Carroll Condict served as a missionary to Burma for 42 years. He was appointed in 1911 and sailed with his wife Isabel Adams Condict that same year. He served as general missionary at the Thayetmyo station and worked among the Chin people for four terms before World War II. In 1940, Condict became field secretary of the Burma Baptist Mission with headquarters in Rangoon. He left just ahead of the approaching Japanese army in 1942. He was twice a member of the Burma Reference Committee and for three years served as secretary of the Board of Trustees of Judson College in Rangoon. His Chin Primer and Chin Hymn Book were products of his translation, and his retirement was postponed so that he could finish the New Testament in the Asho Chin language.

Returning to the U.S. in 1942, Dr. Condict served at two hospitals in New England and then was called to Washington to help in interpreting various reports from Burma. In 1945 he went to Burma as a noncombatant intelligence officer of the Office of Strategic Services of the U.S. Army.

Dr. Condict’s hobby was dentistry, and he often told of pulling more than 16,000 teeth during his years in Burma.
