'''James Chalmers''' (* [[4. August]] [[1841]] in [[Ardrishaig]], [[Argyll|Argyleshire]], [[Schottland]]; † [[8. April]] [[1901]]) war ein schottischer christlicher Missionar der [[London Missionary Society]] in [[Rarotonga]] und [[Neuguinea]].<br />
<br />
Er diente zehn Jahre in [[Rarotonga]] auf den [[Cook-Inseln]], später hielt er sich 23 Jahre in Neuguinea auf und galt als einer der besten Kenner der Region. Er wurde 1901 mit seinem Begleiter Oliver Tomkins auf [[Goaribari Island]] erschlagen und verspeist. Vierundzwanzig [[Goaribari]] wurden im Gegenzug von Sir [[George Le Hunte]] getötet. Aufgrund seines bewegenden [[Märtyrer]]-Schicksals gibt es reichlich Biographien.<br />
