greatly hi demand as an interpreter of foreign missions among
the churches.
i These stations, Ongole, Kavali
and Madras, are scgnes familiar
to him. General evangelistic and
educational work at Ongole gave
him. knowledge of Indian peoples
and customs and acquainted him
with the ever-present need. In
Kavali, he managed the Erkula
settlement and supervised work
among criminal tribes. Largely
through his influence industrial
training was introduced there and
produced marvelous changes in
the lives of hitherto ruthless
marauders. For this invaluable
service the government conferred
on him in 1919 the silver medal,
the Xaisar-I-Hind, and in 1930
the.gold medal of the same order
—the first Baptist missionary to
be thus doubly recognized for
"Distinguished service to the peoples of India."
Dr. Bawden is a graduate of
Denison University, University of
Illinois, and Rochester Theological Seminary. In 1933, when the
government reassumed supervision
of the criminal tribes, Dr. Bawden
\ continued his work at Madra.

Though retired, he is still very active, being greatly hi demand as an interpreter of foreign missions among the churches. i These stations, Ongole, Kavali and Madras, are scgnes familiar to him. General evangelistic and educational work at Ongole gave him. knowledge of Indian peoples and customs and acquainted him with the ever-present need. In Kavali, he managed the Erkula settlement and supervised work among criminal tribes. Largely through his influence industrial training was introduced there and produced marvelous changes in the lives of hitherto ruthless marauders. For this invaluable service the government conferred on him in 1919 the silver medal, the Xaisar-I-Hind, and in 1930 the.gold medal of the same order —the first Baptist missionary to be thus doubly recognized for "Distinguished service to the peoples of India." Dr. Bawden is a graduate of Denison University, University of Illinois, and Rochester Theological Seminary. In 1933, when the government reassumed supervision of the criminal tribes, Dr. Bawden \ continued his work at Madra.
