A Scot in China of Today
This will be an ongoing series of stories that will hopefully give
you a view of China from a Scottish perspective but also we hope
from a local perspective as well. This series is written by Ron Dow.
James Legge, Missionary and Scholar
Dr Legge's thirty-three years of missionary service in Malacca and
Hong Kong ended in 1870. Other work as Professor of Chinese in the
University of Oxford, was taken up by him in 1877, and continued
until his death in 1897.
