Martyn was an Anglican missionary to India. On September 28, 1804, while still in England, he wished to obtain a copy of Carey's Bengali New Testament (p. 119). On August 30, 1805, Dow's preference of Hinduism to Christianity (p. 232-233) angered Martyn. He feared being corrupted by association with the East India Company (p. 307). His description of his entry to the Hooghly River on May 12, 1806 is worthy of quotation: "The flat shores on either side were covered with low wood, and I never saw land near sea, present a less interesting appearance. I felt the same surprise as I have often done elsewhere in the solitude and apparent desertion of a place much spoken of. I thought to have seen whole fleets of ships, vast numbers of natives on the shores, and appearances of cultivation, but there was nothing of the sort. A village indeed was seen running in an easterly direction from the shore into the interior, consisting, we heard, of no less than 10, 000 houses; but there seemed to be nothing doing. Five or six miserable people only were seen cutting down the jungle for firewood (p. 327)." On May 16, 1806 Martyn "with some difficulty found Carey." Martyn joined Carey in worship in Bengali "for the advantage of a few servants, who sat, however, perfectly unmoved." (p. 328). Martyn met with Joshua Marshman on a number of occasions. He heard Marshman lecture on Greek grammar (p. 331); took advice from Marshman on his mission strategy and prospects for the Gospel (pp. 333-334); and watched Marshman dispute with Brahmins (p. 337). Marshman wished that Martyn would study Hindustani so that he could assume direction of the Serampore Mission if Carey and Marshman should die (p. 338). Martyn was concerned, however, that Marshman spoke with contempt of the Brahmins (p. 344). Martyn died on October 16, 1812 while in the eastern Mediterranean region.
