The gravestone of Cecil H. Robertson stands in the cemetery behind the missionary church in the eastern suburbs of Ningpo [Ningbo]. The Rev. Dean Goddard preached at this church. Inscribed on the stone: "In loving memory of Cecil H. Robertson MD FRCS of the English Baptist Mission April 9, 1884 - March 16 1913 For me to live is Christ." FRCS stands for the Fellowship of the Royal College of Surgeons. This photo is from the papers of Dean Goddard, who was an ABFMS missionary in Ningpo, Che-chiang, China from 1870-1903.
