註釋Dr. Jonathan Wade (1798-1872) and his wife Deborah were American missionaries. Dr. Wade graduated from Hamilton Literary and Theological Institution (later known as Madison University and finally as Colgate University) and was ordained in 1823. Shortly afterwards he and his wife were sent by the Baptist General Convention as missionaries to Burma. At the outset of the Anglo-Burmese War he was arrested and sentenced to be executed but was saved by the British Army. In 1833 he spent a year at the Hamilton Literary and Theological Institution giving instructions to the future missionaries. He also brought along with him two of his disciples. One was a Burmese named Maung Shwe Maung and another was a Karen named Saw Chet Thaing. The Wades: Jonathan Wade, D.D. and Deborah B. L. Wade: A Memorial (1891) was written by Walter Newton Wyeth (1833-1899).
