But he was utterly pow- erless to accomplish the great object our Government had in view till he obtained at Canton the services of Dr. Peter Parker, a medical missionary, and Rev. Dr. Bridgeman, an accomplished Chinese scholar, both of the American Board of Missions. These two gen- tlemen were made secretaries of the embassy and TOFOREIGNMIS SIGNS 13 through them the negotiations with the Chinese plen- ipotentiaries were wholly carried on to successful completion. Mr. Gushing returned to Ameri...ca to receive the plaudits of his countrymen for an achieve- ment due in large measure to the humble mission- aries. Dr. Parker became so useful to the Govern- ment that for several years he acted as charge of the legation and later became the Minister of the United States to Ghina.
One of the best known of Americans in Ghina was Dr. S. Wells Williams. He mastered that most diffi- cult language, and came to be recognized as the first scholar and linguist of all the foreign residents. When our Government determined to force an entrance into Japan, which had been hermetically closed against all foreigners for centuries, Gommodore Perry was dis- patched with a formidable fleet, and both America and Europe were laid under tribute to furnish men of learning and fitness to make the expedition a success.
