Traveler of the Month (Continued from page 61) daughter of a dancing girl forgot the intrigues of the palace and learned to be happy. Then, on the same sort of night that had hidden their flight to the farm, Grace's brother slipped out into the jungle. Grace told me that he had never forgotten his Mohammedan training, and that he made his way back to Bhopal. Soon after that, there were reports that Grace's brother, with family pride at stake, was organizing a force to return to the Himalayas, seize Grace and take her to Bhopal. No chances were taken, and Grace was sent to America. Shortly after that, the Strong family also came to America, to buy machinery that was needed for the farm. The Strongs met Grace in New York and took her with them to their old home at Atlantic, Iowa. The Strongs told me that they had "no salary, or means of our own." Just how they were going to buy all the expensive farm machinery was a mystery — that is, until all of the good people back in Atlantic heard their story. Stocking that distant, mountain farm became a community project, and every last piece of needed equipment was bought. "Just how are you going to get all of that equipment back to your farm?" I asked. "Well," said Mrs. Strong, "we'll go right with it — can't afford to lose it — on the boat to Bombay. Once there, instead of taking a chance on the Indian railroads, we'll load the family and camp equipment in a camp trailer, hook the trailer and our new threshing machine on back of our new tractor — and drive 1,000 miles to our farm." I looked past our ABC microphone at the Strongs, at their three blond youngsters, three, four and seven years old, at slim, reserved Grace. I tried to imagine this troupe of pioneers churning their way through 1,000 miles of bad roads, no roads, and jungle, with a patch of land, just reclaimed from the tigers, as their destination. These indeed were travelers whom I was proud to welcome, and honored to meet. "I'd like to ask you, Grace," I said, "if you have any plans for the future." "Yes," she replied, with a proud smile aimed at the Strongs. "Yes, I plan to be a missionary myself, and work with other children." I'm sure I was speaking for millions of Americans when I wished Grace Godspeed, and said we'd never forget her.
