Hosts Work For CHINESE

Doctor Wolfendale was most indefatigable in his labours for the Chinese. Possibly there was no one more unselfish than he, no task being too great nor too hard for him in his efforts to relieve suffering and proclaim the Gospel; often misunderstood but never of any other aim than to do the very best in him for those with whom he came in contact. Last year he and his wife conducted a dispensary in Luchow, running up to an attendance of 34,000 patients, and for the last few years the attendance has been about that number per annum. Through all the fighting between the Yunnanese and the Szechuanese, both sides have always found the doctor ready and Willing to help, oftentimes after he had worked to the limit, with the wounded.
