Dr. Walker was Minister of Music from 1992 to 2004. He currently serves on the faculty of the Peabody Institute of the Johns Hopkins University, and is Minister of Music Emeritus at Brown Memorial Presbyterian Church in Baltimore. The offering anthem was composed in honor of Dr. Walker’s tenure as Minister of Music at Shadyside. Mr. Choi is a graduate of Yonsei University (Seoul) and Manhattan School of Music (New York). For many years, he has been choral director at YoungNak Presbyterian Church (Seoul), the largest Presbyterian congregation in the world. Mr. Choi is also Artistic Director of King’s College School Asia Foundation. 6 Shadyside Presbyterian Church Mission Partner Spotlight In 1924, Shadyside Presbyterian Church built a hospital in the Shantung Province of China. The hospital was part of a larger mission compound that was used as an internment camp during World War II. (Langdon Gilkey’s book, Shantung Compound, relates his experience in this internment camp.) This hospital is now a historical site, surrounded by Shadyside Park. In an attempt to renew and restore our relationships in this region, various teams from Shadyside have traveled to China, most recently in October 2015 for our fifth visit. Highlights of this relationship include exploring a historic culture, reliving our own history, and continuing discussions with a church in Wei Hei to enable us to walk alongside the growing Christianity of China.

    THE WESTERN PENNSYLVANIA HISTORICAL MAGAZINE Volume 58 April 1975 Number 2 FROM SAIL TO STEAM: Shipbuilding in the Pittsburgh Area, 1790-1865 William F. Trimble construction of ocean-going vessels was an unusual and ro- Themantic aspect of Pittsburgh's economic development. Shipbuild- ing in Pittsburgh and the surrounding region generally coincided with periods of American maritime expansion and commercial growth. It took place also during a time of vigorous technological advancement in which the steam engine began to revolutionize the means of ships' motive power, and iron started to replace wood as the chief construc- tionmaterial for ships' hulls. Americans along the eastern seaboard theorized about the possi- bilities of building ocean-going craft on the western rivers. As early as 1761, when no more than a handful of settlers had filtered through the Alleghenies, a Philadelphia publication, Father Abraham's Alma- nac, predicted that Fort Pitt eventually would become a leader in western shipbuilding. Benjamin Franklin suggested in 1770 that sloops and schooners be built on the Ohio River for the West Indies trade. However, none of these proposals materialized until the 1790s. 1 Cut off from markets in the east by a nearly impenetrable moun- tain barrier, the early residents of the upper Ohio Valley accumulated an agricultural surplus. Water transportation down the Ohio and Mississippi, usually by flatboats or crude rafts, enabled western farmers to sell their goods in New Orleans, and from that port the Mr. Trimble, a native of Pittsburgh,— received his Ph.D. in history at the University of Colorado inBoulder.
