Introduction

George Leslie Mackay, was born on March 21, 1844 in Zorra Township, Oxford County to George Mackay and Helen Sutherland, who were Scottish immigrants. In the late 19th century, he came to Taiwan to devote himself to missionary work and medical practice. He was called "Mackay", "Dr. Mackay " or "Rev. Mackay ". Western historians praised Mackay that he would "rather burn out, than rust out." Mackay studied at the Normal School, and taught at the primary school for six years after he graduated at 15. He entered Toronto University and Knox Theological College when he was 21. He entered Princeton Theological College in 1867, and graduated in April, 1870. After that, Mackay applied to the Overseas Mission of the General Assembly of Canadian Presbyterian Church and volunteered as an overseas missionary. On October 19, 1871, Mackay left his hometown and arrived in Kaohsiung on December 30. Taiwan wasn’t Mackay’s original plan. He said, “I had no plans, but invisible force were leading me to the ‘Beautiful Island.” Accompanied by Rev. Hugh Ritchie, they arrived in Tamsui on March 9, 1872. “One look toward the north, another toward the south, another far inland to the dark green hills, and I was content. There came to me a calm, clear, prophetic assurance that here would be my home, and some voice said to me, ‘This is the land”, said Mackay. Then he began preaching and establishing churches. Mackay taught people the knowledge of the public health, and started the medical practice. He also imported the vegetable seeds to farmers and introduced a lot of knowledge of science from the West. Dr. Mackay got married to. Cong-Ming Jhang (known as "Minnie" in the West) on May 27, 1878. On July 7, 1882, the building of Oxford College in Tamsui was completed. From 1883 to 1888, Dr. Mackay extended his missionary work to Taiwanese aborigines. In 1890, Dr. Mackay visited Hualian. After that he extended his missionary work all over north Taiwan. On May, 1900, Mackay suffered from throat cancer and became dumb. After fighting illness for years, he died in his Tamsui residence at the age of 58. By Mackay’s last words, his body was not buried in Tamsui Foreigners Cemetery but in his family cemetery. In memory of Dr. Mackay, who devoted himself to Taiwan, there was a street called “Mackay Street” in Tamsui. Besides, there was a Mackay’s head sculpture at this street. It has become an important historical sites.
