Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from What We Do in Nyasaland Nyasaland was our first love. It was there that the pioneers of the Universities' Mission set up the Bahner of Christ, and though necessity for a time' compelled us to move it to another and far distant shore, Nyasaland was the goal to which we always pressed forward with eager longing and ardent hope. Well I remember the overwhelming sadness which shadowed our hopes when we heard of the death of Charles Janson, and the enthusiasm that greeted every scrap of news from his fellow-worker, William Percival Johnson, when after long delays his letters reached us.

Download or read book Thirty Years in Nyasaland Classic Reprint written by Augustine Ambali and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-10-26 with total page 82 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Thirty Years in Nyasaland The first missionary chosen to begin the work was C. F. Mackenzie, of Caius College, Cambridge, who was consecrated as Missionary Bishop to the tribes round Lake Nyasa and along the Shire River on the Ist of January, 1861. The Bishop with a party of three priests and three laymen attempted at once to reach the diocese by the Zambezi route they got to Magomero and some work of much promise was begun, but before the end of the year slave-raiding, and tribal war generally, made any settled work impossible. Early in the next year, 1862, the Bishop went to Chiromo to meet some new workers; various accidents happened, including a canoe upset and the loss of all medicines. Shortly after the Bishop got fever and died on January 31. The work of that year (the first organized missionary work in the country) is represented by the graves at Magomero and Chiromo, and the first native Christians of Nyasaland date from it. One child who died was certainly baptized, and another (anne Daoma) who was first taught by Bishop Mackenzie is still alive and is working as a Christian teacher in Cape Town. A memorial church dedicated to St. Paul was built at Chiromo in 1907, and in 1921 it was re-erected at Blantyre, since the township of Chiromo has ceased to exist. The grave of Bishop Mackenzie near the junction of the Ruo and Shire rivers is well kept and cared for. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Missionary's Life in Nyasaland I should like to add that, though I have written entirely about my own Mission and Diocese, it is not because I selfishly disregard the interests of other Missions. I am trying to present a picture of a small part of the Mission field, well aware how small it is, because I happen to know about it. I do most earnestly sympathize with every effort to spread abroad the knowledge of the love of God in Christ in every land and in every race.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Nyasaland Under the Foreign Office With the exception of a few connecting paragraphs and explanatory notes, which have since been found necessary to give coherent shape to the work of many solitary evenings, every word of this book has been written among the scenes of which it treats. It has been my habit to record personal experiences and impressions as nearly as possible at the time of their occurrence; and I have spared no pains to verify, on the best obtainable authority, any statements relating to historical and other matters outside the scope of my own direct knowledge. Since going to Africa I have often regretted my imperfect acquaintance with scientific methods of research, for I have felt that this disability relegated me, in a country full of natural wonders, to the position of a mere uninstructed observer.

Download or read book Wild Life in Central Africa Classic Reprint written by Denis D. Lyell and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12 with total page 394 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Wild Life in Central Africa This book is a simple account of the ripe experience of ten years spent in Central Africa, which is the tract of country known as Nyasaland and north-eastern Rhodesia. The former protectorate used to be known as British Central Africa, and the latter territory is now amalgamated iwith north-western Rhodesia, known collectively as Northern Rhodesia, to distinguish it from Southern Rhodesia, which embraces the old-time territories of Matabeleland and Mashonaland. For the last ten years I have spent a wandering sort of life in Nyasaland and north-eastern Rhodesia, so, to get a short and descriptive title, I use the title Wild Life in Central Africa. I am afraid this is rather a disjointed kind of volume, digressions are frequent, and possibly there is a certain amount of repetition. For this I can only plead that I have suffered much from malarial fever, both in India and Central Africa, and my memory is such that I sometimes forget what I have written soon afterwards.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from 1, 000 Miles in a Machilla: Travel and Sport in Nyasaland, Angoniland, and Rhodesia, With Some Account of the Resources of These Countries The following pages record our travels off the beaten track in an out-of-way portion of the British Empire, which, on account of its distance from the coast and other drawbacks, is likely to remain little known for some years to come. Information from the latest Parliamentary and other official papers in regard to the products and resources of N yasa land and Rhodesia has been collected, and may prove useful to prospective settlers and traders. A final chapter on the enlightenment of the African native may not be deemed superfluous in these days of universal education. As I do not shoot, I am indebted to my husband for the two chapters on sport and description of game. The illustrations are from photographs taken on the Spot. We should both like to take this Opportunity of thanking the officials, who showed us invariable kindness during our wanderings, and to express our admiration of their self-denial in devoting energy and talent to the administration of justice amid savage tribes. Their efforts, often involving the sacrifice of health, and sometimes of life, cannot be too highly appreciated by their fellow countrymen.

These I have altered slightly to suit their appearance in book form If some of my remarks (about the natives, for instance, ) do not meet with the approval of others, I can only say that they are the ideas of a single individual, although many men in this country have similar opinions. In all cases I have only mentioned facts, and everyone knows that some facts are disagreeable; but that is no reason why they should be kept back or hidden.

This book was released on 2017-11-12 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Foreign Crops and Markets, Vol. 36: May 14, 1938 About two - thirds of the Nyasaland crop is fire-cured, grown by natives in the Northern Province, and used in the United Kingdom for pipe mixtures. The fire-cured crop averages about 12 million pounds annually. When the question of tobacco auctions for this crop was first considered, difficult problems arese. As the baskets brought in by natives contained only small amounts, it was obviously impossible to auction each basket separately. The situation was met by the Native Tobacco Board, which agreed to purchase all tobacco at a fixed price, bale it, and turn it over to the auctioneer for disposal.
