Hr went out to liuiin in 1839, and took priest's orders ni Madras in 1845. After forty~two years of missionary and ediiuizi;-iifil labour in diflerent parts of Soutliern India, he returned to Enginni ii. 1881, and in 1883 became Oxford din cesnn secretary of the society for the Propagation ol the Gospel, and was University lecturer in Tamil and 'I‘el» ugu nt Oxford lrom 1884 to 1896. Di' Pope‘s life-work, as was explained by R. W. Fraser at the meeting oi the Royal Asiatic Society in 1906, when he received the gold medal con- ferred every three years by tlint so ciety for distinguished Oriental scholarship, has been to unruvel thc long-lost history of the life and thought of Southern India, of a race now to be found, in the words ofthe Dravidian scholar Caldwell, "where ever money is to be made, wherever an apathetic people is willing to be pushed aside, there they swarm, these Tamils, the Greeks or Scotch of the East." .Speaking on the saint occasion, Colin Morley paid nn eloquent tribute not only to Dr 1-‘ope's industry' and achievements he ri scholar, but also to the sympathy \vith which he had cultivated inter- course with the- backward peoples, as ue are apt to call them, among whom his lot was cast."
