In spite of being a fledgling institution, the Free Church of Scotland had a considerable number of missionaries who wanted to bring the democratic church teachings to a world audience. Dhanjiobai Nauroji was a Parsi convert who was ordained a minister in the Free Church of Scotland in 1846. Seated across the table from him is the Reverend John Jaffray, Secretary of the Free Church Board of Missions. David Hill used the figure of Nauroji in his painting, *The Disruption Picture*.
