| 1895 | Gutian Leprosarium"THE MARTYRS WORK AMONG LEPERS One of the most important branches of the work of the murdered missionaries was among the lepers, to whom every attention was paid. By means of help supplied by the society for the evangelisation of lepers an asylum capable of holding 48 was erected at Ku-Cheng during the year 1893. In a church close at hand a congregation of between 30 and 40 lepers, of whom 29 were baptized, met for worship. An old man, himself a leper, whose ministrations among these poor sufferers were referred to in the annual reports of the church Missionary Society for 1891-2, died during last year."
