Later Life
He had devoted the later part of his life to the cause of the Brahmo Samaj. He continued his missionary work with zeal, travelling extensively, without any money in his pocket. A strong disciplinarian, he was perfect with his time keeping. A notable event was his visit to England in 1888, where he observed things keenly during his six-month long stay. There is a detailed description of England of the period in his Atmacharit (Autobiography), as well as in Englander Diary.
He died on 30 September 1919.
