Gan Yr Athro E. Ernest Hughes

(A Welsh Interlude: Current Topics in Wales)
A Review in Welsh by Professor E. Ernest Hughes

This month is the centenary of the birth of Dr. Griffith John, who spent nearly sixty years in China as a missionary. His work compares with that of Livingstone or Grenfell, for, in addition to founding the Anglo-Chinese University, at Hankow, he also founded the biggest hospital in China, a large sanatorium and a home for lepers. Dr. John was the first to translate the Bible into Chinese. Sunday, December 13, will be devoted to his memory in all the Congregational churches of Wales, and in this talk Professor Ernest Hughes will make special reference to the life of the great Welshman.
