Norman Pateman, whose duties included helping Chefoo boys and girls, when they first came to Britain, in any way possible. Mr. Pateman writes of how MISS RIDGE herself took the liveliest personal interest in each one of these young Chefusians, an interest which she maintained to the end. She became a member of the Chefoo Schools Association.

She lives at 31 Silverknowes View, Edinburgh, EH4 5PL and works in the offices of the Scottish Association for Mental Health as Conference Secretary.
