 The old out-patient block, adjoining the doctor's, has been transformed into what it is hoped will be a pleasant small home for two nurses, when such can be obtained, and the out-patient entrance is now at the farthest corner of the hospital, a great improvement to comfort.
 The whole building is a very substantial and well-built one, forming three sides of a square, and containing an operating theatre with two small rooms attached for washing and sterilising, two large wards holding ten or twelve beds each with comfort, and capable of squeezing to perhaps thirty or more in all at need, two small rooms for Europeans, a room for the nurse when on duty, a small kitchen, bath-room, laboratory, dispensary, large surgery, and two waiting rooms,
 In addition to this rebuilding and alteration, steps have been taken to enclose the whole compound, and a good deal of ground has been gained for future use, store sheds and the like, by levelling an unused slope. A good wall has been built along one side, shutting off the view of the wards and theatre which could before be obtained from the road, and which caused much discomfort to the out-patient work during the summer; and as soon as the spring comes the rest of this wall will be undertaken, so that it will be possible to exercise some supervision over servants and hospital boys-a most necessary thing in a country like this.
 Shortly after our arrival we opened what there was of the hospital, the old out-patient department, and worked there until in October, the new one was ready to enter, after which the former was taken in hand with the alterations. By this means continuous work was made possible in spite of the building and even an occasional in-patient was possible, accommodated on the floor of the waiting-room. For a short time after moving the new waiting-rooms were used in the same way, but on November 1 this came to an end, and five patients were duly installed in the new ward.
 From the first the numbers steadily increased, until during the summer nearly fifty patients were treated every day except Sundays. This was only made possible by the fact that during the hot weather it was found more possible to do medical work than language study, and the latter was accordingly dropped. Since beginning to study again in September it has been necessary to limit the number of patients, and now with in-patients, who take up more time, only a little over twenty, or thirty at times, are seen daily.
 Of course all the medical work has to be done through an interpreter, and this takes much longer than it would to treat the same number of English-speaking patients, but fortunately the hospital boys, who have been long with Dr. Baldock, know their work and a modicum of English.
 We have had a few major operations, though of course in our half-ready state only absolutely essential ones have been done, and these have been largely rendered possible by the welcome assistance of naval surgeons, three of whom have during the summer kindly lent help and advice during the time their ships have been at Chemulpó,
-This is of course very inadequate, but it has at any rate served to keep before the people that this hospital is the product of the doctrine and that the doctor is a missionary.
+<span style="color:red">Owing to there being none in the Mission staff at Chemulpó with sufficient knowledge of Corean, during Mr. Bridle's furlough, very little has been done of an evangelistic nature. When the out-patients began to be numerous an English-speaking Corean gave a kind of short sermon in the course of the morning, and more recently prayers and a short passage from the New Testament have been read before beginning the day's work. Since the ward has been opened we have also had evening prayers there. The prayers used are short, simple ones, written for the hospital work.</span>
 For the last few weeks a little more real work has been done by the Corean Bible-woman who used to work in Chemulpó. She has been in Seoul, but a house has now been obtained adjoining the hospital where she lives, and she spends a large part of every morning reading and teaching in the female waiting-room, and, when she finds it possible, follows up by visits the work thus begun. It is pleasing to be able to say that her efforts have been rewarded by two women expressing a desire to learn the doctrine.
-Now that Mr. Bridle has returned we hope not only that he may be able to do some work himself among the patients, but that he may possibly find a catechist who will be able to teach more freely among the waiting men and the in-patients.
+<span style="color:blue">This is of course very inadequate, but it has at any rate served to keep before the people that this hospital is the product of the doctrine and that the doctor is a missionary.</span>
 The men usually listen very attentively to the reading, and the women seem to enjoy the Bible-woman's words, which is much to be thankful for, even if they do not fully understand, or care to follow.
-So much for the past. The future is full of promise. The medical work is only limited by time and skill, and ought to become increasingly efficient as language improves. We hope also in a few months to be reinforced by a dispenser, who will do much to make more work possible by taking entire charge of the drugs, and may be able to effect considerable economies by preparing drugs from the crude materials. If, as is hoped, she is accompanied or followed by a nurse, the hospital will be in a position to advance rapidly.
+There are still some internal fittings to be done, and sheds, &c., to be erected, and we hope in time to acquire more Corean houses adjoining the hospital, and use them as infectious wards and the like. The religious part of the work ought soon to be extensive, and indeed, as has been shown, it is already only limited by our powers, not by our opportunities. <span style="color:blue">The hospital in itself stands as an example and object lesson of the teaching and love of Christ, and when all who come to it can hear His Gospel plainly and fully put before them results must follow. One of our first in-patients was a man who had spent six months in begging his way 200 miles to have his foot cut off, and went off at last apparently much pleased with the result.</span>
 The hospital has also been able to do something for our own people already, as we have for a long time had as an in-patient a penniless American, who drifted here on the point of death and who is now nearly fit to leave and work for his living.
-I cannot close this without a reference to the great loss we have suffered in the death of Peter, the most senior of the old hospital boys and the only Christian as yet among them. He was ill for some time, and at last died at his brother's house in Seoul, being too ill to get back to the hospital. A quiet and very slow man in all he did, he was one of those gentle characters which grow upon all who know them. His influence among all his friends was very great, and is a serious loss to the Mission. There are not many Coreans of whom it can be said "He will do it certainly," but Peter was one ; and we miss, too,

To-day his Lordship has gone to Chemulpó, so I seize this opportunity of saying a few things behind his back.

This is a solace also to us who remain, and should be a cause of thanksgiving to you who give us of your prayers and your alms.

Yesterday the MSS. were sent by courier to the Mission Press in Kangwha.
 Though we live together in this Mission-house (formerly the abode of Dr. and Mrs. Baldock), the Bishop always sleeps in his little thatched cottage next door. It is a small Corean house, where he sleeps on the mud floor with a timber and brushwood fire underneath. The Bishop is devoted to this "Palace," and has lived in it for many years.
 Though unwell early in January, the Bishop is in quite good health now, and a cheery and delightful messmate, as many a sailor can testify. His memory of innumerable friends in all parts of the world and his intense affection for sailors and children, his passionate love of music-above all, his earnest reverence for holy things and the quiet secrecy of his spiritual life-are only some out of the many beautiful lines of his unselfish character which make our father in God the most lovable of men.
 God grant him time and opportunity for further service in His kingdom, and-at the last-the crown laid up!
 Yours sincerely in our Lord,

 "MY DEAR BISHOP,
 "In welcoming you to Japan, on your road to Corea, I am glad of the opportunity to report a visit which I have made to Fusan, leaving here on March 29 and returning on April 4. It was only suddenly that I found myself able to go, so the Christians were not able to make any preparations for my visit, but perhaps I saw them more naturally in consequence.
 "On the Thursday night I went calling with Hayashi, and he took me to the postmaster, who seems to have been inquiring very steadily for some time, but he has been persuaded by a Methodist preacher that, as our church has no pastor, he had better join one which has, and he did not come to service as Hayashi had anticipated. Hayashi took me calling again on Friday, and I was surprised at the number of houses he took me to. Generally in small country stations in Japan there are two or three well-to-do members of the Christian community, with the rest, most of them, poor, but in Fusan there must be nine or ten separate well-to-do shops or offices owned by Church Christians. This points to the good standing of our people, and also implies that, unlike the official class, they are not very likely to move away. On Friday night there was a farewell prayer meeting for a young man who is starting business in Seoul, by name Yamaguchi. I gave him an official letter to take to the Mission-house in Seoul. On Saturday evening we had a preparatory service for the Holy Communion, which was well attended, when I admitted as catechumens the Yamaguchi I have mentioned, and also a woman who is practising as a doctor in Fusan. On Sunday morning I was glad to administer the Holy Communion to fourteen persons, two of them after the service. It was irregular, but on the Saturday I had heard a man regretting that all his family could not receive on this rare occasion, and so I said I would either have an earlier service or reserve until he could go home and send his wife in her turn, but eventually I took the Blessed Sacrament after church to the bedside of a woman who was too sick to come out, and this man came to her house to receive. There are four candidates for confirmation not quite ready.
-“The Presbyterians have a native minister, and are doing well. The Methodists are to have a minister shortly, and our people are very distressed at not having a pastor of their own, but at present, even in their less organised condition, they are by far the strongest Christian community. Mr. Hayashi tells me that he has written to the Synod of the Japanese Church, begging it to take pity on their desolate condition.

 "This, I think, was presumptuous and premature on his part, and I told him that you would be ready to help them financially, but that, of course, you could not conjure up a Japanese worker, though you would be most glad if they could persuade a fitting person to come. Probably a good man would require at least ₤6 a month if he were a priest. Land is rising enormously in value, and I fear the figures given you last September would be unreliable now.

 DEAR FRIENDS,
-You will be looking to have an account from me of the way in which we spent this day-the day of the consecration of the Rev. A. B. Turner. As soon as I heard by telegram that January 25 was to be the day, I issued a Pastoral Letter to my clergy directing that the Festival should this year be observed with exceptional solemnity. No accounts have reached me of what was done at the various stations, but I regret to say that at Chemulpó little could be done owing to Mr. Bridle having sprained his ankle. In Seoul the Festival began as usual on the eve, and was marked by solemn Evensong, followed on the following morning by the Holy Eucharist, and in the afternoon by Evensong and Litany. The Litany was introduced then because it was about the hour when it was being said in Westminster Abbey, the difference of time between this and Greenwich being about 8½ hours. This and the introduction of the special Suffrage (which was translated) enabled us to realise our nearness to the many who were then assembled in the Abbey. There were English services at the Church of the Advent-a Celebration and an Evensong, with Litany and special prayers of intercession taken from the office of the Consecration of Bishops. Most of our Corean Christians attended at least one of the services, and some of them all three.

 Assuming that Mr. Turner is now the Bishop of the Church of England in Corea, I celebrated on that day for the last time as the Diocesan. You will readily understand that it was an occasion of unusual solemnity to me. I forbear, however, to indulge in any remarks bearing on the feelings with which you, who know me, are well aware I was then animated. It is not easy to write on such a subject to such old and dear friends as you are, and, moreover, it is not necessary. I have written at length to the A.P.W.C., whose members form the bulk of the readers of Morning Calm. The present letter, therefore, is rather a postscript to my January letter-already on its way to England - and is written to assure you that our thoughts, as yours, were on this day centred on him who was to assume the responsibilities of this work of peculiar difficulty ; and with them the grace which, we doubt not, will be abundantly given to him to enable him to discharge them to the glory of God and the edification of His Church. You will continue to treat him as you have-for more than fifteen years-treated me and support him with your earnest prayers, offered to God without the intermission of a single day.
 And so I conclude this very long series of letters, each of which has always been headed “The Bishop's Letter."
-The series is older even than Morning Calm. Between November 1, 1889, and July 1, 1890, twelve of these letters had been written and printed, and sent to subscribers who were mostly my personal friends. Then you came into existence - the larger constituency formed rather by the friends of foreign Missions than by those who were personally attached to the first President of A.P.W.C. The first number of Morning Calm accordingly began with the thirteenth of the letters which, since August 1890, have been written by me every month. As I lay down my pen for the last time I cannot but ask you to join with me in grateful acknowledgment to Almighty God for the life, the health, the strength by means of which He has enabled me to reach so regularly an ever-increasing number of friends of the Mission. May these faithful and loyal friends, in increasing numbers, rally round Bishop Turner in their affection, not so much for him as for the Shepherd and Bishop of Souls," whose "constraining love" alone it is which supplies the impetus wherewith Our Mission work (of whatever kind) must be begun and continued if it is to be brought to a worthy, an acceptable, a Completed end. Thanking you again and again for all your many kindnesses to the Diocese and to myself,

 The members of the Association will before this have heard of the announcement which we have to make to readers of Morning Calm, other than members, to the effect that Miss Trollope, who has filled the post of General Secretary with such conspicuous ability since 1901, has on the score of illhealth been reluctantly compelled to resign her post. It would be impertinent for me to thank her for the good work she has done for the Mission; it has been a labour of love which has brought its own reward along with it, and she is, I believe, as sorry to relinquish her task as the Association is to lose her wise counsel and encouragement. It is satisfactory to know that the release from her burden has already resulted in a partial restoration to health, and at no distant date we hope she may be quite well and strong again. It is only what we should expect from her that she is already planning active work for the Mission, and before the winter comes she hopes to take up the work of Organising Secretary for London, and will make herself responsible for meetings, sales, and such like duties, which will materially help the development of our work.
 The new General Secretary, Miss G. M. Seccombe, is already in harness, and the change has been effected with the minimum of delay or disarrangement of the routine work of the Association, as she brings to the work a considerable knowledge of the work, coupled with a tried business capacity. It can hardly be necessary to bespeak for her a cordial welcome and support on the part of one and all of the Secretaries. Every new departure has so far been marked by an increase and development of the work, and this will, we doubt not be no exception to the rule. Much has been done, but much still remains to be achieved in the way of spreading our principles and commending them far and wide among those who have not as yet realised to the full the responsibilities and privileges of daily prayer for the foreign Mission work of the Church.

 The account he wrote me of his daily work there was so interesting that I am sending it (without his permission) to the Editor, in case he may wish to insert it, or a part of it, in this number. Also I am enclosing to him a copy of the sheet almanac of which he speaks. This cannot be reproduced in Morning Calm, but perhaps it may find its way to some sale of work-not for sale, indeed, but to be seen as specimen of the good work which our Corean printer has turned out under the direction of Mr. Laws.

But as we did not expect Mr. Bridle to arrive before Christmas Eve, and as Mr. Gurney had consequently made all the arrangements for the services(in three languages) of the festival, it seemed kinder both to him and Mr. Gurney (who is much interested in any work he undertakes) to let the arrangements stand, the many services on such a day being almost too much for one man.

-The repairs and additions to St. Luke's Hospital are completed, and Dr. and Mrs. Weir are in possession of a good hospital, with two large wards for native patients, two smaller rooms for Europeans, a commodious and well-lit surgery, together with operating- and waiting-rooms. Every morning prayers are said and the Bible read to the Coreans as they collect in the waiting-rooms, with an address sometimes from the Doctor and sometimes from Mr. Bridle; Eunice, our Corean "Bible-woman," doing the same for the women. We are hoping that in about six weeks we may have with us Miss Jephson, a lady who has only been prevented from joining us sooner by my inability to assure her of immunity from the hostile fleets. I hear that she is determined to wait no longer, and intends to start for Corea this month. If only she could bring a nurse with her St. Luke's Hospital would be perfectly equipped. Neither nurses nor lady doctors, however, will come to our assistance so long as this war continues. Yet since February 9 last year was one of the quietest years Corea has known. Praying that this year may be blessed to you all,

 MY DEAR FRIENDS,
-My last letter I wrote to you from Vancouver, and I said then that I should write again before I reached Corea, and I find that it is even more necessary that I should do so than I thought then, for I am going to stay for a fortnight longer than I intended in Japan. My intention when I left England was to hurry on to Seoul at all costs that I might see Mr. and Mrs. Hillary before they left for their furlough, but I have heard from Bishop Corfe that they have already started, so that I have no special reason for hurry except to set Bishop Corfe free to pay a visit that he is anxious to pay soon to Bishop Scott in Pekin, and he has given me permission to stay here for a few days that I may attend the meetings of the Synod of the Japanese Church, which begins on Thursday next, May 4. Knowing as you do the present condition of political affairs in Corea, where Japan is daily consolidating her power, you will readily understand how important it is that I should get such knowledge as I can of the system and working of the Japanese Church, and still more that I should make the acquaintance of the leading men in whose hands will lie, under God's guidance, her future. Of course one cannot accurately foretell the future, but it seem as if the power of Japan will increase in Corea, and that ecclesiastical matters will have to follow the same course as political affairs; and anyhow it is advisable for us to be prepared so far as is possible for whatever may come, and for this purpose I feel that I ought not to lose such an opportunity as the present.

I am going to-morrow to Yokohama to see Mr. Field, the chaplain, an old Keble friend, and then probably to Kamakura to see the Daibutsu, the great bronze Buddha, and next day return with Bishop Awdry, who is staying there for a day or two before the Synod commences, to dine with him and the other five Bishops in Japan, who are all assembling early for preliminary consultation. Next Monday if all goes well I shall go to Nikko to see the temples there, and after the Synod I shall go on as quickly as possible to Corea.
