Description
“School ‘skailing’ Sialkot.” View of several young indigenous boys standing in courtyard as they leave school. The mission’s main teaching institution was the Scottish Mission College, which was opened in 1889 by Dr. Youngson. There were also other smaller schools for teaching younger students a number of which were set up in the Punjab under the supervision of John Taylor (1837-1868) and Robert Paterson, who arrived in Sialkot in 1860 and represented the Church of Scotland Foreign Mission. The college, now known as the Murray College, was nationalised by the Pakistan Government in 1972.
