[Sidenote: The Swedish Martyrs.] There is a small _Swedish Lutheran Mission in Mongolia_, begun in 1899 with three missionaries, its station being at Hallang Osso, eighty-five miles north of Kalgan. This mission suffered greatly during the Boxer uprising, its three missionaries being killed. It seemed for a long time that labor in this district was worse than useless, but a few faithful workers have persisted. Now the three missionaries who are on the field believe that the harvest will shortly be gathered. The Swedish missions have laid many sacrifices upon the altar of the cause which they love. The total number of Swedes murdered in the Boxer uprising was about forty, one-third of the whole number of the westerners who were killed. A number of these were Lutherans. If the blood of its martyrs is the seed of the Church, there opens for Sweden a great future in China. The _Lutheran Gospel Association of Finland_ carries on a mission in Northern Hupeh with sixteen missionaries in four stations. AMERICAN SOCIETIES. [Sidenote: A Generous People.] The _Danish Lutherans_ support, as we have seen, the mission of their fatherland. Five American Norwegian Lutheran bodies have missions in China, to which they contributed in 1915, about $118,000. _The United Norwegian Lutheran Church_ is at work in the south central portion of the Province of Honan, where it took over in 1904 several stations of an independent society. It has now six stations and forty-nine missionaries. The Christians number about fifteen hundred. Among the stations are Sinyang, where there are training schools for native workers and Kioshan where the mission hospital is situated. _Hauge’s Norwegian Lutheran Synod_ began its work in China in 1891. The main station is Fan Cheng and the territory lies partly in the Honan and partly in the Hupeh Province. The field of this mission covers six thousand square miles and has a population of between three and four millions. The working force includes twenty-one missionaries, two of them medical missionaries, and ninety-eight native helpers. The Christians number twenty-six hundred. The _Norwegian Synod_ has had a mission in Honan since 1912. Here ten missionaries are at work in three stations. The _Norwegian Free Church_ has been at work in Honan since 1915. There are six missionaries at work in a section the population of which numbers two million. The _Norwegian Lutheran Brethren Society_ established its mission in Honan in 1900. There are fourteen missionaries at work.
