Hartford Theological Seminary was represented by one of its professors, the Rev. Dr. M. W. Jacobus. The Church at Summit. New Jersey, which for about twenty years had regarded Dr. Bergen as its missionary pastor, and had paid the Board his salary, was represented by the pastor, the Rev. M. C. Mot an, and by a member ‘of the session, Mr. William Henry. ,Grant. I represented our Board. Dr. Morgan conducted the services. and at Mrs. Bergen’s request, I made the address. Interment was made in the little cemetery in the village. You can imagine how tenderly we all felt. I have drawn up the following min- ute, which will be spread upon the rec- ords of the Board, and a copy of which I transmit to you herewith: “A great missionary passed to his reward in the death of the Rev. Paul I). Bergen, D.D., President 0! the Shantung Christian College, China, at Unionville. Connecticut, Sunday, Aug. 8th. Born at Bellefonmine. Ohio. July 19. 1860. and educated at Parsons Col- lege. Lake Forest University, Prince- ton and McCormick Theologiul Semi naries, he applied forjnd received up- pointment by the Presbyterian Board of Foreign Missions in June. 1883, and in September of that year he sailed for China. After thirty years-of re- markably active and efficient servxce, he returned no Ameriru in broken health and retired to a farm near Un- ionvllle, Conn. For a time his family and friends hoped that he would N- gain his health. but his physical strength had become too seriously Im- puired and afeer a gradual decline he passed nay. {mun T0 REV. PAUL 0. mm r “Dr. Bergen was I man of unusual beauty of Christian life and character Those who were most intimately as- sociated with him can think of no un- kind word that he ever spoke or any wrong act that.he ever committed. This gentleness of heart and manner was united to high intellectuul culture. He was a scholar of Wide range of thought and reading in English. and his~ knowledge of the (‘hinese language and classical literature was the mar- vel, not only of his missionary “350- ciates, but of'the Chinese themselves. for he spoke their difficult tongue with the fluency and accuracy of un educat- ed native of the country. His blame- lessness of conduct was not a nega- tive quality. He was a man of strong convictions, but he had the faculty of expressing them in such a way as .not to give needless offense. He la- bored with ability and energy, but ’with apparent ease. He had a large conception of the Gospel of ('hrist. He .believed with' all his heart in the preaching of the Word, iind for years he devoted himself to evangelistic work. superintending with apostolic ‘zeal a large number of out-station, among which he regularly itinerated. He saw, however, that if ('hina was ever to have a well i-xtalilished Church. there must be educated Chinese leaders to serve as pastors, evangelista and teachers. M» there- fore interested himself in education as well as evangelism. When the presidency of the important Shantung Christian College became vacant by the retirement of the Rev. Dr. CIlVln W. Mateer. Dr. Bergen. by the imme diate and unanimous suflrage of his associates and with the full approval 0! the Board; was elected to the presi- dency. He served in this high post with conspicuous ability and devotion until failing health compelled his re- turn to America about two years ago His presidency marked the happy (‘Im- summation d the union in higher edu- cational work in Shantung between the Presbyterian English Baptist and High Church Anglican Mission; Hie intelligence,_hin acholarship, his min- 1!
