|원문5=<div style="text-align:justify">Your kind letter of Oct. 23, came duly to hand and I want to thank you for it. In regard to what you say concerning the paper and the Board releiving met?) of the burdens, of course, if the Board as a Board pays for the conducting of any such thing as this, it involves the whole thing coming before the mission in a different way than it has heretofore come up. I find that there are about as many ways of running a paper on the field here as there are at home in America. I suppose that you have received a copy of the Pyeng Yang report, which will show you plainly that they consider that a Christian paper should have no general news, no foreign news, no political news and no advertisements and in fact should confine itself to one theme. A great deal is said at home through a misinterpretation of St. Paul's statement. “He determined to know nothing save Jesus Christ and Him crucified," is taken to mean that there is but one and only one thing to be done. There is but one thing to be done, and that is to preach Christ in His entirety, with the light of the gospel as in our home lands and it is but 0right that when we come to these lands, we should endeavor to give them an all around gospel. The Christian News aims to be an all round family Christian paper, containing information along farm lines for the farmer, in arts and sciences for the artizan, market reports for the merchant, articles on the home life for the Christian home, all to be given in a Christian way and with the one great object of winning these people to Christ through the Christian News. Mr. Reynolds of Chun Ju tell, of a man who becoming interested in the farm items read still further and was converted. A Korean maker of bell metal in Kyen Sang Do, took the paper to see what he could learn about foreign arts and sciences and is now an active, earnest Christian in that section. Numbers of other cases might be cited. The majority of the mission however, think that a Christian paper should be restricted as I mentioned above and hence, although my brother has written that you brought in a resolution to the Board for proposing that the Mission ask for an appropriation to cover the deficience during my absence in America; I do not think that the mission will make the request. The only hope is that some Christian brother at home will realize the need and undertake to continue the enterprise for the year and a half that I shall be away.</div> | |원문5=<div style="text-align:justify">Your kind letter of Oct. 23, came duly to hand and I want to thank you for it.

| − | |원문7=<div style="text-align:justify">In regard to the sale of the mission property here in Chong Dong, I had not written you anything because I had nothing to say concerning the matter. I said my say at considerable length before. My opinion is not one whit changed, at the same time when I found that the majority of the missionaries here thought that this should be sold, although they stated that they would vote against it if I opposed the sale, I felt that I did not want to stand out in such a matter against the whole mission, and told the mission, that while I could not vote in favor, I would not vote against the sale of the property. It was after this statement was made, that Dr. Sharrocks and I were appointed a committee of two, to estimate the various properties on the land and report to the mission. The committee reported to Seoul station first. The Seoul station then made a report which was then sent down to all the stations and I think was approved by everybody. I suppose you have received a copy of the same. Dr. Sharrocks and I went carefully over all the items and it is a result of this careful estimate that is made here. In my own opinion considering the cost of the property in this section, the total asked 49,220 yen and a site elsewhere is rather small, but in such matters the vote of the majority was taken, and that is the proposition that has been presented to the government. At the last annual meeting I was appointed by the Mission property committee, a committee to complete the arrangements with the government within the terms specified. (For fear that you have not a copy of this, I enclose a copy herewith.) For the last week or more since my return from the country, there has been considerable communications back and forth in regard to the matter and practically the whole is agreed to with the exception of the first item on site. In regard to site His Majesty positively says, that no part of the “old Sai Mun An old palace grounds" can be given. They offered to purchase all the remaining land “inside and to the north of the west or new gate," and offer to make up the deficiency in area by a suitable piece outside the gate. In all these matters out here you have to strike when you can and under these circumstances I thought that I would, if the station agree to the site which they offer, to conclude the bargain.</div> | + | |원문7=<div style="text-align:justify">In regard to the sale of the mission property here in Chong Dong, I had not written you anything because I had nothing to say concerning the matter.

|원문8=<div style="text-align:justify">Under these circumstances, you see that we will be soon needing an architect from America to superintend the putting up of these new buildings. At the same time the man can superintend the building of the new hospital and there is Mr. Miller's house and Mr. Gale's. Of course the question comes as to who can come. I do not know whether you can find a suitable architect in New York city to undertake this. There is an architect, who as yet has not had much practical knowledge, a student at Park College, Missouri, who will graduate from there next spring. He is more of a practical builder than architect. Out here at the present time we can secure a very good Chinese builder, the one who put up Dr. Field's house, a man who seems to be trusty and who has been in America, who has given up his heathen worship and was baptised in the baptist church at Tang Chow Foe. A man who was a good architect to superintend all the work and to see that this Chinaman does the right thing would be all that would be needed. In addition to this, I am just writing to H. B. Gordon, Confederation Life Building, Toronto, Canada, a certified architect of Toronto, of the firm of Gordon and Hilliwell, who has been a successful architect competitor for several government buildings in Canada. He is considerably interested in Korean missions. He has just lost his family and has not much to tie him to Canada. From all that I know and hear of him, I think he could leave his business in the hands of his partner, and while the amount that has been asked for such a one, for his expenses here and during his stay and his return expenses would not give much remuneration to such an architect for the work that he would have to do, I think that if Mr. Gordon is free and able to come, that his interest in the Korea Mission would make it such that he would give a year or a year and a half to this work. In our reckoning we allowed for an architect to come out here, be on the field for one year and for his expenses back to America 6,000 yen or 3,000 U.S. gold dollars was what we put down for this. If he had to stay longer than a year because of their being mission buildings which he could superintend, I suppose the Board would have to pay him for the additional time. Another advantage appears to me in connection with a man from Toronto or one of the smaller western cities over New York is that the chances are he would be more ready to adapt himself to circumstances and would be more quick to realise what material would be suitable. An instance to the point, I have written to one or two architects concerning building in Korea, both in New York, Toronto, Japan, and China and Mr. Gordon was the only one who in his first reply stated, that he must know the relative cost of bricks, timber, stone and the kind of workmen we had if he was to give advice concerning buildings for Korea. It would be a great advantage, if we could have a man of Mr. Gordon's experience in building to assist at this time when there is so much building to be done, and really in the end it would be a great saving to the Board. None of us missionaries are architects, none of us are builders, and while we have of necessity studied up concerning architecture and building, it would certainly be a great help if we could have a man like Mr. Gordon at this time to superintend our buildings when there is so much to be done.</div> | |원문8=<div style="text-align:justify">Under these circumstances, you see that we will be soon needing an architect from America to superintend the putting up of these new buildings.

|원문9=<div style="text-align:justify">Another matter concerning which you should be advised is in regard to the placing of the new hospital and the hospital plant. At the last annual meeting it was proposed and carried that if the new hospital was to be outside of Seoul, an effort should be made, when we are removing the Chong Dong plant to combine the hospital plant and Chong Dong plant in one strong centre, where each could mutually aid the other. The idea then would be to have three strong plants, one at Yun Dong, one in the centre of the city in connection with brother Moore's church, and one at the West in connection with the Sai Mun An church. If this is done, you see a doctor’s house will have to be built and it would be a great saving of time and money if the whole thing could be built under the superintendence of a good architect.</div> | |원문9=<div style="text-align:justify">Another matter concerning which you should be advised is in regard to the placing of the new hospital and the hospital plant.

Your kind letter of Oct. 23, came duly to hand and I want to thank you for it. In regard to what you say concerning the paper and the Board releiving met?) of the burdens, of course, if the Board as a Board pays for the conducting of any such thing as this, it involves the whole thing coming before the mission in a different way than it has heretofore come up. I find that there are about as many ways of running a paper on the field here as there are at home in America. I suppose that you have received a copy of the Pyeng Yang report, which will show you plainly that they consider that a Christian paper should have no general news, no foreign news, no political news and no advertisements and in fact should confine itself to one theme. A great deal is said at home through a misinterpretation of St. Paul's statement. “He determined to know nothing save Jesus Christ and Him crucified," is taken to mean that there is but one and only one thing to be done. There is but one thing to be done, and that is to preach Christ in His entirety, with the light of the gospel as in our home lands and it is but 0right that when we come to these lands, we should endeavor to give them an all around gospel. The Christian News aims to be an all round family Christian paper, containing information along farm lines for the farmer, in arts and sciences for the artizan, market reports for the merchant, articles on the home life for the Christian home, all to be given in a Christian way and with the one great object of winning these people to Christ through the Christian News. Mr. Reynolds of Chun Ju tell, of a man who becoming interested in the farm items read still further and was converted. A Korean maker of bell metal in Kyen Sang Do, took the paper to see what he could learn about foreign arts and sciences and is now an active, earnest Christian in that section. Numbers of other cases might be cited. The majority of the mission however, think that a Christian paper should be restricted as I mentioned above and hence, although my brother has written that you brought in a resolution to the Board for proposing that the Mission ask for an appropriation to cover the deficience during my absence in America; I do not think that the mission will make the request. The only hope is that some Christian brother at home will realize the need and undertake to continue the enterprise for the year and a half that I shall be away. |
div style="text-align:justify">박사님이 따뜻한 마음을 담아 지난 6월 22일에 보내주신 편지가 제 때에 도착했습니다. 감사드립니다. 박사님께서 그 신문에 대해, 그리고 본부에서 제 부담을 덜어 주는 것에 대해 말씀해 주신 것에 관한 이야기를 드리고자 합니다. 물론 본부에서 이러한 일을 처리하는 비용을 지불하게 되면, 이제까지와는 다르게 그 모든 것이 선교부와 연관을 갖게 됩니다. 본국인 미국에서와 마찬가지로 이곳에도 신문의 특성을 정하는 여러 가지 방식이 있는 것을 보게 됩니다. 박사님께서 평양보고서의 사본을 받아보셨을 것이라 생각되는데, 그것을 보시면 그 사람들은 ‘기독교 신문에는 일반 사회의 소식, 국외 소식, 정치 상황에 대한 보도나 여러 광고 등은 전혀 없어야 하며 철저히 한 주제만을 다루어야 한다’고 생각하고 있는 것을 알 수 있으실 겁니다. 바울이 했던 말을 잘못 해석하여 본국에서 이에 대한 말이 많다고 들었습니다. “내가 그리스도와 십자가에 못 박히신 것 외에는 아무 것도 알지 아니하기로 작정하였노라”라고 사도 바울이 했던 말이 ‘해야 할 일은 오직 한 가지 밖에 없다는 의미’로 받아들여지고 있습니다. 우리가 해야 할 일이 한 가지인 것은 분명합니다. 그것은 우리 본국에서와 마찬가지로 복음의 조명을 받으며 그리스도의 통전성 내에서 그 분을 전하는 일입니다. 이 땅에 온 우리는 복음과 관련된 모든 것을 이 사람들에게 전해 줄 수 있도록 힘써야 합니다.『그리스도 신문』에는 농부들을 위한 농업 관련 정보․전문인들을 위한 예술 및 학문적 정보, 상인들을 위한 시장보고, 그리스도인 가정을 위한 가정생활에 대한 글들을 실어 포괄적인 기독교 신문이 되고자하는데, 이 모든 내용을 기독교적인 방식으로 보도하여 『그리스도 신문』을 통해 이 나라 사람들을 그리스도에게로 인도하는 큰 목적을 이루고자 합니다. 전주에 있는 레넬즈 씨는 ‘농업관련 기사를 관심 있게 보다가 이 신문의 내용을 더 보게 되었고 결국 신앙 생활을 시작하게 된 사람이 있다’고 말합니다. 종의 금속 재료를 만드는 일을 하면서, 외국 예술과 학문에 대해 배울 만한 게 있는지 보려고 그 신문을 가져다 읽었던 경상도 사람이 있었는데 지금 그는 그 지역에서 적극적이며 성실한 그리스도인으로 살아가고 있습니다. 그 외에도 이와 같은 사례가 많이 있었습니다. 그런데도 선교부의 대다수 사람들은 기독교 신문의 내용은 엄격히 제한되어야 한다고 생각하고 있습니다. 그래서, 제가 미국에 가 있는 동안 돈이 부족하게 될 것인데 ‘이를 메꿀 비용을 선교부에서 요청해 달라’고 제안하는 결의문을 박사님께서 제출하셨다고 알리는 편지를 제 형이 보냈습니다만, 선교부에서 그러한 요청을 하리라고 생각되지는 않습니다. 그리스도 안에서 형제 된 본국의 몇몇 사람들이 이 필요성을 깨닫고, 제가 떠나 있게 될 1년 반 동안에도 이 사업이 지속될 수 있도록 보살펴 주는 것이 유일한 희망입니다. 제가 본국으로 돌아가는 일에 대해 말씀드리겠습니다. 저는 올 봄에 떠날 수 있기를 바라고 있었습니다. 연례 회의에서 사이드보담 씨가 서울로 옮겨와서 나와 함께 일하는 것이 좋겠다는 제안이 있었을 때, 저는 ‘제가 바라는 대로 하는 게’ 가능하겠구나 생각했었습니다. 그렇지만, 사이드보담 씨는 부산으로 가게 되었고 샤프 씨가 저와 함께 있도록 임명받았습니다. 그런데 샤프 씨는 아직 한국어를 잘 모르기 때문에 제가 가을까지 머물러 있어야만 하는 상황입니다. 제가 브라운 박사님을 서울에서 육로를 통해 평양으로 모시고 갈 수 있으면 좋겠습니다. 그러면 우리가 여러 지방에서 해 나가고 있는 사역을 브라운 박사님이 볼 수 있게 되실 겁니다.</div> |
