N. Allen, then a member of the Central China Mission, was transferred to Korea. Christianity was still a forbidden religion, but when Dr. Allen arrived in September, 1884, General Foote, the United States Minister, appointed him physician to the Legation, which assured his position. In Decem- ber, 1884, an insurrection broke out in Seoul. Six Koreans were murdered at an official dinner party, and the King's nephew, Prince Min Yong Ik, who had been Korean Minister to the United States, was wound...ed. The native doctors wished to treat the wounds by pouring wax into them, and were astonished at Dr. Allen's skill in wash- ing them out and sewing them up. The Prince recovered, and Dr. Allen's influence was un- bounded. The King made him court physician, and fitted up a government hospital which was placed under his care. Dr. Herron and Dr. Un- derwood soon joined Dr. Allen, and thanks to their tactful work and the work of their later as- sociates, the mission work has spread throughout the country with small impediment.
