The latter’s stay was very brief, for on October 5th he passed on to his reward at the comparatively early age of fifty. Of his twenty-five years in China the first eight were spent in Chekiang.

Early in January, 1908, Mr. F. Marcus Wood, Secretary of the China Inland Mission, to whose interest and help the schools owe much, kindly invited several old Chefoo boys to meet for a social gathering. As a result of that meeting four, E. S. Elliston (son of the first
Headmaster), W. D. Mudditt, H. W. Hunt and A. B. Randle met on January 29th, and formed the Chefoo Schools Association. Mr. Mudditt was chosen Chairman and still occupies that position.
