsimshatsui, there was this old YMCA house at this location. It was an old manor house with fences, arches and a dome if I'm not mistaken. But it was gone after the rebuilt about two decades ago.
