Martyr
Isaiah
Chinese Orthodox Christian, killed in Beijing in 1900 during the Boxer Rising.
Life
Isaiah was the son of Priest Mitrophan Ji, a soldier, aged 24. He was killed in 1900, on a day the list does not give, during the Boxer Rising. The list says he fled from the city; Piperakis' synaxarion writes that he was slaughtered before his father's eyes. His mother Tatiana was killed on 11 June.
His name stands in the list of the 222 Orthodox Christians killed in 1900, drawn up in 1904 by the Brotherhood of the Orthodox Church in China, on the testimony of relatives, neighbours and witnesses. No other details about him are preserved.
