My Dbabest Charley, The first week in August 1848, our new Louse on the hill, 'College ttill' as we called it, was sufficiently completed for us to remove there; and Sunday the 12th, we had divine service in our large dining hall, instead of in the lower room of the Court House. A wide staircase outside the front of the house, with a pretty little porch at the top, leads to this hall. Over the porch, hangs a great bell, which rings at certain hours of the day, to set us all to our various employments; it calls the Malays to their work at six, the Chinese at seven; at eleven, it rings for their two hours to rest; at one, that they may begin work again; at five, to say work is over for the day. At one time, when we had no longer workmen in our employ, I thought the bell, and our ears too, might have a little rest from its frequent dingdong, but the townspeople petitioned it might go on as usual, for they were so accustomed to time their hours by it, they should feel quite at a loss without it. While we were removing to the Mission House, the Rajah, and nearly all the English, were away on the expedition up the pirate rivers, which I told you about some time ago. On the 24th of August, however, they returned, and a great rejoicing took place; our house was filled in every corner, with officers from the ships of war, who enjoyed a few nights on shore, and especially on our cold breezy hill. On the evening of the 26th, six Dyak women, who had been made captives, and were kept and brought to Sarawak, as hostages for their husbands' good behaviour, arrived, and the Rajah asked me to take care of them; he wished to shew them how differently Christian people treat their prisoners to what pirates do, consequently these poor women were...

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Letters From Sarawak: Addressed to a Child The Mission at Sarawak was invited there by Sir James Brooke, to assist him in his schemes of philanthropy for Borneo. The funds at first furnished for its support, in answer to his appeal, were raised by the exertions of a few private individuals, with the assistance of grants from the Christian Knowledge Society, and the Society for the Propagation of the Gospel. After five years, this money was entirely expended, and the Mission must have fallen to the ground, had not the Society for the Propagation of the Gospel come forward to its support, from theIst Jan.1853. But although this Venerable Society has undertaken this new task, on its own responsibility, its income is fiilly pledged to existing Missions, and there being no surplus fund, it must look entirely to the enlarged bounty of Churchmen, to enable it so to increase the force, and complete the organization, of the Mission to Sarawak, that the Church may be planted in the purity of Gospel truth and the perfectness of Apostolic order, in a land where the glad news was never before made known. Shall not England have the honour of building up this young and vigorous nation of Sarawak, in a faith which it is willing to embrace, and thus be the means of enlightening and gathering in the millions of Borneo, and the adjacent islands, into Christs Church?

Download or read book X Marks the Spot written by Megan A. Norcia and published by Ohio University Press. This book was released on 2010-03-30 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the nineteenth century, geography primers shaped the worldviews of Britain’s ruling classes and laid the foundation for an increasingly globalized world. Written by middle-class women who mapped the world that they had neither funds nor freedom to traverse, the primers employed rhetorical tropes such as the Family of Man or discussions of food and customs in order to plot other cultures along an imperial hierarchy. Cross-disciplinary in nature, X Marks the Spot is an analysis of previously unknown material that examines the interplay between gender, imperial duty, and pedagogy. Megan A. Norcia offers an alternative map for traversing the landscape of nineteenth-century female history by reintroducing the primers into the dominant historical record. This is the first full-length study of the genre as a distinct tradition of writing produced on the fringes of professional geographic discourse before the high imperial period.
Download or read book Three Centuries of Mission written by Daniel O'Connor and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2000-11-01 with total page 486 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A new and expansive official history of the USPG commissioned to mark the tercentenary in 2001. The first half tells a compelling global story from the mission to the Americas in the 18th century, through the North China Mission in the late 19th century to today's Social Development Programme in Bangladesh. There is a particular focus on the post-1945 period of decolonization, development and dialogue with other religions. The second half is a collection of essays that give a wide range of themes and perspective from a history of missionary wives by Deborah Kirkwood to a discussion of the evolving role of the church in Zambia by Musonda Mwamba.Three Centuries of Mission emphasizes the key instrumentality of the USPG in the emergence of a worldwide network of Churches in the Anglican Communion and their significance in the world at the beginning of the new century.
