Footprints of the China Inland Mission: Missionary Maurice H. Hutton
請助我儕:傳教士胡致中

是次展覽展出Maurice Hutton(胡致中)的家族收藏。胡致中是二十世紀初中國內地會的澳洲傳教士。他最顯著的成就是為黑苗和亻革家人創建一套書寫系統,使他們可以用自己的語言閱讀聖經。

This exhibition features the Library’s latest acquisition, the Maurice Hutton Family Collection. Maurice Hutton was an Australian missionary of the China Inland Mission who went to China in the early 20th century. His most notable achievements were the development of scripts for the Black Miao (Hmu) and Keh-Deo (Gejia) communities allowing them to read Bibles in their own languages.
