Correspondence
Except for a constitution of the Andhra Lutheran Conference, the records consist of correspondence between the executives of the Board of Foreign Missions (C.V. Sheatsley, Richard Taeuber, and Theodore P. Fricke) and the secretaries and treasurers of the Andhra Lutheran Conference (called India Conference until 1948).
Reports
The records consist of annual reports made by Executive Secretary C.V. Sheatsley and reports from the field. The latter are labeled Station Reports, but they also include reports from institutions such as schools and the Katharine Lehmann Hospital. They are arranged chronologically. The records were collected by Sheatsley.
Murderous Acts
While the Midwest may be known for salt-of-the-earth folks, it's also home to murder and mayhem. In Murderous Acts: 100 Years of Crime in the Midwest, Keven McQueen explores a century of true crimes committed in 10 Midwestern states, from the 1840s to the 1940s. With a touch of gallows humor, McQueen relies on original research to recount infamous transgressions—including Michigan's Robert Irving Latimer case, the serial murders of Nebraskan Jake Bird, and the bloody deeds of Kansas's Bender family—as well as gruesome tales that are less well known, such as the Wisconsin man with a penchant for swinging an axe at the necks of men he didn't care for, the Hoosier who killed his sweetheart in the midst of a Halloween ball, and the French nobleman who wreaked havoc in a St. Louis hotel. Murderous Acts will intrigue and delight fans of true crime and will send a shiver down the spine of any reader fascinated by the dark history of America's Heartland.
Minutes
The records consist of the minutes of the India Conference from the time of its formation in 1920 until 1973. Also included are cover letters and correspondence related to the minutes. The correspondence is from the officers of the India Conference to the administrators of the home boards. These administrators include JSO BFM Secretary J.H. Schneider; ALC Executive Secretary of the India Section of the BFM C.V. Sheatsley; ALC Executive Secretary of the BFM Richard C. Taeuber; TALC Executive Director of the Division of World Missions Theodore P. Fricke; and TALC Associate Secretary Lester A. Dahlen. The files are arranged chronologically, and those from 1920-1935 are bound.
