		Henry Martyn was perhaps unique in the combination of his lingustic ability, intense concentration, and particular circumstances, but he is not an isolated case among the missionaries who were involved in translation work.
		As Martyn's case shows, as part of their missionary intention to evangelise, many of them were personally inspired by the Scripture and interested in translating the Scripture.
		Henry Martyn was an outstanding example of a nineteenth century Evangelical missionary in that he held the conviction that the Bible is the word of God and desired to make it available to the people in India by translating it into local languages.

		During the Civil War he served with the Union army and constructed defenses for Washington, D.C.; Philadelphia; and the port of New Bedford, Mass.

	Robert's Rules of Order - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Robert's Rules of Order is the informal short title of what has become a very widely used parliamentary authority—a book containing rules of order intended to be adopted for use by a deliberative assembly.
		The author's interest in parliamentary procedure was sparked when, one day in 1863, he was chosen to preside over a church meeting and, although he accepted the task, felt that he did not have the necessary knowledge of proper procedure.
		Robert himself published several later editions of this book before his death in 1923, the final one of these being a thoroughly revised and expanded book, entitled Robert's Rules of Order Revised and published in May, 1915 (at which time Robert had long been retired from the army, having attained the rank of Brigadier General).
