Dr. E. C. Bridgman, once members of the " Delegates' " Committee, Rev. Dr. Culbertson, Rev.
Dr. Jenkins, of Shanghai, and Rev. Dr. McClay of Fuchow, as a Committee of translation with power to publish the Bible when completed. The version of the New Testament prepared by this American Committee was published in 1854 and that of the whole Bible in 1862. Dr. Bridgman did not live to complete the work, passing from this life in 1861. Dr. Culbertson had the privilege of seeing the work finished bef...ore he died in 1862. This version was more faithful in rendering the original, but less elegant in Chinese style than the Delegates' version. It had a very large circu- lation during forty years, being the first complete Bible in Chinese published by the Society. Even now the demand for it requires it to be kept in stock at the depository at Shanghai.
