Walter graduated with honors from Princeton University in 1905, and studied at Hartford Theological Seminary; in Edinburgh, and Glasgow, Scotland; and in Göttingen, Germany. At age 23, he spent a year in Japan teaching English at Waseda University. After ordination, he became assistant pastor at the Asylum Hill Congregational Church in Hartford, Connecticut. He later became a missionary with the YMCA in India and Sri Lanka. Doctors had advised against his going, due to his weak heart, but he insisted he “must be true.” He died while working at the Foreman Christian College in Lahore.
Hymns:
The Blue Letter Bible ministry and the BLB Institute hold to the historical, conservative Christian faith, which includes a firm belief in the inerrancy of Scripture. Since the text and audio content provided by BLB represent a range of evangelical traditions, all of the ideas and principles conveyed in the resource materials are not necessarily affirmed, in total, by this ministry.
