Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Book Description
George Leslie Mackay or Má-kai; (21 March 1844 - 2 June 1901, aged 57) was the first Presbyterian missionary to northern Taiwan (then Formosa). Born in Canada, He dedicated his life to bringing medical, dental, and spiritual guidance to the people of Taiwan. Along with establishing more than 60 local churches, Oxford College (Aletheia University), the first girls' school (Tamsui Girls' School, 1884) and Tamsui Middle School (Tamkang Senior High School), he was also involved in the bringing of Western medicine to Taiwan. A key achievement was the establishment of what is now called the MacKay Memorial Hospital in 1880. He also helped to adapt the Taiwanese language to a written form by adapting the Latin alphabet to represent it phonetically. It is safe to say that he is the most famous and beloved foreign expat who has lived in Taiwan.

Book Description
He did not wear his scarlet coat, For blood and wine are red, And blood and wine were on his hands When they found him with the dead, The poor dead woman whom he loved, And murdered in her bed. He walked amongst the Trial Men In a suit of shabby grey; A cricket cap was on his head, And his step seemed light and gay; But I never saw a man who looked So wistfully at the day. I never saw a man who looked With such a wistful eye Upon that little tent of blue Which prisoners call the sky, And at every drifting cloud that went With sails of silver by.
