Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Reminiscences of Medical Missionary Work This volume has a double purpose. It is intended to keep in memory a remarkable man whose life and labours contributed to a fuller and truer view of what is implied in the words "preaching the Gospel." It is intended, further, to make good the hiatus which would otherwise exist in the story of the development of Medical Missions. Burns Thomson was a Medical Missionary. He counted it his highest earthly honour to be able in all public documents to put the words "Medical Missionary" after his name. To him the title was full of holy meaning. It was nothing less than the modern expression of the missionary method of our Lord and His Apostles. And his glorying in the name was the glorying of a man who had proved in his own experience that the Lord approves to-day the method according to which He Himself, while on earth, delighted to present the message of Eternal Life.
