Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Mission Work in Sierra Leona, West Africa For over forty years a band of devoted men and women have been toiling in an obscure field on the west coast of Africa. In their schools they have trained for usefulness several hundred of the youth, and have gathered over six thousand converts into native churches. Early in May, 1898, a heathen mob, displeased at the rapid progress of Christian civilization, and angry over the just requirements of the British Government, swept like a fierce hurricane over this mission field and the surrounding country, murdering seven American missionaries, many native pastors, and several hundred converts, and burning the mission property. This little volume tells the story by those personally familiar with it It also gives assurance that neither the burning fevers of the climate nor the blazing fagots and fiercer fury of the "war boys" shall prevent our completing the divinely appointed task in Sierra Leone. Rather will this baptism of fire and blood lead our people to a nobler consecration, and prepare the way among the heathen for a more fruitful harvest to be gathered into the Master's garner. As I have passed through these pages I have lived over again happy days spent in this mission field. Once more, I have enjoyed the courtesies of the gentlemanly British officers - in the governor's palace and in the police captain's mud hut - so refreshing in this dark land; again, I have renewed the joys of the glorious friendships of this heroic baud of missionaries, American and native, all dear to me as my own kindred.

"From all Thy saints in warfare, for all Thy saints at rest, To Thee, O blessed Jesu, all praises be addressed. Thou, Lord, didst win the battle, that they might conquerors be; Their crowns of living glory are lit with rays from Thee." Nelson. "the social advancement of Sierra Leone," says the Sixty-Seventh Annual Report of the Church Missionary Society, "is the triumph of' a great philanthropic and religious enterprize." The facts related in the preceding pages go far to prove the correctness of the foregoing statement. There are, it is true, some who have visited Sierra Leone, who have denied the success of the experiment, so far as the religious and social elevation of the people is concerned. The accounts given by missionaries, or those interested in missionary societies, are objected to by some parties as being partial and exaggerated reports of their achievements; although all who know the truth of the case bear testimony that missionaries far oftener understate than exaggerate the result of their labours. It is therefore satisfactory to be able to say that there is ample evidence of the truth of the statements made in the foregoing chapters to be found in the report of a Parliamentary Select Committee, which sat during the session of 1865, to investigate the condition of the West African colonies. That Committee was eminently impartial in its composition, and examined witnesses notoriously hostile to the negro race and to Christian missions, as well as those who were favourable. The Committee, at the close of its investigations, presented to the House the evidence they had received, together with a few recommendations. These documents have been printed in a Blue Book. They are too voluminous to...
