Plants and Missions They shall not hurt nor destroy in all my holy mountain: for the earth shall be full of the knowledge of the LORD, as the waters cover the sea. And in that day there shall be a root of Jesse, which shall stand for an ensign of the people; to it shall the Gentiles seek: and his rest shall be glorious.

A LETTER TO THE HEATHEN FROM THE HODGE CHILDREN
On June 23, 1833, J. R. Eckard, a Princeton Seminary graduate, set sail to bring the gospel to Ceylon. Before departing, ten-year-old A. A. Hodge (who was later to take his father's chair of theology at Princeton) and his sister Mary Elizabeth, gave Eckard a letter to him beginning "Dear Heathen," and two hard earned bucks for gospel literature. Though addressing anyone as "heathen" nowadays causes the politically savvy to howl, in young Hodge's day the word was not nearly so controversial. We include the letter here because it exemplifies childlike hope in the victory of the gospel.
