EDITORS COMMENTS
"This striking photograph captures the moment of crisis as American Congregationalist missionaries Miss Ellen Maria Stone and her pregnant fellow missionary friend Katerina Stefanova Tsilka were kidnapped on September 3, 1901, in the Ottoman Balkans. The women were taken by a detachment of the Internal Macedonian-Adrianople Revolutionary Organization (IMARO), led by the voivoda Yane Sandanski, and the sub-voivodas Hristo Chernopeev and Krastyo Asenov. The rebels demanded a ransom of $110,000 for their release, seeking independence from the Ottoman Empire. The kidnapping of Miss Stone and Katerina became a major international news story and was widely covered by the media at the time. It has since been referred to as 'America's first modern hostage crisis.' The captors initially refused to accept a reduced ransom, but eventually agreed to its payment in February 1902. The women were released and returned safely to their communities. The photograph offers a glimpse into a pivotal moment in history, as the Balkan region grappled with political upheaval and the desire for self-determination. The image serves as a poignant reminder of the human cost of conflict and the lengths to which individuals and groups will go to achieve their goals."
