A photograph of Brother Albert Stabuli conducting a class of boys at the St. Louis Industrial school. Some of the items the students have made are a frame and a candlestick. Born in Switzerland, Brother Albert entered Maryknoll in 1917 and was assigned to China in 1921. He took up his long mission career in Kongmoon and later in Hong Kong at the St. Louis School. He returned to Kongmoon in 1947. In 1950 he was arrested by the Communists, put on public trial and released three months later in Pakkai. In 1951 he was put on trial again and his compound was confiscated. Many of the buildings he erected throughout the China missions are monuments to his talents. In 1954, Br. Albert left Mainland China for Formosa.
