James Peggs

James Peggs (1793–1850), along with William Bampton, was a pioneer of the English General Baptists missionary to Cuttack, then-capital city of Orissa, to evangelize Odia people. As a pamphleteer, he extensively circulated the Pilgrim tax levied on Idolaters going on pilgrimages and horrible practice of Sati in then-Bengal, soliciting the notice of Britishers justifying the Colonialism and Evangelism among the heathens—not Christians nor Jews.
