ANGLO-INDIAN EVANGELISATION SOCIETY.

TUE EIGHTEENTH ANNUAL l\fEETING of the Society was held in Willis's Rooms, St James's, London, on the 15th of April 1889.

The Right Honourable EARL OF ABERDEEN presided. The meeting was opened with prayer by the Rev. JAMES JOHNSTON,

F.S.S., Secretary of the Centenary Missionary Conference. The Rev. JOHN FORDYCE presented the Report; and an Abstract of

Accounts for 1888; and referred to some additions to the Directorate, and specially the proposal that would be made, that Colonel JOHN ROBERTSON, C.l.E., late Assh;tant-Accountant-General in the Military Department in India, be invited to act as Honorary Treasurer of the Society.

The noble CHAIRMAX, after an able and earnest speech, in which he referred to his tour in India as impressing him with the importance of this Society, moved the following resolution :-

"That the Report, with Abstract of Accounts now submitted, be adopted as the Eighteenth Report of the Society; that the Office-Bearers be re·appointed, with the addition of Sir Charles Ait<:hison, K.C.S.I., Sir Charles Bernard K.C.S.I., and Sir Augustus Rivers Thompson, K.C.S.L, to the Vice-Presidents of the Society j that Colonel John Robertson, C.I.E., be requested to act as Honorary Treasurer, whilst ~Iessrs Bevan and Leckie remain in the London and Edinburgh Committees; the Directors having the power to fill up vacancies that may occur during the year."

l\fajor-General A. J. BRUOE seconded the Motion, which was unanimously agreed to.

The Rev. DONALD FRASER, D.D., moved the Second Resolution :­"That this Society has a strong claim on the support of the Protestant Churches

of the United Kingdom for larger support than hitherto, in the interest of Christian ~Ii5sions to the heathen as well as from the destitution of Christian ordinances for Europeans in many parts of India and Burmah. "

The CHAIRlIIAN regretted to have to leave, and requested Sir CHARLES BERNARD to take his place.

SIR CHARLES, from the Chair, seconded Dr FRASER'S l\fotion, and illustrated the importance of the Society's work from the experience of many years in India and Burmah.

The resolution was then agreed to. Surgeon-Major PRI~GLE, M.D., proposed a vote of thanks to the EARL

OF ABERDEEN and Sm CHARLES BERNARD, and to Dr FRASER for his impressive address, which was heartily responded to by the audience.

The meeting was closed with the benediction by the Rev. Dr VERNER

WHITE, of South Kensington.

A Meeting was also held in Edinburgh in the Saloon of the Royal Hotel on the 30th of April,-Principal SIR 'W'ILLIAM MUIR, K.C.S.l., in the Chair. After a statement by the General Secretary, the meeting was addressed by the CHAIRMAN; the Rev. P. H.. MACKAY of Prestonpans; the Rev. J. A. KERR B.A.IN, M.A.., of Livingstone, late of Rangoon; the Rev. Mr ROBERTSON, Edinburgh; and H. A. MACFIE, Esq., of Dreghorn.

The Annuall\feeting will be held in Edinburgh in 1890. A

MEMORANDA.

1. At many places there are Honorary Treasurers and Lady Collectors where there is no Committee. '

2. We are deeply grateful to the Lady Collectors, without whose aid many con~ tributions would be lost. It is most desirable that their number should be increased, especially in England. It is not always agreeable work; but it is for the Master, and for souls.

3. The difficulties of collecti.p.g is sometimes increased by meeting refusals from those who were not at all likely to give. For such a society few will give except the best of the people-the O"'ristianelite~who have something to spare, and whose hearts the Lord has touched.

ANGLO-INDIAN EVANGELISATION SOCIETY.

GENERAL REPORT FOR 1888.

IIORE than eighteen years ago the Society entered on its

! special Mission in India, and it has now the double plea of

J good work already done, and of much more thai needs to be done for our countrymen in India. In addition to these

which appeal to Christian patriotism, there is a plea that should enlist the rising Missionary spirit of the Churches, viz., the un­speakable importance to all branches of Missionary effort in India of Britain's representatives of all classes being truly and evidently Christian.

The Directors, whilst grateful for the hearty sympathy of many, venture to submit that, considering the Society's relation to the highest interests of all the Protestant churches of the United Kingdom, and 'all the nationalities of India, it is entitled to a wider and more generous support than has hitherto been realised.

The tendency of the GOVER...~MENT OF INDIA has been of late to contract rather than increase its grants. for Christian work, with the exception of a capitation grant for services for small groups of soldiers under 100 by others than Chaplains. No provision is made to obviate the need of the Anglo-Indian Evangelisation Society. The need is really increasing. Appeals come from Railways, new and old, and from the extending Tea Plantations.

The METHODIST EPISCOPAL CHURCH, that has done much for Europeans as well as Natives, has lately adopted a policy that increases the claims on this Society. That Church, now under the superintendence of Bishop Thoburn, who is a member of the Calcutta Committee of the A. 1. E. Society, is bending its energies to Native work, and limiting its action for Europeans more than hitherto to self-sustaining centres. This, along with the extension of Railways and Tea Plantations, makes it important that this Society's Evangelistic Agency should be at least doubled, and that speedily.

Two PROPOSALS have been made for extension when the means are available. One is a renewal of a plan suggested by the Society's Commissioner in India in 1871, viz., that young preachers might be invited to give themselves for a limited period-two years or more-to evangelise in India before entering on their life-work, whether as Ministers ·01' Missionaries. The increase of evan­gelistic zeal and gifts in the Churches gives hope of a readier

6 Anglo-Indian Evangelisation Society.

response now •. The other plan is to employ a few unmarried Lay­men on salaries considerably less than those of married Evangelists. The gifts and experience of the married Evangelists now in the field are valuable for a complex and difficul t work; but it is desir­able to have a few agents, not only less costly, but free from the trial that SOIqe of the brethren have of being much separated from their families.

SECRETARY IN INDIA.

THE REV. H. G. EMERIC DE ST DALMAs, went to India as an :E:vangelist in 1882, and was appointed Secretary in 1884. He has been drawn towards Native work in which he had been engaged before. He knew at least one Native language well, and Mrs De St Dalnias has also acquired it with a view to usefulness. Hence he resigned his connection with the Society in April last, and took charge of a Mission at Sohagpur, in the Central Provinces. For three months after his resignation he acted gratuitously as Secretary, and for this the Directors have recorded their best thanks.

THE REV. ISAAC F. Row on his return to Southern India from Assam, at the end of June, at the request of the Directors became interim Secretary. He agreed to this with hesitation, and has repeatedly requested to be relieved. He has remarkable gifts for Evangelistic work, and his desire must be met to be more free for this as soon as possible .. Meanwhile, like his predecessor, Mr De St Dalmas, he gave himself with much zeal to less congenial work; and one result has been larger contributions in India than in any previous year. In t.his the other Evangelists have aided him more or less. The yearly increase of subscriptions in India will, it is hoped, encourage the supporters of the Society at home. Mr Row now resides at Poona, and has a vast district that includes about 2000 miles of railway. He needs, at least, two young men to aid him.

ORDINA TrONS.

Three of the Evangelists have been ordain ed to the Christian ministry in connection with three Churches, illustrating the Catholicity of the Society, viz., Messrs G. W. Oxborough, Fawcett E. N. Shaw, and James Shaw.

Mr F. NICHOLSON is now the only Lay-Evangelist. He has been doing good service in the North-West Provinces, and part of Bengal.

SCINDE AND QUETTA.

The Rev. JAMES SHAW has been removed from Sukkur to Quetta. The'Directors were induced to sanction this on the plea that Quetta is now t~e best centre for work on the Railways towards India and towards Kandahar, and also, by the need of his

A nglo-I ndianEvangelisation Society. 7

serVices by a porti-on of the .troops at Quetta. For tllese services the Government will pay, lessening the charges on the Society. This combined arrangement will only be continued if it be found practicable for Mr Shaw to carry on alternately the services of acting Chaplain and Railway Evangelist. The Directors have had both oral and written testimony to Mr Shaw's great usefulness. The combination is an experiment, though not the first one of the kind; and if the two lines of action be found to be incompatible, Mr Shaw will have his free choice to remain with the Society or not as he may prefer.

A NEW WITNESS OF INDIA'S NEEDS.

The Rev. P. R. MACK.AY, of Preston pans, returned in April, after a year among the mountains and on the plains of India of fruitful services. Their renewal has been desired for Mussoorie, but he clings to the congregation that gave him up so generously for a time. He has more than once pled the cause of the Society, and is now one of the Directors.

DARJEELING AND DISTRICT.

The Rev. H. RYLANDS BROWN resumed, at the close of the Darjeeling season, his tour among the planters in his important district. The Union Church at Darjeeling prospers under his pastoral care eight months of the year, and the other four he gives to the work of the Society.

SOUTHERN INDIA.

The Rev. C. W. CHRISTIAN, of Bangalore, continues his work on the Madras Railway, and at places near it, with sustained zeal and some success; and the Directors have authorised an arrangement with the Rev. T. H. WHITAMORE, of Madras, formerly of Calcutta, to visit some very destitute districts for two months further south. In 1883 Mr W. visited part of Assam in connection with the Society.

KATHIEW All, ETC.

The Rev. FAWCETT E. N. SRA W, of Baroda, has done good work at that capital of a Native State as well as along the Railways from Bombay to Ajmere, etc. A Missionary, however, of the Methodist Episcopal Church has now been placed at Baroda, making it unnecessary for him to remain, and he may soon go to a more destitute place as his centre.

CENTRAL PROVINCES.

Messrs FULLER and PALMER, American Missionaries at Akola, in the Central Provinces, visit a few places, but have only had a

8 .Anglo-Indian Evangelisalion Society.

small allowance for actual expenses. Mr Row recently visited .them, and was much gratified by what he saw of them, and by the testimony of an English Church Chaplain to the value of their work for Europeans.

ASSAM.

The Rev. ISAAC F. Row spent, as in 1887, nearly the first half of the year among the Tea Planters of Assam, receiving a rordial welcome where he had been before, and also at places not pre­viously visited. He went for a short time to Shillong, the Highland capital of the great province. There and elsewhere there were more results than can be published. An increase in contributions confirms and supplements reports of spiritual blessing.

The Rev. G. W. OXBOROUGH has now gone to Assam for at least a few months. His success in the N orth-West Provinces and Bengal gives hope of efficient services among the Tea Planters of Assam, who have a good claim for more efforts than have ever been made to promote their highest interests.

THE REV. DR FRASER. .Dr Fraser's aid has been perfectly honorary. His report of work

during the year has come late; and will be referred to in the Appendix. The Society has in him a judicious, earnest, and valued friend.

Among the friends and supp€>rters of the Society who have finished their earthly pilgrimage, four have been closely identified with the Society:-

1. The late LADY Kn.TNAIRD has soon followed her like-minded husband, a serious loss to the cause of Christ, specially in London and India. A suggestion of Lady Kinnaird's in 1874 led to the fonnation of the Winter Mission, a name chosen by her, and so brief and expressive that others have adopted it. During the past year Lady Kinnaird repeatedly expressed, with character­istic emphasis, her deepening sense of the impDrtance of efforts for our countrymen in India, and a few weeks before her death she sent a cheque for £10, her last gift to the Society. Her works follow her, and they remain to stimulate others.

2. The Rev. CHARLES MELVILLE PYM, Rector of Cherry Burton, went to India, in connection with the Winter Mission, in 1881, as the now venerable Dr Somerville had done in 1874-5. Mr Pym had been a military officer in India in early life.· After his conversion he entered the ministry of the English ChUrch. Though a Rector in Yorkshire, he exercised his evangelistic gifts in various parts of England, and in Australia as well as India.

3. The Rev. J. WARDROP HARD:NER, formerly a Missionary at Poona, was a much esteemed member of the EdinburghOom-

Anglo-Indian Evangelisation Society. -9

mittee. His memory and his work are happily perpetuated by two sons and one daughter in the Missionary field.

4. The Rev. GEORGE BOWEN, of Bombay, a man of God, hon­oured and loved in both hemispheres, and a warm friend of this Society, fell asleep in Jesus early in 1888. To quote the words of Bishop Thoburn: "His life was an inspiration, his presence a benediction, his work a blessing, and now his memory is as ointment poured forth. He sweetly rests from his long and weary labours, and his works do follow him, and for yearf~ and years to come will continue to follow him. He moved among his brethren with the veneration of a patriarch, and yet he ever preserved the simplicity of a little child. His unique career will not soon be forgotten in India. Other saints will arise to bless the land, but among t.hem all-and they will be many-will arise no more saintly man than George Bowen."

ANGLO-INDIAN RE-UNIOX.

The most memorable meeting of many held during the past year was a Re-Union Breakfast in the Lower Exeter Hall, under the Presid~ncy of an ex-Viceroy, the Right Honour­able the Earl of Northbrook. It was held on the 8th of June, the day preceding the first meeting of the Centenary l\fissionary Con­ference. An abridged report appears in the Appendix. Old Indian friends met that morning who had not seen each other for many years. I t was a happy gathering; and it may be renewed with advantage to the Society.

THE ANGLO-INDIA'S" LADIES' UNION

Has been increasingly helpful to the Society during the past year. A sketch of their varied efforts will be found at p. II.

FUNDS. There has been a slight increase in the contributions at home

as well as in India; but the expenditure has exceeded the income, so that the working balance is less than a year ago. Earlier subscriptions would obviate the necessity of paying interest for advances to meet Indian Bills; but this would not fully meet the needs of the Society. A very considerable increase is required to warrant a much-needed extension.

Distinguished Anglo-Indians, East and West, have supported the Society. These include three ex-Lieut.-Governors,- Sir William Muir, Sir Rivers Thompson, and Sir Charles Aitchison,­Sir Charles Bernard, General Sir Robert Phayre, and many others. His Excellency Lord Reay has been for years a subscriber, and now a member of the Royal Family is among the contributors­H.R.H. The Duke of Connaught.

B

10 .A nglo-Indian Evangelisation Society.

The claims of the Society are not only on Anglo-Indians and their relatives, and intimate friends. The people for whom the Society cares are "as sheep without a shepherd,". and they are from England and Wales, Scotland and Ireland. Some of them say to the Evangelists, "How is it that Christians at home do so much for the heathen, and so little f01' 'Us?" If matters were better understood it would be seen that the Society is, as Dr Marshall Lang says, at once a Home, a Oolonial, and a Foreign Mission. It is for sons and daughters in the midst of the heathen. If the far-reaching importance of the Society's work for Natives as well as Europeans, and for eternity as well as time, were sufficiently realised, there would soon be ample supplies of men and means for extending the work in India, and also in Burmah. Let no one who is able to help say, " AM I illY BROTHER'S KEEPER?"

THE LATE REV. PETER BANNATYNE.

Two hours before the meeting at which this Report was adopted had assembled in London, Mr Bannatyne, who had been General Secretary and Treasurer of the Society for ten years, entered on his rest and reward. He died at Portobello, near Edinburgh, after a long and painful illness. His first charge as a minister was at Hexham, in Northumberland, from which he was translated to Bothwell, near Glasgow. Soon after resigning the pastorate, he accepted the appointment of General Secretary to the A. I. E. Society, which he resigned in 1885, on account of infirmities from advancing years. He laboured with much earnestness for our countrymen in India, and managed the affairs of the Society with great care and accuracy. He retired with the cordial esteem of the Directors in London and Edinburgh, and of many in England and Scotland connected with the Society.

Vice· President-LADY MUIR, Edinburgh. Hon. Secretary and Treasurer-

Mrs FORDYCE, "Simla," 124 Kensington Park Road, Notting Hill, London, W.

THE circling flight of time has closed another year over the Ladies' Union with the 31st of December of 1888, and holds securely for ever what has been cast into its wealthy treasury. It has been a year of goodness from the Lord, who has blessed the honest efforts of the little band of workers desiring to please Him. They are deeply grateful for the past, and look hopefully into the un­known future. But the solemn shadow of death has fallen on our ranks three times last year,-the first since our existence,­translating on Good Friday one aged believer, on Easter morning another-a beloved wife, mother, friend, and earnest worker-and somewhat later on, yet another dear and greatly esteemed Chris­tian member to the upper sanctuary, for the higher, sinless service. It was a strange but pleasing coincidence, that the first two DEPARTED ONES should be laid in their dreamless bed on the same day and at the same hour; one in London, the other in Edin­burgh.

Blanks like these are not easily filled, and we record therefore gratefully that a loving daughter has beautifully taken the vacant place of her beloved mother on the member list of the Ladies' Union. The other two will wait for ] 889.

Twice during the present year have Indian articles been sent by Mrs Macpherson and her friends from Simla. They were well­selected, and found a ready sale before Christmas, realising the sum stated in the list of contributions. To the kind donors best thanks are presented.

Friends at many Stations in India could be helpful to the Society in this way, if solicited by friends in this country to send articles of Indian manufacture, free by Parcel Post, to the address of the Hon. Secretary of the Ladies' Union. A few rupees spent on articles as a gift are well bestowed, and yield interest.

One esteemed member initiated" Thanksgiving Cards," as at once a means of remembering mercies received, and the Society's need of means for its work, .proving by her own example their success, in handing her card with twelve shillings. Another member, encouraged thereby, took a card and filled it up with ten shillings. Others are sure to adopt the plan by and bye.

Several members joined the Secretary in sending prizes for a Sunday School of European and Eurasian children. It was begun with five little ones, and in less than a year numbered twenty­eight. Three ladies managed it as a labour of love, despite of difficulties. One of these ladies, and My Oxborough, were the

means of starting this school. Of late other Evangelists have mentioned Sunday Schools begun by them in their Stations, so that this effort is mul~iplying and calling for encouragement from this country.

The Ladies' Monthly Meeting has repeatedly during the year enjoyed the pleasure and privilege of having ladies from India present, at home for a time from places where Evangelists of the Society labour. They told of their earnest watching for souls and their unwearied labours; their consistent Christian life and the many phases of work to which, by circumstances and events, they are called, and of the great need of sympathy amidst many untold trials.

During the month of November many ladies sent packets of cards, texts, booklets, etc., some accompanied by letters, to the Evangelists for their own families, and for distribution in their districts when on tour, for Ohristmas and New Year. The most hearty thanks have been received with t.ouching incidents of their reception. Everywhere they were greatly appreciated.

To a lady in Edinburgh (:!\1rs M--), who sent a most lovely selection of large illuminated texts, it will be pleasant to know that they created quite a sensation amongst the recipients.

Good literature has been sent as before by several members and non-members, and never loses in interest. More of this syste­matic effort would prove grateful to many lonely stations and families in India.

Would some ladies, though not Anglo-Indian, who read these pages, not like to share the joy of making a bright Christmas to some European exiles, children, or lonely sufferers in hospitals, by sending tokens of goodwill in the shape of illuminated texts, cards, papers, booklets to India early in November to any Evan­gelist preferred, whose name and address is found on page 2 ?

The Hon. Secretary, with the full concurrence of managing members, gave an address in the Powis Hall, London, in Decem­ber, to upwards of 150 ladies, elucidating the object, efforts, and claims of the Anglo-Indian Evangelisation Society and Ladies' Unior:. in order to meet the oft-repeated remark, "The Society is not known," which seems marvellous; as it has existed since 1870. The address was well received, and two little girls from Simla gathered the free-will offerings at the close. One other result was that several ladies indicated their intention to join the member­ship of the Union.

The addition to our ranks this year has been but slender, as only nine new names have been enrolled, bringing the total number up to sixty. It is, however, encouraging that with so slight an increase, our funds are one-third more than they were in 1887, with the addition of fifteen members.

Of 60 ladies in membership 37 have subscribed to the Ladies,

Union; of the remaining 23, some collect for the Anglo-Indian Evangelisation Society or subscribe to it directly, while a few have left the country, and two or three have not subscribed at alL

For the kind donations from friends not members very sincere thanks are rendered, with the hope that many others will follow their good example and experience the joy of turning gold and silver into blessing.

Reviewing the past year, the question presses heavily for con­sideration, Why do we remain so few? If the work. is a very great, true, and important one; if it forms a link in the chain of human life, grappling with momentous realities and destinies for time and eternity, why then the paucity of workers and the scantiness of funds? Surely it needs only a calm, earnest scrutiny of claims and responsibilities to commend the Anglo-Indian Evangelisation Society and the Anglo-Indian Ladies' Union to deep sympaihy and adequate support.

Could many touching stories meet the public eye of soul­struggles, isolation, bitter trials, sins and sorrows, they might elicit generous contributions, but the veil may not be lifted either from the sanctity or sin of private life. It is surely enough to know that our countrymen, and possibly our kindred, look to their native land to provide them with spiritual privileges, when they toil on that far eastern shore for their own support, or for the benefit of this country in its many aspects, commercial, civil, or military.

Cheerfully let us own the obligation laid upon us by the God of all the earth-that of BEING OUR BROTHERS' KEEPERS.

Not what we hold is ours, but what we give To God, in whom we move, have being, live. The talents: strength, time, power, gold, or health, Are all His own, and to us of this wealth He LENDS FOR SERVICE, not for pomp or ease, To hoard or lavish, as may debtors please. The Lord's command is-occupy FOR ME THY T.A.LENT, spend-be spent, win souls to be Gems for My crown! Ah, let us not delay! Life's golden sunset speeds our fading day; The LORD will come, heed now the reck'ning word, Immortal soul, WH.A.T OWEST THOU THY LORD ?

I.-Only Anglo-Indian Ladies who, at any time of life, have resided in India, are invited to become members.

2.-Every Lady joining the Union shall pay 2s. 6d. to entitle her to Member­ship. This sum paid only once, will cover the initia.l and incidental expenses in starting the Union.

3.-Every M.ember is to give or gather not less than 58. annually, more if possible, and send the amount to the Hon. Treasurer, not later than 1st December of each year, so that the accounts may be audited and appear in the Society's Report with a. special entry. Ladies already Collectors for the Anglo.lndian Evangelisation Society are not expected to pay 5s. extra.

4.-The Members are to offer prayer on the first Tuesday of each ?nonth, either singly or in groups, for the Anglo-Indian Evangelisation Society, the Anglo-Indian Ladies' Union, the Evangelists, and all Anglo-Indians, whether in India or at home.

5.-The Members are expected to make the Society. and Union known, and to interest friends in their operations, to gct addresses of Anglo. Indian Ladies and send them to the Hon. Secretary; to solicit Ladies to send Papers, Periodicals, and other Christian Literature, regularly to. isolated Europeans, in or near small Stations, or scattered over wide districts in India, for which purpose the Secretary will give addresses, and attend to all inquiries and communications •

• *. It is earnestly requested that the Members will send their subscriptions at latest during the month of November, to the Hon. Treasurer, without special reminder, either in postal orders or cheques, if at a distance. Attention to this saves considerable postage. All contributions are acknowledged by receipts.

ANGLO-INDIAN RE-UNION in EXETER HALL.

THE most memorable of many meetings held in connection with the Society in 1888 was the Re-Union Breakfast, on the 8th of June-the day preceding the first meeting of the Centennial Missionary Conference. The Right Hon. the Earl of Northbrook presided; and there were Missionaries, Ladies, and Laymen present from all parts of India, and Burmah, connected with all the Evangelical Churches. Friends met in that Hall who had not seen such other since they parted in India..

After a hearty breakfast, devotional services were conducted by BISHOP STUART of Waiapu, formerly of the C. M. S. in Bengal. The General Secretary made a statement regarding the work of the Society, which need not be repeated here; but the excellent speech of Lord Northbrook, as reported in The Times, is given in full :-His Lordship said he had very gladly consented to take the chair at that breakfast in consequence of the in vitation of !Ir Fordyce, whose good work he knew very well in India, but he could not confess to have had any previous connection with the society. He had read its report, however, and by the names of those who supported it he saw that all his old friends in India who were constant supporters of all that was good, both with regard to the English and to the natives in that country, were cordial supporters of that society. He saw that the object of the society was to bring, from time to time, to the scattered English who were engaged in different employments far from the ordinary administration of any Christian community, the exhortations and services of the different Christiau Churches-of all Protestant Christian denomina­tions. That must be an object which commended itself to everyone. There were, as they all knew, differences of opinion as to the exact value and impor­tance of missionary enterprise in India, but, in regard to this particular branch of Christian work, he supposed there would be no one who would deny the immense value of the work which the society was carrying on. That breakfast was, he thought, a suitable commencement to the missionary conferences which were about to be held, because it was well that, while we were doing what we could for the development and wise organisation of Christian missions in India and elsewhere, we should not forget our own countrymen. Moreover, it was, he thought, most suitable that the society, being one which included all denominations of Protestant Christianity in its work, should have its meeting just before the great missionary conference, the aim and intention of which were to bring to­gether all the missionaries of Protestant Christian Churches, of whatever denominations they might be. He had himself always held that it was of the greatest possible value in India that the great religious difficulties, which, in the face of the vast heathen and Mahomedan populations in that country, were so striking, should make us forget and put on one side those comparatively minor distinctions which existed between the different branches of Protestant Christians in England, in Europe, and in the United States of America. Therefore he thought that any organisation or society which brought all these together was especially deserving of the support of Christians in England. He believed the work to be a most important one, both with reference to the persons for whose benefit it was carried on and also in respect to the general welfare of that great Empire in which all Englishmen took such a deep interest. It was of the utmost importance that every Englishman in India should understand that his individual conduct and character and the sincerity of his religious convictions had an influence far more than that which attended his own personal conduct-that he represented, in whatever part of India he might be, that nation to which, under the providence of God, the direction of affairs of that enormous country had been confided.. If he set an example of Christianity, of good conduct, of kindness and sympathy, to the natives of India with whom he was brought into contact, he was doing a great work in assisting the confidence of the natives of India in their 'l'ulers. Then, on the other hand, when his conduct, less now it was to be hoped than in old times, did not bear that scrutiny which it should bear, - it brought English rule in India into disfavour and contempt, and, moreover, gave an advantage to those who were opposing .the spread of Christianity among the natives of India wherever the misconduct .of Englishmen in any part of the country became, as it ha.d done in some cases, a scandal to their fellow-country·

16 .Anglo-Indian Evangelisation Society.

men. In conclusion, he expressed the hope that the work of the society in future years would have a greater and more powerful tendency to bring to the scattered communities of Englishmen throughout India a keen sense of their duties to themselves, their country, and their God, as well as to the natives of India with whom they were brought into contact.

The other speeches were very impressive, but space can only be given for a sentence or two from each, quoted from Word and Work:-

,SIR CHARLES BERNARD,K.C.S.I., said :-Thlnk what it must be for a young man to be sent to that land, left alone in the midst of new and great temptations, surrounded by heathen and heathen only; . without a Christian friend or Christian service; surely it is a terribly daugerous position. What a blessing to have some Christian minister or evangelist now and then to go to that young man with a message of higher things. To his mind this society for evangelising our own countrymen in India and Burmah ought very peculiarly to commend itself to all who had sons or daughters or dear ones in the East.

Rev. FrLMER SULIVAN, Vicar of St Mathews, Bayswater, who has just returned from his winter mission to India, gave an interesting account of his observations and impressions in India. He spoke of the spirit of hearing amongst English-speaking natives, of the good work done in a quiet way by Christian officers aud civilians, and of the sore need of more workers. One thing he specially rejoiced in was that in these days of "mixed seed" this society abhors all such mixture, and sticks fast by the Old Gospel. India needs the Gospel; our countrymen in India need the Gospel if their presence is to be a blessing .rather than a bane.

The Rev. P. R. MACKAY, lately returned from India, said of the Society:­Its labonrs are carried on among people of English blood and birth who are wholly cnt off from Christian privileges. He had been pained to find that not a few humbler European e1nplo!le.~ were becoming Roman Catholic, simply because the Romanists reached them and we did not. It is gratifying, however, to find, when we do go to them, how ready they are to hear the Gospel. Alas! the Church as a whole has been strangely neglectfnl of her duty to her sons and daughters who have left their own land, and are now scattered all over the Indian Empire. It is high time that all churches united in a strong and far-reaching 'effort to send out men to all parts of India to preach the Gospel to the Europeans and Eurasians. They are swift to hear, willing to hear, but few indeed are the messengers of good tidings in the remote out-stations of the land.

Mr SAMUEL SMITH, M.P., who has been travelling lately in the north of India,· had been impressed by the fact that the influence of our representatives is not altogether on the side of Christianity. They do not set the example to the heathen we could wish them to do. The individual power of Englishmen for good or for evil is very great. They are looked to as examples. The natives test Christianity by those who are nominally Christian, hence the vast import­ance of evangelising onr own conntrymen in India.

Rev. Dr MURRAY MITCHEl.!., in an address glowing with fire and fervour, dwelt on the extent and vastness of the field before the society's labourers. Said one Englishman lately, "You blame us for forgetting religion, but you forget we have been for years without seeing or hearing a minister or a missionary."

The effect on the native population of the work of the society is very great and blessed. If India is to be won, the Englishmen in India must first be won to Christ.

Rev. J. HUDSON TAYLOR, of the China Inland Missions, made a stirring appeal for those far removed from Christian friends and Christian teaching.

Rev. JOHN HEWLETT, lI.A., Principal of the College at Benares, added a few facts as to the influence of Europeans on natives, and told how· one Hindu !!laid, "Sir, the people of India have heard the Gospel, what they need [s to see examples of Christian life."

After a few hearty words by one of the Vice-Presidents ·from Scotland-R. A. MACFIE, Esq., of Dreghorn-and a cordial testimony from a venerable Mission­ary-the Rev JAMES KENNEDy-tO' the importance of the SocietY's work, the meeting was closed by the benediction. .

NOTES BY THE GENERAL SECRETARY.

THE REV. DR SOMERVILLE, who knows much of India and of the work, writes:­"The idea of the Anglo-Indian Society is admirable," and he confirms his testi. mony by a golden gift. The Rev. DONALDSON ROSE, M.A., realises "the magnitude and importance of the work," in which, like Dr Somerville, he had a. share in the days of other years, and his welcome support should be suggestive to others in Brechin and elsewhere.

A GALLANT COLONEL in the south of England writes to the Lady Collector :­"This year's Report of the work, both in North and South India, is so encouraging that I gladly double my subscription."

A CLERGYMAN'S WIFE writes that one of her sons, a military officer, "spoke highly of Mr Ryland Brown's work," but another son, an engineer, in another part of India, "had not been in a church for two years. . He himself has had often to read the burial service over the poor European dri vers who die very quickly out there." This good lady adds, "It is dreadful how young men are imbued with CANON TAYLOR'S views." The Canon tried to deal a blow at Missionary Societies ; but he may not have thought of the far-reaching effect of his "winged words" on young men at home and abroad, who little needed words so suggestive. .

A LADY sends a guinea, whose son is a tea-planter, and writes :-" I sent a donation to your Society in '87, with the hope that some, or at least one, of its agents would visit that heathen spot, --, near --, in the -- district, but alas! no ray of Gospel light has ever penetrated that dark corner of India, except once for the last five years, when a Bishop gave a sermon in the neighbourhood. There are a number of planters in the tea-gardens, and it seems a dreadful thing that so many English young men are led to spend the Sabbath in sports, revel­lings, etc., as there is no assemblage of Christians near."

ANOTHER LADY sends a sovereign, and makes it better than gold by "many prayers." Besides," she gives with much pleasure, and would so thankfully give more if she had it in her power. " 'What a contrast to those who begin to make excuses and give nothing, though professing Christians, and possessing plenty! The, names of some such are known here, and everyone is known to Him to whom they owe their all.

A GENTLEMAN in London sends two guineas; but, as a good steward, reads the last Report to make sure of giving to what deserves renewed support. He writes, " The Report is very good, and makes out an unanswerable case for tI~e need of such a Society."

A CHEERFUL GIVER in former years through the late Colonel Foquett writes :­"I enclose £2 with thankful pleasure for the Anglo-India.n Society, with special interest for Assam Tea Gardens."

MANY MEETINGS have been held during the year from Bristol and Bromley in the south, to Braemar and Strathpeffer in the north; but only a few can be referred to :- ,

STRATHPEFFER..-Here a meeting was held, and the only one in which I had no part. It was arranged and addressed by our worthy Honorary Secretary, the Rev. John Ma.theson, who not only secured a; good collection, but enlisted new collectors-one of them for Tamworth in England.

BRAEMAR had its first meeting in Victoria Hall, with General J. G. Touch presiding.· It was pleasant to me to be for two or three days among the mounta.ins- a Chota Simla.

PLAISTOW LODGE, Bromley, Kent, is a place of precious memories. There in September last the late Dowager ~ady Kinnaird, with the hearty help of the Hon. Misses Kinnaird, arra.nged for a drawing-room meeting, when her ladyship was too ill to be present. The Society had in her a warm and intelligent friend,­u:n,Q.erstanding .India's needs, as few do who have never been there. Her zeal originated the Bromley Association from which we received in 1888 £25, 48. 9d.

C

18 A. nglo-I ndian Evangelisation Society.

BRISTOL has been for years the most generous of the English associations. This Society's place in the interest of Ohristians there may be traced to the efforts of the late Miss Lawrence, sister of the late Lord Lawrence, whose work has been continued by her niece Miss C. C. Bernard. For the last three years we ha.ve been grea.tly indebted to Mrs Firth of Leighside, Leigh Woods, who has opened her gates, and her house, for annual meetings, held, when the weather was good, in her garden.

Many other places and hearty helpers might be named from Southampton to Inverness; bnt the need of brevity forbids. In 1888 a number of our Lady Collectors were married, both in England and Scotland. I am not at all surprised at this. Their new names cannot be given; but I may add that some of them continue to collect, and others may take up the work in new spheres.

It is a remarkable fact that of our many Oollectors only one has died all these years,-Miss Miller, an elderly lady, at Sunderland. She was a volunteer, and at first sent what she collected to Dr Duff. For fourteen years she collected till health began to fail. Her subscribers have ceased to give. Will any lady at Sunderland volunteer? A book, and the old list of givers, would be sent.

VOLUNTEERS are wanted for many places from which no help comes. We have a few in Britain., and one in Ireland. I have had invitations from Dublin and Belfast; but I have not been able to go. Ireland sends only £17, 4s. 6d. ; but it has never been visited on behalf of the Society. I am assured that there are many, especially in Ulster, who are deeply interested in the spiritual welfare of our countrymen in India. If any friends can send their addresses, appeals might be sent, and the way prepared for a tour in Ireland.

Much travelling costs time, strength, and money. Spontaneous contributions have an enhanced value to the Society.

GLIMPSES OF EVANGELISTIC WORK IN INDIA.

THOUGH the agents be few the field is vast, and the work done in a year is so great and varied that a full record of it would fill volumes. Monthly reports are sent to the Secretary telling of travels, services, and personal visitations. Only a part can be reported, but enough to tell of zeal, hard work, and no little success. Here only a few glimpses can be given, leaving much to the imagination of the reader.

THE REV. ISAAC F. Row.

MR Row did much work in Southern and Western India; but his tours among the tea planters of Assam. claim special attention. Among these Mr R. says that he met not a few "who before coming here were professing Ohristians and workers at home, but have succumbed to the deadening influences of Assam life." He need not wonder at this, considering how they have been neglected by the churches; but he does wonder that some who have been on a visit home, and have godly parents "have not come back converted." He adds, "0, what a bless­ing it would be to the country to have a good sprinkling of those who would stand boldly and firmly for righteousness." Whilst mourning over the result of past neglect, MrR. writes: "It is a matter of real thankfulness that a minister coming here as 8uch is most kindly and courteously received, with scarcely an exception­and the Word of the Lord is listened to with apparent attention."

Mr R. tells of visiting Mr and Mrs M-- from Glasgow. " Their place is very isolated, their nearest neighbour 9 miles away, and the next 15 miles. I don't think any minister has ever been through this district before; and even govern­ment officials are very seldom known to come this way, as part of the road leading to the estate is much infested by wild animals. I felt some hesitation about coming this way alone, but as Mr and Mrs M. were anxious to have me come, and the district is so thoroughly destitute spiritually, I felt it my duty to come if possible, and now I am very glad that I did so."

At a service Mr R. had fonr hearers, two of them young men who came 9 and 15 miles.

Anglo-Indian Evangelisation Society. 19

Messrs Mackinnon, Mackenzie, & Co. are generous coutributors to the funds. Mr R. reports visiting all their gardens in the N owgong district, and having a very kind reception.

Mr R. tells of dangerous rides on difficult horses in jungly districts. In one case the horse darted off when mounted. His rider was dashed against a jagged bamboo, but happily escaped with only a torn coat. Mr R, when meeting dangers and difficulties wrote, urging the Master's plan of sending evangelists two and two; but alas, the means cannot be fonnd for sending singly where messengers are needed.

At one place Mr R. had services. Two had died who attended last year,-two out of ten.

One gentleman was looking out eagerly for Mr Row, having got a blessing through his preaching a year before. After prayer a relative who was present said: "It is the first prayer that I have heard in ten years."

In 1888 there were several cases of most hopoful conversion, but in type a prudent reserve is necessary as to names of places and persons.

Two of our old neighbours at Simla, the Chief Commissioner and the Surgeon­General, showed kindness to Mr Row at Shillong, where he had a series of meetings.

Mr Row left Assam in May, and soon a.fter resumed Evangelistic work in Southern India. In June he combined with this the duties of Secretary in India; and towards the end of the year removed to Poona to take up a large district that had become vacant after the resignation of the Rev. H. G. E. St Dalmas.

MR FREDERIC NICHOLSON,

WHO now resides at Chunar, has done good work there and at other stations on the East Indian Railway, and elsewhere. He appears to have a gift for dealing with men-one by one-as well as for conducting meetings. He tells of personal blessing to some. Here is an example: "I had a visit from a soldier belonging to the East Surrey Regiment. His name is Cooper, and his father is a member of Mr Spurgeon's congregation. He became a new man through the meetings at Chnnar. This is the second convert in that regiment. C. came and stayed a few days with me on a pass. He said it helped and strengthened him."

Mr N. refers to several railway stations. At one of these he writes of the Lord's Day, "the people tell me that there is nothing to distinguish that day from any other."

The work at Chunar seems to be full of interest. Mr N. says, "I have the assistance of a Christian who has come to live at Chunar, which enables me to go to other places, when he works here."

THE REV. G. W OXBOROUGH.

MR OXBOROUGH, who is now in Assam, was all last year in the large district to which he first went in the North West Provinces and Upper Bengal. The Sunday School at Goruckpore flourished under the care of Mrs Izat. " Some Roman Catholics," says Mr Oxborough, "come to my services, and Roman Catholic children came to the Sabbath School, but the priest has censured them from attending, and they are withdrawn. 0' Blind leaders wish to keep their followers blind.

Of one place, he says, "I seem to be the only one who has ever preached the gospel here." Of another, less neglected, he says, "I hope to help a railway Christian man who has a Sunday School. "

At another station, where Mr O.'s work was for a time difficult and disconrag­ing, he tells of growing interest and evident blessing. He reports the case of one who had been a soldier, and is now a railway man. "He had been a professing Christian in Calcutta, but he went with his regiment to a distant part of India, where he had no spiritual advanta.ges. He soon began to backslide, and had been miserable for years.'o One evening, after relating the story of his wayward life; he told "that he had dropt in at my service the previous week, when I was

preaching from the text, 'When I see the blood, I will pass over you;' that he had been led through that seryi?~ to. return to .God, an~ find forgiveness a~d cleansing' and that he was reJoIcmg m the SaVIOur agam. I shall not easily forget his 'happy face which the week b~fore was most miserable."

Mr O. reports very gratefully the untiring efforts of the teachers at different Sunday Schools which he has opened during the last two years.

MI' O. tells of a service on a ferry steamer, and says, II It was something new to the natives to see 11S singing, praying, and preaching on the deck of the ferry­boat on the Ganges, and the skipper on his knees pleading with God to save the souls of his men."

Colportage is a most important branch of Christian work in India, and should be vastly extended, both for Europeans and Natives. The diffusion of Christian literature was one of the definite objects of the Society from 1870 to 1880; and during that decade not a little fruitful work was done. Somehow it was struck out from the definite objects of the Society; but incidentally the agents have done more or less for diffusing the gospel by Bibles, tracts, and evangelical books. Through the generosity of the Rev. F. H. Baring (SOIl of the late Bishop of Dur­ham), Mr Oxborough has had a colporteur under his direction at no cost to the A.-I. E. Society. He reports good success in the sale of Bibles, prayer books, hymn books, tracts, etc., etc. It would be well if a colporteur were placed under the superintendence of each of the Society's evangelists. Mr O. writes: "Railway people bought many of these books, which they would not have done if they had not been taken to their doors for sale."

THE REV. O. W CHRISTIAN.

THE health of the evangelists ~. been remarkably good notwithstanding great heat and hard work. Mr Christian has suffered from a throat affection and otherwise. but not so as to interrupt his work much.

At Whitefield Colony there appears to be much interest, old aud young attend­ing services, and on week days giving up work in order to be present. Mr C. has been cheered by most, but some sit in the scorner's chair.

At one of the railway stations Satan has been busy, and too successful; but a few" confess Christ boldly, and try to bring others to God."

As a specimen of a month's work Mr C. states as to November: "I have been out in my district nineteen days, and have travelled over 1578 miles." He adds: "1 believe that the truth is leavening the little communities at the different stations; and things are not as they were more than two years ago, when I was permitted to go out as an evangelist on the Madras Railway."

REV. H. RYLANDS BROWN.

ME BROWN'S work for four months is chiefly among tea planters, but he visits a few' places on the railways also.

" At G. our host seemed as if he could not do enough to assure us that we were welcome." Again," we," for Mrs Brown is sometimes with her husband "visited a' plantation where our host and hostess were children of clergymen at home. " The planters are .very hospitable, like their brethren of Assam. When on the borders of Sikkim Mr B. says: "Here two planters met ns with tiffin (lunch), having travelled five miles to do so. We Can but pray that our growmg friendship with these gentlemen will be sanctified to their spiritual -good. Some six miles brought us to the old fashioned bungalow of Mr M. 'Our host' of the previous day accompanied us, so that we were five at dinner and worship at which we ~vere able to raise a. song.of praise." T~e following Sunday Mr Brdwn had a servIce at the Government Cinchona plantatIOn, "far from Darjeeling and seldom visited." Seven assembled-all that could be present. '

Soon after Mr B. visited a planter, which was evidently seasonable and useful. At a railway station, Mr B. writes: "I aim at visiting here two or three times in the course of the year, because evangelistic work· is mnch needed, and I always

find an open door. The room of the Institute was full for an afternoon service on Sunday; and in the evening at the Brahmo Somaj meeting house I preached to those gathered for their usual service."

At Pubna Mr and Mrs Brown were the guests of the magistrate and collector, Mr Glazier, "a liberal supporter of the Society and of all good work. Here on Saturday I visited the Government School, and addressed the boys. Early on Sabbath morning I spoke to a crowded meeting of English-speaking Babus in the Town Hall, subject, 'The Influence of the Bible on Character.' This meeting has been followed by nearly thirty applications for Bibles, which I am enabled to cir­culate by the Society for the free circulation of the Scriptures. In the evening service was held in the house of our host, attended by all ,the Europeans in the station, and the civil surgeon and'his wife, who are Bengali Christians. We left Pubna on Monday morning, carrying away many pleasant memories."

Mr B. tells of T. where fifteen were present at a service. "T. is seldom or never visited by any minister except myself."

At another place twenty were present at the Sunday service. " The only other services held here are conducted by a Ritualistic clergyman, whose chief aim, so far as I could gather from the people, seems to be to impress them with the importance of taking early communion fasting."

December 31st.-" I went to G. and distributed tracts and pamphlets among those employed on the steamers and flats that ply on the Brahmaputru. Thus closed 1888."

THE REV. FAWCETT SHAW.

MR SHAW'S work has been chiefly between Bombay and Ajmere. He has been working vigorously all the year round, and sometimes when the heat has been 106 degs. fahr. in the railway carriages. He tells of many personal dealings with individuals that cannot be published. The results in some cases are hopeful. Here is a public matter, and the words of a native on a subject lately discussed in Exeter Hall and the House of Commons :-" On 7th June we organised (at Baroda) a branch of the Indian Temperance Society, of which I am president. At our first meeting we had native gentlemen present, one of whom asked per­mission to speak. He said that he was sorry that the vice of intemperance was rapidly spreading among the Hindoos. The younger men, he said, have an unfortunate habit of imitation, and in their schools, and colleges, and offices they see the English have the use of intoxicants, and they seem to be the better for taking them. They are more jovial, more friendly, and they say that it helps them in their work, and the foolish Hindoos leam to take their pegs from their English schoolmates and fellow-workers. He said he did not blame the English, as the Hindoos should know better than to take a leap without looking well."

This is very generous of the native gentleman in reference to the English, but we must join Mr Shaw, not only in lamentation, but in effort, that the reproach that rests on our countrymen may be wiped away.

The same month Mr Shaw tells of one convert growing evidently in grace; and of a husband and wife gradually coming into clear light and beginning family worship. He tells also of one of the clan llf'Gregor. The name is given, as what follows ,may comfort Bome in sorrow. ," He was the permanent way inspector and platelayer, and his was a most hopeful case. He attended the services regularly, and spoke to me on spiritual things. I regularly gave him papers and books. . Although only recently from Scotland, he proved that a European could live in India without taking spirits. He was a hearty healthy man, when a terrible disease laid him low. He died of cholera at Sabarruatti within twelve hours of taking ill." Mr Shaw writes: "I trust he is now with Jesus."

Here is a contrast to work at home that may touch the hearts of Sunday School teachers. Abu Road is a station that has been benefited by our Society; but opposition has arisen from a quarter suggestive of the need of much prayer; and h~lpers are few~ Mr Shaw writes: "At Abu Road w~ are losing our Sunday School teacher, Mrs S--, who has been a great help to me therefor nearly two years. She kept up the Sunday School, and visited among the people. Now the school must be, dispersed, as I cannot find another teacher. I will, however, conduct a class for reli~ous instruction on Sunday mornings when there. "

22 .A. nglo-Indian Evangelisation Society.

Many chapters of lamentations might be written about Romanism and semi­Romanism in India. Here are three suggestive verses:-

"1. :At B. the Cowley Fathers and Roman Catholics oppose our work. "2. Mr Page, a Cowley Father of St John's Mission, Mazagon (Bombay), visits

here of late once a month, preaches, administers the Communion, and hears con­fessions.

"3. Since then the people will not receive tracts, nor do they care about my visits."

Here is a happy contrast at W adhwan: "The services here are very encourag­ing. Nearly all the residents attend them, and the gentleman with whom I have been staying has become so interested in them, that he has consented to conduct services every Sunday evening in my absence. His wife seems to be an earnest Christian, and has exercised a most beneficial influence ever since she came here."

THE REV. JAMES SHAW.

IN former years Sukkur in Scinde was Mr Shaw's centre, and he did much good work along the railway lines from Kurrachi to the frontier, and beyond it. Last year in June his removal to Quetta was sanctioned for an experiment in combin­ing work among troops who had no chaplain, with work along the lines of railway. If the work among the troops be too absorbing, the plan may have to be given up. Meanwhile, a few glimpses may be given of the evangelist on duty.

Mr Shaw reports several intensely interesting cases of personal influence by private cou versation with parties of superior intelligence. He adds: "These may not be suitable for a report, but I mention them that it may be seen how in lonely and out of the way places where the Society's agents go, they succeed in filling the place of friend and guide to many."

It may awaken interest in those who bear the burden of difficult work in the heat of Indian days to read his report :-" Every station in this wide and sparsely peopled district has been visited except Mooltan. The months of May and June were very hot, the registered temperature reaching at some points 123 degs. fahr. in the shade, in consequence of which the weekly lectures to educated natives were suspended till cooler days would come."

The following touching story is very suggestive to many, and may be a comfort to some. "While at Sibi I visited a man who had come in sick from the frontier somewhere. I found him in all respects superior to the position he held. The poor fellow, whose name was MCMurphy, was, I could see, very ill indeed. He seemed to feel the little kindness I could show him very deeply, and opening his heart to me, told me of his having held good appointments in India as a literary man; of his aged father, still living in Scotland, and for many years an elder in the Scotch Church, who, at the age of 70 years, had come to India to see his son, and had then returned to Britain. We spoke too of his sainted mother, who has for many years been before the throne of God. When I knelt and prayed with him that he too might be there, and find rest and peace in Jesus now, he com­pletely broke down, and wept like a child, and in leaving him he grasped my hand warmly and thanked me. Feeling sure that he would not live long 1 urged him to come with me to Sukkur, where he would have good medical advice and more comfort, offering to travel with him, and care for him by the way, but he would not consent. He has since died. I mention this case, as it- shows how the Society's agents are often at hand at such extreme moments to dir(>ct the depart. ing soul to Jesus, which otherwise must have passed away in an out-of-the-wa.y place without a word of cheer; while it may also bring comfort to some one at home." *

THE REV. A. G. FRASER, D.D.

A LETTER from Dr Fraser has just come in time to give a glimpse of his gratuitous services in connection with the Society. The letter is long, and full of facts and appeals so important, that it must be printed sepa1:'lltely.

it If any I'eader knows the address of the noble father, he would oblige by sending .it to ths General Secretary.

Anglo-Indian Evangelisation Society. 23

The doctor's gifted son, A. H. L. Fraser, Esq., C.S., is now Commissioner of Chattisgarh Division of the Central Provinces. Since going to Raipur, father and son have had. Sabbath services when there; and services have been held at other stations where there are European residents. These are regarded as in connection with the A. 1. E. Society. Dr F. writes: "This is the only English service held here (Raipur) for the preaching of the Gospel. All who attend, natives as well as Europeans, are greatly interested in it. I t opens the door for much conversation with the natives on the claims of Christ, and on his teaching. "

After referring to services by himself and the Commissioner at Bilaspur, Sumbul­pore, etc., Dr F. writes: "I mention the attendance of the English-speaking natives, that your Society may know that their agents reach the more intelligent natives as well as Europeans. These English-speaking natives do not attend the vernacular services of the missionaries; and so they are only reached by your Society. They have a great influence among their fellow-countrymen; and it is most important that the Gospel should reach them. I wish you would dwell much on this fact in your appeals to the churches at home. I regard it as very important." . "There ought to be now two (evangelists) for the Bengal Nagpur Railway, and two for the district portions of this great division of Chattisgarh. That is the least number that could work with any effect in this division. 0 that the Society had any just conception of the extensive spiritual destitution of this division alone; and it is almost as great in other portions of the Central Provinces."

Dr Fraser heartily approves of the plan of sending out young men; but he asks: " Will this plan be carried out into action, or only talked about? The Society ought to have fifty such agents in India to·day." . "Your Society must remove this deplorable destitution, or it will continue to the eternal loss of myriads of souls. "

Writing of Sim,la, which Dr Fraser has repeatedly visited, he refers to the large Christian Society there last season, naming Sir Charles Aitchison and others. He says-" Lord and Lady Dufferin exercised a very direct and successful influence in favour of social morality and religion. •. The moral and Christian atmosphere under the influence of Lord and Lady Dufferin was not only better than it had been, but was very positively wholesome."

NOTES AND SUGGESTIONS.

1. The Indian lists are printed as seut. In some cases the names are without any designation, but the donors will excuse. It would be well if in all lists, at home or India, designations were given as Rev., Esq., Mrs, or Miss, etc.

2. Several gentlemen are personal donors in London and Glasgow, and their firms contribute also in India. They will not be losers by doing what they can for the country where the Lord has prospered them.

3. A few donations being for an incidental purpose are not entered in the general account. 'Most of the guests at the Re·union in Exeter Hall paid for their breakfast; but the following dona­tions enabled the Secretary to send free cards to Missionaries, Reporters, and Delegates to the Missionary· Conference from abroad, and 8olso to pay for printing, postages, and other incidenal expenses :-SirWilliam Muir, £2, 2s. ; The Lord Kinnard, £1, Is. ; Sir William Mackenzie, £1 ; General Sir Robert Phayre, £1, Is. ; General Touch, £1; H.

MEMORANDA.

I.--.:..TnE ANNUAL REPORT is se~tdirectly by post to Subscribers whose addresses are in the hands of the Secretary. To others copies will be sent through

..c-jiocal_Se~reta.~ies,- .Trea8~rs, or Collectors. -

II. -A SPECIA-L ~ APER will be issued 38 usual in summer, with recent intelli­gence. Extra copies will- be se~t to Collectors and others who apply for them. From the brevity of the paper it will be more suitable than the Reportfor enliBting new contributors. ,

III.-D.ONATION~ OR -SUSSCRIPTIONS will be thankfully received by any of the Treasurers .or Collectors; by the Honorary -Treasurer, Colonel J OBN ROBERTSON~ C.I.E., 65 Kensington Gardens Square, Bayswater, London, W. j or by the Rev. J. FORDYCE, Simla, 124 Kensington Park Roail, Notting Hill, London, w:

V.-LETTERS TO MR FORDYCE sent to 7 Adam Street, Strand, London, W.C., 01'

to 5 St Andrew Square, Edinburgh, will reach him; .... , t the most direct address will be as above. Cheques, Money-Orders, aL 1 Postal Orders should be Crossed & 00.

V . ..,-OOLLECTING .BOOKS and CARDS will be supplied by the Secretary, or by Mr W INTERSGILL at the r .ondon Office, or Mr STA. VERT in E~inl;)Urgh.

VI,,-CONTRIBUTIONS may be paid into the, Society'S account in the Commercial Bank, Edinburgh, or to Messrs Barclay, Ransom, & Co., 1 Pall Mall East, London. The Treasurer when advised of such payments, w~ll send receipts.

VIL:.-WE are deeply indebted to the Local Treasurers and the Lady Collectors. The work of these Ladies is often a difficult one. Some have persevered' for fifteen years, and others have only just entered on t~is !lart of the King's serVice. Let none be discouraged. They are taking an important part in a much needed· work, for which we need tens or twenties to go, hundreds to gather, and many thousands to give. "Let us not be weary in well-doing; for in due season we shall reap, if we fa~t not. II

VIII.-IT was not possible to qlose Accounts for 1888 on the 31st of December. It would be a real favour if Donors and Treasurers could send remittances at an early date. Then the Annual Meeting could be held and the Report issued earlier in 1890.

* * * Attention is specially requested to the change in the General Secretary's address-Memo. III. For Telegrams his address will be FORDYCE, LONDON .
