8. REGINALD HEBER. 1783-1826. Became a preacher in 1822, was consecrated bishop of Calcutta in 1823. He labored with great zeal in India for three years. Among his hymns which will never grow old are "From Greenland's Icy Mountains" and "Holy, Holy, Holy, Lord God Almighty."
9. ADONIRAM JUDSON. 1788-1850. Native of Massachusetts. A most devoted man from his youth, one of the first missionaries sent by the American Board, but afterward became a Baptist, and was the pioneer missionary in Burma. He and his wife suffered fearful hardships in the years 1824-26, during the war between England and Burma. Translated the Bible in Burmese. Efforts at first seemed fruitless, but in 1838 there were said to be a thousand converts from heathendom formed into churches.
10. ANN HASSELTINE JUDSON. 1789-1826. Adoniram Judson's first wife. Native of Massachusetts. One of the noble army of women who have given their lives for missions. Never physically strong, she labored almost incessantly. While her husband was in prison, she was called to share his sufferings, following him from prison to prison, ministering to his wants, continuing this for a year and a half, walking miles in feeble health in the darkness of night or under the noonday sun, much of the time with a babe in her arms.
11. ROBERT MOFFAT. 1795-1883. Native of Scotland. His mother saturated him while young with a knowledge of the Bible and stories of the early Moravian brethren. Offered himself to the London Missionary Society for a missionary, and was accepted, sailing for South Africa at the age of 21. His chief service lay in the region of Bechuanaland, the Orange River country. Most noted of his achievements was the translation of the entire Bible into Bechuana.
12. JOHN SCUDDER, M.D. 1793-1855. Native of New Jersey. Was led by a tract to give his life to missionary work, and sailed in 1819 to Ceylon under the American Board. In 1836 was transferred to Madras, where he founded a new mission with Dr. Winslow.
13. DAVID LIVINGSTONE. 1813-1873. Noted African explorer and missionary. Native of Scotland; died in the "Dark Continent," on his knees. At 19 he resolved to be a medical missionary, and was called in 1838 by the London Missionary Society. His faithful men, after embalming his body, carried it a year's journey to the coast at Zanzibar, one of the most heroic journeys ever undertaken.
14. JOHN C. PATTESON. 1827-1871. Missionary martyr of Melanesia. Native of England, son of Sir John Patteson, the distinguished English judge, his mother a niece of Samuel Coleridge the poet. He made many voyages in the missionary ship "Southern Cross." He was killed, evidently by mistake, on a voyage to Nukapu Island.
