Warren B. Seabury: B.A., Yale College, 1900; B.D., Hartford Theological Seminary, 1903; M.A., Yale University, 1904, and ordained as a minister in the same year; active in planning and organizing the Yale Foreign Missionary Society, and went to China in 1904 to participate in the mission's educational work; in 1906 established the Yali Middle School, where he taught.

Warren Bartlett Seabury, the son of Joseph Bartlett and Martha Daniels Seabury, was born in Lowell, Massachusetts, on September 17, 1877. After preparing for college at Hotchkiss, he entered Yale College as a member of the class of 1900. After graduation from Yale, Seabury enrolled at the Hartford Theological Seminary and received the B.D. degree in 1903. The following year was spent studying comparative religion at the Yale Graduate School where he received his M.A. in 1904.

While a student at the Hartford Theological Seminary, Seabury helped plan and organize the Yale Foreign Missionary Society, and after being ordained as a minister in 1904, he sailed for China to help organize the Yale Mission's educational work.

Seabury's first two years in China were spent studying Chinese in Hankow and negotiating the purchase of a mission site in Changsha. By November, 1906, he had succeeded in establishing the middle school in temporary quarters and begun teaching.

On July 29, 1907, while on a holiday vacation near Kuling, Seabury drowned in a swimming accident. For further information see the biography of Seabury, The Vision of a Short Life, by his father Joseph Bartlett Seabury (Cambridge, 1908).
