This hero is the Rev, John Bakker. e is ubout fifty-seven years old and was born in Amsterdam, Holland, He entered the Redemptorist order and was ordained u priest in his native country. In 1863 the Redemptorists, at the earnest request of the pope, accepted the work in Guinna. It had previously been con- ducted by secular clergymen, but as they were not so thoroughly equipped for such an undertaking as the religious orders Pope Pius offered the duty to three different orders before the Red ists were asked to assume it. lined to'accept the task. The Rev. John Bukker was one of the pionecrs of his order to goout to the afflicted community with spiritual and physical comforts, and he worked with unvemitting zeal for their welfave. About 1880 the first dreadful plague manife: themselves upon the good priest. He, how- ever, remained at a little plantation called Livorno, outeide the city of Paramariby, the capital, until five years ago, when he was removed to the leper settlement of Batavi he Is expected to die in the near future. Rev. Mr, Bukker is perfoctly helpless, and has to be dressed and undressed by the assistant physician, who is also a leper. Bishop l\'ullin;\'h once asked Mr, Bakker if he wanted any favor of him, saying he would grant him anything he wanted, He at fivst smiled and vefused to necept anything, Upon being pressed to make u requost he only asked to be allowed $10 a yeur to spend for his phy- sician.
