William Morrison (missionary)

William McCutchan Morrison (1867–1918) was an American Presbyterian missionary best known for his involvement with a campaign for reform in the Congo.

He was born on November 10, 1867, near Lexington, Virginia, and graduated in 1887 from Washington and Lee University.

[2] Morrison (with E. D. Morel) publicly denounced the exploitation perpetrated by King Leopold II’s regime in the Congo.

In 1909 he and William H. Sheppard were sued for libel by the government-controlled Kasai Rubber Company; their acquittal led to reforms.
