		Anyway: 4818 N. Broad Street, Philadelphia, PA 19141 This foundation published Jaisohn, the First Korean- American: A Forgotten Hero>, by Channing Liem (Im Ch'annyOng) in 1984.
		This biography takes a rather worshipful and hagiographical approach to SO Chaep'il's life, but does quote a lot of his letters, etc. I got a copy of it from the above address around 1992.
