THE TWENTIETH ANNUAL REPORT
The Board of Home MiBsions respectfully presents to the General
Assembly its eighty-eighth annual report — ^its twentieth since re-
union.
We record onr humble and earnest thauks to God for His gra-
cious exemption of the Board from the loss of any member or officer
by death, and for His manifest guidance and blessing in the enlarge-
ment and general prosperity of its work during the year. Our
gratitude is also due for the harmony and zeal which have marked
the proceedings of the Board, and for the general approbation its
work has receiyed from the great constituency which it represents
and serves. The steady general increase of the Board's income
may be fairly taken as a most gratifying and enoouragiug vote of
confidence in the Board as the Church's tried and trusted agency
in the work of home evangelization, and also as an uumistakable
proof of the unchaDgeable purpose of the intelligent and powerful
body of American Christians who stand behind it to prosecute this
sacred enterprise with unremitting energy until the great and glo-
rious results it contemplates shall be fully achieved. The Presby-
terian Church in the United States of America, in kindly emulation
with sister evangelical churches, is bent on doing a generously-
computed share of the great work of making God's law and gospel
the pervading and dominant influences which mould and control
the republic ; and the Board of Home Missions is the strong right
hand with which it means, under God, to do the work.

A VERY GOOD YEAR.
The year's work, on the whole, has been attended by marked and
manifest prosperity. As in most years, it has encountered serious
obstacles. Floods in Western Oregon, so great as to hinder for
weeks the transmission of the mails, have made anything like con-
tinuous church services in many places impossible. Unusually
heavy snow-falls in the ISTorthwest and about many of the mountain
regions and passes have embarrassed religious as well as material
interests. Some five thousand persons are said to have been on the
verge of actual famine in North Dakota ; and churches and mis-
sionaries have had their share of the pinch and pressure. Some of
the older States have suffered additional losses by removals. The
rush into Oklahoma almost effaced some, and sadly weakened many
more, of our churches in the southern tier of Kansas. The wide-
spread failure of the vine in California has reduced whole com-
munities to comparative poverty. Three churches in one pres-
bytery, which had reached self-support, were forced back upon the
aid of the Board, one of them losing sixty members by removal.
And yet the great work of home evangelization and church exten-
sion has steadily widened and strengthened and gained ground.
One hundred and nine more missionaries have been employed than
in any previous year. In a large part of the country the unusually
mild and open winter has permitted and facilitated continuous
maintenance of church services, which has greatly furthered both
the temporal and the spiritual interests of the congregations. There

has been in many places more than usnal evangelistic activity, often
with large resultant increase. There has been a deepening of the
impression already long prevalent among the people, that a prop-
erly-foQnded and wisely-organized Presbyterian church is both a
beneficent and a permanent institution. The work has not lacked
the Divine benediction. The gracious Spirit of God has in many
places turned the wilderness into a fruitful field. The churches
aided by the Board have received 9,795 on confession of faith,
and 7,091 by certificate; 16,886 communicants in all. 200
churches, and 578 Sunday-schools have been organized, and 30
churches have assumed self-support, often with emphatic and grate-
f nl acknowledgment of the fostering care which has lifted them to
independence.
THE THIRD CORRESPONDING SECRETARY.
The Board has unanimously elected as its third Secretary the
Rev. Duncan J. McMillan, D.D., President of the College of Mon-
tana. To the great satisfaction of the members and officers of the
Board, he has accepted the post, and already entered on his work.
Dr. McMillan was the Board's pioneer missionary to the Mormons.
Under his management the College of Montana has attained a front
rank among the younger educational institutions of our Church.
He will bring to the Board's service the prime of his powers and a
large and special experience.
OUR MISSIONARIES.
The missionaries aided by the Board during the year number
1,701. They have served some 4,000 churches and stations.
They constitute a noble brigade of soldiers of the cross. A large
proportion of them are men of marked capabilities and fine equip-
ment for their sacred calling, and as a body their devotion and
fidelity are beyond all possible earthly appreciation and reward.
Their wives, and often their sons and daughters as well, are their
worthy and wilUng helpers. Their aggressive activity is at least
equalled by their patient endurance. They would be the last to
desire that the harder phases of their experience should be over-
Digitized by VjtOOQIC
6 ANNUAL BBPOBT OF THE [1890.
stated in this report ; but it accords with simple fairness and sober
truth to say that the pinch and stress they not infrequently feel
when remittances from the drained treaisury of the Board are in-
evitably withheld for weeks after they are due, should be borne in
mind, as urgent arguments for increased contribotionB from the
Church at large.
But praise of our missionaries goes without saying. The avail-
able space in this report may be better employed in urging the
increase of their number. The great need of the hour is more men
for the work. It is as true to-day as it was when the Master said
it, that " the laborers are few." Their number, indeed, steadily
increases, but the work grows far faster. If one-third of the eight
hundred students or so in our thirteen theological seminaries become
ministers this spring, the Presbyterian Church will put into the
work this year one for each three thousand communicants. Some
in addition to these are obtained from other Christian communions.
But the entire supply is sadly behind the demand. Calls outnumber
candidates. The field widens more rapidly than the tilling and
reaping.
13ie Board respectfully asks the Church seriously to consider the
causes of this shortcoming. Who is to blame for it ? The fault
must be within the Church itself. There are yoang men enough.
They crowd into every other calling; And the young men them-
selves are not alone to blame. Pastors do not ply and urge them
as constantly and earnestly as they might with the claims of this
sacred service. Parents too often allow or encourage their sons to
leave the ministry out of the question in their choice of a life-
work. There are many large, strong, prosperous congregations,
especially in the great cities, which year after year furnish not a
single candidate for the pulpit out of their hundreds of bright and
noble youth. How can the Church consistently deplore the lack of
ministers and missionaries when it fails to lay holy hands on its own
children for this high calling ? If, out of the army of strong and
capable youth who graduate every year into active life from Pres-
byterian families, even a single thousand should each year be led by
human persuasion and Divine guidance to enter the ministry, who
would venture to say that this is in excess of that " living sacri-

fice *' which the Church is called to lay on her Redeemer's altar ?
The generons congregations thus devoting their best and brightest
would be enriched by their own depletion, and thrive afresh spirit-
ually by the healthful stir of this sacred emigration. The noble
offering would inspire the whole Church with a new and heavenly
ambition, and win the enriching benediction of God.
FINANCES.
The year opened with a debt of $33,337.89. Home Missions
proper had a balance in its favor of $4,236.08, while the account of
Teachers and Chapels, New York Synodical Aid Fund, and Susten-
tation had deficits respectively of $27,6 19.47, $9,829.02, and $165.48,
giving net defidt as above. The receipts of the first six months,
from all sources, showed an increase of $55,000, and those of the
first ten months an increase of $97,000, over the same months of
the previous year. But there was a falling off in February of
$11,000, and in March of $85,000, as compared with the year
before. Collections from congregations for Home Missions proper
show a falling off of $19,814 from last year. The total amoimt
contribnted to the Board from all sources during the year has been
$831,170.40; for current work, $809,094.61; for N. Y. Synodical
Aid Fund, $11,672.99 ; for permanent and trust funds, $4,700.00 ;
for sustentation department, $5,702.80. The Board closes the year
with a balance agamst it of $80,391.94. Of this, $13,021.27 is on
account of Teachers and Chapels, $28,551.33 on account of New
York Synodical Aid Fund, $38,819.34 on account of Home Missions
proper — that is, aid to churches in the support of ministers.
The General Assembly of 1887 asked for an income for the Board
of $800,000, and the Church gave only two per cent. less. The
Ajssembly of 1888 asked for $850,000. Once more the Board
received only about two per cent, less, or $832,647.56. The Assem-
bly of 1889 recommended an income of $875,000, or only five and
one-quarter per cent, advance on the receipts of the previous year.
So moderate a proposed advance it seemed reasonable to expect to
be realized. It is somewhat disappointing that the great Presby-
terian Church, having stood by the Board's work so staunchly for
Digitized by VjOOQIC
8 A.NNITAL BEPOBT OF THE [1890.
some years past, should this year fall so far short of the moderate
ratio of proposed increase, and the forecast of the General Assembly,
to say nothing of the fast-growing needs and the clamorous calls
from all quarters for new work. There has been no undue or hasty
expansion. The moderate increase in expenditure in the earlier
months seemed justified by the then increasing receipts. Since
then the Board has resolutely declined to inci'ease appropriations
whenever possible.
The only remedy for this shortcoming is a constant and general
effort to obtain contributions from all congregations and Sunday-
schools, and a patient cultivation of the gracious habit of Christian
giving, especially among the young. There is no more encouraging
sign for the future than the large amount and the rapid increase
of gifts to Home Missions from the young people of our con-
gregations in Sabbath-schools and societies; and this interest
should be fostered and expanded, as a sure guarantee for the next
generation.
The attention of the General Assembly and the Church, especially
the men of business who are interested in our work, is called to the
fact, as made plain in the experience of this and previous years, that
a large increase is desirable in the amount of invested funds which
the Board is authorized to use as collaterals for loans. During at
least the summer months of every year the Board's outgo so far
exceeds its income that large loans are absolutely necessary. The
full limit of the Board's credit was reached this last season, at a
time when further loans to a moderate amount and for a brief term
would have enabled the Treasurer to pay promptly many mission-
aries who had to wait for weeks. The collaterals now available for
loans for general work are only about $75,000, and those specially
available for woman's work not more than $7,000. An increase of
the funds thus available to doable the present amount would greatly
facilitate the work. When it is kept in mind that from April to
November, for several years past, beyond the Board's power to help
it, its outgo has exceeded its income by $1000 to $1500 every day,
it will be seen how desirable and vital is this increase of basis for
necessary loans.
The Treasurer's report will furnish all necessary financial details.

NONCONTBIBUTING CHURCHES.
Of the 6)727 churches reported to the last General Assembly,
1880, or about twenty-ei^ht per cent., made no contribution to the
Board of Home Missions. It would be natural enough to conolude
at first thought that these churches would be found in the list of
those aided by the Board as unable even to support themselves. It
should be known and noted, however, that the fact is jast the con-
trary. There is no one of its rules on which the Board more posi-
tively insists than the requirement of a Home Mission collection
from every church aided by its funds. A failure in this is always
noted, and the delinquent church is required to make the omission
good. However small the contribution may be in proportion to
the aid extended, it is none the less insisted on, and with hardly an
exception it is actually paid. The non-contributing churches, then,
whether weak or strong, are not the Home Mission churches. This
puts the case of these non-contributing churches in a new light, and
not a pleasant or creditable one. It is painfully unsatisfactory that
so large a number of congregations which can and do bear the
expense of their own church privileges should ht^^itually give
nothing to mission work at home, to say nothing of that abroad.
How to bring these churches to admit and perform their duty is a
problem which the Board has long sought in vain to solve, and to
which the Church at large should seriously address itself. The
remedies for the evil are doubtless to be found in various directions.
Every pastor and stated supply should make it his business to see
that this cause, whether popular or not, is annually presented to
and pressed on his people for their contributions. Elders and
deacons should fulfill their bounden duty as ordained church officers
to stand by their pastor and brace him up to the work, instead of
disheartening and hindering him by apathy or even positive dis-
couragement, as is no doubt often the case ; and they should be
especially forward in urging a collection when the pulpit is vacant,
and in securing prompt remittance of the proceeds, a point not
infrequently neglected. A stated clerk in a strong country presby-
tery some years ago, by a little urgent correspondence, prevaQed
on half-a4ozen negligent churches to fill half or two-thirds of the
previously vacant columns. An active and resolute elder in the
Digitized by VjOOQIC
10 AKKTTAL BBPOBT OF THB [1890.
Presbytery of Bochester a year or two since plied the delinquent
congregations with appeals antil all had given to this Board, except
two ; and, not succeeding with these, at the last minute he sent
contributions for them out of his own pocket, in anticipation of
their own action, and thus filled the Board's blanks that year. A
Home Mission committee that means business, or a single deter-
mined minister, could partially or wholly remedy this faidt in every
presbytery ; and there is hardly a non-giving congregation in which
there is not some one elder who might, if he would, secure at least
some small contribution to the Board, however indifferent or dis-
affected the people might be.
RAILROADS.
These constitute a stock topic in a Home Mission report. Eail-
roads sustain a relation to the country's development and history
which is unique and unparalleled. They are the nerves of the
Nation's life, the standard of its growth, the indices of the march
and move of its population. They push onward into regions where
emigration has preceded them ; or they lead the way by making
channels through which the living tide is sure to pour. Our im-
mense railway system is the growth of the last sixty years. There
were twenty-three miles in 1830. In 1861, when the civil war
broke out, there were 31,000 miles. In 1890 there are nearly
170,000 miles, or almost half the mileage of the world, and six times
as much as in Germany, whose railway mileage ranks next. The
largest annual increase has been 12,872 miles in 1887. The last
nine years have added at least 68,000 miles. The present season
promises greater activity in railway construction than has marked
any previous year. There are some five thousand miles in process
of construction, seven thousand miles surveyed or under survey,
and nearly three thousand miles so seriously projected and pushed,
that they will probably be either completed or fairly begun before
the close of the year— a total of nearly 15,000 miles. The larger
part of the construction of the last few years has been in the Cen-
tral West, Northwest and Southwest. The bulk of the pending
enterprises is in the South and Southwest, in Pennsylvania and Ohio,
and in Montana, Oregon and Washington. In the last two States

1890.] BOABD or HOMB MI88IONS. 11
three hundred miles were finished between Fehraary Ist and March
15th, and 1500 more are to be completed within two years. All
along the vast and rapidly growing extent of these prodigions rail-
way lines, especially in the newer regions, the natnral increase of
onr population, the immense multitudes of foreign immigrants, and
the swarms of restless seekers for better fortunes have been or will
be speedily distributed. The new settlements are at first generally
small and weak, and the people mostly poor. The settlers are, as a
rule, unable to provide and maintain religious privileges for them-
selves, and very largely also indisposed to make efforts or sacrifices
to secure them until their worldly circumstances are improved. If
the Gospel and the Church are to reach them with elevating and
saving infiuences in their formative period, they must have encour-
agement and pressure and material aid from without. The relig-
ious hope and opportunity of the new settlements of the land are
to be found alone in the steady and tireless pushing of the work of
Home Missions.
THE FIELD.
This report will not admit of anything like a complete sketch of
the whole vast field, but some large sections of it seem to call for
special notice and detail.
THE NOBTHWBBT.
The Synod of Columbia includes Oregon, Washington, Alaska,
and one presbytery in Idaho. It covers, without Alaska, 178,000
square miles. The region is of itself a broad and grand Home
Mission field, in which there are need and scope for ten-fold the
men and money as yet devoted to it. Washington is a young but
mighty State, with 250,000 people, and thousands pouring steadily
in. Gray's Harbor is one of the best harbors on the Pacific coast,
and is sure to attract commerce and population. We have already
an organized church at Aberdeen, near it, and there are other
important points on its shores. Puget Sound is a noble inland sea,
on whose shores great cities are growing up, and vast industries
rapidly developing. Port Townsend, whose great expectations
have tarried, may soon have the stimulus of a railway terminus.
Our church there has just entered its new edifice, and is prosper-

ing welL The land around DnngeneflB, near by, is Baid to raise one
hundred bnehels of wheat to the acre. Seattle is rising from its
ashes, and pushing toward the foremost plaoe on the Sound.
Taooma has had a marvellous growth of values and business, and
holds its own in the van of progress. It has a population of 30,000,
having trebled in five years. It has three live Presbyterian
churches, where there was but one eighteen months ago. The
Northern Pacific Railroad, already in operation from Tacoma to
Seattle, will soon be extended further northward to meet the
Canadian Pacific at Anacortes, on Fidalgo Island — a point already
occupied by an organized church and a missionary of the Board,
and whose prospective and not distant importance may be inferred
from its growth from eight buildings and two hundred people in
December last, to one hundred and fifty buildings, one hundred
tents, and more than two thousand population in March. Fidalgo
City, on a fine bay on the southeast of the island, is rapidly increas-
ing in population. It is at the head of the strait of San Juan de
Fuca, and separated from the mainland only by a creek. Yakima
to the south is the centre of a very fertile tract, which must fill
up rapidly. The Oneida Community has bought 170,000 acres
east of it for fifty cents per acre, which, when irrigated, will sell
up to $25 per acre. The section east of the Columbia is rajridly
opening up. Large transfers of land indicate a new influx of
population. Spokane Falls is being rebuilt with new ambition and
promise. In Pasco the railway authorities have made a liberal
offer for the founding of an academy, and there are signs of great
and rapid growth. Great tracts of this region, like the Walla Walla
valley in the southern part, though almost without rainfall, grow
the best varieties of wheat (" club " and " blue-stem "), without
irrigation, up to fifty bushels per acre, and will surely attract a
large agricultural population. The memories of Whitman and
Spaulding invite hereabouts the utmost missionary effort.
Oregon has a population of three hundred thousand, which is
fast increasing. Portland's suburbs have several struggling con-
gr^ations which will one day hold large places in the charch sys-
tem of a great city which will then overspread and include them
all, as the metropolis of the Northwest. The Presbyterian Alliance

IB reaching out from the cut's strong and prosperous centre to foster
these infant enterprises, and should do this still more freely, in co-
operation with the steady aid of the Board. Southwestern Oregon
is a wonderful fruit-growing region, equal as such to Northern
California, and will soon fill up with a large population. The rail-
roads are pushing through the mountain gaps to several fine harbors
on the coast, where in the near fature populous cities must stand*
The Union Pacific Bailway will soon reach tide water at Tilla-
mook. Coos City and Empire City have harbors with twenty fidet
of water. Oar Charch has kid extensive foundations, and already
supports a large number of devoted workmen in that fair region ;
but the work should be buttressed and broadened at once, and
prompt and generous outlay for this will surely bring a rich return.
Umatilla County, in northeastern Or^on, with its reservation for
the Indian tribe of that name, should soon have a school for this
and neighboring tribes on the quarter section recently granted by
government to the Board for that purpose. Union County adjoin-
ing, with its beautiful lake Walloma, has open fields which should
be soon and strongly occupied. Baker City, the county seat, should
be well manned and reinforced as a radiating centre. Prineville,
in Crook County, in the heart of the State, is an important and
inviting point. Indeed, the vast counties in all that broad and
splendid r^ion, many of them as large as some Eastern States, all
contain strategic points, which, if men and money were forthcom-
ing, could soon be impressed and controlled by Christian influences.
Idaho, whose rich resources have hardly yet been touched by tbe
hand of development, is on the verge of statehood. Post Falls
should have a Presbyterian church, and other places are within our
reach. This synod is calling for thirty new men.
Last year's report chronicled the admission to statehood of the two
Dakotas. The two cover 151,000 square miles between them, or
about the same area as Montana, the great Bocky Mountain State
then also admitted. Our Home Mission work in Dakota has been
almost entirely accomplished in the last dozen years. North Dakota
has about 250,000 people. The past year has been a very hard one.
From crop failures it has been reported that five thousand people

movalB have forced many changes of ministers. It has been almost
impossible to raise the people's part of salaries. Missionaries have
incurred great hardships and anxieties. In January, thirty-tliree
churches, or one-third of those in the three presbyteries, were
reported vacant. Some of these have but a nominal existence, but
many are important. The severe winters render this splendid region
less attractive than some otherwise far inferior. But these draw-
backs are but partial or temporary, and the work is going steadily
onward with promise of enlargement and suceess.
South Dakota has about 400,000 people. Oar missionaries have
done much hard and fruitful work. The last meeting of synod
reported the organization during the year of one presbytery, twenty-
one churches, and one hundred and twenty Sabbath-schools, the
addition of eight hundred members by confession of faith, and four
thousand two hundred children to Sabbath-schools, and the comple-
tion of nine church edifices and three manses. The Black Hills
Presbytery covers a fine stock and farming region. Eight churches
have been organized there during the year, and contributions and
membership have been more than doubled. A dozen men are
wanted for vacancies and new work. The recent opening of the
Sioux reservation will invite a large influx of white population,
besides giving the right of suffrage to five thqusand Indians. It is
said that by the next presidential election there will be twenty
thousand Indian voters in the land ; a strong argument for pressing
school and mission work among them.
The vast and rich expanse of the young State of Montana affords
a noble field fo>r Home Mission work. Good beginnings have been
made, and many important points strongly occupied ; but laborers
and stations should be speedily multiplied. There will be a re-
newed survey of the field this year, and the most vigorous efforts
possible with the means at the Board's command to expand and
speed the work. The force there of about a score of ministers
should be doobled this year. Choteau , Barker, Castle, Neihart, Phil-
brook and Lewistown are points which demand immediate attention.

The Synod of the Pacific includes California and Nevada. The

evangeliBtic work, though peraiBtentlj preeaed, finds but limited
encoaragement and success. We have an unoccupied church and
manse at Eureka, which should be manned. The State needs four
or five men. In California the work of Home Missions, grandly
successful in recent years, is retarded by some special drawbacks.
The three hundred Presbyterian churches, with an average of little
more than sixty members each, are mostly poor and dependent, and
just now largely and specially depressed by financial embarraes-
ment. The vast wealth of the State is mostly as yet not tributary
to the Kingdom of Christ. The colossal fortunes which have been
piled up around the Gh>lden Gate are not yet tithed for Christian
enterprises. An earnest effort has been made during the past
winter to widen and complete the now meagre equipment and en-
dowment of the Presbyterian Theological Seminary in San Fran*
Cisco— the success of which would greatly tend to the furtherance
of Home Missions on that coast, by providing what is probably the
most pressing need of the work in that r^ion to-day, a larger supply
of trained and able ministers. One gentleman offered a most
advantageous site in a beautiful suburb of San Francisco, and
another subscribed $250,000 for additional endowment, on con-
dition that $50,000 should be raised outside. It is probably safe
to say that if this aid from abroad could be obtained, the $300,000
of endowment thus secured to the Seminary, with its new site and
buildings, would raise it to such dignity and prestige as to inspire
new appreciation and confidence, and command large benefekctions
in its own neighborhood, putting it beyond any further need of
Eastern help. The trained ministers who would then be supplied
to the churches which now find it next to impossible to get them,
would lift weak congregations speedily to self-support; and the
Board of Home Miasions would thus be largely relieved both of
the care of churches which it has long aided, and of the costly
necessity of sending ministers across the continent, if they can be
obtained at all.
Texas is an empire in itself. It would cover almost six New
Yorks. Most of its vast area is as fertile as a garden. It could
sustain the whole population of the Union, and grow cotton enough
for all the world. Its development of late years has been marvel-

lou8. Millions of acree of its prairie^ but lately empty and bare,
are now dotted with thrifty homes and rich with teeming harvests.
No less remarkable has been its improvement in order and morality
and religion. Oar own Synod of Texas, which ten years ago was
so feeble and discouraged that the General Assembly debated the
expediency of abandoning the field, has since more than doubled
its membership, and is pushing its difficult work with admirable
patience and courage. Our strong and zealous synodical mission-
ary should have his heart cheered by the speedy doubling of the
thirty home missionaries now in that field. Much has been hoped
from cooperation with tbe Southern Church, as arranged by the
two Assemblies. The experiment has hardly been long enough
tried to show whether or not it will serve the great ends of fra-
ternity and economy.
Arizona is ahard and trying field. Population is sparse. Iniquity
and indifference abound. Living is high, and mission work costly.
And yet it will be agreed that though obstacles are great and suc-
cess is slow and small, earnest evangelistic effort should not be
withheld from a region where, it is said, whole settlements have
had no gospel ordinances within hundreds of miles for a dozen
years. Arizona and New Mexico have just been included in the
new Synod of New Mexico. In the latter Territory the evangelis-
tic problem is to transform into American Christians the Indians
and Mexicans who now form the large majority of the people. The
most effective and promising part of the work done to this end is
in our Indian and Mexican schools, further noticed under woman's
work. Some of our missionaries and evangelists, however, both
American and Mexican, have labored with great zeal and large
success. Bev. James Frazer, until lately in charge of a wide field
near Las Yegas, has reported the accession of one hundred and nine
Mexicans by confession of faith during his last year of labor.
Last year's report called for ten men for Oklahoma, now just
one year old, and already almost entirely occupied by a large popu-
lation. Congress has so recently passed the legislation necessary
for its organization, that titles, values and business are not yet fully
settled ; but the Board has six men already appointed and at work
at Guthrie, Oklahoma City, Edmond, Norman, Kingfisher and

Eeno, and one or two more may be added. Church boildingB
have been finished and occnpied at Kingfisher and Oklahoma City,
and others will be erected before long. The '^ Cherokee strip " or
'^ ontlet," between Indian Territory and Kansas, some sixty miles by
two or three hundred, will probably soon be opened and populated,
and form a new and large field for mission work.
THE MIDDLE WEST.
Jnst forty years ago the first Presbyterian church was organized
in Minnesota. To-day, in the twin cities of St. Paul and Minne-
apolis, with a joint population of over foar hundred thousand, and
fast growing together into one great metropolis, some forty points,
churches and stations, are held, and the two Presbyterian Alliances
are pushing church extension. The work of Home Missions in the
whole synod is healthful and advancing, notwithstanding the hin-
drances of severe drought and many removals. A score or more
of churches have been organized during the year. Here is con-
centrated a mighty mass of the foreign peoples whose evangelization
needs and demands the Church's utmost energy of effort. Of the
State's one and one-half millions of people, one-third — some say
more — are foreign-bom, and mostly foreign-speaking; and from
one-quarter to one-third of all the Scandinavians in the land are
here. Among Swedes and Norwegians and Bohemians work has
been begun, and will be pressed and extended as fast as men fit to
carry it on can be found;
Presbyterian interests in Wisconsin have relatively lost ground
for three years in comparison with those of some other denomina-
tions, for want of steady and watchful supervision. The first year's
work of a new synodical missionary has given them a fresh impulse.
Like Minnesota, it has a very large foreign element, probably two-
thirds of its popalation of one million and three-quarters, nearly
one-half being German. La Crosse, out of 32,000 people, has less
ftian one-fourth English-speaking. Milwaukee has two-thirds Ger-
man. It has one Holland church, but as yet no German. Two
German churches there are now proposed. A Get'man missionary
at large, and also a Norwegian, are wanted there at once, and when
found will be at once employed. New fields and calls for work
have been created by the large and rapid railroad extensions. The

Sault Bailroad has built five hundred and seyenty-five miles in
fifteen months, and our Chureh has as yet occupied none of it. In
two years the Lake Shore and Western has built three hundred
and fifty miles, and the Wisconsin Valley one hundred and fifty.
Oar Oongregationalist brethren have oi^nized twenty-two churches
in five years. The proper Presbyterian share of the work must be
pushed with speed and vigor, and will be, if the men and means are
forthcoming. We have eight Oerman churches in the State, and
should have many more. Twenty-two men are needed at once,
including three Bohemians, six Germans, and three Scandinavians.
Iowa has suffered very much from depletion by removals to
newer States, but our work there has been admirably managed and
vigorously pressed. The southwestern part is as fertile a region as
the Bun shines on.
Missouri has saffered through its two years' lack of a synodical
missionary. It has now a new and experienced superintendent,
who is seeking out the weak places, filling the gaps, and stirring up
church interests and enterprises in all the presbyteries. There is
room for more speed and pressure in the staunch and sturdy Pres-
byterian fellowship of that great State, and more may be looked
for before long. Thirty more men are urgently needed. There are
churches which might soon reach self-support if each could have
the entire attention of a pastor. Many congregations seem too
content to hold on to outside aid, and need to be aroused and in-
structed in the direction of self-help. The Board has a right to
demand vigorous cooperation from those whom it willingly assists.
Indifference and slackness among the people are among the chief
causes of stagnation and failure. A sister denomination, it is said,
has disbanded fifty-three churches in the State in the last five years.
Similar waste and defeat are not unknown in our own work here as
elsewhere. Our field is large and inviting. Palmyra Presbjtery
has a territory larger than New Jersey. In Platte Presbytery two
hundred and eighty miles of railroad were built last year. The
synod includes Arkansas, where our work is as yet limited. The
church at Hot Springs, long weak and discouraged, has had better
prospects of late under the good work of the Bev. Thomas Marshall,
and some new fields are proposed.

In EanBas, our ohoroh work has specially suffered by emigration.
The popnlation of the State, which was more than a million and a
half last year, is said this year to have lost 68,000, or three and one-
half per cent. This report has already referred to the serious,
sometimes rainons, losses in this way of oar churches along the
soathem line. There has been also partial failure of crops. And
yet it is said that the State added last year a million and a half of
acres to its tilled area, and has reached the first rank in the yield of
wheat and com. The snre result of this will be to increase both
the need and the promise of our church work, which during the
year has been persistently active and steadily saccessfal.
In Colorado few vacant fields are reported. The Mexican work
has been going on grandly, and the schools are full. A number of
elders have aided in a canvass of a part of the field, with a hcdpAil
and stimnlating effect, and there have been some revivals. Some
churches have reached self-support. A number of men are wanted.
Wyoming Is soon to be a State, and will need more laborers.
The work in the noble State of ]!f ebraska goes quietly and steadily
on, with constant if not brilliant progress. Our churches there
have more than doubled in the last nine years. Omaha is a strong
and well-manned Presbyterian centre. A Bohemian church has
just been organized there. In Lincoln, the capital, a second and
third enterprise are under way. Men are needed at a number of
points.
THB SOUTH.
Vast and rapid as is the development of the Northwest, that of
the South, in many parts at least, has of late been not far, if at
all, behind it. Northern capital and Northern skilled labor have
entered many sections together, and these have furnished openings
and fields, some of which our Church has entered with vigor and
success. Last year's report told of the beginning of our work in
northern Alabama. The new Presbytery of Birmingham is gain-
ing size and strength in spite of hindrances, the chief of which is
inveterate sectional prejudice. In Anniston and Sheffield and
New Decatur beautiful church buildings have been finished and
ooenpied, and solid pn^ress has been made. In Birmingham we
have a missionary, but no edifice, though the field is the largest
Digitized by VjOOQIC
20 ANNUAL BBPOBT OF THB [1890.
and perhaps the best of all. It is intended soon to organize and
baild at Thomas and at Ensley, snbnrbs of Birmingham. In
Tennessee the rural churches do not seem to gain much ground.
Poverty and prejudice and emigration hinder progress. The young
people have largely gone away. And yet these weak churches are
said to be furnishing more than theiv proportion of missionaries
and teachers, both male and female. An English company has
just bought a large mineral tract in East Tennessee, in which two
prospective towns have been already located, which will soon
assume importance, and which our Board has been urged to occupy
at once. In Kentucky the work is hard and slow, and yet is
steadily maintained. Florida has hardly recovered from last
season's terrible visitation of yellow fever, and the work is retarded
by the poverty of the people, and interrupted by absenteeism in
summer. The orange crop will probably double next year, and
improved circumstances will give impulse to church and mission
enterprise.
SYNODICAL AID.
There is not much to add this year to what was said on this topic
in the reports of last year and the year before. The plan of the
Synod of New Jersey has resulted in complete success. The synod
has cared for its own dependent churches, and has given the
Board more than before for outside work. The Synod of Penn-
sylvania has not yet been able to shoulder the full burden, and the
Board has borne a share of it ; but the plan is resolutely pushed,
and will probably succeed in time. The Synod of New York is
still further behind. Somewhat less money has been raised for
Home Missions than last year ; while for the support of th^ feeble
churcEes in the State, the Board is at this time $28,551.83 in
advance to the Synodical Aid Fund. The difference between suc-
cess in New Jersey and partial failure as yet in New York, may
probably be found partly in the fact, that in the one case the pre^
byteries have earnestly set themselves to carry out what the synod
had resolved on, and in the other some of them have not done so..
The Synod of Illinois has lately inaugurated a plan of synodical
aid, which its authors claim to be preferable to any of. the eastern
Digitized by VjOOQIC
1890.] BOABD OF HOME MISSIONS. 21
schemes yet tried, and as the result of which the Stated Clerk
writes, that ^^ already twenty churches have been lifted out of the
death-throes, and put upon their feet.''
The subject of sy nodical aid connects itself closely with the
difficult but vital question as to the best method of saving and sus-
taining the feeble and decaying churches in the older States. Indeed,
it is the condition of these churches that has suggested these syn-
odical schemes, and the fact that these schemes are adopted or
proposed is an encouraging indication that the strong synods and
presbyteries are beginning to awake to the needs of their own weak
places, and are disposed to provide for them, while not diminishing
their contributions for frontier work.
NEW ENGLAND.
No new churches have been organized during the year. Those
previously organized hold on their way, with varying degrees of
saccess, yet on. the whole with an evident growth and gain which
justifies the work. It is the Board's settled aim and policy in this
region, not to build up distinctively American churches, or to
attract members from other denominations to our own, but to put
Presbyterian church ordinances within reach of new comers, who
from training and conviction prefer them, and are for the time
unable to support them unaided.
OUR FOREIGN POPULATION.
One in every seven of the population of the United States is
foreign-born. One in every three is of foreign parentage. One in
every six is foreign-speaking. Of foreigners, as a whole, a large
majority are Romanists, including most of the Irish, Bohemians
and French. Of those of foreign speech, on the contrary, a majority
are Protestants — the Scandinavians, the Dutch, and three-fifths of
the Germans. The Germans are very largely agriculturists, in the
Central West. There are many counties in several States, as Texas,
exclusively occupied by them. There are 400,000 Germans in New
York City, and 40,000 Bohemians. There are Bohemian communi-
ties in Wisconsin, Iowa, Nebraska, Texas and elsewhere. The
Digitized by VjOOQIC
23 ANNUAL BEPOBT OF THB [1890.
ScandinavianB, as already noted in this report, form perhaps one-
third of the people of Minnesota. There are large numbers of them
in Utah.
The Presbyterian Ohnrch has not accomplished as mnoh in this
direction as the Gferman, Methodist, Baptist and Congregational.
But a new interest in this work has recently been developed
throughont the Chnrch. The Board hardly needed to be aroused
on the subject. Indeed, it has repeatedly urged it on the attention
of the General Assembly. How much foreign work shall be done,
and how soon, is not for the Board, but for the Ohnrch to deter*
mine. When the Board closes the year, as now, with a heavy debt,
it can hardly be said not to have gone far oiongh in any given line
of work. New Presbyterian churches have been organized this
year among Scandinavians, Bohemians and Germans. The main
difficulty is tliat of finding fit missionaries speaking these tongues.
Our struggling German theological seminaries are doing their
best, which would be much better if their scanty means were in-
creased. Several young Bohemians are already employed, and
others are preparing. It is thought that others still may come from
Bohemia to engage in the work. A young Spanish missionary of
training and experience has lately begun work among Spanish-
speaking people in New York City. Let the Church out of her
vast resources furnish the means, and the Board will have the
ability, as it certainly has the inclination, in pursuance of the
Master's promise, to plan and do ^^ greater things than these."
CITY EVANGELIZATION.
There is no need of repeating what was said in the last two
reports as to the increase of interest and activity and success, of
late years, in this great department of mission enterprise. Its
relative size and importance are evident from the fact that already
one-quarter of our population dwell in cities, and the further fact
that this concentration is both steady and increasing. The list of
cities in which church extension is earnestly pressed is larger .this
year than ever before. The work is both difficult and costly, but
promising and fruitful, and at the same time more and more

neoesBary. The Board stands ready to respond to all its claims and
calls, to the fall extent of the Ohnroh's will, as shown by the means
it famishes.
THE BOARD OP CHURCH ERECTION.
The Hoard of Home Missions has always found this Board its
willing and sympathetic helper. We have had repeated proofs this
past year of its readiness to render to the utmost its indispensable
and timely aid, in assisting to a church home the congregations
gathered and organized by the missionaries on the field.
THE BOARD OF PUBLICATION AND SABBATH
SCHOOL WORK.
We make hearty acknowledgment this year, as last year, of the
invaluable aid rendered to Home Mission work by the kindred
labors of the scores of missionaries sent out during the summer
months by this Board.
WOMAN'S WORK.
This department of the Board's work is entirely school-work,
under the care ef the Woman's Ezecative Committee of Home
Missions, among the Indians, Mormons, Mexicans and Southern
mountain whites. The schools, with a few exceptions, are all in
the Indian Territory, New Mexico, Arizona, Utah, Alaska, North
Carolina and Tennessee. There are 118 schools, 368 officers and
teachers in charge, and 7,478 pupils. The work has cost this year
$286,371.84. The present grand dimensions of the work have been
reached in less than twelve years. In 1878 the Woman's Execu-
tive Committee was organized, and in the first year the income was
' not more than $5,000. Including gifts for Freedmen, it is now
$337,841.89. A great enthusiasm has been kindled; the best
women of the Church have been enlisted; societies have been
formed in synods, presbyteries, congregations and Sabbath-schools,
and information has been steadily distributed. The work is hard,
slow and costly. Great care is taken to select teachers well approved
Digitized by VjOOQIC
34 akhu:a:l. bxpobt htf thb [1890.
and accredited in regard to character, piety, experience and aptneas
to teach. No part of the teachers' salaries can be looked for from
the field, as in the case of most home missionaries, so that the ex-
penditure is relatively large. The Indians, Mormons and Mexicans
are hard to win and Christianize and Americanize. Bigotry,
ignorance and indifference bar the way. Then the work of build-
ing chapels and schools on distant fields is very diflScult and very
expensive. Great labor is expended very successfully on the Com-
mittee's organ, the Home Mimon Monthly^ which is self-supporting.
It is not easy in a few sentences to set forth the magnitude and
multiplicity of the work of" the Woman's Executive Committee.
The necessary correspondence is very large and difBcult, and per-
plexing questioBid are constantly arising for settlement. The ability,
zeal and persistent energy -of those who have given heart and hand
to this work have won, as they have deserved, the admiration and
confidence of the whole Church. They have been nobly supported
by thousands of our worthiest. Christian women, whose zeal and
ambition have been kindled by contact with their own. The thing
now most to be desired and aimed at is to attract to a participation
in this wonderful work other thousands and tens of thousands of
equally noble women throughout the Presbyterian Church who
have not as yet been led to take hold of it.
The past year has not been less marked by progress and success
in this work than those preceding it. The main drawback has been
that the work has outrun the means. Large as has been the income,
it has not met the demands of even the cautious and limited expan-
sion which has been ventured on. The new work has in large part
been both suggested and provided for by special gifts for the pur-
pose— as for instance, the Oakland Institute at Asheville, N. C,
the purchase money for which was entirely thus furnished. Other
new work, on the contrary, has involved much added expense. It
should be noted that this is especially true of the work transferred
from the Board of Foreign Missions, which has made necessary
considerable additional appropriations.
A complete list of the teachers will be found in the appendix.
The new schools opened during the past year are given below,
with the names of those having them in charge :

* This work has eDconntered serious obstacles and some disasters
dtuiDg the past yeiff ; and yet it' may be affirmed of it in general,
that it has progressed and prospered. For instaace, the boarding-
sehool at Tahleqnah, the Cherokee capital, on a commanding site
oTerlooking the town, is a model of neatness and good order. Old
Dwight Mission, in the heart of the Cherokee forest, with its new
bnildings, present and prospective, is a centre of elevating inflnence
among the iiill-bloods. After an addition which will complete the
main building this year, it is proposed to fit np an old cottage for
the accommodation of a dozen more girls, and a teacher to saper-
intend them. The next important step, if the work of this mission
is to be perfected, should be the addition of a building with adja-
cent farm for boys at some distance from the present premises,
and on a higher and better site. The outlay of $10,000 for this
purpose would give to the men, as well as the women, the Christian
training necessary to secure well-ordered households in the next
generation. The girls' boarding-school at Muscogee, with its two
cottage homes, is doing an invaluable work. At Wealaka the school
building was last year condemned and vacated, thoroughly rebuilt
and improved, and the school re-opened in December. It was just
Digitized by VjOOQIC

getting into full working order when on March 7th it was destroyed
bj fire. It will rest with the Greek nation, whose property it is, to
say whether the bnilding shall be restored, and the school resnmed.
The school at Wewoka, among the Seminoles, after a long and
nsefnl career, is now in a transition state, a new bnilding being in
process of erection by the nation in a different locality. The girls'
boarding-school at Wheelock, and the Spencer Academy for boys,
in the Choctaw nation, are prosperous and strong. In 'New Mexico,
the Albnqnerque Indian school has measnrably recovered from its
two fires, occnpies one new brick bnilding, and is abont to add
another. The school at Isleta, a large pueblo of L,200 sonls, is
maintained with patient perseverance, in spite of the great hin*
drance of the irregular attendance of the children, and the dis-
couraging indifference of the parents. The school for the Pimas at
Tucson, Arizona, has lately received the unqualified encomium of
the Bev. Dr. Dorchester, in9pector of schools in the Indian
Department at Washington. Gen. Armstrong, of Hampton, not
long since pronounced our Good Will Mission School among the
Sisseton Sioux in South Dakota to be a model school. The
Mexican training school at Santa F6 has recently occnpied its fine
new brick building, a picture of which may be seen in the March
number of The GhwroK ait Home tmA Abroad. Up to that time
teachers and pupils bad had a trying experience in the old dilapi-
dated and oveivcrowded adobe buildings, which were quite unfit
for the purpose. The Sitka native training school has added new
buildings for boys' hospital, boys' reading room, museum, and other
purposes, and still further improvements and additions in both build-
ings and industrial training are under way or within sight. The
Collegiate Institute at Salt Lake City is probably the best school
in Utah. Its able principal and teachers have done a noble work,
notwithstanding the great embarrassment of insufficient accommo-
dations and appliances. Our church at Ogden has within the year
doubled its membership, and trebled its congregation and Sabbath-
school. The present church and school sites have been sold at an
advance, and the buildings for both will be erected without delay
on the fine central lot which has long been awaiting them. The
new Academy building at Logan, the chief town in the beautiful
Digitized by VjOOQIC
1880.] BOABI) OF HOME MliSIONB. 9T
Oaehe Yalley, will soon be finished. Several new school chapels in
other places have been completed, or soon will be. All school and
mission work in Utah has received a much needed impulse and
encouragement from the ^^ Gentile '^ victory a year ago in Ogden,
which will probably be in time the chief dty of Utah, and from the
recent similar snccess in Salt Lake City, where there was for the
first time an American majority. Other important towns in the
Territory, such as Logan, Hyrum and Spanish Fork, will probably
follow in the same direction before long. It is the beginning of
the end. It is the tnm of a tide which can hardly tarn back again.
It is a grand relief and reward for the devoted missionaries and
teachers who have held on and held out so long and so well on that
hard field. Among the mountain whites of the South, the Home
Industrial School at Asheville, N. C., with one hundred and forty
girls, is admirably efficient and saccessfnl ; and the Oakland Institute
close by it, with its splendid site, buildings and equipment, opened
last autumn with the hope and promise which it needs only time
and opportunity to fulfill, of fitting young women, by a higher grade
of training and instruction, not only for general usefulness, but for
special work as missionary teachers. In the former school (espe-
cially) there has been a marked religious influence.
We have given only a few specimens at random from the work
in this broad field. As to the new work in sight, the grant of land
in the Umatilla reservation in Oregon for school purposes has been
already mentioned. An industrial school is in contemplation on
the quarter section granted some time ago among the Kiowas and
Comanches, in the Indian Territory, if the means shall be forthcom-

The above table shows the truly national character of the work
of the Board. It has congregations and missionaries in forty-four
of the forty-nine States and Territories of the Union. It has none
in South Carolina, Georgia, Mississippi and Louisiana. In New
Jersey the Home Mission churches are supported by synodical aid
independently of the Board, while contributions are still made as
before to the Board's general work. It will be noticed that out of
the 1,701 missionaries enumerated and classified above, no less than
one hundred and ninety-nine are at work in Southern States. Our
Church is national, and not sectional, and so is its Home Mission
work.

REPORT OP THE STANDING COMMITTEE ON HOME
MISSIONS.
The Standing Committee on Home Miasions presented its report, which was
aooepted, and after addresses by the Rev. William Irvin, D.D., and the Rev. Henry
Kendall, D.D., Seoretaries of the Board, was amended and adopted, and is as follows :
He has lived a generation who has served Home Missions during the past year.
He has witnessed onanges in populations, in possessions, in facilities for education
and in the development of (Airistianity, which thirty years could not compass a
century ago. The nome missionary does business without capital or collaterals ; is
often poor and poorly supported. His thirst for books is tantalieed by the adver-
tisement of volumes he can never hope to purchase. He frequently preaches without
a houee of worship, without Christian and social fellowsfaip, without the aid of
ohuroh-going habito of older communities ; but with all this God has used him in
securing phenomenal success, for with only one-eighth of the membership of the
Presbyterian Church he has received one-fifth of the additions the past year.
The missionaries of the Board have gathered into the churches 17,886 souls,
9796 of them on profession. They have organized two Sunday-schools a day for
the entire year, and every second day a chiuroh. They have a church membership
of 100,778, and a Sunday-school membership of 160,111, and all this is accom^ished
at an average cost of f4S0 per minister, including aU the expenses of the Board.
Was ever such a marvel preceded by such seemingly inadeauate causes? Tou
cannot explain it unless you say, *' These men have been with Jesus and learned of
Him.*' xke day is coming when young ministers wiU cease to ask, " Ought I to be
a home missionary r^ and will say, '* May I be a home missionary P* For they will
come to ne ^* out of Israel in abundance when they see that the Lord is with us."
Suooeee has been all the more noteworthy, because it has prevailed in Dakota
with its 5,000 starving families, California with a fBolure of a chief industry, and
in Kansaw and Texas where the Oklahoma boom drew hundreds of church members
away.
The different sections of our country throng with interest. For instance, the
revival of Presbyterianism in New England is a striking example. It began about
seven years aoo. Boston Presbvtery at that time had some fifteen churches. Now
it has thirty-four. They extend from New Brunswick on the north to Newport at
flie south. These churches are largely composed of those who came to New Eng-
land as Presbyterians. They are located mainly in large manufacturing centres,
and have developed a rapid and surprising strength. Their membership in all but
two instances exceeds one hundred, and in several instances reaches nearly three
hundred. The value of church property added to the Presbyterian denommation
in New England will aggregate somewhere near $140,000. The membership of
these new dburches will aggregate about three thousand. We question if any part
of the Home Mission territory has yielded returns more satisfactory than this. As
an illustration, some six vears aoo, a church was organized at Quincy. On last
April it reported two hunclred and aeventy members, a Sunday-school of two hun-
drcd and &ty, a church and a manse worth $12,500. T)ie people raised last year
$8,100. This is no isolated instance. About three years ago the Scotch Church
was organised in Boston. It now has an attendance of from six hundred to eight
hundr^, a membership of nearly three hundred, and owns a house costing $37,000.

and the Canadian Provinoes, and will continue to come. We mnst provide chnrohes
for these people, else leave them to the world, where they will be lost to erery phase
of Christianity.
Then, too, the work in the Indian Territory is as interesting as it is nniqne in
character. The population truly represento the gradations of dyilisation. From
the sayage and blaxiketod Indian of the Western reserration, through the five civU-
ized nations to the representetives of our advanced American culture, we have there
exhibited the successive stages of progress, and are enabled to see at a glance the
methods of political development. Our missionsries have labored long and suc-
cessfully there, and the prosperity, education and degree of civilisation enjoyed by
the Indians are due solely to the efforte of consecrated men and women who have
devoted their lives to this special work. Although their names may not be known
as household words anumff the churches, none tridy deserve more honorable mention
than these servante of the Master, i^o have underteken work in this particular
field. Evente are moving rapidly in the Indian Territory. Many new lines of
railroad are projected, which when built will give it more railroads in proportion
than are now in Kansas. A new judicial system, with a complete code ox laws, has
lately been provided, and with liberal provision for Indian citiienship and settle-
ment of the land questions, it is safe to predict a speedy end to tribal autonomy.
This means the opening of a vast region to settlement, the asteblishment of churches
and the thorough organisation of every form of Ohristiysn Work. For this we must
prepare, and there is no time to lose. Our churches and schools must be multiplied,
and our brethren of the ministry must be fully reinforoed by competent educated
men trained for Christian work. What the future has in stare for the whole terri-
tory was illustrated by the marvelous rush into and settlement of Oklahoma during
the past year. A wonderful transformation has taken plaoe. Where all was un-
broken prairie one year ago, are now cultivated farms. The tente and dugoute of
the boomers have given place to well-built homes, substantial blocks of stone and
brick. The unorganized communities are now all members of a legally constituted
commonwealth. AH the elemento of great progress and general prosperil^ are there,
and Oklahoma's future is one of great promise. Here our Church has shown itself
capable of wrestling with critical social problems, sad stands to-day as the leading
denomination in enterprise. Every county has ito minister, sad many churches
have been organized. Others are under way. With more ministers and liberal aid
for the erection of churches, the Presbyterian Church will do for Oklahoma what it
has done for Kansas and Dakota. But these axe imperative. When the Cherokee
strip is opened to settlement there will be as great a rush as was made into Okla-
homa. On a false report last March 20,000 men crossed into the strip from Kansas,
to be driven out later by soldiers. What then will happen i^en the country is
legally opened to settlement ? Our Board must be ready when the time comes, for
it is almost impossible to recover ground lost in such a critical time. If in Oklahoma
in the first year we have been able to organize ten vigorous churches, what may we
not expect when a region three times as large is opened ? Twelve thousand people
were in Outhrie two days after Oklahoma opened, 7,000 in Oklahoma City, 6,000 in
Kingfisher. In the Cherokee strip we shsll have a dozen towns of equsl size. We
must be ready for the emergency with a chosen corps of able ministers to organize
the churches.
A similar opportunity is ours in New Mexico. A general feeling of dissatisfac-
tion pervades ^e Roman Catholics of the territory. They are looking to us for
religious instruction. Almost every community in the territory is ready to welcome
a minister or teacher. In the &oe of bitter persecution, many of the Spanish-
speaking people are turning from the priesto and renouncing allegiance to Home.
The prog*ressive spirit of American civilization has penetrated the Pueblo^ and
New Mexico is awakenihg to intellectual, commermal and spiritual activity.
Nowhere else is opened a wider door, and in no other region will evangelistic work
produce more far-reaching effecte.

APPENDIX. 147
To thoroughly' win New Mexioo is to insore snooess in all Spanish-speaking
oountries on this oontinent. The oonneotion is so close that efforts there are felt as
far south as the Isthmns. Here a new departure is producing good results. Native
teachers and oateohists are sent out who can go where our ministers cannot, and
from these we are getting a corps of native ministers who will do a great work
among the people. Through these and our schools we hope to reach in time every
home in New Mexico. We say, " through our schools." We may justly regard
them as equally important wil^ the mini^ry. In several towns, had we room and
facilities in our schools, we- could have five hundred pupils, bri^t young men and
women eager lor Ohristian education. In Las Veg^ and Santa F6 especially do we
need larsre aud well-equipped buildings. In both of these places we have been
compelled to turn away a great number of children for the lack of room. New
Mexico must be filled with Christian schools equal in capacity with those estabUshed
by Roman Catholics. At Las Veg^ the Jesuit school has room for three hundred,
we can care for seventy-five only. They have good buildings, ours are adobe huts.
So too elsewhere. This work must be pressed, even though it makes large demands
upon our treasury, for the money thus expended will bring immediate and large
returns
Similar opportunities are open to us in the South. It is gratifying to notice the
advance of the Board's work in this region, comprehending Southern Virginia,
Western North Carolina, North and South Oarolina, Northern (Georgia, Alabama,
Texas, Tennessee and Kentucky, popularly known as the New South. The revela-
tions in recent years of the salubrious climate, and the exhaustless varied natural
reeouroes for the production of wealth, have attracted millions of capital for invest-
ment, and wide streams of intelligent, enterprising and progpressive immigration.
So that the prospect for enlarging the BoarcPs work is imperative in its need, and
encouraging in the cordial reception extended to its efforts. The mingling of the
best element from the North and the best element of the South in commercial,
industrial, civil, social, educational and religious pursuits, tends to produce the
elimination of sectional prejudices, and the ^ew South is appearing. Accordingly
the obstructions hitherto impeding the Board's work in the South diminish in
gravity in the ratio of the Board's ability to produce men and means to meet the
expanding opportunities. A hopeful evidence of this work is the organization of
the Presbytery of Birmingham in the State of Alabama, with five churches and as
many ministers. The organization of such work presses itself upsn the Board from
every side, as the establishment of new towns and the enlargement of older ones
is unprecedented in the history of the South.
A prosperous phase of the Board's work in the South is the hopeful growth of
the schools of the Woman's Executive Committee. They have been established at
Asheville, North Carolina, Elisabethton and New Market, in Tennessee, and at
numerous other points in the destitute mountain regions of the Central South, and
they are proving a great blessing to these localities, besides laying the foundations
for future chur^es. Your Ocnnmittee cordially recommends the mountain school
work of the Board to this Assembly with the liope that enlarged effort may meet
with still greater results.
Then* too, the work of city evangelization has interesting features peculiar to
itsell Just think of it t There are 50,000 Bohemians in Chicago. They are sin-
gularly accessible. What might not be done, if onlv there were men to go and
means to sustain them ? There are also 60,000 Polanders without a single Protes-
tant missionary among them. There are 20,000 Italians. The Pope has lost thefii.
They will follow anybody who will teach them to read. Many are becoming infidels.
A little church organized six years ago numbers one hundred and fifty. Their
building is too small for those that are accessible. The Scandinavians number
75,000, and in four years four large self-sustaining churches have been built up.
Three hundred thousand Germans have a half dozen churches. One hundred
thousand Irish belong to the foreign classes of Chicago. Will their chains of Bui>er-
stition ever be broken ? A similar state of things exists in all our large cities.
City evangelization and self-protection are twin sisters, to say nothing of the
Master's command to evangelize the world. But the cities are not alone threatened.
Whole oounties are settled up with a foreign population. The best cotton in the

world 18 raued in Texas, and the best cotton in Texas is raised in a strictly German
county. In a town in that vicinity the annual public school picnic is held on the
Sabbath ; and another town boasts that there is not a Bible in it, and that none is
wanted. The proportion of foreigners in the West is still more marked. What
urgency then for home missionarr effort !
The Northwest, what cannot be said of it ? It has all the elements of wealth.
Much of it is unequaled as an agricultural region. Montana and Idaho are noted
for precious metaJs, oopper, iron and great coal fields. Lumber abounds in Wash-
ing^n and Oregon. There are vast harbors to encourage commerce, and the rail-
ways bring hundreds of immigrants every day. Whatever is done for them must
be done now. Seattle grew from ten thousand to twenty thousand in five years.
Multiplied places are growing even more rapidly. Seventy-five home missionaries
are needed in the Northwest at once. Helena has a population of twenty thousand,
and her Protestant churches will not seat more than 1,200. " Who knoweth whether
thou art come to the kingdom for such a time as this ?"
Your Committee enters upon a statement of the condition of the home missionary
treasury with mmgled feelings of astonishment and pain. They are compelled to
look in the face a debt of 980,819.34. What is to become of the home missionaries ?
Worse still, what is to become of the cause of Ohrist ? There are 1,880 churches,
twenty ^ight per cent, of the whole number, that gave nothing last year to Home
Missions. Many of them are weak, to be sure, but too many of them are strong.
There ought to be Presbyterial oversight to prevent such n^lect of duty.
Your Committee is of the opinion that if the churches only knew more about
Home Missions, they would give more to Home MissiouH, and they therefore recom-
mend an urgent effort to put our Church Magarine, as well as the Home Mission
Monthly y published by the Woman's Executive Committee, into everj hand. There
should be wide use of home missionary literature, and, better still, every preacher
ought to crowd his work full to overflowing with the home missionary spirit.
The Annual Beport of the Woman's Executive Committee is a marvel of business
clearness, but the success of their work is of chief interest. In 1889, the churches
gave 9206,895.20. In the same year the women gave 9^78,940 98, an excess on the
part of the women of 912,645.78. In 1890, the one gave 9246,580.49, the other
9286,627 51, an excess on the part of the women of 940,047.02. That is to say, the
women of the Church raised last year 91^«645.78 more than the combined offiazings
of all the churqjies, and this year 9^»^7.02 more. To be sure, they received
950,000 in their school work from the Government, and oonaequentiy that much less
from regular sources, but then it remains true tiiat they received it. It is &irly
due to ueir school work that this sum was secured, and even if you throw out this
950,000, they are then but 910,000 behind the conMbutions of we entire Church.
But this is not all. These women have 992,000 pledged to support one hundred
and thirty-nine teachers and six hundred scholars next year. The women get
tiieir money by the multiplication of small offerings, together with pledged, stated
amounts.
Your Committee beUere that the Board^s policy of grouping churches should be
wisely, firmly and kindlv pushed by the Presbyteries, so as to relieve its treasury
and give the widest prooUmation to the truth. And that further great care should
be tfl^en not to crowd into fields already sufficientiy supplied with the GospeL
We wish to call the attention of the Assemblv to toe good home miasionary
results growing out of the work of the Sabbath-school missionaries of our Church.
Thev organize schools, and the schools become churches. All praise to the Board
of Fublication and Sabbath-schod work.
The Committee believe that the minutes of this Board are not as full as they
ought to be. These minutes constitute the only authentic history of the work of
the Board, but they are littie more than a record of the appropriations made b^ the
Board, with the names of the parties to whom the money of the Board, is given.
Thev do not bring to view, or even allude to the efforts of the Board io provide
funds for carrying on their work. The Treasurer of the Board reports to the Board
at each monthly meeting. The report is not recorded on the minutes. The simple
record is *' That the report was received, approved, and ordered to be filed." There
are no figures in the record that tell the amount of money received and expended.

Out judgment U that in the montl&ly report of the Treaanrer, the amount of money
reoeiYed and expended should be stated and appear on the minutes, and that at the
close of the year a statement corresponding to the hrief summary in the Annual
Report to the Assembly should be spread on the minutes of the Board. The fact
that all the receipts of the Board come out in the printed Reports prepared for the
Assembly, should not interfere with a full statement of the Board's financial con-
dition in its own minutes.
In conclusion, your Committee would ofiEer the following recommendations :
1. In view of the financial embarrassments of the Boards of Home Missions and
Foreign Missions, we recommend that the churches take a special collection, to be
equaliV diyided between the two Boards, and that where it is possible, this collec-
tion should be taken in the month of June, but in any event, not later than the
month of October.
2. It is recommended that the Sabbath-schools take a collection for this cause
during the year, as advised by the Assembly of last year, and we suggest the Sab-
bath preceding Thanksgiving in November, as a fitting time for such offerings.
3. The Assembly h&a hesffd with thankfulness of the growth of Presbyterianism
in New England ; and it is recommended that they apitrove heartily of the help
afforded to our churches there by the Board of Home Missions, and ttuit they favor
the widest and most rapid development of our New England work that shall seem
wise to the Board.
4 Your Committee has examined the minutes of the Board and recommend
their approval by the Assembly.
5. The term of service of the following members of the Board of Home Mis-
mona expires with this Assembly, viz. : Ministera — Thomas A. Nelson, D.D., James
M. Imdlow, D.D. ; LayTnenr— John S. Kennedy, John Taylor Johnston, John E.
Parsona. Their reelection is recommended.
6. This Assembly heartily approves the efficiencv and fidelity of the Board of
Home Missions in its work during the past year, and in order that the Board may
effSactively carry on its work, it is hereby recommended to the churches to raise the
sum of $900,000 for the cause of Home Missions during the present ecoleidastical
year, and this to be additional to the special collection for the debt of the two Boards.
All of which is respectfully submitted.

ANNUAL REPORT OF THE WOMAN'S EXECUTIVE
COMMITTEE.
To the Board €f Home Minions :
Gbntlemek:
We present the Annual Report of the Woman's Executive Committee
of Home Missions for the past year with earnest acknowledgment of the guiding
hand and watchful care of that Divine Providence, responsive to whose call the
work has been undertaken and sustained.
A backward glance over the record of the twelve months just completed reveals
manifold mercies, not unmixed with the trials incident to all work so far-reaching,
embracing interests so vast and various.
During the year three of our Vice-Presidents, Mrs. Edward Elv, of Illinois, Mrs.
Peyton Harrison, of Baltimore, and Miss Laura Sunderland, of Washington, D. C,
foramoat representative women, each occupying positions of great usefulness and
prominenoe in their respective synods, have exchanged earthly service for heavenly

actiyities. Eminenily endowed as thejr were lor the Maat^r*B service, we rejoice
that Qod saw fit to honor the work of oar Committee by calling' to its aid these
women of warm heart, clear judgment and nnswerring Tojulty. Having glorified
Him in their lives and lahor, He has glorified them by promotion to service in His
immediate presence.
We would call attention to the marked prosperity which has attended the year's
work as a whole. With the dosing months of the previous year we celebrated the
completion of the first decade of our org^anization, and entered upon a new era. So
exceptional had been the record of progress that it was predictecl that the limit of
advance, at least financially, had been reached for some time to come. It is there-
fore with the greater gratitude that we call attention to the steady onward move-
ment which is shown in nearly every department of our work.
In the various fields, in many instances, the Mission schools have been greatly
blessed by the conversion of pupils. We have constant testimony from those con-
versant with the facte, that these schools are a necessary and most important factor
in Americanizing and Christianizing the exceptional populations among whom they
are located. It is the persistent endeavor of our devoted missionary teachers to
secure the increased efficiency of the schools under their care. It is a matter of
profound gratitude that while diphtheria and small-pox have ravaged many com-
munities in which a number of the schools are located, yet not one of the mission-
aries has fallen a victim to these dread scourges. During the yeaxs but two of ti^e
commissioned workers has been removed by death. Hiss Lora Snow, of Utah, and
Miss Lizzie Morrison, of Tahlequah, Indian Territory, though several faithful and
efficient teachers have been laid aside by sickness and disease.
One of the most encouraging features of the Tear has been the increased amount
received from Sunday-schools. The support of this work of '* the young for the
young " is eminently calculated to arouse the interest, and prompt the gifts of the
youth in our Church. Eight hundred and twenty-three Sunday-schoou have con-
tributed to our funds, and we are assured that money, which in many instances
would otherwise have been g^ven to oljecte entirely outside the regular Muevolence
of the Church has thus been secured for ito legitiuLato work. Believing that the
children of the Presbyterian Church should be trained to an intelligent support of
the work under ite care, as well as to Christian patriotism, we trust that this evi-
dence of growing interest in the educational work of the Board of Home Missions
is but the promise of much greater resulte to be attained in the near future. To
this end we ask your sanction to the request that the action of the last General
Assembly be confirmed and renewed, suggesting that each Sunday-school devote at
least one collection during the year to tms department of work, and recommending
the Sabbath in November immediately preceding Thanksgiving, as a fitting time
when such offerings be made.
Another noteble evidence of increased interest is found in the rapid growth of
local societies and bands during the past twelve months. Last year the number
was 3,850. This year we have received reporto from 4,257. Our constant aim is to
enlist yet other Presbyterian women and children, whom we are assured need but
to be informed of the work to become ite hearty supporters.
Our publications (a list of which is herewith presented) now include many valua-
ble and stimulating leaflete, which have been prejiared to meet the exigencies of our
work. Many thousand copies have g^ne into circulation, and the demand is con-
stantly inoreasinff.
The Home Simon MorUhiy also enjoys continued prosperity. This magazine
has never absorbed money outside of ite own income in ite publication, but has been
a helpful agent in bringing increased funds into the treasury. As the organ of our
work it is an important medium of communication, and has every where met with
cordial support.
A still further gratifying fact remains to be recorded in the advance on last
year's receipte made by our Synodioal Societies. Kotwithstending unsurpassed
disaster by the Johnstown flood, and though suffering from depression in ite exten-
sive coal traffic, the noble Synod of Pennsylvania nas yet outetripped ite sister
synods, making the handsome advance of $5,000. New York and New Jersey have
each made an advance of (4,000, the latter synod, notwithstanding the fact that it

has leM than one-third aa many ohiudhaa within its bounds as are oomprised within
the larger synod, keeping pace, step by step^ with its stronger sister. Ohio, Michi-
gan, BaLtimore, Iowa, haye also made notable adyanoe ; nor is this inorease oonfined
to the synods enumerated, but the entire list of the twenty-six synods which are
organised for our work, with but three minor exceptions hkye each increased the
amounts which they paid into our treasury oyer those of the preceding year. Could
any better token of loyalty and faithfulness be called for ?
It ffiyes us great pleasure to state that the total amount receiyed for the year
was •&7,d41.89, exceeding the reoeipte of the preyious year by |17,S01.2d This
adyanoe, we are assured, is due not only to greater generosity and actiyity, but
indicates increased derotion and prayer, tnus aflbrding eyen deeper cause for praise
and gratitude. In this reyiew of the year it must not be forgotten that we entered
upon its work with a deficit of $97,000 ; a large portion of this amount was at once
met by self-denial offiBrinffs— eyery coin weighted with a prayer and a promise — and
the entire sum would undoubtedly haye been realised from this source alone but for
the Johnstown disaster, which thrilled the whole country with its apalling magni-
tude, and absorbed botii the sympathy and beneyolenoe of all Christian people by
its oyerwhelming claims.
Haying closed the preyious year with a deficit, in entering upon the work of the
past year, in conference with Hhe oilloers sad members of the Home Board the whole
field was carefully gone oyer, station by station, and the expense of carrying on the
work estimated, together with probable reoeiptS) that thus all debt might be ayoided
if possible. Some months after this careful plan of the work was made, and the
obligations inyolyed assumed, we were requested to take charge of seyeral mission
stations among yarious tribes of Indians, which had heretofore been carried on by
the Foreign Board. In compliance with the policy and sentiment of the Church at
large, aa yoioed in preyious instructions of the General Assembly, adyising that all
the work among the Indians should be conyeyed to the Home Board as rapidly as
possible, we did not feel justified in refusing the work. Aside from this unexpected
and unplanned for work, we haye not only pud oB the $27,000 deficit of the preyious
year, but haye met all our obligations, for, thonffh on iiie day when our books closed
lor the fiscal year there was a balance of $1^031, against the educational work,
delayed funds pledged for the support of teacher's salaries and scholarships haye
since reached our treasury, which, with some other sum% reduce the total to about
the anaonnt incurred in taking this transferred work. We feel tiiat in assuming
this work in compliance with express adyioe and action of the Home Board, we shall
be abundantly sustained, and timt the embarrassment of funds occasioned thereby
will be but temporary, and all obligations be speedUy met.
In order to secure as much certainty as noasible to our income, we haye obtained
pledged salaries from societies and indiyiduals of one hundred and thirty-nine of
our mission teachers, amounting to oyer $61,000. We haye also pledges for the
support of six hundred scholarships, two hundred and seyentir of these haying been
•eoured during the past year, the pledged funds from scholarships amountmg to
oyer $81,000.
Trusting that the year upon which we aie now entering is as big with blessing
as it is bright with promise, we assure you of the continued readiness of the
Woman's Executiye Committee to coOperate with the Board of Home Missions in
the important work of making this a truly Christian land.

ACTION OF THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY
AT SARATOGA SPRINGS, NEW YORK, MAY 21, 189O.
The Report of the Board of Foreign Missions, and the manuscript
volume of its Minutes for the year ending April 30, 1890, were pre-
sented to the General Assembly at Saratoga Springs, May, 1890, and
were referred to the Standing Committee on Foreign Missions. The
Committee consisted of — Ministers: David J. Burrell, D.D., Josiah
Kittredge, D.D., Edward H. Curtis, D.D., Henry S. Butler, D.D.,
William S. Marquis, John M. Allis, Wellington J. White, Thomas
Tracy ; Ruling Elders : Alfred Hand, James D. Thornton, Moses
W. Dodd, Franklin Dye, Richard E. Bryan, E. R. Paine, M.D., and
Sydney B. Davis.
On Wednesday, May 21st, this Committee reported to the Assem-
bly, and, on its recommendation, the following action was taken :
1. That the Minutes of the Board, which have been examined and found in
order, be signed as approved.
2. That the election of new members in accordance with the action of the
last General Assembly, authorizing the enlargement of the Board from fifteen
to twenty-one, be ratified ; the new members being as follows : Joseph R.
Kerr, D.D., Rev. William R. Richards, Rev. John Balcom Shaw, Edward
Wells, Esq., Messrs. Alexander Maitland, John Sloane, and D. W. Mc Will-
iams.
3. That the retiring class of the Board be re-elected, as follows : Charles K.
Imbric, D.D., George Alexander D.D., Joseph R. Kerr, D.D.. Rev. William
R. Richards ; Messrs. Henry Ide, Warner Van Norden, and D. W. Mc Will-
iams.
4. That in answer to an overture from the Presbytery of Washington City,
asking that the simultaneous meetings be held in some other than the first
week in November, the General Assembly recommend that such meetings be
held hereafter during the first week in December.
5. That in response to overtures from forty-seven Presbyteries, asking for
the appointment of a Field Secretary, the Board be authorized to find a suit-
able man at the earliest moment, and appoint him for a period not to exceed
three years, provided a sufficient sum shall be privately secured to meet his
salary for that time.
6. That in answer to "an overture from the Presbytery of Lima, protesting
against the appointment of a Field Secretary, we refer to the foregoing answer
10 overtures from forty-seven Presbyteries petitioning for such apoointment,
as a necessary adjunct to our present working force.

2 ACTION OF THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY.
7. That with reference to an overture from the Presbytery of Lima, requesting
that the North American Indians be taken from under the control of the Board
of Foreign Missions and placed in charge of the Board of Home Missions, an-
swer be made that a gradual transfer has been going on for several years ; that
special reasons exist in cases where such transfer has not been made, and that
the further adjustment of the matter may safely be left to the two Boards, in
accordance with the action of former Assemblies.
8. That we congratulate those godly women of the Church, who, during the
past year of depression and retrogression, have not suffered their zeal to abate,
but have opened their hearts and hands more largely than ever to the blessed
work of evangelizing the earth, and that we invoke the divine blessing upon
them, praying that they may be able to do yet more and more abundantly for
the upbuilding of the kingdom of Christ.
9. That we urge a wider circulation of our magazine— The Church at Home
and Abroad. The people are derelict for lack of knowledge. It is of the ut-
most importance that every family in the Church should be informed as to the
work going on in missionary fields.
10. That we counsel our Sessions to see that due attention is given in our
Sabbath-schools to the work of Foreign Missions, and that the children be en-
couraged to contribute generously, aiming at a sum total of not less than $50,-
000 for the current year.
11. That we suggest to our people, that, so far as practicable, their contribu-
tions for benevolent causes should pass through the regular and appointed
channels of the Presbyterian Church. Without reflecting, in any wise, on the
worthiness of other causes, we venture to urge that always, but certainly in
the present exigency, our prime duty is to furnish an adequate support to our
own. We should refuse all generous diversions until we shall have redeemed
our moral pledges to our own Boards.
12. That the Monthly Concert of Prayer for Foreign Missions, or some
similar service, should be maintained in all our churches, as affording a suita-
ble opportunity for a presentation of the claims of the various mission fields,
to the end that an intelligent and prayerful interest may be taken in the work.
13. An annual collection uken upon a single Sabbath should not of itself be
considered a discharge of duty in any church with reference to the support of
the Foreign Missionary work. If this were its only dependence, the great en-
terprise must languish. We, therefore, recommend the subscription plan, or
the systematic pledge plan, to be used in connection with the plate collection,
in which every member of the Church shall have an opportunity to give.
14. That, in view of the present emergency, a special collection be taken in
all the churches on some Sabbath in June, if practicable ; if not, certainly not
later than October, and that all the undesignated contributions made at such
time be divided equally between the Home and Foreign Boards.
The following additional resolution was adopted :
' Resolved, That this Assembly pledges itself to do all it can to secure $1,000,-
000 for the Board of Foreign Missions the coming year, and authorizes the
Board to make its appropriations in view of such an income.

FIFTY-THIRD ANNUAL REPORT.
In presenting its Fifty-third Annual Report to the General
Assembly, the Board of Foreign Missions would gratefully
recognize the continued blessings of the Great Head of the
Church upon its work and the continued interest in its pros-
ecution which He has inspired in the hearts of His people.
The Board has suffered an unusual number of losses from its
force during the past year. On May 22, 1889, Rev. James P.
Wilson, D.D., who had been a member of the Board since the
Reunion of the Presbyterian Church, was called to his rest
after a brief illness, leaving in the Board and throughout the
Church a deep impression of the sincerity and earnestness of
his character, and of the depth of his missionary interest As
pastor of the Park Street church of Newark, which had been
organized by his effort, and of which he had been the only
pastor, he had greatly endeared himself to his people as well
as to the members of his Presbytery and to the whole com-
munity in which he lived. His interest in the work of the
Board of Foreign Missions was cherished to the very last.
On October 26, 1889, Hon. Hooper C. Van Vorst, a Judge
of the Superior Court of New York, died very suddenly, en-
tailing a great loss upon the Board, of which he had been for a
number of years a member and a legal adviser. As an elder in
the Fifth Avenue Presbyterian church, as an active laborer in
Christian work, as a man of strong faith and prayer, as a safe
and wise adviser always interested in every hopeful sign of
progress, he had rendered himself trusted and beloved by all
the members of the Board. .
On December 28, 1889, Robert Carter, a name well known
throughout the Church and the country, was called to his rest
at the age of 82. He had been a member of the Board since
1843. He was one of the supporters of the Board from the

time of its removal to New York, and its adoption by the Gen-
eral Assembly of the Presbyterian Church. He had been a
large contributor to the Board, as well as a safe adviser
in its counsels. His gifts were also extended to every
form of missionary and charitable work. Though very quiet
in his bestowments, it has been a matter of surprise to many,
even of his friends, to learn the aggregate of his gifts and the
proportion thereof to his means. Mr. Carter was pre-emi-
nently a man of prayer, in the closet, in the home, in the Board,
and in the ecclesiastical meetings of the Church. His faith
and spirit of supplication were elements of power in the Board
and in every form of Christian enterprise.
In accordance with the action of the last General Assembly
authorizing the enlargement of the Board from fifteen to
twenty-one members, the following have been chosen, and their
names are submitted to the General Assembly for its ratifi-
cation : Joseph R. Kerr, D.D. ; Rev. William R. Richards ;
Rev. John Balcom Shaw ; Edward Wells, Esq. ; Alexander Mait-
land ; John Sloane ; D. W. McWilliams.
Mr. William Dulles, Jr., entered upon his duties as Treas-
urer of the Board June 4, 1889, and his administration has
been found eminently satisfactory.
During the year the Board sent Rev. Arthur Mitchell, D.D.,
on a tour of inspection among the Missions in Japan, Korea,
China, Siam, and India. He was accompanied by Mrs. Mitchell,
and visited first our missions on the Pacific coast. Thence
proceeding to Japan, he made a very thorough survey of the
missions in the Japanese Empire, then in due course the mis-
sion at Seoul, Korea, whence he proceeded to North China.
Though experiencing great discomfort on account of the ad-
vance of the season and the difficulties attending the close of
navigation, he was enabled to visit the Pekin Mission and to
return to Chefoo in time to meet the brethren of the Shantung
Mission at their annual meeting, at that place, — a meeting
memorable in the history of the mission. The missions of
Central and Southern China, and also the Siam Mission (not
including the Laos), were visited in turn, but owing to great
prostration Dr. Mitchell proceeded direct from Singapore to
Aden, being obliged to pass by the India Missions. He arrived
in Syria on the 29th of March greatly in need of rest and re-
cuperation.

FIFTY-THIRD ANNUAL REPORT. 5
General health has characterized the year in most of the
missions under the care of the Board, though there have been
some sad losses. Rev. William Calderwood, of the India
Mission, died May 22, 1889, after a long term of service. Rev.
C. DeHeer, long a faithful and successful missionary in West
Africa, died October 20, 1889, at Clifton Springs, N. Y. Miss
Addie C. Ramsay and Professor W. T. Findley, both of whom
contracted yellow fever on their passage, died in the Republic
of Colombia, — Miss Ramsay at the home of her sister in Bar-
ranquilla, and Professor Findley on a river boat upon which
he had taken passage for his mission field, — Bogota. The un-
timely death of these two young missionaries just at the thresh-
old of their field of labor, has impressed not only the Mission
and the Board, but the whole Church.
The year has been marked by great events, some of which
have affected the mission fields occupied by the Board. The
peaceful revolution in Brazil completes the list of Republics
in Central and South America, and it has been followed by a
proclamation of religious liberty to the very fullest extent.
The auspices under which the mission year opens are brighter
than those of any previous period in the history of Brazil.
In Japan a Constitution has been adopted, but at the same
time there have been some symptoms of reaction against the
advanced ground which had been taken with respect to foreign
treaties. Meanwhile an intense intellectual activity is being
developed, and whatever may be the relations of Japan to for-
eign countries, the tide of civilization cannot be stayed. The
missionary labor of all Boards and Societies has continued to
prosper, and Japan is to-day — as it has been for two decades —
a mission field of wonderful promise.
The famine in the Shantung Mission has been followed, as
was anticipated, by a greatly increased readiness to receive
the message of the Gospel. The hearts of the people have
been touched by the manifestation of sympathy shown by the
missionaries and by the Christian Church in all those coun-
tries which they represent. At the mission meeting held at
Chefoo in November, over a thousand inquirers were reported,
in the different districts of that province.
The total receipts of the Board during the year have been
$794,066.44, distributed as follows : From churches, $291,719.86 ;
from Woman's Boards, $280,285.51 ; from Sabbath-schools,
Digitized by VjOOQIC
6 FIFIY-THIRD ANNUAL REPORT.
$36,062.56; from legacies, $112,877.68; from miscellaneous
sources, $73,120.83. The Board necessarily feels no little de-
gree of apprehension in view of the fact that while its work
must of necessity grow, and that in every direction and in
every department, its receipts from all sources have fallen behind
those of last year. Among the obstacles which prevent an in-
crease are the limitation of resources and ability on the part
of certain classes of givers, and the disposition of many to turn
from the regular and systematic lines of work under the care
of the Board to various objects outside of the Church.
On the other hand, the work on the field has been for the
most part encouraging. In Japan, North China, Laos, Persia,*
Syria, Brazil, and in the Indian tribes large accessions have
been made, while in some other fields the gain has been small.
The Board cannot but be impressed with a sense of great re-
sponsibility in the administration of this widespread and varied
work, embracing all the forms of Christian effort as they are
known at home, and it can only trust that the Spirit of God
may quicken the prayers of the Church and arouse a universal
feeling that the responsibility of so great an undertaking rests
upon every one who has named the name of Christ. The
Board would express the hope that pastors and sessions
will feel called upon to assume In their measure a part
of this responsibility, and to teach the churches to feel that
the work is theirs. It also hopes that Standing Committees of
Presbyteries will use every exertion to bring the subject before
the congregations within their respective bounds, to assist

fresh before the Sabbath-schools, that by so doing the interest
and the efforts of the young may be kept in close sympathy
with those lines of mission work which are undertaken by the
Church as such.
The Board would renewedly express its thanks for the faith-
ful co-operation and generous contributions of the Woman's
Boards of Missions. A large number of Sabbath-schools also,
whose example is worthy of universal imitation, have gener-
ously responded to its needs.
In accordance with a recommendation of the General As-
sembly the officers of the Board sent out a circular to the

Presbyterial Standing Committees on Foreign Missions, urging
the importance of more systematic methods of gathering gifts
for this cause. Many churches and a few Presbyteries have
adopted the plan of aiming at a fixed amount of contributions,
and with good results. Several individuals are supporting
each a missionary on the field. Numerous circulars have been
issued during the year setting forth the needs of the work.

In the list of missionaries few changes have occurred, but one of
them is greatly lamented — the death of the Rev. Thomas H. Roberts.
He died of consumption, April 21, 1889, in the twenty-seventh year
of his age and the fourth year of his ministry. He was of the Vey
tribe, but was adopted by a Liberian family, spent several years at
Lincoln University, and then returned to Africa. He labored for a
year at Brewerville, near Monrovia, and the rest of his short life at
Glima in the Vey tribe. Here his work was marked by energy, fidel-
ity, and considerable encouragement. His early removal by death is
a serious loss, and is deplored by many of the Veys, by his brethren of
the Presbytery, and by all who knew him. His young widow returned
to her family in I^iberia, with the sympathy of her friends.
The usual works of preaching and teaching have been followed
down to the dates of the station reports, at the end of last December.
The missionary work in this field is conducted under the supervision,
not of a Mission, but of the Presbytery ; and from its minutes, Decem-
ber iith-i4th, the following statistical returns are taken as to the
membership of the churches :

in Monrovia for a time were followed by no additions to the comniim-
ion ; but the seed sown may yet spring up and yield even a hundred-
fold. The churches of Brewerville, Beadle Memorial, and Marshall
are supplied by the ministers of other churches under the direction of
the Presbytery, and the communion services are regularly maintained.
It is encouraging that two new church edifices have been built, one
at Careysburgh by the labors and sacrifices of the Rev. R. A. M. Dep-
utie and his congregation ; the other is at Johnsonville, on the Mesu-
rado River, about twenty miles north of Monrovia. The latter is
worthy of special record. It was built by a Lit>erian gentleman, Mr.
H. W. Witherspoon, a resident of Johnsonville, who deeded the church,
all complete, and four lots of land, to the Presbytery. This |;ood gift
was gratefully acknowledged by that body. No regular religious ser-
vices preceded this liberal act, but the donor can see bright prospects
already of useful results from it, both among Americo-Liberians and
aborigines. It is expected that a church will soon be organized at
this place. A school under the charge of Mr. Hilton has been opened.
He has been lately licensed by the Presbytery as a preacher, and
while teaching he will continue further studies for the ministry under
the direction of the Rev. F. B. Perry. The Presbytery committed the
care of the church in Monrovia and the proposed church at Johnsonville
to Mr. Perry for the present, with the assistance of Mr. Hilton at the
latter place.
The Board would not pass from this brief report of the churches in
Liberia without again referring to the apparent want of spiritual power
in so many of them, as shown by the statistical returns. And the hope is
expressed that both ministers and elders, aided in prayer by all the
communicants, may be enabled to wait upon God for His blessing in
(ar greater measure. By His favor, in their earnest use of the ap-
pointed means of grace, they themselves may rejoice in their progress,
and their friends in this country will be encouraged in their support,
as co-laborers for Christ.

Warney school was somewhat interrupted by the illness of the teacher,
but was resumed with some degree of encouragement. The other schools
seem to be useful, and the Clay-Ashland Academy, under Prof. King's
charge, reports a larger attendance of scholars than can be well accom-
modated. The Grassdale school also seems to be doing well. In general,
common schools in Liberia can receive but little support from the Gov-
ernment, owing to its very limited pecuniary resources. Missionary
Boards may well extend aid to schools of this kind, when it is within
their ability. Even though the instruction be of the simplest kind —
that of teaching to read, write, and cipher — ^it is not in vain ; especially
when it always includes prayer and Scripture lessons by the mis-
sionary teachers. Seed is Uius sown which will bear good fruit for
both worlds.
The growth of our missionary work in Liberia has not fulfilled the_
expectations of the Home Church in its earlier years, and yet both the
churches and schools there established have never been left without
proof of the divine blessing. But both churches and schools have not
become strong and self-supporting, after over fifty years since the first
missionaries were sent to that countiy. Probably this slow progress
was owing in part to the change of policy, in sending or supporting in
this field only persons of color. For fifteen years white persons almost
solely were available. And of sixteen men and women eight died. In
a number of instances, especially in the first years, this mortality was
clearly owing to the want of knowledge as to proper climatic care.
But the experience gained in over forty years after the change of policy
does not seem to show that the later policy should be followed too
closely ; out of twenty-three men seventeen died. Several of these
men, however, were not very young when they became connected with
the Board.
It may not be wise to make too much of these statistics ; but on a
general survey of the field, it would apparently be advisable to send,
if they could be obtained, a few well-qualified white ministers, and they
would no doubt be warmly welcomed by our brethren in Liberia.
Young people there are of fine promise who ought to enjoy the ad-
vantage in their own country of good education — a Seminary for girls,
and a Theological Hall for young men who have been in Prof. King's
Academy at Clay-Ashland. In both cases industrial advantages should
be available. It is evident that the higher Christian or evangelistic edu-
cation required cannot now be obtained. The Liberia College, so
called, does not provide it, as this institution is now located, and under
its double administration, if not also for other reasons. Experience
seems to show, further, that it is not expedient to send young persons
to this country for their education ; most of them go back in some
respects ill-adapted to the work waiting for the right laborers. This
is not peculiar to Liberia. Such is the usual result in other mission
fields. Our ministers and their wives must generally be educated in
their native country,
Liberia contains about 20,000 Americo-Liberians, and probably
several hundred thousand aborigines of the negro race, of different
tribes and remnants of tribes. Eastward of Liberia a large popula-

tion, it is believed, is becoming accessible to missionary enterprise. It
is now evident that the former small number will not be largely in-
creased, for various causes which need not here be stated. But is it
not also evident that a great evangelistic work is set before these few
thousand Christian people ? I^et them become consecrated to it and
qualified for it. The Board would gladly aid them in further prepara-
tion for this work for Christ, and then for engaging still more actively
in its service. And this feeling and purpose, it ^els sure, will meet
with the approval of the Church in this country toward its mission in
Liberia. ''Who hath despised the day of small things?"

Two names have disappeared from the roll of this mission during
the year, that of the Rev. Cornelius DeHeer, who died at Clifton
Springs, N. Y., October 20th, and that of Mr. Joseph Reading, who
has ceased to be connected with the Board. Mr. DeHeer entered
upon mission work in Africa in 1855, and with the exception of
furloughs for health and rest continued in active service until Septem-
ber, 1888, when he withdrew on account of impaired health, but with
the earnest hope of being permitted to return to his field. He labored
first on the Island of Corisco, and afterward at Benita, on the main-
land. His superior natural gifts, indefatigable industry, patient per-
severance, remarkable common sense, and, above all, fervent piety
and love for souls, made him a model missionary, and won for him the
confidence and affection of his fellow-laborers and of the natives.
His death has been a sore bereavement to the mission, but his memory
is firagrant, and the work he accomplished for Christ will continue to
tell as the years go by. Mrs. DeHeer and Mrs. Reutlinger, who

accompanied Mr. DeHeer to this country, still remain, but with the
expectation of returning to Africa in the near future. Owing to the
serious illness of Mr. Good, he and Mrs. Good returned to the United
States during the summer. Furloughs were also granted to Mr. and
Mrs. A. W. Marling, and Mr. Peter Menkel, captain of the schooner
Nassau. Meanwhile Rev. and Mrs. B. B. Brier joined the mission
in July, 1889, and Mr. Gault, leaving Mrs. Gault in this country,
returned to Gaboon in October. The Board has recently appointed
the Rev. John McMillan, M.D., Rev. George Albert Godduhn, Rev.
W. S. Bannerman, and Rev. Herman Jacot to this mission, who expect
to sail for Africa in August.
The Southern Field.
Baraka Station,
Of the five stations connected with this part of the field Baraka
stands first in the order of occupation, work having been begun there
by the American Board in 1842. Several causes have operated to
retard the prosecution of effective mission work at this place. Being
the port of entry, it feels the blighting curse of a debased and debas-
ing foreign population. As the chief centre of mission business, the
time of the missionary in charge is necessarily largely occupied with
secular burdens. A change in the method of managing the business
affairs of the mission, now under contemplation, however, and the
probable transfer of part of the business to Batanga, will greatly
relieve this station and permit more unreserved attention to the
spiritual aspects of the work. In addition to these difficulties, the
restrictions of the French Government, which still continue, are neces-
sarily more keenly felt at the centre than at the other stations.
The new church building, which has been in process of erection for
some time, has been dedicated to the worship of God, and regular
services have been maintained. In the absence of a detailed report
of the work, which for some reason has failed to reach us in season,
only a general statement can be made. The school under the care of
M. Presset, has steadily increased in favor. The French teacher has
shown himself to be a man of decided ability, and of thoroughly
evangelical spirit. His success during the past two years strengthens
the hope that the employment of French teachers may enable the
mission to maintain its position within French territory, at least for a
time. In addition to his other duties, M. Presset has rendered valuable
service as interpreter for the mission with the Government.
Corisco Station,
This island station stands next in the order of occupation, and has
been under the care of the Rev. Ibia J. Ikenge, the first convert
baptized on the island, and who was ordained to the Gospel ministry
in 1870. The pastor reports an average attendance of 90 at the
Sabbath services, with twice that on communion days. Six persons
were received on confession of faith, and five excommunicated mem-
bers were restored. Grateful mention is made of the sustaining of

family worship by persons in connection with the church. Ibia
has also had the oversight of Ellobey on the mainland, although he
was prevented by illness from giving as close attention to the work
there as usual. One of the elders from Corisco made stated visits
to that place, but encountered difficulty at the hands of the Roman
Catholic priests. Ibia makes an earnest plea in behalf of the
tribes lying back of the points visited by him on the mainland. They
are mainly Fang and Bohaba. These tribes are now reaching down to
the coast, and are quite accessible. They have possession of the
Moony River and the Mbiko country, and are gradually acquiring the
Bolingo on the north of the Moony River. At Italanromga, another
outstation, a congregation of 44 persons is reported under the charge
of the native laborer, Mekabeo. There are five inquirers.
The school on the island had an attendance of eighteen boys and
two girls. Regret is expressed that it was not possible to maintain a
school for the girls during the year. Because of this, the two enrolled were
taught with the boys. The work of the school combines both instruc-
tion and manual labor — the mornings being devoted to the former,
and the afternoons to the latter. Serious difficulty has been en-
countered in getting parents to support their children in the school, as
the school of the Roman Catholic priests is free to all, and especially
to the children of Protestant parents. Moreover, in the latter . the
Spanish language is taught, and this, in the estimation of the islanders,
gives the Roman Catholic school a great advantage.
Angom Station.
This town is situated on the river Como, which unites with the river
Bakwe at Nengenenge to form the Gaboon. Concerning this as a
centre of evangelizing influence Mr. Marling writes: "This is a vast
field for missionary labor. The Fang tribe is the largest and most
energetic in this part of Africa, and there is no place more advanta-
geously situated as a base of operations among them than Angora,
which is central among them, easily reached from Gaboon, and on the
outskirts of that large mountainous district through which the Fang of
the interior roam." The withdrawal of Mr. and Mrs. Marling last
summer left the station in the hands of Mrs. Ogden, who, with the
French teacher, M. Lesage, has bravely stood at her post looking after
the interests of the work. During the early part of the year the Sab-
bath services were held as usual and regularly attended. In the judg-
ment of Mr. Marling very decided advance has been made since this
station was occupied in 1881, although as yet no church has been or-
ganized. When the station was established the people were given to
piracy and cannibalism, practices which are now rapidly disappearing
under the influence of the Gospel. Mrs. Ogden has given instruction
to a class of Fang women, and has also conducted the morning and
evening prayers during the absence of Mr. Marling. Under the in-
struction of Mrs. Ogden the children have made progress in the things
of God, and surprised her on Christmas morning by making out of
their poverty a gift to the Lord's work, consisting of roasted cassava,
Digitized by VjOOQIC
GABOON AND CORISCO— KANGWE. \J
beadsy a needle (a great treasure), choice bits of food, small native
baskets and gourds, while one brought a knife, a great sacrifice on his
part. Mrs. Ogden makes an earnest plea for a medical missionary,
adding: "There are sad stories to tell of the neglect of the sick and
aged by this people. There is much real poverty and sickness. I
think we must show them that we sympathize with their physical suf-
ferings before they will believe that we love their souls.'*
The school-house begun last year has been completed, and the
French teacher, M. I^esage, has conducted a school in accordance
with the rules of the French Government, but owing to the withdrawal
of M. Carmien from Kangwe, Mr. Lesage has been transferred to that
more important position. In the early part of the year Mr. Marling
gave religious instruction to the boys, including an exercise in a small
catechism which had been prepared in the Fang language. The mis-
sionaries look hopefully for the reaping-time after the patient sowing
of the past years.
Kangwe Station,
By order of Presbytery two churches have been organized in connec-
tion with this station during the year, one at Wambalia, twenty miles
below Kangwe, and the other at Igenja, some fifty miles below. The
former was organized with 76 members from Kangwe church, and the
latter with 52 names from the same church. In connection with the
organization 10 persons were received on confession of faith at Wam-
balia and 4 at Igenja. These churches are the outcome of the precious
work of grace reported last year, and of the itinerating efforts along
the river and in the lakes south of and connecting with the Ogowe.
Both have comfortable bamboo chapels, built by the people themselves
without aid from the mission.
During the firsTsix months of the past year 65 persons were re-
ceived on confession of faith. It is known that others have been bap-
tized since Mr. Good withdrew, but no report of the number has been
received. The station has been under the charge of Dr. Nassau, who
has visited the churches at intervals and looked after the general in-
terests centering in Kangwe. The work outside the mission station
has been cared for largely by well-trained native helpers.
The school under the care of M. Carmien has been well conducted.
Fifty boys were in attendance, for whom boarding was furnished by the
mission. The pupils were given work upon the premises, for which
they received sufficient to purchase their books and clothing, the in-
tention being to train them to habits of industry as well as in the ordi-
nary branches of education. Some instruction has been given in the
vernacular^ with the quiet acquiescence of the French Government,
the requisition for teaching French having been fully met by M. Car-
mien, who is a Frenchman. M. Garcon, the French mechanic sent
out by the Evangelical Society of France, has busied himself with the
material interests of the station.
A new outstation has been established at Enyonga, about 80 miles
below Kangwe, on the Ogowe, among the Nkomi people, a branch of
the Mpongwe tribe. This work, which is under the charge of a native
Digitized by VjOOQIC
1 8 GABOON AND CORISCO — TALAGUGA.
licentiate, is regarded as very hopeful, a number of inquirers being
already enrolled.
The exploring party sent out by the Evangelical Society of France,
consisting of Rev. Messrs. Allegret and Tiesseres, very kindly stepped
into the breach when Mr. Good was compelled by serious illness to
leave the station, and grateful acknowledgment of their valuable ser-
vice is hereby made. Under the instructions of the Society these
brethren, after spending a number of months examining our work,
both in the southern and northern fields, expected to leave in April
for a tour into the interior, crossing from the head-waters of the
Ogowe to Stanley Pool, thence returning to the head-waters of the
river Quilo, with the purpose of descending that river to the sea,
about 75 miles north of the mouth of the Congo. After accomplishing
this tour, it is expected that the explorers will again visit our field en
route to Paris, where they will make a report of their investigation,
and upon the basis of that report the Society will determine what shall
be done in the much-talked-of transfer of our missions within French
territory. Meanwhile, it is manifestly the duty of the Presbyterian
Church to stand by the work in the southern field, part of which has
been so signally blessed by the Holy Spirit.
Talaguga Station.
Concerning the work at this station Dr. Nassau writes : " The
aspect of my work for 1889 is more encouraging than for any previous
year, whether viewed from the point of good health, outward prosperity,
good conduct of the station employes freedom from difficulty with
the natives, or their outward respect lor the Gospel." Dr. Nassau
also mentions with gratitude that his relation with, the villages along
the river is cordial, even where the several villages have been alienated
from each other by local feuds. The people not only listen attentively
to the Gospel when proclaimed in their own villages, but have also
attended the Sabbath services at the chapel in Talaguga in larger
numbers than in former years. Dr. Nassau has been assisted by two
Bible-readers, who have travelled along the river from village to village
carrying with them the word of life, rendering also good service at Tala-
guga in the absence of the Doctor at Kangwe. Miss Nassau has con-
tinued to give instruction to a few pupils in the Mpongwe and Fang
languages. Concerning the Fang people, she writes : " They have now
some knowledge of God, and they welcome and understand better the
messengers who are privileged to carry it to them. It is pleasant listen-
ing while they try to sing of Jesus in their own language, also to
witness their increasing reverence in the service of prayer. Still it is
a sad disappointment that, except those Fang who have been under
daily religious influence, there are none who give evidence of true
conversion, although many are impressed, and several have been
added to the inquiry class." Miss Nassau has still continued the
work with her hand-press, including a better edition of the Fang
primer, the reading lessons of which are taken from a manuscript
translation of " The Peep of Day," prepared by Mr. Good. A tract
Digitized by VjOOQIC
GABOON AND CORISCO— BENITA. I9
has also been printed in Mpongwe entitled, *^ What it is to Believe in
Christ ! " Altogether four thousand pages have been issued from this
little hand-press.
After years of continuous service, Miss Nassau has finally consented
to take a furlough in the United States, in anticipation of which she
writes : " As every month and year has deepened my love for and in-
terest in the work, it is a very heart-sore trial that a failure of strength
compels me for a time to withdraw from it."
The Northern Field.
Benita Station.
This is the most southern of the northern tier of stations, and is
situated some forty-five miles above Corisco. A church was established in
1865, growth along the coast being a necessity, as inter-tribal jealousies
barred advance toward the interior. Since the withdrawal of Mr. and
Mrs. DeHeer and Mrs. Reutlinger, this station has been in the hands
of native laborers, including during the past year Rev. Frank Myongo,
who, however, has been ill much of the time, so that the work has
been seriously hindered. It has been visited once or twice during
the year by members of the mission, but no detailed report of these
visits has been received. The visiting brethren from Paris exam-
ined the work here, and expressed their satisfaction. Owing to
lack of proper supervision the boys' school was closed when the
foreign missionaries withdrew^ and the work among the women was also
virtually suspended, there bemg no one left capable of taking charge.
This dearth of laborers is greatly to be deplored, as Mr. DeHeer
withdrew in the midst of a deep work of grace, and just after a large
ingathering. It is earnestly hoped that with reinforcements soon to
be sent provision may be made for the proper oversight of this im-
portant station.
The church at Bata connected with this station was visited dur-
ing the year by Mr. Good, under the direction of the mission. It is
some twenty miles north of Benita on the coast. He found a
church, ministered to by a native licentiate, consisting of ninety
members, in good standing, with an inquiry class of about fifty.
After careful examination a number of members were disciplined.
The chapel, which is built of bamboo and set on posts, with a floor
consisting of boards hewn from the trees, was packed at the ser-
vices to its utmost capacity, from two hundred to two hundred
and hhy 'being present. The building is much too small for the
purpose. The people were considering the question of building a
new onejto meet the growing demand. Morning and evening prayers
at the mission are attended by from thirty to fifty people. The church
is at Ekuku, three miles south of Bata, but the main part of the
population is clustered around the factories on Bata point. Here, Mr.
Good writes : *^ The towns are thick, the beach high and dry. Here
is the terminus of the principal trade and travel route to the interior,
which at this point seems to lie closer to the coast than at Batanga.
The population is large. Counting firom Ekuku, three miles south of
Digitized by VjOOQIC
20 GABOON AND CORISCO— BATANGA.
Bata, to Itonde, ten or twelve miles north, there are ten groups of
towns, and probably a population of from five to eight thousand.
These people are wonderfully susceptible. When one considers the
work that has been done, and the wonderful success with which it has
met, one can't help thinking that if a man, fluent in the language •of
the people, and full of fire and activity, could travel from town to
town with the Gospel, thousands might be converted in a single year."
Unfortunately, the Roman Catholics have recently established them-
selves here, so that the usual priestly opposition may be expected.
The French Government has a post at Bata, but little attention seems
to be paid to it, and the opinion prevails that it will ultimately fall
either to the Germans or Spaniards.
Some thirty miles north of Bata is jEvuni, where a church was
established in 1881, being a colony from Benita. The church has
been under the care of the ruling elder, Mbai, who is also a Bible-
reader. Mr. Good says : " Evuni is another field of great promise.
The population is as large as at Bata and much more compact. From
ten to fifteen miles north are eight or nine groups of Bwiko towns,
making as many more, and on the north bank of the Campo are the
Egara people, said to be very numerous, and among whom we have
some members and many inquirers." A class of between fifty and
sixty inquirers was found and two adults were baptized. Subsequently
Ibia visited Evuni and baptized twelve more. He writes that two
ministers are needed for that region, one for Evuni and one for the
Egara people already referred to, as he thinks the latter ought to be
organized into a church by themselves. Mr. Good found an audience
of about four hundred on Sabbath morning, and at least three hundred
in the afternoon, and scarcely fewer in the evening. The chapel is
built on the ground, the walls being of bark ; it is without windows,
and has two doors at each end. The people are erecting a new
building on posts, which is already under roof. They are begging for
a school ; not a boarding-school under the care of a white teacher, but
simply a day-school under the care of a competent native. The mis-
sionary expresses the opinion that a very large Benga school could be
opened here which would cost nothing but the salary of a teacher.
The place is teeming with children.
Batanga Station.
After correspondence with the Governor of Kamerun, representing
the German Government, the Board authorized the mission to select a
site for a permanent station within German territory, it being stipu-
lated by the Governor that liberty would be granted to teach the
people in the vernacular. In accordance with these instructions the
mission by a committee selected Batanga, where some years ago
a church had been organized, and work had been carried on by native
helpers. A plain dwelling has been erected, and Rev. and Mrs. B. B.
Brier have been assigned to the station. Clusters of villages contain-
ing from 500 to 1,000 people each are found along the beach. No
such population is to be found anywhere in that region of Africa
except among the Fang. Moreover, the people are very impress-

GABOON AND CORISCO— STATISTICS. 21
ible, and seem to be easily accessible to the Gospel. While at Batanga
Mr. Good called on the German explorer, Mr. Kundt, who had just
returned from an expedition to the interior, and was awaiting a steamer
in which to return to Europe. He spoke very enthusiastically of the
country and the people of the interior. If his representations are
correct, it is evident that Batanga is the key to one of the finest mis-
sion fields in Africa. In giving the statement of the explorer, Mr.
Good writes : " For eight or ten days there is an almost unbroken
forest ; then a level or gently undulating plain 2,300 feet above the
sea level is reached, on which live a people called Yeondo. On this
plain the forest is gone, except occasional trees and clumps. The
whole country is under cultivation and teeming with population. Mr.
Kundt says that along the path it is like one continuous town. You are
never out of sight of people and houses, and the people are the finest
he has yet seen in Africa, large, powerfully built, and fine featured.
In fact, whenever he begins to speak of this tribe, he becomes enthu-
siastic. The climate, as far as he can judge, is excellent. He never
had any fever there, and the nights were so cool that he had to sleep
under one or two blankets. If we were only ready to send some one
in to look over that country and get the language, a splendid opening
would probably be found, but the first step must be to occupy and
strongly man Batanga. By that time a road will probably have been
cut through the coast forest belt, and access to the interior made
easier."
During the visit of the committee five adults were baptized, while
subsequently under Mr. Brier 33 were received into the church,
making a total of 38 for the year. Mr. and Mrs. Brier have thrown
themselves with great enthusiasm into the work assigned them, the
former conducting four services on the Sabbath, including Sabbath-
school and two week-day services, ih addition to morning and evening
prayers; while the latter has organized a sewing-class, conducts a
meeting for the women, instructs an inquiry class and trains a church
choir The outlook at this station is certainly most encouraging.

Very marvellous providences are favoring the extension of our
work in Brazil and giving added emphasis to the earnest call for
reinforcements. The abolition of slavery in 1888 making possible
direct work for 2,000,000 of freedmen, is followed by the downfall
of the monarchy in 1889, presaging religious liberty for all classes
and conditions of men. Already at the writing of this report we
are in possession of the text of a decree of the Provisional Govern-
ment of the United States of Brazil of January 7, 1890, determining :
1. That Federal and State authorities alike are prohibited to ex-
pedite laws, regulations, or administrative acts establishing or pro-
hibiting any religion, or to create distinctions between inhabitants
of that country on account of religious and philosophic beliefs or
opinions.
2. That all religious denominations have equal right to liberty of
worship, and to govern themselves in accordance with their respect-

ive creeds without being constrained in the acts, private or public,
which pertain to the exercise of this right.
3. The liberty hereby instituted shall embrace not only individ-
uals in their personal acts, but also churches, associations, and
institutes in which they may be joined ; to all of which belongs the
right to organize and maintain their corporate existence in con-
formity with their creeds and polity without interference of the
Government.
4. That patronage with all its institutions and prerogatives is
hereby abolished.
5. That the legal capacity of churches and religious denomina-
tions to acquire and administer property is recognized within the
limit of the laws concerning mortmain, securing to each the posses-
sion of their present properties, as well as their houses of worship.
Thus the cloud which hung on the horizon of the Church's work
at the organization of the Synod in September of 1888, when a bill
for Religious Liberty was tabled in the House of Deputies, has
been swept away by a stroke of the pen as sudden and final as
that which proclaimed "liberty to the captive" in May of that
same year.
The new conditions thus created call upon the Board and the
Church to lengthen their cords and strengthen their stakes in Bra-
zil. Three new men were sent out to this promising field in 1889,
but one missionary has meanwhile returned home in broken health ;
two others are about returning on leave of absence, one each from
the States of Bahia and Rio.
Thus our mission force is weakened just at a time when it should
be stronger than ever. A new departure is required in order to
take the tide at its flood. The last General Assembly recommended
the immediate endowment of a college at S. Paulo, and the Rev.
G. W. Chamberlain has been laboring during the year to secure
that end. This object if realized should prove a source of supply
of laborers for the expanding work. Meanwhile the reports from
the various fields occupied by our missionaries in that Repub-
lic make it evident that there is great need of more men. The
Standing Committee of the Synod on National Missions thus
appeals :
** The abundant blessings which it has pleased the Lord to pour
out upon our Church adds to our difficulties year by year. En-
couraging reports come to us from all sides ; our pastors, already
overburdened, report large numbers of conversions ; new centres of
believers are being formed, and new responsibilities fall upon the
native church ; meanwhile the laborers increase in an inverse ratio
— they decrease in numbers. Churches, nay more, hopeful fields
of evangelization left almost without direction, send vain appeals to
Presbyteries without means or men to send to them."
Rev. Dr. Blackford, in transmitting the full statistical report,
says:
" In general the work is highly encouraging in the whole field.
The results in some localities are very animating In the

pastoral charge of Rev. J. Z. Miranda, who resides at Sorocaba,
fifty-seven persons have been added to the churches under his care
on profession of faith. This indicates a good work and the blessing
of God. In the district of Botucatu, under the charge of Rev. J. R. C.
Braga, thirty-five have been received. The school at Botucatu has
prospered, though at the expense of time properly belonging to the
legitimate work of evangelizing. He has at length been relieved
from the care of the school. Mr. Torres, who resides at Caldas,
has been obliged to ride fifty miles on horseback to reach either of
his other churches. An invalid for many years, he works with
indomitable will, and besides caring for his churches, does a great
deal of evangelistic work.
" The churches of Rio de Janeiro and S. Paulo have their own
native pastors supported by themselves. In educational work they
receive aid from our mission.
" The number received in the Brazil Mission churches on profes-
sion, 270, is about eleven per cent, of the membership of the pre-
vious year. In the matter of contributions the statistics show an
encouraging increase. The total reported for the year ($12,640.61)
is an average per member of $4*74. The average of the previous
year was $4.06.
** One of the saddest features of the statistics, says the field re-
port, is the small number of candidates for the ministry. Our
table of statistics shows but three ; but by combining this with the
statistics of the Presbyteries, we find six in connection with our
mission's work, or one for every 444 members."
The illness and withdrawal of Mr. McLaren interrupted a valu-
able course of instruction to a class of young men contemplating
the ministry, but not yet received by the Presbytery of S. Paulo.
Larangeiras,
In the State of Sergipe, which lies about 10 degrees south of the
equator, Rev. J. B. Kolb and wife are laboring at Larangeiras.
Mr. Kolb writes : " The past year of labor in the Sergipe field was
one of continued encouragement. The year began with a fierce
persecution at a distant point, but which has not hindered the work
of the Lord. Later, in June, at another point the great enemy was
disposed to shed the blood of those who would preach Christ, but
was hindered. For these trials we thank the Lord, as they have
taught us * to look to the hills from whence cometh our help.* "
At the different points where there are believers, they forsake not
the assembling of themselves together ; they enjoy and profit by their
mutual study of the Scriptures. They deny themselves to furnish
their meeting-places. At Larangeiras, which is the central point,
the attendance was good throughout the year. Sabbath and day
schools were continued. Here is an open door for a Christian school,
for which we should have a thoroughly well trained teacher. The
prospects for the year on which we have entered are good. With
the altered condition of the country, we hope to have greater free-

dom and access to the people. Two new men and a lady teacher
are needed. The State of Sergipe has a population of 250,000.
Three men could have each a natural division of the State.
The church in Larangeiras now numbers 70 members, of whom
II were added during the year. Of Sergipe, Dr. Blackford writes :
" The little work done there has been signally blessed. It ought to
be reinforced at once."
Bahia,
Immediately south of Sergipe lies the important State of Bahia,
at whose capital Rev. Dr. Blackford has had the assistance of the
native minister, Leonidas da Silva, during the year. He was joined
by the Rev. W. E. Finley Sept. 23, 1889. Two colporteurs have
labored in Bahia and Cachoeira during the entire year, and a third
was employed in December to itinerate in the interior of the State.
The want of a lady missionary or Bible-reader for the city of Bahia
is strongly urged by Dr. Blackford. He writes : " Through the
colporteurs and other agencies there were put in circulation during
the year 41 Bibles, 76 New Testaments and 31 portions, 403 volumes,
and 22,000 tracts. Various articles were published in the daily
press." He mentions some cases of conversion through this means,
and adds : '^ I have reason to believe that there are many others
scattered about through the great expanse of the State of Bahia, who
are inquiring for if not walking in the way, into which they have been
led by a copy of the Divine Word or a tract." The attendance at
worship in Bahia improved after a better hall and a more suitable
location had been secured, but the want of a permanent place prop-
erly equipped for worship is still a serious hindrance to progress.
'' The immediate outlook has never been so fair, nor the urgency
for the more active prosecution of the work so manifest as now. In
the city as well as through the interior, the leaven is permeating the
mass, and fruits will erelong be gathered in." There is urgent need
of a school, and an urgent call for laborers in general missionary
work. Dr. Blackford reports an addition of 5 members during the
year, and a total of 51 communicants.
Rio de Janeiro.
This field contains more than a million of souls. Outside the city
ours is the only mission at work for the 800,000 people in the State.
A large unoccupied field lies to the north in Minos and Espiriio
Santo containing a population of 2,000,000, for which we are not
able to do anything. It is in the centre of the country and is the
most densely populated part of Brazil. A strong plea comes from
Rio, as from the other stations, for more laborers to enter the open
field. Rev. J. M. Kyle was aided in the work at this station by the
Rev. F. J. C. Schneider a part of the year. The Rev. James B.
Rodgers went out in July, 1889, The latter writes : ** Mr. Kyle has
struggled on alone for four years without any other missionary of
our Board here. He is secretary and treasurer of the mission, one
of the editors of the Imprensa Evangelical and pastor of two or
Digitized by VjOOQIC
BRAZIL — RIO DE JANEIRO. 2/
three churches. .... I am sorry to say that Mr. Kyle has not been
well. He needs change, and must have it if he is to work on in the
future."
Mr. Kyle, in his report, says : " The church in Rio has continued
to pay the pastor^s salary and all its expenses, amounting to more
than two thousand dollars. It is the largest Protestant church in
the city, is in a central and prominent position, and the services are
well attended. The pastor's whole time is required by the congre-
gation and the preaching services. There is need in this great city
of something like a McCall mission. The conditions which prevail
in Paris prevail here. It would be a great blessing if preaching
halls could be opened for nightly services for a class of people that
cannot be otherwise reached."
The Imprensa Evangelica was transferred in October, 1889, from
S. Paulo to Rio, where it yas first issued in November, 1864. It is
the oldest religious newspaper in Brazil, and has had subscribers
during the year 1889 ^"^ ^ of the twenty States of the new Republic.
The Central book depot is at this station, demanding no inconsid-
erable part of a missionary's time and attention. The need is felt
for a larger expenditure in providing evangelical literature for Bra-
zil. A greater variety of religious books should be offered to the
growing church, and its youth attracted by the excellent character
of the literature offered to them. Nine persons were added to the
church in Rio by profession, and two by letter from other churches.
Losses by death, removal, and suspension equalled the accessions,
leaving the same number as last year.
The churches of Ubatuba, Campos, Petropolis, Rezende, and
Nitheroy are supplied from Rio.
Ubatuba is 150 miles south on the coast. The church numbers
about 80 members, and is growing, although it has never had a pas-
tor. An elder from Rio has served it the past year, while acting as
Bible-reader. Thirteen members were added to the church in Feb-
ruary.
Campos is still without a pastor, and the large field around it still
uncultivated.
PetropoiiSy 30 miles north, has enjoyed public services but once a
month.
Rezende has also suffered from the in frequency of visits. It is 140
miles west on the S. Paulo R.R. Its population is 4,000, but it is
the centre for more than 30,000 souls.
Nitheroy is across the bay from Rio. Religious services have
been held there twice a week and are well attended.
Dr. Blackford says of these churches : " The policy of having but
one member of the mission at Rio, and he being charged with the
treasury, book-work, etc., made it almost impossible to give any
proper attention to these points. Campos is a place of very great
importance, and centre of a large and growing district. Its church
is still without a pastor, and must be cared for from Rio. Rio de
Janeiro, not to speak of the ciiy itself, with 300,000 inhabitants, gives
easy access to one of the most inviting fields of labor, the Parahyba

valley, full of towns and traversed by railroads, waiting and calling
to be evangelized."
Sao PaulO'
We have no mission report from the church in the city of Sao
Paulo, for the reason that it has ceased to be a mission church and is
DO longer dependent on the Board. But we learn from other sources
that this first year of self-support has been one of prosperity, tem-
poral and spiritual There were added to the church 41 persons,
while sixteen were lost through death and dismissal. The manse for
the pastor was completed and occupied. The salary of the pastor
did not exhaust the liberality of the congregation, which while
building a manse has continued to contribute freely to many causes
outside of congregational, more especially to the fund of National
Missions^ They report a total contribution of $4,500. Much is
due to the zeal and wisdom of the capable pastor, who, besides
preaching the word faithfully to his congregation, has continued to
edit the monthly Review of National Missions^ which circulates
widely among all the churches of the Synod of Brazil, stimulating
all to aim at independence of missionary aid, by systematic offer-
ings. He has also rendered efficient service to the mission by
teaching the class of students looking to the ministry, since the
withdrawal of the beloved McLaren through ill-health. He writes
to the former pastor, Rev. Mr. Chamberlain :
*' Pardon the delay in giving you news of this flock, which for
many reasons should be very dear to you. In the multitude of
labors I have to neglect many duties, but the Lord will not allow
this weakness to reach the point of forgetting my brethren before
the throne of grace. Your prayers for this church have been
heard, thanks to the goodness of our Father, since He has given
us many motives for encouragement The general contribu-
tion to the fund of National Missions^ during this year, so calamit-
ous for Brazil, was $5,775. The work progresses, thanks be to
God. The presence of a devoted minister to direct the young men
is of urgent necessity."
The Rev. Mr. Waddell has been appointed by the Board to this
important field. •
The Schools.
These have continued to grow under the efficient direction of
Dr. Lane and his helpers, until 395 pupils were in daily attendance
at the close of the year : 318 Brazilians ; 21 Americans ; 16 French;
13 Italians; 12 Portuguese, and 15 other nationalities. The full re-
port we have of this part of the work says : " The Lord has been
pleased to bless the work in S. Paulo more abundantly in all of its
branches than ever before in its whole history. Both of the board-
ing-schools and the day-schools have been full to overflowing, and
many pupils have been turned away (from want of room)." ....
" Fair progress has been made in the matter of preparing text-
books suited to the improved methods of teaching, chiefly in the
Digitized by VjOOQIC
BRAZIly— RIO CLARO. 29
primary and intermediate departments This is at once the
most important and difficult work in the schools."
A Manual Training-shop has been in operation for the boys of
the boarding-school, who devoted twelve hours a week to this ser-
vice. " The result has been even better than was anticipated. The
boys show a far better comprehension ot their studies, and take
higher stand in their classes than do boys of the same age and rank
who have no work." ....** Manual labor as a branch of legiti-
mate school work, besides imparting the skill to turn the hand to
useful labor, aids powerfully in giving habits of attentiveness, exact-
ness, accuracy in observation, and self-reliance. It sharpens the
perceptions and develops the senses A sense of responsibil-
ity is developed ; method and system are soon seen in all of the
boy's life." This justifies the moderate investment that has been
made, and would warrant extension.
Rio Claro.
The work at this station and the outstations of Araraquara, Piras-
sununga, and Pinhal has been under the direction of Rev. J. F.
Dagama, who reports :
** The outlook is very encouraging all over the field, but it is too
large to do justice to the cause. I have in the Rio Claro church
5 preaching places ; in S. Carlo de Pinhal, distant 40 miles, 3
preaching places ; Araraquara, distant 70 miles, has 9 preaching
places ; Pirassununga, distant 40 miles, has 9 preaching places. The
additions to these 4 churches during the year were 24 ; total number
of communicants, 209; pupils in 7 schools in this field, 112."
BrotaSy Jahu^ Dous Corregos.
Rev. J. B. Howell, with residence at Jahu, reports 11 outstations,
a total church membership of 317, of whom 20 were added during
the year. There are 3 schools, with 56 pupils. Mr. Howell says :
** I have continued monthly trips to the six most important points
in my field, visiting the remaining five quarterly During the
year I have instructed the two candidates for the ministry under
my care Both are exceptionally good preachers, and as
elders have shown themselves well qualified for pastoral work. . . .
The farm-school closed with an attendance of ten boarders. The
boys have shown themselves diligent and ready to work, and have
made good progress in their studies."
This school is suspended at present for lack of a proper head, as
Mr. Howell is preparing to return to the United States. The mis-
sion at its meeting in August, requested the Board to send out a
man to take charge of the educational work in connection with the
farm-school. It is hoped that a proper man will soon be appointed
to the field.

30 BRAZIL— RIO GRANDE DO SUL.
Curityha^ Parana^
The absence from this station of our only missionaiy in the Prov-
ince of Parana has deprived us of any formal report of the progress
of the work there, which has continued under the care of the native
pastor, Rev. M. P. B. de Carvalhosa. Dr. Blackford says of this
field :
^' Curityba, Castro, Guarapuava, and Caropo Largo were last year
wholly under the care of Mr. Carvalhosa. He seems to have been
diligent and abundant in labors, which were signally blessed of the
Lord, as fortyrfour were added to those churches on profession of
faith. A school was also begun in Curityba. This field has hap-
pily been reinforced by the arrival of Mr. Porter and the return of
Mr. Landes. The work there involves long and weary journeys on
horseback. Would that all our other fields could be as liberally
reinforced in proportion to their relative importance as Parana has
been, although there is urgent need for more even there."
Rio Grande do SuL
Mr. Menezes has charge of the church of Rio Grande, and is our
only representative in the important state of Rio Grande do Sul.
At least two more men ought to be sent to that field without dela^.
Mr. Menezes is not strong, and it is not well to leave him alone m
so large and important a field. He feels keenly the loneliness of
his position, and longs for some one to aid him in the work.
The large cities of Porto Alegre, with 50,000 inhabitants ; Pe-
lotas, with 25,000 inhabitants ; Jaguarao, Bage, and others would
welcome earnest preachers of the Gospel, as was verified in the visit
of Mr. Chamberlain to those cities in 1887.
The State of St. Catherina, which is yet to be occupied,
showed the same disposition on occasion of his visit in 1888. The
field is white and the laborers few.
This report should not be closed without calling attention to a
fact which must deeply impress every careful reader, viz., that the
chief accessions have been made to the churches which are under
the charge of native pastors. The lesson of the report is in this
respect most striking.
There could not be a stronger illustration of the importance of
training up a ministry on the ground. Other things being equal, a
foreign missionary can never reach the masses of the people like
one who is of their own blood, of their own habits of thought, and
especially of their own mother tongue.
In Mexico and other Spanish-speaking States, as well as in Bra-
zil, the most effective preaching is done by native preachers.
As a measure of success therefore, as well as of economy, the
work of higher education should receive constant and assiduous
attention. The college or training-school at S. Paulo, under the
care of Dr. Lane, should be put in complete working order, and
should be an object of earnest prayer on the part of the churches.

MISSION IN CHILL
Valparaiso, the chief seaport of Chili : Population, 120,000 ; laborers— Rev. Messrs.
W. E. Dodge, J. F. Garvin, and their wives. Rev. Mases Bercoritx, Seven outstations,
including Constitudon, where there is an organized church.
Santiago, the capital of Chili, lao miles southeast of Valparaiso, with which it has
railroad connection: Population, 200,000; laborers— Rev. Messrs. S. J. Christen, J.
M. Allis, W. H. Lester, Jr., and their wives. One licentiate. Six outstations, including
Linares, where there is an organized church.
In this country: Rev. and Mrs. J. M. Allis.
CONCEPCION, near the coast, about 300 miles south of Valparaiso, connected with
Santiago by railroad : Population, 20,000 ; laboiers — Rev. and Mrs. W. B» Boomer,
Rev. Francisco Jorquera, Eight outstations.
CopiAPO, about 400 miles north of Valparaiso : Population, 15,000 ; laborers — Rev. and
Mrs. W. H. Robinson. Six outstations.
Two or three steps have been taken by this mission during the year
indicating substantial advance, and promising permanent benefit. In
accordance with the policy of the Board, as set forth in its manual for
missionaries, an effort has been made to magnify the Presbytery (of
which the foreign missionaries are members) by committing to it the
work of publication hitherto managed exclusively by the mission.
The Chilian members of the Presbytery appreciate this mark of con-
fidence, and have made a number of suggestions looking toward
economy and enlargement. Should this experiment prove successful,
it is intended to entrust other parts of the work to the Presbytery.
The year has also been signalized by the installation of the first
Chilian pastor, the Rev. Francisco Jorquera, who was called by the
church at Concepcion, one-third of his support being pledged by the
church. By authority of the Board an effort has been inaugurated for
the securing of a permanent home for the Instituto Internacional, a
lot having been purchased for that purpose, and steps taken to secure
the necessary funds for the building. This has been done under the
profound conviction that Christian education is of the first importance
in the evangelization of Chili, and that the need of a permanent home
for the Instituto is imperative.
Valparaiso Station,
This city with its five outstations, under the care of the Rev. J. F.
Garvin, deals mainly with the artisan class. The report divides the
population into four classes : the common peon, or day laborer, who,
as a rule, can neither read nor write ; the artisan, who is usually able
to do both ; the clerks and shopkeepers, and the higher class of pro-
fessional men, owners of haciendas, mines, and commercial houses.

CHILI. 33
Our mission reaches some of the third class, but rarely if ever touches
the fourth. In the estimation of the mission this is not a serious
drawback, as it is believed that the hope of Chili lies in the middle
class.
The church in Valparaiso has suffered by the withdrawal of Mr.
Vidaurre from connection with our mission, and his establishing of an
independent church, which drew for a time from the regularly organ-
ized church. A thorough overhauling of the roll has reduced the
number of communicants to 99. Five were received during the year
on confession of their faith. The Sabbath-school is regarded by Mr.
Garvin as the most encouraging department of the work. The corps
of teachers, drawn from the English community and our own Spanish-
speaking church, is spoken of as faithful and efficient. The attend-
ance on the school has been excellent, and the contributions, con-
sidering the poverty of the scholars, have been large. The Union
Church (English-speaking) continues to render valuable service to the
mission, while its pastor, Rev. W. E. Dodge, as heretofore, gives much
of his time and strength to the work.
Of the outstation Melon the report says : " The work at this hacienda
is encouraging. Pedro Moysan, an aged miner, came to a knowledge
of Christ about four years ago ; and, aldiough dependent on his children
for support, has dedicated himself to the preaching of the Gospel.
He gathers the children of the hacienda in his room, and with the aid
of his invalid wife teaches them a little reading, arithmetic, and writing,
but above all insists on the study of the Bible and catechism. The
school has from 12 to 18 scholars. He also holds a Sabbath and
week-day meeting which many of the neighbors and parents of the
children attend. At these services there are from 12 to 30 in attend-
ance. Several names from this district have been proposed for mem-
bership, and the work is growing and extending in spite of the petty
persecutions of the parish priest."
At San Felipe services have been suspended for the present,' owing
to the removal of several of the strongest supporters, and the Elder
who had charge of the work.
The Quillotta Churchy with 19 communicants, has been in charge of
Mr. Cortes, an elder of the Valparaiso church, a man of earnest
spirit, but without sufficient training to do effective work. Mr.
Cortes reports a number convinced of the errors of Rome, but not
willing to throw off the yoke. He notes a decided falling off in the
attendance on Roman Catholic processions, and a waning of the power
of the priests.
At idira regular services were maintained by Mr. Garvin with an
average attendance of a score or more. It is known that several are
interested, and it is expected that some will confess Christ in the near
future.
The work in Consiitucion^ where there is a regularly organized
church, has languished, although supplied during the year by an
ordained minister. Rev. Mr. Bercovitz. A serious mistake seems to
have been made in re]X)rting the membership of this church hereto-
fore, as it is stated that there are but six members in full communion.

34 CHILI— SANTIAGO.
The most effective work done by the preacher has been in a school
which was conducted with the approval of the mission, numbering
forty pupils, 32 boys and 8 girls.
The Escuela Popular^ a day-school for girls and boys, supported
largely by tuition fees, reports a successful year^ with a roll of 222
children. A marked gain has been made durmg the year in the
punctuality of the pupils, owing perhaps to a rebate of twenty-6ve
cents per month in tuition to those who attend promptly. The report
says : ^* The school is organized as a distinctively Protestant institu-
tion. The opening exercises each morning are religious. Bible-classes
are held twice a week, and the whole atmosphere is Christian." At
the closing exercises a number of prominent Government officials
were present, and expressed their gratification at what they saw and
heard. The Valparaiso papers in reporting the exercises commended
the school for its instiuction and discipline. The mission sets such a
high estimate upon the character of the work done here, that it is very
anxious to have a new primary department opened in another part of
the city, conducted on the same general plan.
The Sheltering Home, which throws the arms of Christian love
around indigent children, has had an uneventful year. Nineteen
children have been cared for. This institution is under the general
direction of our mission, although it is supported mainly by subscrip-
tions in Valparaiso, and the receipts for board and lodging where there
is ability to pay.
Santiago Station,
The Santiago Union Church, composed mainly of English-speaking
foreigners, by an arrangement with the mission has been supplied by
Mr. Allis during the year, the church being responsible, as formerly,
for part of the salary. This arrangement is continued by the Board
under the belief that it is advantageous to the general work of the
mission.
The year opened full of promise for the Spanish-speaking church in
this capital city of the .Republic, six services being held weekly, in-
cluding a Sabbath-school in the chapel. The work, however, was
suddenly arrested by the destruction of the building by fire on April
26th. After an unsuccessful effort to rent a room near the centre of
the city, it was determined to occupy the chapel. This being located
in the outskirts, the attendance was greatly reduced, but through the
generosity of English and Spanish friends in Santiago (especially those
connected with the Union Church, who contributed $5,600 gold), the
amount of insurance realized, and a gift by the Board, a new church
is well advanced, the lower room of which will probably be occupied
by the time this report reaches the Assembly. Notwithstanding the
peculiar difficulties under which the church has labored six persons
publicly confessed Christ, and four were received into the church by
letter.
• The outstations, Talca and Linares, were both visited by Mr. Lester
three times during the year. In the former it has been found impos-
sible to gain a foothold during these flying visits. Nothing short of a

resident missionary, or a well-equipped native laborer, is likely to
accomplish anything in this large and influential town. The church at
Linares has been under the care of a licentiate, who has recently
withdrawn and returned to Germany on account of ill-health. But
little growth is manifested here, owing, it is believed, to the inefficiency
of the person in charge.
EducaiionaL — The Instiiuto Iniernacional x^^ort^ a roll of i6i boys,
of whom 50 were boarders, with an average attendance of 98 day pupils
and 45 boarders. The instruction given in this school is of a good grade,
and is most thorough. That the Government sets a high estimate upon
the institution is evident from the fact that it has recently granted the
privilege of a special examining committee who came to the school, and
there examined the pupils who wished to enter the University, a privilege
granted to but seven of the twenty-eight private schools in Santiago.
It is thoroughly Protestant, and is the only Protestant school of this
grade in the country. The atmosphere of the school is religious, and
is becoming more and more so every year. In addition to morning
and evening religious exercises, preaching services are held on Sabbath
mornings, and a Bible-class in the afternoons. At these services the
boarders are required to be present. The parents have now and then
objected to their children being compelled to attend religious services,
but when informed that this was an essential part of the curriculum,
they have permitted their sons to remain rather than deprive them of
the superior advantages of the school. Reference is made elsewhere
in this report to the effort now being put forth to secure a permanent
home for this deserving institution.
Two students completed their course in the Theological Seminary
under Mr. Allis, and were licensed to preach by the Presbytery, one
being assigned to work in Valparaiso, and the other in Copiapo. The
course of study pursued by these young men is excellent, and by the
Divine blessing calculated to equip them well for their work. Another
student, while pursuing the higher branches taught in the Instituto,
recited also in the seminary. Several young men have applied to be
received into the seminary during the coming year.
Concepcion Station.
The field covered by this station embraces fifteen cities and towns
with large populations, and easily accessible from Concepcion by rail
or steamer. Up to this time, however, the work has been confined
chiefly to the main station, where there is a regularly organized church
under the care of the Rev. Francisco Jorquera, who has been installed
pastor during the year. Mr. Boomer, the foreign missionary in charge
at this station, entered upon his work a year ago, but has devoted most
of his time to the study of the language, having visited but four of the
outstations. It is his purpose soon, however, to organize a system for
visiting the neighboring towns, assisted by a student, and as far as pos-
sible to establish regular monthly services. The church at Concepcion
is reported as united and aggressive. Twelve persons were received
during the year on confession of faith, and four by letter, making a

substantial addition to the working and spiritual force of the church.
In addition to regular Sabbath services a Friday evening service has
been held, and also a weekly sewing society. The pastor has held
special meetings for inquirers and all interested in religious questions.
This church stiil worships in a rented building, and the need of a per-
manent home becomes more and more imperative every day. It is in
advance of all others in Chili in the matter of contributions, having
given for different objects about $500 in gold during the year.
An earnest plea is made for the establishing of a small school on the
plan of the Kscuela Popular in Valparaiso. It is believed that the
time for opening such a school is favorable, and that it would be an
effective means of reaching the artisan class.
Copiapo Station.
The work at this station during part of the year has been in charge
of Mr. Robinson, who with his wife removed to the city last May.
He has held regular services in English, with a preaching service in
Spanish once a month. Within the last few months the work has
become more encouraging, so that the Presbytery has felt justified in
organizing a church, which was done since the report was written. In
addition to the work at this station Mr. Robinson has visited Caldera,
the port of entry, seventy-five miles distant, once a month, where ser-
vices in both English and Spanish were held, the people paying the
rent of the chapel and other necessary expenses, also the travelling
expenses of the missionary. Here, as in the case of Constitucion and
Concepcion, an earnest request is presented for the establishing of a
school. Mr. Robinson writes : " If it were practicable, I would recom-
mend the immediate establishment of a school on the plan of the
Escuela Popular of Valparaiso. I believe that such a school, charging
such moderate tuition as is charged in Valparaiso, would very soon, if
not immediately, be well patronized, and properly conducted would
prove a power for good."
The report concludes : " The missionary in charge feels that there
are many discouraging things, indifference, ignorance, and great spirit-
ual deadness, yet there is hope that the near future will show better
and more definite results than we can report at present. There seems
to be some movement among the dry bones which we earnestly hope
may prove to be the working of the Holy Spirit."
Literature.
The El Heraldo has been issued semi-monthly as formerly, and
has had a circulation of 3,200 copies. The mission continues to
regard this little messenger as a most important agency in evangelizing
Chili, although very far from being an ideal missionary periodical.
The committing of this work to the Presbytery, it is hoped, will increase
the interest of the churches in it, and add to the efficiency of the
paper. The printed page is still regarded as an important factor in
disseminating the truth in this aggressive republic* During the year

The Canton Mission.
In tlie Canton Mission there have been few changes during the year.
Miss Sophie Preston was married to Rev. O. F. Wisner and remains
in the mission. Rev. H. V. Noyes and family returned to the field
during the year, and Rev. A. A. Fulton and Rev. W. J. White, with
their families, have received permission to return to this country.
The health of the mission has been good, except in the case of a child
of Rev. Mr. and Mrs. Gilman, who died in the summer. A severe
epidemic was suffered in the island of Hainan, but fortunately the
health of the missionaries was preserved.
During the year the mission has received accessions in the appoint-
ment and arrival on the field of Dr. and Mrs. E. C. Machle, Miss
lA)uise Johnston, and Rev. Andrew Beattie, the latter of whom has
gone to join Dr. Thomson in the new station of Yeung Kong.
The different lines of work have been carried forward without much
change, and with a fair degree of spiritual growth and prosperity.
The First church of Canton, under the care of Rev. U. Sik Kan, has
received eight members during the year. The present number of
communicants is 109. The number of pupils in Sabbath-school is
t%. The students from the men's training and boys' boarding-school
have attended the church services. The amount of contributions has
been %ii.
In the Second church, under the pastorate of Rev. Kwan Loi, 29
persons have been received, making the present number of communi-
cants 170. The pupils in the Sabbath-school are reported at 210.
The contributions have amounted to $154.
The San Ui church, under the care of Rev. W. J. White, has re-
ceived I. Present number of communicants, 26 ; contributions, $20.
The Third church in Canton, under the care of Rev. Dr. Henry, is
situated in the centre of the city, on the boundary between the Can-
tonese and Tartar quarters. It reports a membership of 64, two hav-
ing been received during the year. Forty-five children are reported
in the Sabbath- school. Contributions, $52.
The Chik Hom church reports 47 members. Nine persons have
been received. Nineteen members are reported.

The Lin Po church, under the care of Dr. Henry, holds services in

The Lien Chow church has enjoyed a year of great prosperity and
growth. Fifteen persons have been received, making the present
membership 53. This has been constituted a new station, and the
large per cent, of increase in its membership during the year, as well
as the contribution of $25, indicates vigorous life for a recent organ-
ization. Only two stations ao-e as yet m full operation. Canton and
Hainan, though the occupation as stations of Lien Chow and Yeung
Kong has already been decided upon.
Chapels.
There are in Canton four chapels in which daily preaching is main-
tained. Dr. Henry, with a Chinese assistant, has had charge of the
Treasury Street chapel. The attendance has been good, and much
interest has been shown by the people. An evening service for prayer
and the study of the Bible has also been held. This chapel is a land-
mark in Canton, and is well known to officials and people, not only
in the city, but far and wide through the Canton Province.
The Sz Pai Lau chapel is also under Dr. Henry's care. This is the
home and centre of influence of the Third Presbyterian church.
The chapel in connection with the First church has been under the
care of Rev. A. A. Fulton. The attendance has been good, though
no immediate fruits have been gathered. Another chapel connected
with the hospital has been under the direction of Dr. Henry and Rev.
Kwan Loi.
Training' School for Men and Boys*
Two boarding-schools and 34 day-schools have been maintained,
with a total number of 916 pupils. The training-school for men and
boys has been under the care of Rev. Messrs. Noyes and Wisner.
The property formerly occupied by this training-school has been sold,
and the means used in the erection of suitable buildings on new
grounds purchased two years ago. The foundations of the new school
building are already completed, and it is hoped that in a few months
all will be in readiness for permanent use, temporary quarters having
been found for the school during the year. The patrons of this school
are mostly members of the church, whose sons are here educated as
far as possible for active Christian work. Efforts are being made to
give greater breadth to the curriculum, and for this purpose a scientific
department has been thought indispensable. Ample room is now fur-
nished in the new building for whatever department it shall be thought
wise to establish in this institution. Mr. Wisner has given some in-
struction during the year in astronomy, illustrating his lectures from
charts and diagrams on the blackboard. Those who were examined
at the close of the term showed themselves to have made marked pro-

ficiency in this to them new science. Instruction in instrumental
music has been given to a limited number of the pupils.
In the men's training department* Bible history, exegesis, and other
branches pertaining to preparation for the ministry have been taught.
Out of eighteen attendants, fifteen are Christians, and one of the re-
maining three is an applicant for baptism.
In the boys' boarding-school most of the time has been devoted to
committing to memory the books of the New Testament Beginners
must commit to memory the Three and Four Character readers, while
the advanced class has studied a Commentary on Romans. Their
work in Chinese literature consists in study of the characters, letter-
writing, and reciting the classics. The whole number in attendance
was 43. The pupils in both departments meet together for prayers
morning and evening. In addition to the regular church services, a
special meeting is held every Sabbath afternoon for more detailed
religious instruction.
TAe Girl/ Boarding- School.
There are two departments connected with this institution — first,
the training-school for women, and second, the girls' boarding-school.
The latter is divided into three grades — advanced, intermediate, and
primary. The work has been in charge of the Misses Noyes and
Butler, assisted by Miss Lewis and Mrs. Wisner. Six native teachers
are employed, and with a single exception all have been educated and
trained in the school. They are all earnest Christians, and are con-
scientious workers. They manifest a deep interest in the spiritual
welfare of the children. There have been during the year in all these
departments 117 pupils, some of them, however, for only a limited
period. Twenty-two from the school have been received into the
church — nine women and thirteen girls. One of these women has
been employed in the school for ten years, and for years her mind has
wavered between the old belief and the new. She has at last become
a decided Christian. The larger girls, with scarcely an exception, are
Christians. A missionary society in connection with the school, or-
ganized in 1888 by Miss Butler, now numbers 45 members, and sup-
ports two Bible-readers in the country, besides making other contribu-
tions. There is also a Dorcas Society, in which sewing and other work
is done for the poor and needy.
jDay-Schools,
Of these, there are 17 schools for boys, with an aggregate of 381
pupils. Seven have been under the care of Dr. Henry, one in Macao,
under the care of Mrs. White, six under the care of Mr. White, and
three under the care of Mr. Fulton, who has returned to this country
on leave of absence.
Seventeen day-schools for girls have also been maintained, with an
enrollment of 343 pupils. These schools have been under the care of
Mrs. Kerr, Mrs. Fearon, Mrs. Wisner, Miss Butler, Miss Noyes, and
Mrs. White.

Medical Work.
The hospital in Canton, under the care of Dr. Kerr, assisted in the
men's department by Dr. Swan, and in the women's ward by Dr. Mary
W. Niles, has had a prosperous year. Many thousands of patients
have been under treatment ; the wards have been well filled, and there
have been good opportunities for evangelistic work. The morning
prayers have been kept up for the in-patients, while out-patients have
been reached by preaching in the adjacent chapel. Special Sabbath
instruction has been given during the year, and many it is hoped,
have received a saving knowledge of Christ. Those patients who are
able attend the services of the Second Presbyterian church. Visitation
to some extent has been done by Rev. A. A. Fulton among the pa-
tients in the hospital. Mrs. Swan and Mrs. Wisner have also worked
as opportunity afforded among the women in the wards.
The hospital school for women has been conducted by Mrs. Kerr
throughout the year, with gratifying results. A new school building,
recently erected, without expense either to the hospital or the mission,
furnishes pleasant accommodations for this school. By means of it
profitable occupation is given to those patients who otherwise would
be left in idleness and without improvement. An excellent plan has
been adopted of keeping a registry of all patients, and reporting them
to the helper in charge of the country station or chapel near which
they reside, that the good work may be followed up on their return
home.
Dr. Swan, in addition to his work in the wards of the hospital, has
taken very efficient care of the finances of the mission in the capacity
of Mission Treasurer. A marked improvement is recognized in this
business department of the work.
The work of Dr. Niles in the hospital and dispensary has been in-
defatigable and useful. There have been in attendance in her depart-
ment 4,286 patients, and 393 in-patients have been under her care.
She has performed 683 surgical operations, and 164 patients have
been visited in their homes, 275 calls having been made. She has
thus reached many firesides of the poor, and also of the wealthy and
influential, always carrying the Gospel message. " Usually/' says the
report, '^ a large roomful of female relatives await her coming. Doubt-
less many secluded women of the upper class have heard the truth,
who otherwise would not have had an opportunity." Frequently one
of the medical students has accompanied Dr. Niles in these visits, and
rendered material assistance in giving religious instruction. As fees
from these patients she has received $182. Owing to poverty, in
some cases, the usual fee of one dollar has not been paid, and in ex-
ceptional cases, more has been received. Four young women are in
the medical class, and of these, the two most advanced have acted as
assistants. All are Christians. In the Sabbath-school, as well as in
many other ways, they have assisted in the religious work of the hos-
pital. The medical class has been continued this year under the care
of Drs. Kerr, Swan, and Niles. Twelve students have been in attend-
ance. Four of the number are women.

44 CHINA — CANTON.
Three dispensaries have been in charge of Dr. Mary H. Fulton.
In one of these, in the centre of the city, 7,000 patients — all women
and children — have been in attendance. During part of the year Mrs.
Wisner visited the dispensary weekly, and since then Miss Hattie
Noyes or one of the Bible-readers has been present on each dispens-
ing day, all for the purpose of reh'gious instruction. By this work
much prejudice has been removed, trust in idols has been weakened,
if not crippled, and in many cases sincere belief in Christ has been ex-
pressed. In another dispensary, under Dr. Fulton's care, 2,000 pa-
tients have been enrolled. At Ng Chau a third dispensary has been
opened for both men and women ; a medical assistant has been sta-
tioned at this place, and nearly 2,000 patients have received treatment.
In November, Dr. Fulton, in response to an urgent request from a
Chinese official in Canton, made a voyage to Swatow, and from thence
several days' journey into the interior, to prescribe for his mother, an
old lady of eighty-two years of age. This official is one of high rank
and of great influence in South China, and has always been intensely
opposed to Christianity. An escort was sent with her from Canton,
and she received every attention on the way and after reaching the
home of her patient, whom she found to be a lady of unusual intelli-
gence. After the recovery of her patient, Dr. Fulton received appre-
ciative testimonials to her skill, and grateful recognition of the value
of her services. The visit enabled her to carry the Gospel to that
distant town under the most favorable circumstances, and it is hoped
that lasting impressions for good have been made.
During the early part of the year Dr. Kerr was called to attend the
Tartar General, who is the military commandant in Canton. After
his recovery, this official came with a large retinue to express his
thankful appreciation. The pomp and circumstance of his visit
spread abroad a knowledge of what had been done most widely and
impressively among the people. Dr. Niles has visited by invitation
'' the families of nearly all the high officials residing in Canton, and, in
such ways," says the report, *' medical skill serves to open doors which
are otherwise barred to the introduction of Christianity."
The hospital work at Yeung Kong has accomplished much good
during the year. Dr. Thomson and his assistants have treated 15,814
patients and 75 in-patients. The number of surgical operations per-
formed was 510.
Outstations.
Of these, there are twenty-eight connected with the Canton Mission.
They are superintended by missionaries residing in Canton and
Macao. Four have been under the charge of Dr. Henry. Much
good work has been done in connection with the Lien Chow station,
though the force at hand is wholly inadequate to meet the openings
for usefulness which are presented on every side. Dr. Henry made
three visits to IJen Chow during the year, being accompanied on the
last journey by Dr. and Mrs. Machle and Miss Johnston. A shop
has been rented temporarily for a chapel, and regular services are
held.

CHINA — HAINAN. 45
The limits of our space forbid a specific notice of the various out-
stations in order, but in them all the work has been judiciously and
profitably carried on through the regular labors of native preachers
and assistants, with occasional visits from missionaries. At a station
145 miles southwest of Canton, five men were received during the
year upon letters of recommendation from churches in California, and
these have identified themselves with the Christian work. This inci-
dent is given as an illustration of the good accomplished by missionary
labor among the Chinese in California, and it is to be hoped that by
mutual correspondence between laborers in this country and in the
Canton Province, all Christian men who return may be looked after
and kept in sympathy with the one work of our divine Master. Mr.
Fulton had the satisfaction of baptizing his first convert in the distant
Province of Kwong Sai, where a few years ago he was mobbed and
his work was broken up. He has made repeated visits to Kwong Sai
Province, but up to the time of his return home on leave of absence,
he had not been able to secure a firm footing. It is hoped that Lien
Chow, which has t)ecome a treaty port, may be found available for the
establishment of a missionary station.
At Yeung Kong, which is situated 250 miles southwest of Canton,
progress has been made. In October last. Dr. Thomson had the pleas-
ure of receiving five converts into the church by baptism. Fifteen
more candidates for baptism are reported. In the autumn Rev.
Messrs. White, of Macao, and Oilman, of Hainan, visited Yeung
Kong and received a strong impression of the prospects of the good
work which has opened up in that station and in the surrounding coun-
try. Mr. Beattie's accession to the mission with the purpose of labor-
ing in Yeung Kong, has given much satisfaction. An interesting work
has been done during the year by Mr. Col man, who has visited some
scores of towns in the region of Yeung Kong, preaching and selling
books.
Hainan.
The Hainan station was established in 1885, though work was com-
menced in the island in 1881 by Mr. Jerimiassen. The missionary
force consists of Mr. and Mrs. Oilman, Dr. and Mrs. McCandliss, and
Mr. Jerimiassen. Notwithstanding the prevailing sickness during the
year, the work has gone on with a good degree of prosperity. The
medical work has made most favorable impressions in the midst of the
epidemic. The superiority of Western science appears in nothing
more clearly than in its improved treatment of disease, and the fact of
substantial help being given in times of distress does much to over-
come prejudice.
Nodoa, 90 miles in the interior, is the only outstation, the mission
having its headquarters at Kiung Chow, three miles from the port of
Hoi How. Mr. Jerimiassen has spent several months at Nodoa
during the year, accompanied by a native preacher. At Nam Fung
some work has been done, and a good degree of interest is manifested.
There are five communicants in the place. Mr. Jerimiassen has,
Digitized by VjOOQIC
46 [china— MEDICAL WORK.
with the consent of the Board, made some substantial improvements
in the building at Nodoa.
I'he medical work at Kiung Chow, under the care of Dr. Mc-
Candliss, has furnished a good opportunity for Mr. Gilman to preach
the Gospel regularly to those who are in waiting for their turn of
treatment There have been 4,774 out-patients and 118 in-patients.
One hundred and forty have been visited at their homes. At Nodoa,
Mr. Jerimiassen has dispensed medicine to over 5,000 patients. Nine
have been received as in-patients in his small hospital. Nearly 2,000
more persons have been treated by Mr. Jerimiassen on his itinerating
tours.
The Canton College.
The Canton College, under the care of Dr..Happer, though laboring
under great disadvantage for want of proper buildings, has made a
good beginning. Sixty-six pupils have been in attendance, and the
only limit to this good work is found in the want of suitable accommo-
dations. By the authority of the trustees of the college, this institu-
tion is now placed under the direct control of the Board in so far that
it has power to fill all vacancies in the trusteeship. It is believed that
when suitable buildings are secured for the accommodation of all who
come, the institution will enter upon a career of great prosperity and
widespread usefulness.

Pekin Mission.
The health of this mission has been good in the main. Mrs. Whit-
ing was obliged to seek leave of absence for a necessary recruit. Dr.
Aiterbury returned during the year from a leave of absence. No ad-
ditions have been made to the mission.
There are in the Pekin Mission two organized churches, both in the
city. Very little has been accomplished as yet by this Mission in out-
stations, with the exception of some summer work at a point about
fifteen miles away. A movement is now in progress, however, for
establishing an additional station in the interior.
The total number of communicants reported by the Mission is 183.
During the year 27 were added to the church, and the net gain is
25. The number of adherents is given as 360. The children in the
Sabbath - school number 180. In the two boarding-schools and
the nine day-schools 158 pupils are enrolled. The amount of con-
tributions during the year was $338.30. The Mission reports one
pastor and two ordained evangelists. The pastors' salaries are only
about $80 a year. Two theological students, eight licentiates, four
medical students, eighteen teachers, and four Bible-women are re-
ported
The medical report given by Dr. G.Yardley Taylor, embracing the pe-
riod from August 1, 1888, to August i, 1889, reports 18,640 out-pa-
tients, 155 in-patients, and 90 surgical operations. Owing to the ab-
sence of Dr. Atterbury during the year thus reported, the outside dis-
pensary work has been almost entirely in the hands of the first assist-

ant, Wang Yu-lin. Two medical assistants have honorable mention
for the work accomplished by them. The native pastor of the
hospital church has been faithful in preaching to the dispensary
patients and in visiting those confined in the wards. Mr. I^ang-
don, a recent accession to the mission, is spoken of as having made
many visits to the in-patients, whom he has interested in the teach-
ings of the Bible. Hsu Pin, a theological student at Tungchow,
has spent his summer vacation to good advantage in preaching and
healing the sick in a district about forty miles northeast of Pekin.
Attracted partly by his medical skill, a score or more of the villagers
gathered about him, coming quite regularly to his inn for instruction.
Mr. Lowrie visited the place in midsummer, and was greatly pleased
with the spirit of earnestness which these inquirers displayed. The
head men of the village, alarmed by the spread of the foreign doctrine,
be^an a system of terrorizing which soon subdued the weaker in-
quirers. Inn-keepers were forbidden to harbor any one who preached
the doctrine, and employment was refused to all not willing to swear
allegiance to the religion of their ancestors, and threats of violence
were freely uttered and posted throughout the neighborhood. The
door thus opened has been partly closed, but it is hoped that it will
soon be opened wider than ever.
This instance shows the efficacy of medical missions, when con-
ducted in an earnest, evangelical spirit, in opening the way for the
truth. Dr. Taylor and his first assistant visited the region north of the
place above mentioned with a view to establishing two dispensaries.
This is the kind of introduction that has most promise for the future.
Miss Marion Sinclair, M.D., and Miss Jennie McKillican, the latter
acting as trained nurse, are highly spoken of in the report in connec-
tion with the medical work, though the task of acquiring the language
has largely absorbed their attention during this their first year.
The report refers to some general changes which have occurred in
the country, conspicuous among which is the completion of the rail-
road from the Kai-ping coal mines in the region of Pekin, to Tientsin.
This achievement, together with the fact that other lines are contem-
plated, indicates an awakening of the Chinese Government to the
necessity of these material forms of development.
Near the close of the year Rev. J. L. Whiting and Dr. B. C. Atter-
bury visited the region westward from Pekin with a view to establish-
ing a new station.
Mr. Wherry, with the approval of the mission, has been largely en-
gaged in literary work. Mr. Whiting, also, in addition to preaching
three times a week in the street chapel, has been preparing a Chinese
work on Moral Philosophy. Mr. Lowrie has had the boys' school in
charge, and has addressed the people as occasion offered. During the
hot season he gathered large numbers at an old temple in the coun-
try, to whom he preached the Word of Life. Dr. Sinclair and Miss
McKillican, in addition to hospital work, have been engaged in evan-
gelical effort among the women.
Miss Mary Lowrie, as well as Mrs. Lowrie, has done a good work
among the women. She has maintained regularly a woman's class.
Digitized by VjOOQIC*
CHINA— PEKIN. 49
At the Hills, in the hot season, she gathered an interesting girls* school,
which she was reluctant to give up on returning to the city. Miss
Grace Newton has sustained the responsible work of the girls' school
and with increasing interest.
Mr. Langdon has been diligent in his first year with the language.
The mission have deplored the necessity which compelled Mrs.
Whiting to leave her useful work among the women on account of ill-
health. Mr. Whiting remains at his post.
The following incident, given in a letter from Dr. Atterbury, is so
faithfully illustrative of the boasted benevolence of Buddhism that we
quote it entire :
'' Dr. Taylor was called out the other day to see a little fellow about
fifteen years old who was found lying in a field with his throat badly
cut and many other wounds in different parts of his body. The case
strikingly illustrates the difference between Christianity and Buddhism ;
between active sym])athy for suffering and mere falk about compassion.
It seems some rascal hired the boy, who was a donkey driver, to take
him to a place a little distance from the city. Arriving at a lonely
spot the man attacked the boy, and leaving him wounded and bleed-
ing, ran off with his donkey. By chance a man came along some time
afterward, who carried him to a large, open space' in front of one of
the largest temples in the vicinity. Here a crowd quickly collectmg
stood gazing at the little fellow as he lay on the ground, but no one
offered to do anything for him. In this land, which is lightened by the
* Light of Asia,' men follow the example of the priest and the Levite,
and, after looking at any case demanding assistance, ' pass by on the
other side.' This took place about noon. The next morning
some one suggested asking the foreign doctor to see the boy, as
there was no other chance of saving his life. So Dr. Taylor went
out, and was almost disposed not to attempt to do anything, loss
of blood and long exposure having made the case a desperate one
to treat. Still he thought he would try to see what could be done, and
he asked if some one in the crowd of two hundred or more people, who
were standing around, would not tell him where he could find a room
to which the boy might be carried while his wounds were being
dressed. In the gateway of the large temple directly behind were a
dozen priests — devout followers of Buddha — but they would never
think of allowing the wounded boy to be put into one of their vacant
rooms ; he might die, and then the expense of burying him would be
great, or at any rate they would have to look after him for some days,
and this would be a sore trouble. At last a man, living at some little
distance, gave permission to have the boy carried to his house. There
Dr. Taylor dressed the wounds, and finally the boy was brought to
our hospital, where he now lies in one of the wards. His neck was
so badly injured that at first everything he ate came out of the wound.
Now, however, he is much better, and there is some chance that he
may pull through all his troubles. The trachea being cut through just
at the larynx, he cannot talk, and several times has nearly suffocated
from the swelling under the lining membrane of the windpipe obstruct-
ing the passage of air. He is a patient little fellow and lies quietly on

the kang with a tube in his throat which gives him great relief. He
appreciates everything we do for him, and, unable to speak, thanks us
by shaking his clasped hands in Chinese fashion.
" Let those at a distance sing the praises of the * Sage of India ' and
applaud his teachings. A tree is known by its fruits. If asked, this
wounded boy would say that there was a something in Christianity in-
fluencing its followers to love their neighbors as themselves which the
religion of his own country did not possess. Many of the Chinese,
knowing about this case, have contrasted the action of the priests in
not allowing the boy to be taken into their temple with that of the for-
eigners who did all they could for him."

Shantung Mission.
The annual meeting of the Shantung Mission was held at Chefoo in
November last. All the accounts represent it as the most interesting
meeting ever held by the mission. One element of great encourage-
ment and joy was the arrival of sixteen new missionaries — men and
women, who arrived on the field just before the meeting was held.
They received the most hearty welcome, and as to their character and
promise, the very best impression appears to have been made upon
all.
Another circumstance of great encouragement was the fact that as a
result of the faithful work done in famine distribution, a thousand in>
quirers were reported as looking toward the truth and the acceptance
of the offer of salvation. It is generally believed that during the pres-
ent year a still larger number will be found, and that the work in the
immediate future will be attended with greater fruits than at any for-
mer period. It was also reported that a large number of backsliders
had returned to their^duty, and that the zeal of many of the native
churches had been quickened.
A matter of still further congratulation was the fact that Dr. and
Mrs. Mitchell arrived in time to attend some of the closing exercises
of the meeting. Dr. MitchelFs letters, as well as those of the mis-
sionaries, speak of the occasion as one of remarkable interest and
encouragement.

In addition to the large number of missionaries appointed by the
Board, a valuable accession was made to the mission in the marriage
of Miss H. R. Sutherland, of the Canadian Mission, to Rev. Dr.
Corbclt
Measures were taken at the meeting toward ocaipying two new
stations — Che-ning-chow and I-Cbow-fu — and assignments were made
of the new missionaries, together with some of those who had had
experience and a knowledge of the language. The Board has thus far
sanctioned the occupation of the former of the stations named. Rev.
S. A, Hunter, M.D., and wife, though they had received many months
before leave of absence from the Board that they might visit their
fatherland, after many years of faithful labor, cheerfully consented to
remain two years longer, in order to establish the new missionaries at
this interesting station, which is situated on the Grand Canal.
There have been several cases of serious illness, which will be par-
ticularly noticed in connection with the various stations. With the
exception of these, the health of the mission has been mercifully pre-
served and none have been called away by death.
Tungchow,
The Tungchow station reports 234 communicants, with an addition
of 27 during the year. The pupils in Sabbath-school number 207.
The Tungchow college reports 115 students, and the girls' boarding-
school 26. The total number in all schools is 158. One native
pastor. Rev. Yuen Keh Yin, is reported. There are connected with
this station six licentiates and nine teachers of both sexes. For the
benefit of missionary societies and Sabbath-schools, desiring to sup-
port particular pupils, it is stated that the support of a student in the
Tungchow college is $40; in the girls' high-school 925, and in the
medical school $13.
The report of the Tungchow college may be briefly summarized as
follows : The last year has been the twenty-fifth of the history of the
institution, and has been the most prosperous year in its whole career.
The average number of students has been over 100. In view of the
increased number of applicants the standard requirement for admission
has been raised, and the admissions have been restricted to those of
roaturer age than in former years. The boarding-schools at the other
stations are beginning to furnish students for the college, and these are
found as a rule to be the most satisfactory in the end. The demand
for the graduates of the college among all the various Protestant Mis-
sionary Societies in China has been greater than ever. It would seem
to be a matter of regret that the Presbyterian Missions in the Empire
should not be sufficiently sustained by funds to enable them to utUize
all the graduates of this vigorous and efficient institution, both in the
department of the ministry and in that also of school instniction.
Seven of the students have applied for admission to the church, of
whom four have been received. In the absence of Dr. and Mrs.
Mateer for most of the year, Mr. and Mrs. W. M. Hayes bore the
chief responsibility, until it became necessary for Mrs. Hayes to obtain
Digitized by VjOOQIC
52 CHINA—CHINANFOO.
leave of absence and return home on account of ill-health. Mr.
Hayes accompanied her only as far as Japan, and thence returned to
his post. Mrs. G. S» Hays, temporarily engaged at Tungchow, has ren-
dered more or less assistance during the year, devoting some time also
to the country work among the women of the villages. Her husband,
in the meantime, has been too much occupied with evangelistic work to
be able to render much assistance in the school, except for a part of
two sessions. The institution has continued to be one of the foremost
centres of higher education in China. It is a thoroughly missionary
institution, keeping the great spiritual ends of mission work ever in
view, at the same time that it has pursued a course of broad and effect-
ive instruction in practical science, and in whatever should be deemed
necessary to fit young men to meet the changing conditions which
are rapidly passing over the Empire.
Dr. Neal's medical report shows during the year 4,227 out-patients
and 58 in-patients ; of the latter, 4 1 are reported as cured. He has
also had a class of 5 medical students. The course occupies four
years, of seven months' study in each. Toward the close of the year.
Dr. Neal,whose work is greatly approved by the mission, was removed
to Chinanfoo, and Dr. Coltman assumed his duties at Tungchow.
Dr. Mills, in addition to chapel preaching and itineration, has la-
bored among the patients assembled from day to day at the hospital.
The girls' school at Tungchow has been assigned to Miss Wight,
who has been transferred from Chefoo.
Mrs. Mills has made a good beginning in the instruction of three or
four deaf-mutes, — a kind of Christian effort hitherto unknown in North
China. This work is not connected directly with the Board, but has
been sustained by gifts from deaf-mutes in this country, who have been
anxious to do something for their fellow- sufferers in China. An utter
incredulity seems to have possessed the people until they saw demon-
strations of the possibility of teaching this unfortunate class to com-
municate with others and even to read the Word of God.
Chinanfoo.
Dr. Coltman, who has had charge of the medical work, reports an
increase of 1,200 patients during the year — making the whole number
8,495. ^^^^ hundred and eighty-five surgical operations have been
performed. A number of calls have been received by him from offi-
cials, and many new friends of the work have been made. . With the
consent of the mission, Dr. Coltman has exchanged places with Dr.
Neal, of Tungchow.
Mr. Reid has carried on an extended work among the outstations,
making eleven tours, and meeting with not a few discouragements in
various forms.
Much work was done in the early part of the year by the mission-
aries of the station in famine relief distribution. Mr. Bergen also de-
voted a part of his time in giving instruction to the theological class at
Chinanfoo. The country work has fallen mainly to Messrs. Murray,
Bergen, Reid, and Chalfant«

Serious illness during the year has affected neariy every member of
the station, and has rendered the necessity of procuring property for
residence outside of the city too plain to be disregarded. The char-
acter of the diseases suffered is such as to show clearly the effect of
malarial poison. The city lies on a level plain, with little opportunity
for drainage, and has almost no sanitary care. Gradually, and espe-
cially through the medical work, the mission seems to be growing in
the favor, or at least in the toleration, of the people. All the local
work is within the city, except that of the school, which is located in
the east suburb.
The total membership reported in the Chinanfoo church is 113, of
whom 6 have been baptized during the year.
Chefoo.
Rev. Hunter Corbett, D.D.. reports a very prosperous year in the
outstation work. Two itinerating journeys, extending over ninety-four
days, were made. He finds new life in some important stations in
which for some years there had been little advance. Two new schools
have been established, one for boys and one for girls. Four persons
have been received on profession of faith, and some lapsed members
have been restored. At a large interior town 19 persons were ad-
mitted to the church, two of whom were widows, aged 74 and 77
respectively. All these accessions attributed their first interest in
the truth to the attendance of their children or grandchildren upon
Christian schools. The suggestiveness of this fact will be hailed with
satisfaction by all who, in Sabbath-schools or women's auxiliary
societies, are contributing of their funds to the maintenance of these
interior day-schools. When one is able scy clearly to trace the
influence of these little germs to the establishment of permanent
churches to which goodly numbers of the middle-aged and even the
aged are received on profession of their faith, there is reason certainly
to thank God and take courage. This influence may be traced still
further back to those steps which led to the establishment of the
schools themselves. For several years a widow woman has resided
as the sole believer in this place. It was at her earnest request that
a school was opened less than two years ago. Intense persecution
followed for a time, but at length subsided. A great change came
over the people, and there are now three schools and the flourishing
church above named. The influence of this movement is not con-
fined to one village. Many persons in the surrounding villages have
given their names as inquirers, and they are now studying the truth.
Two Bible-women who are employed in this region report many
homes in which they have found women and children learning to
pray.
In another village, twenty miles distant from the above, there is a
sort of family church corresponding somewhat nearly to those of New
Testament times. In one influential family there are more than thirty
persons, all communicants. Others besides the family have been added,
and the church has, with great self-denial, provided itself with a

simple but attractive church building and school-house. The structure
was dedicated during Dr. Corbett's ^visit. An elder and a deacon
were ordained, and nine persons were baptized. In this village also
there are three day-schools.
In the Chi Meh district, where years ago Dr. Corbett shared the
persecution to which the people were subjected, ne spent this year
several days in visiting the various schools and preaching stations among
the villages. Fourteen years ago the people of this region built for
themselves a church and school building. The place is now too small
for the requirements of the community, and steps have been taken to
erect a new edifice, to be known as the Mary Nixon Corbett Memorial
Church. Toward the erection of this building the people have sub-
scribed largely in labor. Since the harvest of the autumn crops the
work of erection has gone forward. At still another village a build-
ing for worship and for a school has been presented by one of the
native Christians, a deacon in the church, a man of little means, but
rich in faith and good works. Still another congregation, sixteen
miles distant, have recently repaired and enlarged their church and
school building by their own effort. Fourteen new members were
added to their number.
During this trip. Dr. and Mrs. Corbett visited five organized
churches, eight stations, examined seventeen schools, and received 52
persons on profession of their faith. Thirty children were also bap-
tized. In another place Dr. Corbett organized a church with thirty-
two members. There are now ten district churches under his care,
with a membership of 634. They are almost entirely self-supporting.
They contributed during the year, in spite of their great poverty,
$533. The total number added during the year on examination was
1 10. The excellent plan of Drs. Corbett and Nevius of gathering
young preachers and helpers for three months of training during the
winter months, has been continued. Twenty have been thus instructed
during the year.
Chef 00 and Outsiaiions, — The report says : " Faithful work has been
done in -the boys' boarding school at Chefoo. Forty pupils attended.
A ^bright lad of seventeen died of fever after only a few days' illness.
His parents and grandparents were Christians. He had been ad-
mitted to the communion l short time previous to his death. Five
young men entered the College at Tungchow at the end of the year.
One of the teachers, Ten Sheo Shen, came to us wheH quite a small
boy. After several years spent in school here, he went to the Tung-
chow College and graduated with honor. After taking half of the
theological course, he found his strength not equal to the trying work
of itinerating, which is required as a part of the training for our theo-
logical students. He is a first-class teacher. His wife has for several
years taught in her own home a little school for girls in a village near
us. She has now twelve bright little girls attending and daily memo-
rizing Scripture and other books. Most of the girls are from heathen
homes. The parents have learned to value education for their girls as
well as for the boys. It has required many years of patient work to
gain this point.

'^The removal of Miss Wight to Tungchow has necessitated the
temporary suspension of the girls' boarding-school at this place. I
tmst the time will soon come when we shall be able to have a flour-
ishing school permanently established here.
^ A number of new schools have been established at different points
in the interior. We have now a total number of 29 schools, with an
aggregate attendance of 500 ; of these, 100 are girls.
*' In one village where we have three members, after much effort we
succeeded in getting a little school started. To-day a letter came
from the teacher, saying he has opened with 30 pupils, some of them
coming daily from surrounding villages. The same messenger brought
a request to have another school opened in a village seven miles dis-
tant 1 should think fully one-half of the number who united with the
church the past year attributed their interest in the truth to what they
saw and learned in connection with the Christian schools. These
schools are proving an effective means of expelling darkness and
overcoming prejudice and hostility. So important has this work become
that we have felt constrained to enter upon a long-cherished desire
and open a normal school at Chefoo for the special training of teach-
ers and lay-preachers. Only young men of from 18 to 30, as a rule,
are admitted, and only those who have already attended native schools
from eight to twelve or more years. A special course of three years'
training is given. We have two Christian teachers, exceptionally well
qualified for this work, now in charge. We have ten men at present
and many more applicants. Among the men is a native graduate of
fine scholarship and address. We do not guarantee certain employ-
ment to the students who take this course, but sincerely hope we may
from this school be able to supply a great want of more efficient la-
borers. This will in no way interfere with the College or regular theo-
logical classes. Each student is pledged to aid, so far as possible,
needy and worthy youth in acquiring an education after they leave
our school."
Dr. Nevius has devoted his time principally to the preparation of
books and to the training of the native ministers. Mrs. Nevius has
suffered very serious illness, but with the blessing of God appears to
have measurably recovered her health.
mi Hein.
The report from Wei Hein is full of interest. Mr. Leycnberger spent
some two months or more in famine relief in the early part of the year,
distributing ^6,000 among 20,000 persons. He devoted forty-three
days of the autumn to outstation work, and was cheered by the revival
of interest on every hand. One hundred and fifteen inquirers presented
themselves for examination, while backslidden members returned and
engaged with zeal in the performance of Christian duty. Among the
29 outstations under Mr. Laughlin's care are about 100 pupils in schools.
Much interest is shown by the people in the education of their chil-
dren, and desires are expressed for the establishment of boarding-

schools for girls. Mr. Laughlin has been permitted to receive into
the church during the year 26 adults, and has baptized 4 children.
Dr. Hunter's work has been carried on in usual variety — embracing
pastoral, medical, and literary work. His time, also, has been largely
drawn upon in the building operations of the station. His dispensary
was opened to patients every day except Sunday. Dr. Hunter super-
intended the erection of a dispensary and hospital at Wei Hein — a
memorial of the late Mrs. Robert Mateer. Some time, also, was de-
voted to famine-relief work.
Mr. Mateer returned in the late fall from a leave of absence and en-
gaged at once vigorously in his work.
Mr. and Mrs. Laughlin were employed for five months in famine re-
lief, distributing $30,000 to 35,000 people — some being aided during
the entire five months, and others a shorter time. Abundant oppor-
tunities for preaching the Gospel were improved as time and strength
permitted, and with great promise of good results. A considerable
number of persons are reported as studying Christian books, observing
the Sabbath, etc. Over 400 persons in the outstations visited by Mr.
I^aughlin have avowed themselves inquirers and have been examined.
Only a small proportion were received, for want of sufficient knowl-
edge, but it is believed that the new year will witness a large ingather-
ing. The inquirers are mostly of a good class of people, not likely to
be influenced by the " loaves and fishes." " The heathen," says Mr.
Laujghlin's report, "are more favorably disposed than ever before,
while the Christians are apparently quickened in faith, and are build-
ing better houses of worship, opening schools, making larger contribu-
tions, etc Meanwhile, many old backsliders are returning."
The boys' boarding-school at Wei Hein has been prosperous. Spe-
cial work for women has been carried on by Mrs. Laughlin, both in
itineration and in instructing visitors at her home. Miss Anderson,
notwithstanding a long and severe attack of typhoid fever in the hottest
season, has done a good work for a part of the year among the women.
Two village boarding-schools for girls are under her c^e, as well as a
general work among women in the country and at home. She also
spent a month in the famine region, assisting in the work of relief.
Miss Anderson and Mr. Chalfant are both highly commended by the
£xan)ining Committee for the progress which they have made in the
language during the past two years. The latter has already begun to
preach in the Chinese. He has also had a part in the work of relief
distribution, extending aid to nearly 5,000 persons, who were thus sup-
ported during an average of fifty-four days each. A part of the year
has been occupied in superintending the building of a house. The
field assigned to Mr. Chalfant embraces eight stations, in which there
are one hundred Christians. Mrs. Chalfant has worked among the
women as her time and strength would permit.
Four new members — Dr. W. R. Faries, Miss Mary Brown, M.D.,
Miss Madge Dickson, M.D., and Miss Emma F. Boughton — have
been added to the station during the year.

Central China Mission.
The magnitude of the field occupied by this mission is set forth in a
recent appeal for reinforcements as follows :
" Our live stations occupy a commanding position with reference to
the richest and most populous part of China, — what may be called the
temperate zone of the Chinese world. The parallels which include
the provinces of Chehkiang and Kiangsu, within which our five sta-
tions are located, form the central belt through which flows the great
river of China, — the Yiang-tse-kiang. Our position commands the
whole broad valley of this * Son of the Ocean/ with all his tributaries.
Under the Governor-General, whose palace is at Nanking, are grouped
three provinces — Kiangsu, Kiangsi, and Nganhui, with an aggregate
population of 95,058,559 in an area of 165,137 square miles. Add to
these the province of Chehkiang, with a population of 26,256,784, in
an area of 39,150 square miles, and we have as the field within easy
reach of our station over 121,000,000 of people in an area of 204,-
287 square miles. In other words, in a territory only one-fourth as
large as the United States east of the Mississippi, we have a popula-
tion about doable that of the United States."
Ningpo Nation,
The year at this station has been one rich with tokens of Divine
grace, although peculiar difficulties have been encountered. The mis-
sionary force, all too small at best, was depleted by the necessary
withdrawal, on account of health, first of Miss Warner, and later of
Mrs. Butler. Mr. and Mrs. Partch, however, although necessarily
occupied largely with the study of the language, have done much to
relieve the burdens of Mr. and Mrs. McKee. On the 23d and 24th
of August a typhoon passed over the region occupied by this station.
The rain fell in torrents; the streams were swollen to a degree un-
known in forty-five years ; bridges and houses were swept away, some
villages being almost totally destroyed, and crops greatly injured. The
loss fell heavily upon some of our native Christians. The chapel in
Ta-bing was wrecked — ^the native preacher and his family, who occu-

pied a part of it, barely escaping with their lives. The Roman Cath-
olics have not been slow to take advantage of this condition of things,
one of their preachers busying himself among the suffering members
of our church in the Saen-poh district, offering them food and clothing
if they would come to Ningpo and join the Roman Catholic Church.
Notwithstanding the strong temptation to people on the verge of
starvation, only three or four yielded. When in addition to this it is
learned that persecutions, especially in the line of depriving Chris-
tians of their rights and privileges as to ancestral estates, still con-
tinue, it will be seen that the difficulties encountered are neither few
nor small.
In spite of these drawbacks, several of the churches connected with
the station have enjoyed a time of refreshing. Ten members were
added to the Ningpo church on confession of faith, two of them wood-
carvers by trade, men of intelligence and influence. One was the
son of heathen parents in well-to-do circumstances. Before he was
received into the church, the parents were consulted, and frankly
stated that they had no objection to having their son confess Christ —
a very marked contrast to the persecution which usually awaits those
making a public confession of their faith. Special mention is made of
marked growth in spirituality on the part of two of the members of
the church, manifested amon^ other things by a spirit of Christian
beneficence — one of them givmg one-tenth of his income to the Lord,
and the other still more. The church at Fu-saie, in the Saen-poh
district, so signally blessed last year, has received eighteen persons on
confession of faith this year, while still others are inquiring. It is
worthy of record that this work of grace had its origin in the faithful
efforts of a humble, earnest member of the church among his heathen
neighbors. The church at Tsiu-ong has just completed a neat church
building at a cost of $450, United States gold, of which less than one-
half was furnished by the Board.
There are seven Bible-readers connected with the station, five of
them laboring in Ningpo, and the others within the bounds of churches
at the outstations. Those serving in the city engage also in itinerary
work at certain times.
Referring to evangelistic work the report says : " On account of
the unusual readiness of so many to listen to the truth, our native
preachers feel the importance of being doubly diligent at this time,
and we are sending out preachers, two and two, into the regions be-
yond." While on a recent visit to Tong-Yiang, two hundred miles
from Ningpo, Mr. McKee was hospitably entertained by two gentle-
men of influence. They professed to be believers in Christianity,
having learned of Christ at the Hankow Hospital of the London Mis-
sionary Society, where they had been successfully treated. They gen-
erously offered their assistance in securing a suitable house for a chapel
if a native preacher could be sent. Two native laborers have been
sent to occupy the field for the time. During the early part of the
year a combined effort was made by the four missions occupying
Ningpo to conduct street preaching in different parts of the city.

The- experiment, which continued for three months, was regarded by
all as a success.
Schools. — TYicPresbyierial Academy^ under the care of the Presbytdry
of Ningpo, had thirty-four pupils last year, twenty-nine of them being
boarders. Of these, twenty-five are sons of Christians, eight of them
being communicants. The religious interest in the school has been
well sustained. Seven of the pupils applied for admission to the seal-
ing ordinances of the church, four of whom were received, including
the son of heathen parents, to whom reference has already been made.
The Presbytery maintains a faithful watch over this institution, re-
quiring at its annual meeting reports from the directors, the examining
committee, and the soliciting committee, besides carefully auditing the
accounts of the school.
The Girl^ Boarding-School^ which^ under the efficient management
of Mrs. Butler, has come to be an important missionary agency, has
for the past year been under the direction of Mr. McKee, Mrs. Mc-
Kee rendering such assistance as her strength would allow. Mrs. Li,
the raatron-teacher, and the other native helpers who have been con-
nected with the school for some time, also rendered excellent service
in the absence of the Principal The pupil-teacher, Ah-loh, died after
a short illness, rejoicing in her Saviour, and exhorting her heathen
relatives to accept Christ Thirty-four pupils were enrolled, most of
them the daughters of Christians. Eight are communicants, and five
others are inquiring.
There are three day-schools for boys connected with the station —
one in Ningpo with eight pupils, one at Bao-ko-toh with ten, and one
at Yu Yaio with sixteen. These schools are under the care of the
pastors at the respective places, who are held responsible for their
management. The Board grants $25 per annum toward the support
of the teacher, the church being responsible for the remainder. This
plan is found to work well, as it not only stimulates to self-support,
but makes the teacher responsible to the pastor, and in a' measure to
the parents of the pupils. These teachers are graduates of the board-
ing-schooL
There are two day-schools for girls^ one of them taught by Mrs. Zi,
the wife of the pastor of the Ningpo church, who, in addition to the
usual studies, gives the pupils lessons in sewing, embroidering, etc.
The children are mostly from heathen homes. The other is taught
by O-kwe, a young married woman, a graduate of the girls' boarding-
school. It originated in her gathering together, of her own accord,
a few of the daughters of her heathen neighbors, to teach them to
read and sing. These schools have been superintended by Mrs.
Partch, who has also the oversight of the Bible-readers and the indus-
trial class.
Shanghai Station.
Our mission occupies three localities in this commercial metropolis
of Central China. The oldest sub-station is within the English con-
cession and centres around the Mission Press. This Press, first estab-
lished in Macao in 1844, removed to Ningpo in 1845, and finally

6o CENTRAL CHINA— SHANGHAI.
transferred to Shanghai in i860, continues to be one of the most
efficient parts of our equipment at this station. The plant has been
increased during the year by the addition of a new Bremner printing
machine, together with two new fonts of type. The Press continues
to do a large amount of work for the British and Foreign Bible Society,
the American Bible Society, the Chinese Religious Tract Society, and
the North China Tract Society. During the year 11,753,950 pages of
Scriptures were printed; 7,158,870 of religious books and tracts;
3,09 ^.,2 13 pages of miscellaneous matter, besides the regular issues of
the Illustrated News^ the Child* s Paper ^ and Chinese Recorder ^ mak-
ing a total of 23,820,363 pages for the year. About one-half of the
eighty persons employed in the Press are professing Christians. All
are expected to be present at morning prayers, and the attendance on
the Sabbath services, which is voluntary, is reported as excellent. Bor
the past two years the church connected with the Press has been sup-
plied by Mr. Sz, a Chinese minister. A few months ago he was
formally called, and has since been installed pastor of the church, the
congregation providing for his entire support In addition to this
they have also furnished funds for the maintenance of a day-school.
About three miles south of the Press, outside the South Gate of the
city, is the second centre of work established. To the east and south-
east of this there is a populous suburb, extending over a mile from
north to south, within which no other mission is operating^ Mr.
Smith writes : " Including the portion of the interior of the native dty
next to us unoccupied by other missions, we have a region of about
one mile and a half long by one mile wide, densely packed with
houses, and containing a population of about 150,000. Our nearest
missionary neighbors are. a mile west of us, and the nearest point of
the foreign settlement is a mile to the north." The church at the
South Gate reports 129 members, of whom four were received on con-
fession of faith during the past year. The average attendance on the
Sabbath morning service was about 160. Two Sunday-schools are
held in connection with this church, — one in the morning for the
boarding-school scholars, the other in the afternoon, which is attended
not only by the pupils in the boarding and day schools, but also by a
number of heathen. The highest number present during any one
session was 285, the average attendance, including teachers and pupils,
being 230.
Concerning the two boarding-schools at the South Gate the report
says that '* they have continued about as usual, excepting that we have
had more sickness than commonly falls to our lot, and were obliged
to close both schools for a month on account of measles. The usual
studies have been pursued, special efforts being made to secure thorough
religious instruction."
In the boy^ school (orXy-ihree have been enrolled, the average attend-
ance being thirty-seven. The religious condition of the school is
encouraging. Six of the boys are professing Christians, four having
been received into the church during the year, one of them uniting
with the Southern Baptist Church with which his family is connected.
Still others are inquiring.

CENTRAL CHINA— SOOCHOW. 6 1
In reporting the girl^ boarding-school^ Mrs. Smith states that the
arrival of Miss Posey had been quite a relief, the burdens being too
great for one to carry. The school is conducted on the Mt. Holyoke
plan. The report says : " We divided our thirty girls into ten divisions
last spring, giving one of the older girls two younger ones to care for
and help. Each division has work to do each day, and every Monday
morning the task is changed ; for instance : the kitchen division be-
comes the dining-room division during the second week, and that has
charge of the dormitories, and so on." One death occurred during
the year, and although the girl was not a professing Christian the hope
is expressed that she had given herself to the Saviour. Fourteen of
the girls are members of the church and sustain a weekly prayer-
meeting.
Seven day-schools have been conducted during the year in con-
nection with the South Gate, the pupils being examined monthly in
the church building. The total average attendance on these schools
was about one hundred. In addition to his teaching and preaching
work, Mr. Smith prepared and issued a Sunday-school paper, one-half
of which is devoted to the International Lessons and is used in
Shanghai and Soochow in our own and some other missions.
About four and a half miles northeast of the Press, within the Amer-
ican concession, in the district called Hongkew, is the third location
occupied by our mission under the superintendency of Dr. Farnham.
The site was selected during the past year after consultation with the
Presbytery, and in view of its spiritual destitution. It was found that
a number of members of Presbyterian churches of the city were living
in that locality, and steps have now been taken for organizing them
into a church. On Sabbath, February 3, 1889, a room was opened
and publicly consecrated to the service of God as a chapel. The
average attendance at the preaching services has been about 60, with
an attendance at Sunday-school of 47. Eight persons have expressed
a wish to be received into the communion of the church.
Three day-schools for boys and girls have been established in the
neighborhood, two of them being taught by Christian women, who
were trained in our girls' boarding-schools at Shanghai and Ningpo.
All the schools are superintended by Mrs. Farnham.
Dr. Farnham in addition to other work has continued to have
the editorial oversight of the Child* s Paper and Chinese Illustrated
News ; also, to act as secretary of the Chinese Religious Tract Society.
The supervision of the five outstations connected with this station
has fallen to Mr. Silsby, who spent seven weeks in itinerating, exam-
ining the schools, and conducting services in connection with one of
the Chinese preachers.
Soochow Station,
Soochow, a city of 500,000 inhabitants, is the centre of an immense
population. It is estimated that from the top of the large pagoda in
the city may be seen an area with a population of five millions, while
five millions more are contained in a still wider circle, which must be
reached from this «6tation if at all. The outlying regions between
Digitized by VjOOQIC
62 CENTRAL CHINA— HANGCHOW.
Soochow, Hangchow, and Shanghai include a lai^e number of walled
cities with their teeming multitudes. The city has been occupied by
our mission for the past eighteen years, but for* the most part it has
been very inadequately manned. The church numbers 25 members,
7 of them having been received during the year. The interna-
tional lesson is studied on Sabbath morning, and preaching services
are held in the afternoon, especially for Christians. There is also a
Thursday afternoon prayer-meeting and a weekly prayer-meeting for
women. Two women have been brought into the church largely
through the influence of the Bible-woman. Mrs. Hayes feels deeply
the need of reinforcement in this direction, and it is earnestly hoped
that two single ladies, for whom provision was made in the estimates
last year, may be found to enter upon this work during the coming
year. Services have been maintained in the two chapels as usual.
One inquirer is reported from that at Tsang Mung, a man who had
been addicted to opium-smoking. In this connection Mr. Hayes
writes : ** We have a terrible foe to contend with in opium. There is
an opium den on each side of one of our chapels, close to the build-
ing, and the fumes from the smokers are often quite annoying." At
Mt. Lion, a rocky peak several hundred feet high, rising abruptly from
the plain, some five or six miles west of the city, a chapel has been
rented and a school opened. At the foot of this peak five of the
Soochow church members reside, four of them having been baptized
during the year. It is expected that this will prove the nucleus of a
strong and vigorous church. Of the five members only one, a woman, is
unable to read. They are well-to-do farmers, and live in the midst of
a population above the average in intelligence. The report makes
touching reference to the death of one of the elders, Mr. Loo, who
was for many years a chapel preacher at Kwung-san, but for the past
three years had been identified with work at Soochow. He witnessed
a good confession, and died in the triumph of faith.
Five day-schools have been in operation with a total enrollment of
72. In these schools about one-half the time is devoted to the study
of Christian books. Two young men from this station have recently
entered the theological class in Tungchow.
The brethren at this station make an earnest plea for at least two
men adapted to itinerating work, who after mastering the language
may be able to undertake the work of preaching the Gospel in the
vast re&rion already referred to.
Hangchow Station,
The return of Mr. and Mrs. Mills to the United States last spring,
because of impaired health, left the whole burden of this station upon
Mr. and Mrs. Judson until toward the close of the year, when they
were joined by the Rev. J. C. Garritt, the only addition to the or-
dained force of the entire mission for the year.
The membership of the church in Hangchow numbers 68, the same
as last year. Five had been added on confession of faith, but one
had died and four had been dismissed to other churches. *' The con-

tributions have been larger than usual. In addition to the support of
their own pastor, and caring for the sick and poor among themselves,
they raised some thirteen dollars toward the relief of the famine*
stricken ones in Northern China, and they have also employed a
Bible-woman during the greater part of the year." The church at
Sin-z, the other church connected with this station, has had a very
different experience. But one has been added to the roll, while six
names have been taken off, three by death and three by dismission to
other churches, leaving a total membership of 38. The pastor, Mr.
Yu, who has been settled over the church about a year, has passed
through a sore affliction in the death of his wife, leaving him with five
motherless children. Owing to the lack of force, but little chapel
work was done in the city of Hangchow. Mr. Tsiang Nying-kwe,
pastor cf the city church, preached in two chapels as his other duties
would permit In the Beh-ma-miao chapel, service has been kept up
throughout the year, a student who had been pursuing his studies in
the Tungchow Training-School being in charge. In addition to the
Bible-woman employed by the church, the mission has employed an-
other. These visit the homes during the year, and testimony is borne
that nearly all the families, whether rich or poor, receive them gladly,
and listen attentively to the truth. During the year over one thou-
sand families have been visited in this way.
The Bayi Boarding-School opened with an attendance of 50. Two
were subsequently dismissed, leaving 48 on the roll, an increase of
8 over last year. Of the 48, seven are professing Christians, one
of whom was received during the year. About half of them are the
children of Christian parents, and have been baptized. At a recent
communion, twelve others applied for admission to the church, four
of whom were received. Mr. Judson reports a marked religious feel-
ing among the students throughout the year. Two young men were
graduated last year — one, a member of the Hangchow church, is now
teaching a day-school in the city, and the other, of the Southern Pres-
byterian Church in Hangchow, is employed by them as a teacher.
At the last meeting of the Presbytery, three of the graduates from this
school were licensed to preach, while still another is studying theology
at Tungchow.
The Industrial Department has been continued as during last year,
a native carpenter being employed to give instruction. The outcome,
however, is far from satisfactory, and the request is again made that a
man thoroughly trained in industrial lines in this country be sent out
to take charge of this department.
Five day-schools are conducted by this station, three in Hangchow
and one at Sin-z, the fifth having been opened at the outstation
Zang-peh. The case of a sad fall and probable apostasy through
opium is recorded in connection with one of the schools, the teacher
having been dismissed because of the opium habit, after having been
dealt with kindly, but without effect. He has been disciplined by the
church, but thus far has given no indication of deep penitence.
On the return of Mr. and Mrs. Mills to the field after furlough, it is
expected that more attention will be given to evangelistic work.

Nanking Station.
The completion of the house erected for the two single ladies con-
nected with the girls* school — Miss Lattimore having been joined by
Miss Lane last autumn — together with the building of a neat and
commodious chapel, has quite add^d to the material equipment of the
station. The chapel, which was rendered necessary by the growth q€
the girls' school, was built in part by gifts from private sources, and
was dedicated to the service of God last June. Though ten conver-
sions are reported for the year in connection with this station, no
church has been organized, presumably because of the lack of material
for ruling elders. Mr. Leaman reports that regular Sabbath services
have been conducted at three points in the city, with a manifest in-
crease of interest on the part of the people. He has also paid some
attention to the distribution of Bibles, tracts, and calendars, and feels
assured that the year has passed with a good measure of God's bless-
ing and no little success.
Mrs. Leaman reports for the Girl^ Boarding-School a year of
patient effort and of " quiet waiting for the dqws which are to bring
on the longea-for harvest"; adding, "each little advance in the way
of truth, each little turning to ways of righteousness, fills our souls
with joy and gratitude." This joy was experienced at the close of the
last term, when a number of the girls expressed a desire to be num-
bered with the people of God. As this was the first shower of bless-
ing upon the school, it is noted with profound gratitude.
The experimental stage in the school may be regarded as past.
No difficulty is now found in getting the parents to sign papers agree-
ing to place their children in the school for a given number of years.
Progress has also been made in the direction of unbinding the feet^
about one-half of the girls in the schools having their feet unbound.
Twenty-four girls and four women have been enrolled as boarders
during the year, and twelve girls as day pupils, making forty in all.
The report says : " Among the little girls who are turning their faces
Zionward is one who was intended by her mother for a Buddhist nun.
She was brought to me with her head shaven, her feet unbound, and
her ears without rings, as those intended for nuns must not bind their
feet or pierce their ears. I prevailed on the mother to let the child's
hair grow, and of course I was only too glad that the feet were free as
God made them. The mother has told me since that she will give
the little girl over to our church. She seems to look upon it just as
giving it over to another religious order." Mrs. Leaman meets a class
of women twice a week for reading, some of them being servants in
the mission families, others mothers of the girls, and still others outside
heathen women. Fourteen have been in attendance during the year,
and it is hoped that ten or twelve of them will soon be able to read
the Word of God. One of these women has applied for baptism.
The Boys' Boarding-School conducted by Mr. Abbey reports a roll
of eleven pupils. The school is intended to keep in view the training
of Christian helpers and teachers. The religious instruction includes
daily recitation in the Bible, Old Testament history, Dr. Corbett's

CENTRAL CHINA— NANKING. 65
Catechism, the Westminster Catechism, etc. In connection with
morning worship, some time is devoted each day to the expounding of
the Scriptures. There has been a decided religious interest among the
scholars. At the spring communion four of them were baptized, pub-
licly confessing Christ. One of them before taking the step was told
by his mother that he might be required to pass through some severe
trials. His reply was, no matter what happened he desired to confess
Christ, adding, " If they kill my body they could not kill my soul."
Nanking continues to be regarded by our missionaries as an import-
ant centre for educational work. In this they are evidently sustained
by other missionary Boards working in this former capital of China.
In this great literary centre the Methodist Episcopal Church of the
United States is about to establish a University with a foundation of
$200,000, and the Disciples are also securing a site on which to erect
a college building. Compared with these magnificent enterprises our
educational plant is certainly insignificant. It is claimed that the
Mandarin spoken in Nanking is the most useful in China, being readily
understood by one hundred millions of people. The work done here
in Christian education, therefore, cannot be regarded as having a mere
local interest.

MISSIONS TO THE CHINESE AND JAPANESE IN
THIS COUNTRY.
San Francisco : mission begun 1852 ; mission axy laborers— Rev. Messrs. Augustus
W. Loomis, D.D., and A. J. Kerr and their wives ; Miss Maggie Culbertson, Miss £. R.
Cable, and Miss M. M. Baddn ; three teachers in English ; three native helpers.
Among the Japanese : one native s::perintendent and two native helpers.
Oakland : mission begun 1877 ; two teachers ; one native helper.
Los Angeles : Rev. I. M. Condit and wife ; two native helpers ; four teachers in
Eni^lish.
Portland, Oregon : Rev. W. S. Holt and wife.
New York : one native superintendent.
San Francisco,
The work among the Chinese in California still labors under the
great discouragements which affect the social and political status of
these people. A change of administration in the Government
had excited the hopes of the Chinese that the Exclusion Law would
be modified, and that people, even though laborers — formerly resi-
dent here, but now in China — would be permitted to come back,
and that all who are now in this country might go and come at pleas-
ure. These hopes, however, have been disappointed ; the Exclusion
Law is still carried out ; and, from the indications of the public press,
the anti-Chinese feeling is spreading through other cities as well as
San Francisco, especially against the laundrymen. The Chinese
population is stead'ly decreasing. Every steamer carries back from
two to five hundred.
The morning and evening services in the Chinese church are well
attended, though not quite as largely as in previous years. The Sab-
bath-school is still well sustained, and the evening mission school for
boys and young men has also given much encouragement. One young
roan, Ng Poon Chew, who has been studying in the mission school for
some time in preparation for the ministry, is so far advanced that last
September he was able to enter the Presbyterian Theological Seminary
in San Francisco, where he has proved himself a bright and promising
student. He still keeps up his Chinese study, and looks forward with
the confident hope of becoming a missionary to his native land.
The missionaries in San Francisco have been called upon as in for-
mer years to act as agents for missionaries in China, Japan, and Siam,
— ^forwarding various bills of goods, at the same time that they have
bad no easy task in rendering assistance to those missionaries who
were going and coming through the Golden Gate.

68 CHINESE AND JAFaNESE IN U. S.— SAN FRANCISCO.
During the summer. Dr. and Mrs. Loomis spent some time in Santa
Cruz and San Jose, and Mr. Kerr has visited Sacramento, Santa Rosa,
Stockton, Placerville, etc. In many places he preached on the street
to goodly numbers, and embraced every opportunity to reach the
Chinamen.
A promising Sabbath-school was organized in the Presbyterian
church at Stockton during the year, and at Placerville arrangements
have been made for a day-school for Chinese children born in that .
town.
Six adults have been received into the church in San Francisco and
four children have been baptized. The present membership is 78.
The contributions during the year have amounted to $502.30.
The Chinese Woman* s Home. — The Home for Chinese girls con-
ducted by the Occidental Woman's Board, has been in existence fifteen
years, and has rescued and sheltered 260 persons, — a noble record
surely. There were 35 inmates at the beginning of the year 1889 ;
28 more were received during the twelve months following, making a
total of 65 for the year. Eleven have been removed from the Home
by marriage, and two have died. Most of those rescued and brought
to this retreat were slaves, and represented a money value of from $500
to $2,000 each. The report of Miss Culbertson says : " In nearly
every case we have hard legal battles to fight in the courts to retain
these girls, for the Chinese slave-dealer does not relinquish his chattel
without the fiercest struggle." An illustration is given in the case of
a little seven-year-old girl, Kum Yoke. The report sayS :
** In the latter part of September she was rescued from what is
known in Chinatown as the * Beehive house,' by the officer for pre-
vention of cruelty to children. Her scant and filthy garments were
infested with vermin, and her little body was bruised and blackened
by the frequent beatings she received. Kum Yoke's 'alleged mother'
was a gambler, and her paramour an opium-smoker, and any ill luck
that attended them they attributed to the child, and her young life was
made miserable by their cruelty ; the excuse for their brutality was,
that she had a bad habit of biting her finger-nails, which according to
Chinese notion was as bad as taking poison.
" We obtained immediate letters of guardianship, which the * alleged
parents * set to work to have revoked, carrying the case from one court
to another, and now after a period of four months the case has re-
cently been decided in our favor. The closing words of the judge's
decision published in the San Francisco Law Journal are these : * To
take the child from the Mission Home would be very much on a par,
as to reasoning, with withdrawal ng a lad from the high-school to fritter
away his life in the purlieus of filth, vice, and crime. The motion to
revoke letters of guardianship must be denied.' Kum Yoke is an in-
teresting child, and takes kindly to her new surroundings."
There are at present seven Christian girls in the Home, who assist as
interpreters in religious instruction, and who give lessons in the day-
school.
Among other results of this good work there are thirty-five homes
Digitized by VjOOQIC
CHINESE AND JAPANESE IN U. S.— SAN FRANCISCO. 69
on the Pacific coast, which have been created by the marriage of these
rescued girls.
The report urges the great need of enlarged accommodations, not
only for the regular inmates, but for special occasions. As an illus-
tration of this need, the U. S. Court recently sent ten Chinese women
to the Home, as guests, pending certain legal investigations as to their
rights.
Work in Chinese Families, — Miss Emma R. Cable's work of
house-to-house visitation has been carried forward as usual, 133
families having been visited and instructed. Miss Cable's methods
cover all that pertains to the personal, domestic, social, and religious
life of the households which she is permitted to enter. A systematic
course is pursued, so that the instruction may be followed up to
hopeful results. In her parish are 36 women with small feet. In
the case of girls, the influence of Miss Cable has frequently been
etfectual in the abolition of the practice. There are 18 girls at pres-
ent still subject to this cruelty, instead of 30 as at a former time.
They are beginning to *' like big feet, all same as Shing Shang
(teacher), so I can go street." One hundred and fifty-six girls have
been taught and visited, ranging from three to twelve years of age ;
58 of these have been under instruction, and with good results.
Only seven adult women have been brought under systematic instruc-
tion, though often the mothers learn from their children. " Fortunately,"
says Miss Cable, '^ the number of slave children is decreasing from
year to year, and I observe a more humane treatment of them, as the
owners are conscious that we have a vigilant eye over them, and the
Home acts as a corrective. It is and has been a satisfaction that we
have been enabled to gather some of these children into the Home.
We frequently encounter children in the alleys and dens of vice, who
are there in defiance of our laws ; and could we induce the proper
authorities to take hold of these children, we would not be compelled
to see the class of little girls whom we taught in Bartlett Alley already
in the possession of procuresses and in dens of iniquity at the age of
thirteen and fourteen. This is the branch of our work which demands
the most earnest attention. To-day I have in my home a young girl
that Miss MacFarland and myself rescued from one of the lowest dens
in Cum Cook Alley, a girl eighteen years of age. She is attractive
in appearance, of superior mind, marked individuality, and of a refine-
ment of manner which it is difikult to tell how she acquired. Bought
in China for $300, and landed in defiance of our laws, she was sold in
Chinatown for $2,500, and placed in one of the many shameless and
nameless dens that infest that locality. She was at the time but four-
teen years of age. Of the bargain and sale there can be no possible
doubt, for in addition to living witnesses of her enslavement I hold the
bill of sale covering the details of the iniquitous transaction. In the
house from which she was taken there were five other girls held as
chattels, toward whom my heart yearned, and I would gladly have
rescued them if I could. Of such houses there are probably not less
than one hundred scattered through Chinatown, and recent indications
point to a rapid increase. I respectfully but very earnestly submit

that the time has arrived when the Church should take hold of
this crying evil and break it up. What is wanted is a propelling
power behind the officers of the law that shall force them to action.
This the Christian people should supply. The laws are all right ; the
non-enforcement of them is all wrong. Human slavery is abolished,
but it is maintained as a living, hideous, death^ealing, soul-destroying
fact all the same.
"In this connection I would call attention to a decision just rendered
by Judge Gibson, of Alameda County, by which one of the slave-
holders has been sentenced to pay a fine of $300, and su£fer twelve
months' imprisonment. In speaking of the state of things in San
Francisco the learned judge used brave and noble language, every
word of which my ten years' experience in Chinatown enables me to
endorse and approve. He said : * This conviction may be a bene-
ficial lesson in restraining such unlawful acts in Alameda County.
The Chinese woman, I believe, was held in slavery, and the defend-
ant is known to have deprived her of her liberty. We do not want
to see the practices that hold sway in San Francisco indulged in
Alameda County. My view is that the majority of officers in San
Francisco's Chinatown ought to be behind the bars of the State prison.
They are working in with the vilest criminals unhung. There are
bribery and corruption there, and a worse form of slavery than that
which existed in the South before the war. Chinatown is a disgrace to
civilization, a menace to all decency, and it ought to be cleansed.
We must use the law here to protect Alameda County from the crying
shame that spoils the fame of San Francisco. I think that Lem Share
is guilty, and I deny the motion.' The defendant was then sentenced
to one year's imprisonment in the county jail, and to pay a fine of
$300."
The Occidental boys'-school has had during the year an enrollment
of from 35 to 40. The illness of Miss Baskin during a part of the year
somewhat interfered with the full and regular attendance. During the
absence of Miss Baskin on account of illness. Miss Jennie Wisner,
late of the Canton Mission, was temporarily employed.
One of the older pupils, Ah Chew, was dismissed in October to
become a student in the Theological Seminary, where his progress is
reported as most satisfactory. His object is to carry the Gospel to his
countrymen in China. In addition to school-work, Miss Bsiskin has
been able to do something in the line of house-to-house visitation.
The Japanese Mission In San Francisoo.
The work of the Presbyterian Board among the Japanese in Cali-
fornia is full of interest and promise. All the indications show that
the time has come when more vigorous measures should be adopted
and a more generous support accorded. There are said to be not less
than 2,000 Japanese on the coast. Most of these are found in the
city of San Francisco and in the suburban towns. More than half of
the entire number are those who have been baptized by missionaries
in Japan, and a large per cent, of these have been connected with the
congregations of the Union Presbyterian church in their native land.

JAPANESE— SAN FRANCISCO. 7 1
The resignation of Dr. and Mrs. E. A. Sturge was severely felt by
the Japanese Mission. For nearly three years they had devoted them-
selves most earnestly to the evangelization of these young men, who
are coming in increasing numbers. They were so highly esteemed
and beloved by the young men that it seemed impossible for a time to
fill their place. Mr. A. Hatori, a licentiate of the United Church of
Christ, was sent early in the year to take charge of the work.
The Japanese Presbyterian church in San Francisco numbers 57
members. Connected with it is a Young Men's Christian Association
of about 75 members. The building in which Sabbath services
are held is rented by the Young Men's Christian Associatioa, and
the only expenses to the Board during the past year have been
$600, paid as salary to Mr. Hatori, an undergraduate of Princeton
Theological Seminary, who has been employed for the year, and an al-
lowance of $25 per month toward the employment of assistant teach-
ers. Of this sum $12.50 per month has been paid to a young Japan-
ese teacher; the other $12.50, supplemented by gifts of the Japanese
church, has been devoted to the employment of an English teacher.
Mr- Hatori has preached twice on the Sabbath with great acceptance,
and the only limit to his congregations has been that of the narrow
and insufficient accommodations furnished for the purpose. The care-
ful preparation of his sermons and the conduct of religious meetings
during the week, together with the labor of conducting a night-school
on every evening of the week except Saturday, has been so great that
he has been unable to devote the time and labor which seemed to be
necessary to looking up the large accessions to the Japanese popula-
tion which are made from month to month by every arriving steamer.
It seems all-important that in addition to the utmost labor that Mr.
Hatori can periform, there should be employed an American mis-
sionary who shall take the general conduct of the mission, look after
all finances, assume the management of the school, and devote him-
self as far as possible to the work of gathering in the scores of young
men, sons of the churches in Japan, and bringing them under the in-
fluence of the mission. The Methodist Mission has purchased am-
ple quarters for its Japanese work and made abundant provision
not only for the church services, but also for the wants of the Young
People's Association, or as they call it, the Gospel Society. Partly as
a result of this better accommodation and more thoroughly equipped
mission force, the Methodist Japanese church numbers over 100 mem-
bers.
As an example of our urgent need of enlarged accommodations,
a recent steamer brought 22 young men from Japan, of whom 11 had
letters to the Presbyterian Mission. "They came," says a letter,
^ expecting to find accommodations and to be taken under the care
of the mission, but not one of them could be accommodated. Cheap
lodgings which could be rented to these men for a time at least would
be a very great help to the work. The young men themselves have
been raising a subscription, which now amounts to about $800, for
the erection of a church of their own, but unaided as they are by the
ChiistiaD churches about them, they have little prospect of success."

J2 JAPANESE — SAN FRANCISCO.
A better outlay could scarcely be made by any Christian man of
means, than in assisting these young men to provide in San Francisco
a church home for their countrymen, in the present and in the time to
come.
These young Japanese represent the most vigorous element in the
churches of Japan. Except through the influence of the San Fran-
cisco Missions they will be likely to receive but little fellowship
and encouragement from Christian sources. The complaint fre-
quently made by them is that their first experience in Christian
America is a surprise and a shock, and there is great danger that in
too many instances this may be followed by apathy and doubt, and
final apostasy ; while, on the other hand, if they are received with
cordial fellowship, and the opportunity so peculiar and so favorable
for effort among them is properly embraced, they may be sent back
to their country as virtual missionaries in whatever pursuit they may
be engaged. It seems almost invidious to compare one department
of missionary work with another when there is so much demanded by
all, but when one considers that this Japanese population consists
wholly of vigorous and spirited young men, more than half of whom
have received Christian baptism, who come to our shores to learn and
who must in the very necessities of the case learn either good or evil
and receive impressions which shall be edifying or paralyzing, it would
seem that no form of missionary work in any mission or any coun-
tr)' could make a stronger appeal to the attention and support of the
Church than this. As an example of the influence which these men,
properly cared for, may be expected to receive and carry back with
them, the following instance is thus given by Mr. Kerr :
" A recent steamer carried back to Japan one of our elders, Dr.
Masayasu Kawakami. He was in some respects a very noteworthy
man. In 1876, when only 17 years of age, he took part in the
Maebara rebellion against the Japanese Government. He was arrested
and imprisoned, but on the overthrow of the revolt was released.
" The purpose of the rebellion, as he himself declares, was to exclude
foreigners, Western civilization, and, in particular, the Christian religion
from Japan. When he sau' that the new order of things was bound to
prevail, like a wise man he went about to prepare for it. He studied
foreign medicine in Tokyo, and was admitted to practise in 1882.
"In the spring of 1885 he came to San Francisco for the double pur-
pose of learning English and pursuing an advanced course in medicine.
He was invited to our mission soon after his arrival in the city, and
he*there found several young men similarly situated to himself. Mrs.
Sturge taught him every evening, and Dr. Sturge gave him special in-
structions during the day. He was converted and united with the
church by baptism and confession of faith in the fall of that year. He
subsequently entered the medical department of the State University,
where he studied for two years.
" He opened an office for practice on one of the principal streets
and had certain hours in every week when he gave free medical at-
tendance to poor Japanese. " About a year ago, by an almost
unanimous vote, he was elected ruling elder in the church, and until
Digitized by VjOOQIC
OAKLAND, CAL.— SACRAMENTO, CAL. 73
his departure continued to serve the church faithfully. He at
length yielded to his family's repeated entreaties that he should go
home, and he sailed a few months ago. Before going he got a letter
of dismissal, that he might unite with the Presbyterian church in
Tokyo, but he particularly requested that I should give him a letter
to one of the small churches where there would be plenty to do.
The large churches, he said, have many workers."
Seven young men were received into the Japanese church. Thirty-
four united with the Christian Association. Ninety-four have been re-
ceived into the Japanese church since its beginning in 1885. The
present membership is sixty-five ; of these, twelve are absent in Japan
or in other parts of this country. The contributions for all purposes
have amounted to $1,174.
The evening mission school for Japanese in Alameda is taught by
Miss Garrette, daughter of the pastor of the church. The young men
respond to their teacher's zeal and enthusiasm in a delightful manner.
The weekly prayer-meeting is well attended. The contributions
amounted to $45.
There is a large and increasing number of Japanese in Oakland, for
whom special work should be undertaken at once. It is desirable to
rent a house sufficiently large, and also to engage a teacher for the
evening school. It is believed that after the second or third month
the Japanese would be ready to assume the entire rent and other ex-
pense, leaving only the salary of the teacher to be paid by the Board.
Oakland.
The Chinese church has suffered even more seriously than that of
San Francisco from removals. The present number of church members
is 44. Fifteen of these, however, are absent ; seven in China and the
others in different parts of this country. The remaining twenty-nine
have been faithful, and, considering that they are house-servants, their
contributions, which amounted to $257, have been generous. During
the year two were received on profession of faith and one by letter.
Eight were dismissed to churches in Canton.
Sacramento,
At Sacramento the work has been carried on under some difficulty.
Charges of unchristian conduct were preferred against two of the
prominent members. It was found impossible to secure definite
proofs either to acquit or convict, and this unsettled condition of af-
fairs has operated against the work.
The evening and Sabbath schools have been prosperous. Excite-
ment and differences of opinion are subsiding. A day-school has been
opened for Chinese children, of whom there are fifteen of school age.
The school is taught by Miss Lulu Earl, daughter of a Chinese mer-
chanty who has been for a long time in business at Sacramento. She
was graduated last spring from the city High-School, and is a devoted

Christian. Her home is still heathen, but her influence in it and upon
other Chinese women is excellent. The school is under the super-
vision of Mrs. J. E. Wheeler, wife of the pastor of Westminster Pres-
byterian church. Mrs. Wheeler provides for all necessary expenses,
and is untiring in her efforts on behalf of the Chinese. The young
men last summer refitted their mission-rooms at considerable expense.
They have also been liberal during the year to various benevolences,
the amount of contributions being $220. Two promising young men
recently went to San Francisco and were baptized,

The reopening of the mission, which was contemplated in May last,
has been postponed on account of heavy reductions in the appropria-
tions. There are some faithful Chinese members in the place who
very much desire the mission to be reopened. The estimates will
provide for this, and it is hoped that the appropriation will be made.
Santa Rosa.
Good work has been accomplished during the year at Santa Rosa.
Mr. and Mrs. Wilson, Mr. and Mrs. Smythe, Miss Chase, Mrs. Pit-
blado, and others have been faithful friends to the young men. The
Chinese themselves meet all expenses, and have in addition given lib-
erally to other benevolences. The night and Sabbath schools have
been carried on during the year with a small but steady attendance.
Two young men were baptized, and eight united with the Christian
Association, of whom five or six are reported as about ready for bap-
tism. The contributions have amounted to $109 50.
Napa,
The school has suffered from removals, and particularly 'from the re-
turn to China of Lu Ling, to whose Christian influence all were in-
debted. He was the leader of the Chinese Christians and was beloved
by Americans and Chinese. The school has been maintained two
nights in the week. The little church belonging to the Board at Napa
is in great need of a roof. The cost is estimated at $175.
San Rafael.
Miss Walker has continued her earnest work in the night-school.
Six of her scholars united with the Christian Association in prepara-
tion for an open profession of their faith. The Sabbath-school and
prayer-meeting have been encouraging. Elder C. H. Fish and Rev.
Arthur Crosby have done much by their teaching and kind words.
The scholars meet a part of the expense of the school. The contribu-
tions for all purposes were $191.

CALIFORNIA— ALAMEDA, LOS ANGELES. 75
Alameda.
The progress made under Mrs. Fraser's continued labors has been
marked. The town is considered a desirable place for family resi-
dences, and the number of Chinese servants has accordingly increased.
A larger place for services has long been desired. An eligible lot, 50
by 150 feet, close to Mrs. Fraser*s house, was purchased by Dr.
I^toomis last winter, — one-half of the cost being a contribution from
Mrs. l^omis, the other half being given by the Board. This generous
gift of Mrs. Loomis really effected the good result.
Los Angeles,
From the Los Angeles field Mr. Condit reports a total church
membership of 65. Fourteen have been added during the year. The
whole number received at that station from the beginning is 81. The
Sabbath-school pupils number 66, and the pupils in day and night
schools 218. The contributions during the year amounted to $771.78.
Mr. and Mrs. Condit are the only missionaries of the Board in this
Southern field. Five helpers are reported, and among those who have
given instruction in the night-schools there are reported the names of
Mrs. S. J. £. Noble, Miss Ida L. Boone, Mrs. H. £. Harrison, Miss
C. C. Twitchell, Miss G. Harrison, Mrs. M. A. McKenzie, Mrs.
Johnson, and Mrs. !-». P. Bidgood. The total expense of this force
of teachers has been only $117 per month, less than double the
amount of contributions from the churches at Los Angeles and the
other stations.
The financial reaction which has occurred in Los Angeles has, by its
interference with business employments, seriously affected the work
among the Chinese — diminishing the numbers there residing.
The Morrison Band^ established by Mrs. Condit, has been doing
good work. It has thirty members, and has generously contributed
for the support of a native helper in China. A kindergarten in China-
town, taught by Mrs. Harrison, numbers 25 children.
Mrs. Condit reports at Los Angeles 23 women and children in-
structed in 16 families. Ten of the women read and study the Bible
in English and Chinese. Seven had been at one time or another in
one of the Homes in San Francisco. On February 21st a meeting for
women only was established. Twelve persons have been present at
each meeting, and three or four have led in prayer.
A kindergarten was opened in October for boys and girls. Nine
children are regular pupils.
Ten of the women read the English-Chinese Bible.
Rev. Dr. Noble, of San Diego, says that the work there ** has cer-
tainly vindicated its right to exist." Ninety-eight names are on the
school-roll, and there have been nine baptisms. The average attend-
ance at night-school is twenty-five. The same number is reported
in the Sabbath-school. Twenty-three Chinamen are now members of
the First Presbyterian church.

Santa Barbara.
At this place the Chinese have their church-home in a neat chapel
belonging to the Board. There have been fifty pupils in attendance
at the evening school. Ten Christian Chinamen are connected with
the mission, of whom three were baptized during the year. The Ad-
ams Mission Band devotes the last Sunday evening of each month to a
missionary concert, in which the work done in various lands is consid-
ered. Miss Twitchell continues her work as teacher of the evening
school and the Sunday Bible-class. The contributions have amounted
to $260 ; of this, $74 was given for foreign missions, the remainder
for congregational uses. Two persons who have recently been bap-
tized are undergoing great trial in the opposition of their friends at
home. They have received a letter with 4,000 characters, in which
their kindred characterize their Christian profession as *' much foolish,"
and strive to turn them backward.
Portland,
The work of Rev. Mr. Holt has been fairly prosperous.
Two new schools and centres of influence have been opened in the
Chinese work during the year — one at Ashland and another at Salem,
Oregon. A Home has been established in Portland for Chinese
women and girls. This is under the care of the North Pacific Wom-
an's Board, which has made a most vigorous and laudable beginning.
Seven inmates have been received.
Nine teachers are employed in the night-schools, in which there are
135 pupils. The number of native Christians is 19; added during the
year, 3. Amount of contributions, $140.
Ntw York,
The work among the Chinese in New York under the care of Mr.
K. Huie, has been continued with good results. The average attend-
ance in the Sabbath- school has been 35. The Sabbath evening ser-
vice, at which Mr. Huie has preached in the Cantonese, has averaged
20. The number has been reduced by the removal of some of the
most efficient men. Two of these are in China, where they are doing
good service among their countrymen. One of them, as reix>rted last
year, had given a lot in his native community for the erection of a
chapel. Recent letters from China show that a sufficient amount of
money has been pledged for the erection of this structure.
Among the contributions made by the Chinese school in this city,
$50 was appropriated toward this building. A native preacher is
already at work in the community, and when the building shall be
completed there is every reason to expect a more efficient and ex-
tended work.
Two men from the New York school are now employed as mission-
aries, one by a Baptist and the other by an Episcopalian Society.
Three are engaged as assistant superintendents in different schools in
New York and Brooklyn. Mr. Huie has been called upon to do a

good deal of general work in the interest of Chinamen in this city.
Thirteen persons have been assisted in time of sickness, and frequent
instances occur in which interposition is necessary on the part,of those
viio are imposed upon by Americans. One man has united with the
church during the year, and there are several more who are hoping to
do so soon. During the year $256.07 have been contributed, namely,
$60 for the Johnstown sufferers, $50 for the church in San Ui, China,
and $19 toward the erection of a chapel in Alameda. One hundred
and twenty-seven dollars have been contributed by the Sabbath-
school

MISSION IN GUA TEMALA.
Organised in i88a : station, Guatemala City, about 60 miles from the seaport of San
Jose ; laborers— Rev. Messrs. £. U. Haymaker and D. Y. Iddings and their wives ; Miss
M. L. Hammond and Miss Imogene Stimeis.
The year in this mission has been marked by aggressiveness and
substantial gain. The arrival of Mr. and Mrs. Iddings in August
relieved Mr. Haymaker of part of the heavy burden resting upon him,
and which at one time seriously threatened his health. The work in
the capital has steadily advanced both materially and spiritually. The
church which has been in process of erection, though not yet com-
pleted, is almost ready for inside finishing, an advance in the price of
material requiring an additional appropriation to make it ready for
occupancy. Services in English have been continued every Sabbath
morning, conducted mainly by Mr. Iddings since his arrival on the
field, while Spanish services have been held on Sabbath and Wednes-
day evenings. The attendance at the latter has more than doubled
during the past six months. With a view to attracting the attention
both of the English and Spanish.speaking people the mission has
adopted a plan which includes the scanning of the arrivals at hotels,
systematic visitation, the establishing of a normal Bible-class, stated
visits to hospitals, and the holding of special services now and then
during the year. The Sabbath-school numbers fifty members, includ-
ing both English-speaking and Spanish-speaking people. Owing to
the peculiar difficulties in the early history of the church, the organ-
ization has been allowed to lie dormant for the past year or two, but
now in the judgment of the mission the time has come when it ought
to be revived, the undesirable members having dropped out, and those
remaining giving evidence of a quickened spiritual life.
Considering the smallness of the available force, a good deal of
attention has been given to evangelistic work. During the year two
trips were made through the Eastern or Chiquimula circuit, the
extreme points reached being two days from the capital. An itiner
ating tour was made by one of the students to Quezaltenango, the
second city of the republic, some four days from Guatemala City. It
is reported to be a good centre for work among the Indian tribes, and
therefore it is very desirable that it should be occupied at an early day.
Many villages were visited during the itinerating tours, and large num-
bers of copies of the Scriptures sold and subscriptions received for the
little religious paper published by the mission. Some opposition was
encountered, one priest having burned Bibles in the village of San
Arate, and Uie fanaticism of the people, led by two priests, having

made it impossible to attempt work in the village of Villa Naeva.
The most systematic effort at persecution was made in the village of
San Rosita, some two leagues from Guatemala City. As members of
the town council and the government secretary favored the attempt to
establish Protestant worship, an effort was made to remove them, but
failed. At first meetings were held in the schooUhouse, but as this
was likely to involve the local authorities, meetings were discontinued,
and the work was carried on privately. A lot has since been pur-
chased and a small building is being erected on it by those interested
in the work. When it is completed, it is expected that public worship
will be resumed.
The Girls' School {CoUgio Americano^ has had forty names enrolled
during the year, including two small boys. Of these, ten were free
pupils and the others paid tuition. The experiment authorized at the
beginning of the year to open a boarding department on a small scale
can scarcely be said to have succeeded, as only one pupil has thus far
been received. In the school rich and poor meet together, the daugh-
ter of the President of the Republic, " a bright though unassuming
little girl," sitting side by side with the barefooted girls in the class.
Miss Stimers, in addition to her other duties in the school, has con-
ducted with growing interest a kindergarten department for the smaller
children. A permanent home for the school, which would cost from
$5,000 to $7,000 in addition to the price of a lot, is greatly needed.
Miss Hammond in reporting the work of the school laments the lack
of provision for the education of boys. She writes : ** One of our
little boys has been put in a Roman Catholic school in Switzerland. I
felt doubly pained at this because the father said before sending him
away, * If you could continue to care for boys we would keep our boy
at home. We were perfectly satisfied as long as he could be with
you, but there is no other school in the city where we care to trust
him.' " Although it is understood that boys are not taken, as a rule,
some twelve or fifteen applications had been made by parents to have
such received. Since the beginning of the new year the mission has
recommended the opening of a school for boys.
The El Mensajero, a little monthly paper published by the mission,
has been issued throughout the year, but is discontinued for the pres-
ent until the mission is in better shape to publish. In this connection
Mr. Haymaker writes : " Fifteen hundred copies of a ten-page tract,
giving a compend of our belief, were printed, many of which have
already been distributed ; also, 2,500 copies of the ten commandments
on small slips for general distribution."
The field occupied by this mission is not only large and easily ac-
cessible, but our missionaries are the only organized force at work in
the interest of Protestant Christianity. In addition to the white Span-
ish-speaking people there are multitudes of the Ladino, or mixed race,
who are Roman Catholics by profession, and yet many of whom have
no religion at all. It is from this mixed race that the controlling power
of the liberal party in the government comes. In addition to these,
away from the chief centres of population, and the main lines of travel,
are to be found the Indian aborigines, who have never yielded to the
Digitized by VjOOQIC

power of Rome. They practice their mysterious rites, incantations,
and turkey sacrifices on the mountain-tops, as they did before Spain
and Rome united in the conquest of Guatemala. The occupation of
this Republic for Christ means the extending of evangelistic efforts to
the Indian aborigines, as well as to the Ladinos or mixed race.

Lodiana and Furrakhabad.
[These missions occupy provinces in the northwest of India, with stations extending
from Allahabad to Rawal Pindi, 900 miles apart, on or near the line of the chief rail-
roads. The same lang:uages are mostly in use, and the same forms of reli^ous belief —
heathen and Mohammedan^<:hiefly prevail. The methods of the missions m thdr work
are also the same in both missions, and so their stations and reports are here presented in
regular sequence. Their division into two missions is mainly for general and local ad-
ministration.]

Lodiana and Furrttlcliabad Rlissions.
Changes in the List of Laborers. — The Rev. William Calderwood de-
parted this life May 22, 1889. He was in the 65th year of his age and the
34th of his ministry. Mrs. Calderwood expects to continue her efficient
missionary work, removing to Dehra as her station. The Rev. C. B.
Newton, D.D., and his family arrived in this country in May, and
with improved health he returned to India in October, leaving his wife
and children in this country for the education of the children. Dr.
Seward regained her usual health, and also returned to her work
at Allahabad Mr. and Mrs. McComb returned to this country for
health, and gained strength from the voyage. They were led to en-
gage in home missionary work in Nevada. This work is entered
upon provisionally. The climate may be of service to them. The
question of returning to India is in abeyance for the present. The
Rev. Howard Fisher went to India in October and was stationed at
Rawal Pindi by the Lodiana Mission. The Rev. Henry C. Velte en-
tered on married life at Lahore. Miss Jessie Dunlap and Miss Elma
Donaldson, new missionaries ; Miss M. M. Given and Miss C. C.
Downs, returning; and later, Miss A. L. Orbison and Miss M. £.
Bailey, new missionaries, were sent to India, — the last to Woodstock,
Landour ; Miss Donaldson to Dehra, Miss Orbison to Lahore, Misses
Given, Downs, and Dunlap to Jalandhar. In several cases these su-

tions have been assigned for a year, while the new laborers are learn-
ing the language. The list of new appointments includes the names
of Prof. J. G. Gilbertson and his wife. Mr. Gilbertson, M.A., a gradu-
ate of Edinburgh University, has occupied a professorship in the Chris-
tian College of Lahore, and he is also an elder in the newly organ-
ized Presbyterian church in that city.
Two sets of annual reports are, as a rule, received by the Board
from the missionaries in the field, — one from each station endorsed by
the mission, the other personal and usually brief. In the following
pages, the statistical information, furnished in the station reports and
here summarized, will give a general idea of the character of much of
the work and show its importance. Added to this statistical informa-
tion, so far as received, notices from the reports generally will convey a
further impression of the evangelizing work which God is giving to his
servants to fulfil in behalf of the Church in one of the greatest mission-
ary fields.

In the three Leper Asylums, which for years have been fostered
by the missionaries, a sympathetic, discouraging, but not hopeless
work is still conducted. The Leper Asylum at Sabathu has, from
the beginning many years ago, been chiefly supported by the Board,

and our brethren, foreign and native, have been its religious teachers
and care-takers. The same remark is applicable to the I^per Asylum
at Ambala, supported partly by the. Board ; and also, in good meas-
ure, to the I>eper Asylum at Allahabad,^-which, however, is pecuni-
arily supported by local funds. About loo adult lepers are usually
in these three asylums, with their wives and children. They have
long enjoyed the Gospel ministries of our brethren, and in many in-
stances they have been led to Christ as their Saviour, while their poor
children have enjoyed suitable education.

Rawal Pindu
The senior missionary at this station, Mr. Ullmann, now over forty
years in this service, was seriously ill during the past year, and was
twice brought so (low that his recovery was hardly expected, but he
was spared for continued labors. As acting pastor of the church, he
was relieved in March by Mr. Rala Ram, a graduate of the Theologi-
cal Seminary at Saharanpore, who, as a licentiate preacher, was for a
year in charge of the work in the Hoshyarpore district under the care
of Mr. Chatterjee. The Rawal Pindi church was led to give him a
united call, and to provide his salary and all expenses of the church
and burial-ground. The missionaries had previously felt justi6ed in
having the charge of this congregation, though ill able to fulfil all its
duties in connection with their other and more general work ; but they
are grateful for the good promise of the church in its now settled min-
istry. Mr. Ullmann will aid the young pastor in some parts of his work
for the present, but he continues in other lines his varied labors. Both
he and Mr. R. Morrison give attention to the schools, the latter spend-
ing four or five hours daily in their instruction. During some months
in the hot season Mr. Morrison for the first time was at Murree, a
sanitarium in the Hills, some twenty miles from Rawal Pindi, where he
was occupied with useful work. Both these brethren speak of labors
abundant. Mr. Fisher was warmly welcomed on his arrival at the end
of the year.
Lahore,
In this large city, the capital of the Punjab, the work of missions
has continued to advance in its extent, success, and promise of still
further influence. "The nine schools for boys enroll 686 Hindus,
300 Mohammedans, 82 Sikhs, and 4 Christians," " Until recently
there were but two High-Schools in the city ; now there are five.
Nevertheless, our mission school has steadily maintained its position
and popularity, while its influence as an evangelistic agency is probably
greater than ever before." As an important educational centre, La-
hore has now the Government Anglo-Indian, the Mohammedan, the
Hindu, and the Aryan Colleges, which contain a large number of stu-
dents. These will all be co-laborers, in greater or less degree, with
our Christian College, it may be hoped, or, at any rate, be greatly in-
fluenced by it. It is now well established and well manned It is con-

ducted on a moderate scale of expense, which it is hoped will be con-
tinued, but It will need some additional funds. It reports 137 stu-
dents at the end of the year. "Religious instruction has been imparted
to all the classes. In some cases the Bible alone has been the text-
book during the period devoted to Christian teaching"; "in others
this has been supplemented b^ a study of Butler's Analogy, and in
others by the discussion of topics drawn from the Holy Scriptures."
In October two of the new buildings for the College were formally
0|)ened by the President before a large assemblage. The service
was honored by the presence and gratifying address of the Viceroy of
India, and the presence also of the Governor of the Punjab. With a
faculty of thoroughly missionary professors, and a good degree of pub-
lic interest among the people, the Church may expect blessed results
from this College, if God still favors it. Toward the expenses of the
schools and the College tuition fees were received amounting to over
^3«ooo last year. The report of the Lahore station refers also to eight-
een schools for girls attended by 394 scholars ; and a school for Chris-
tian girls of nearly 80 scholars " under the auspices of the Indian Fe-
male Normal School and Instruction Society has been carried on in
connection with our mission " with very encouraging success, as stated
by Miss Keay, the lady superintendent.
The preaching services to non-Christians by the native preachers in
the villages near the city and by the missionaries and Christian laymen
in public places in the city have been kept up with interest. Numer-
ous public lectures were delivered to English-speaking, non-Christian
audiences by missionaries and other gentlemen, which were always
well attended. In the mission dispensaries over 39,000 applications
were made for treatment and over 1,100 minor operations were per-
formed ; of these, nearly 1 7,000 applications were by females, and
nearly 400 minor operations. The medical services are always pre-
ceded by evangelizing instruction. The female dispensary is under
the charge of Mrs. Isa Das, M.D., whose husband is the doctor in
charge of the general dispensary, where he often preaches the Gospel
to the poor assembled to receive alms.
The native congregation is indebted foe two Sabbath services and
one on Wednesday evenings to the Rev. Drs. Newton (acting pastor)
and Forman, aided by others, — Dr. Ewing, Mr.- Velte, Dr. Isa Char-
ran, and some of the elders. The Union church, with services in
English, at the request of its members, was organized as a Presbyte-
rian church. The services are well attended. Lectures are reported
by Dr. Orbison, and the Indian Christian Association, of which he is
President, has now thirty members. The outstation at Vaga, twelve
miles from the city, has still enjoyed the self-denying labors of Miss
Thiede, but at the end of the year the failure of her health made a
visit to her home in Germany expedient. Mr. Velte was in charge
of the church in Vaga, often preaching there and administering the
sacraments, but regretting to find cases of unworthy conduct, which
required the exercise of discipline.

regarded as showing progress and great promise, with the continued
blessing of God
Hoshyarpore.
The usual work of Mr. Chatteijee and his co-laborers, all of whom
are Christian Hindus, has been effectively continued. In the city,
preaching services in the streets and bazars daily and in the chapel
three times a week have been maintained. And in the District — 97
miles by 30 — with its 2,100 villages and its population of 500,000,
preachers and teachers were in each of its four administrative circles.
Respectful and friendly attention was given to the Gospel message in
most cases, excepting by members of the Arya Somaj, referred to on
a later page.
The church in Hoshyarpore received three adult members by bap-
tism. The members of this church are trained in the duty of self-sup-
port, according to their ability. The girls' orphan asylum, under
Mr. Chatterjee's charge, had fourteen inmates, and gave good
encouragement. The day-schools for girls — one for Mohamme-
dans and one for Hindus — reported 56 scholars. The orphanage
and boarding-school still occupied a rented building, delay having
occurred in securing a site for the Home ; but a very eligible
site has been obtained, architectural plans were ready, and the build-
ing will be completed at the earliest practicable date, to the great sat-
isfaction of the missionaries and of the ladies in this country, who pro-
vided the liberal gift of funds required for its erection. A reading-
room, a religious book depository, and a Bible-class, are all reported
as of good service, each in its sphere. Mr. Chatterjee has been called
on to give much time.to correspondence, to examination of books and
manuscripts for publication — most of them belonging to the Religious
Book Society, and to the supervision of its colporteurs ; and other en-
gagements were fulfilled. At this station for the year, its laborers and
their work and its prospects all encourage the hope of large success
in the near future.
The disposition of many of the Hindus toward the Christian religion
is well indicated by the Rev. K. C. Chatterjee in the Station Report
of Hoshyarpore as to the people of that city. " The attitude of the
city people toward our work may be generally described as friendly.
They have repeatedly heard the Gospel, and many of them have a very
fair apprehension of Christianity. They regard Christ as one of the
greatest religious teachers in the world, and some of them have adopted
His teaching for the ruling principle of their lives. The distinctive
doctrine of Christianity, ' Justification by Faith,' they do not accept.
What is wanting in the case of this people is a true conviction of sin,
a rousing of the conscience, and a feeling of their own helplessness.
Until this takes place, we shall in vain look forward for a general
awakening or movement to the sinner's Friend. This is the work of
God's Spirit, and He chooses His own time and place and manner of
working. We can neither force nor hasten it. We can work in obe-
dience to the Master's command, and daily wait and pray for the gift
of His Holy Spirit.

90 INDIA— JALANDHAR.
" The only section of the community that offers us active opposition
is the Aryi Somij. This is a conservative Theistic movement, started
by a Gujrdti Brahman, named Daya Nand Saraswati Swam^. He was
a strong opponent of idolatry, as well as of both Pantheism and Poly-
theism, and contended that the four Vedas alone were a true revela-
tion, and that the hymns to Agni, Indra, and Surya, mentioned in the
Vedas, were really hymns to one God, and that adoration, prayer, and
devotion were to be offered to one God only, abstracted from all idea
of shape, and without any second, as set forth in the Vedas. This
form of Monotheistic teaching, including, as it does, the doctrine of
Metempsychosis, is repudiated by the various Brahmo-Sanyasis, but is
popular among the half-educated men, who are dissatisfied with Hin-
duism and not prepared to accept Christianity. It has about forty
adherents in the city of Hoshyarpore, who seem to make it the princi-
pal part of their work to speak against Christianity. But as most of
what they say is based on entire falsehood, it exposes itself and falib
to the ground. We have not as yet found much inconvenience from
their opposition."
Jalandhar,
No report has been received of the work of the Rev. Golok Nath, of
this station. It is understood that his health is infirm. £arly in the
year Miss Pratt returned on a visit to this country. In December
Miss Given and Miss Downs, on their return, were transferred by the
mission to this station from Lodiana, and Miss Dunlap, for a year,
while learning the language. Dr. and Mrs. C. W. Forman, Jr., and
two licentiate native preachers were in active charge of the varied
work of this place.
A considerable part of this work was that of itinerant preaching in
the cold season. A large number of villages are within easy reach of
Jalandhar ; of these 107 were visited and some time spent at each.
Generally a friendly reception was given to the missionaries on their
visits.
Cases of special interest have occurred, but no baptism of converts
is reported. One would have been but for his early death. Seven
schools, mostly for girls, have been under Mrs. Forman's charge after
Miss Pratt's return, but the number of scholars is not reported, ex-
cept in a lately opened school in one of the villages, of 45 boys and
30 girls. The prevalence of cholera, which was severe, interfered with
the attendance of these schools.
During nine months of the year Dr. Forman kept the Dispensary .
open, and over 16,000 visits were received, upwards of 5,000 of which
were new cases. Rs. 250, or about $85, were received in fees — " ap-
plied to the medical work, the expense of which has been greater than
m any previous year." " Each day at the Dispensary is always be-
gun with reading and explaining a portion of Scripture to the
waiting patients, who listen attentively. Many are thus pointed to
the Great Physician."

INDIA — FEROZEPORE. 9I
Ferozepore*
The Rev. Francis J. Newton, M.D., for many years, and the Rev.
U. S. G. Jones for the last year, as a new missionary, have occupied
this station. Mr. Jones has made good progress in learning the lan-
guage, and can already engage in some parts of the work. Dr. New-
ton is expected soon to arrive in this country with his family, for urgent
reasons of health, and also for the education of their children. Before
leaving the station, a good report was made of its work and prospects.
From this report the following extracts are taken :
Preaching in the City has been carried on almost daily. A house is rented
in the principal chauk (crossing of two streets) of the city, in front of which
large audiences are addressed. Hymns are also sung with the accompaniment
of the baby organ. This is found to be a means of drawing together a great
many hearers, and of disarming any opposition that may casually appear. It
must be said, however, that there ib little inclination to oppose the preaching
of the Gospel on the part of the Ferozeporites and of those villagers from the
surrounding district, who are personally known to the members of the Chris-
tian community ; but, occasionally, a Maulvi from distant parts, appears upon
the scene. The typical disputatious Maulvi^ or Mulla^ is a well known char-
acter. He is seen, and heard too^in most of Indian bazars.
There are many in Ferozepore who do not hear any preaching. Those that
do are a mere handful. The masses care nothing about religion, one way or
the other, and are not to be stirred by a preacher of any school or sect or relig-
ion. How to reach them is the question. Conversation with individuals in
their hours of leisure from business, at their own houses or elsewhere, is a
means much resorted to, but even this reaches a very small number
Preaching in the Distfict is done only in the cold season. We go out in
twos or threes, and walk from village to village, putting up in dhamisalas.
That is a sort of village inn. It is the name given them in the villages, in this
district occupied chiefly by Sikhs. There are often three or four in a village,
and travellers and wayfarers, of all classes, provided they are Hindoos, are
allowed to occupy them. Muhammadans are rather objected to. The latter
have inns of their own called takyas^ which, however, are generally not nearly
so well kept, nor so clean. No objection is ever made to our Christian preach-
ers finding shelter in the dharnisalas^ and in our itinerant tours through the
district they are a great boon, for they afford us a most convenient resting
place in the very midst of the people. The dhamisala is the place of rendezvous^
and here, when the day is done, the men gather for an evening's gossip. That
is our opportunity. From seven or eight p.m., till midnight we may have a
throng of curious, if not eager, hearers.
By turns we address them, frequently engaging one or more of them in a
brisk discussion on some religious topic. In this the villagers take the keenest
interest, and will come night after night and sit for hours, not only to hear
what these *' setters-forth of strange gods " have to say, but to witness the dia-
lectic skill of the contestants. All preserve the utmost good humour and seem
to care little whether their own man or the stranger is the victor. This good
humour is immensely promoted by the singing of hymns with the *' baby organ **
accompaniment. This instrument, easily carried on the head of a coolie, has
become a most important factor in all our preaching, whether in the city or the
villages
The district we have to traverse is an immense one. There are hundreds of
villages that ought to be visited, and yet it is but a mere fraction of these we
arc able to reach. It has been our plan not to go into new regions each year,
but, as far as possible, to visit the same ones as frequently as possible. The
theory is to get as intimately acquainted with the people as possible, and to
make as many personal friends as practicable. To this end we get to know
many of them by name, going to see them and inquiring after their welfare
year after year, . • • •

92 INDIA— FEROZEPORE.
Medical work has for years been a prominent feature of the work in Feroze-
porc. The hospital has been largely patronized by the people of the city as
well as those of the district. Patients come in from distances of many miles.
A large number of operations have been performed during the yeari both major
and minor, and the total number of new names entered in the Hospital Register
is 5r433, while the number of visits has been io,ooa Many of Uiese, coming
from considerable distances, have a supply of medicine given them sufficient
to last for a week or ten days. Hence visits are not repeated as often as they
would otherwise be.
A Municipal Hospital flourishes in the town, not far from our own. It is
sometimes asked, wherein the necessity consists of having a second hospital
where one already exists.
With all due respect to the Surgeons in charge of Government institutions,
we hold that those institutions do not supply the want provided for by a Mis-
sion Hospital. The aim and object of the latter is different. It is distinctively
Christian, in its workings, and understood to be so, and recognized as such, by
the whole population. It forms an immense lever for the wielding of Christian
influence in the city. The work opens each day with the reading of the Gospel
and prayer, and all know that what is done is done in the name, and for the
sake of Christ. The very existence of such an institution has overcome many
a prejudice, and disarmed the opposition of many who once were hostile.
There is no mistaking the public sentiment. The people here are as capable
as any on earth of recognizing an act done with kindness ; and kindness of
treatment and gentleness of manner, count for very nearly as much with the
sick as the administration of a pill or a draught. This mode of treatment (not
the pill, but the kindness,) we have reason to fear is sadly deficient in some
quarters. Not that it is absent. The power of the rupee, even there, is well
known to conjure it to the surface
Ne7o Church. — During the year we have built a new Church. The congre-
gation is not a very large one. Including children, it does not exceed sixty-
five souls. So the building has been made^to seat not more than two hundred,
at a pinch. Yet we have sought to make fit as handsome for our money as
possible. The design was very kindly furnished by S. Athim, Esq., of Amrit-
sar, an engineer in employ of Government. The Church has a spire nearly
ninety feet in height, which is visible at a distance of some miles. The situa^
tion is an excellent one, being close to the main thoroughfare between the city
and cantonment, and not far from the chief gate.
Here it stands, guardian over the city, overlooking its walls and its tallest
houses and far away into the surrounding country, a prominent witness to the
presence of Christianity as a power that has come to stay.
The money for the building was raised entirely in this country, no part of
the funds being furnished by the Board in America. English friends have
contributed largely, while the members of the cong^regation, most of them not
wealthy, have given liberally of their means. Some of them, besides monthly
contributions, gave each a month's salary. To Rai Maya Das, elder in the
Church, is due more than to any other, the erection of the building. Not only
did he beg all the money that was begged, — and that was a large proportion of
the whole — but he contributed more largely than any one else. Our brethren
of the C. M. S. Mission came to our aid and helped us materially with their
contributions. The Chaplain of the station also sent a substantial offertory
from the English Church, ** an offering of sympathy," as he very kindly put
it, ** on the part of the European Christians here with their native brethren."
For all this help and the many kind expressions of sympathy, coming too, in
most instances from those of another communion, we here express our most
cordial thanks. Nothing can more surely break down the outward barriers
which divide us, nor promote more certainly the true interests of a spiritual
unity.
On Sunday, the 29th December, the new church was dedicated. It had just
been finished and the Lodiana Mission being at the time assembled at Feroze-
pore for its Annual Meeting, the occasion seemed an appropriate one. The
service took place at 11 a. m. when the building was crowded to its utmost

c&padty. Besides all the members of the Mission who were present, including
ladies, a number of Native Christians from Lahore, Jalandhar, Hoshyarpore
and Amritsar, and in addition to these, many of the non-Christian residents of
Ferozepore, attended the service. This was conducted by the Rev. P. C;
Uppal, pastor of the Church, and Rev. J. Newton, of Lahore, the oldest mem-
ber of the Mission, who preached the sermon. Addresses were made also by
Rai Maya Das and Rev. H. U. Weitbrecht of Batala, and Dr. H. Marty n
Clark of Amritsar, both of the C. M. S. Mission. These latter brethren had
come at our invitation and brought us the greetings of their Church and Mis-
sion, speaking words of cheer and sympathy.
All seems bright and hopeful for the future. We begin our new year aus-
piciously. Our work moves on, unfolding and enlarging, our workmen are
active, our circle of influence widens. With all this we have learned not to be
too sanguine of those results which Christian people at home so eagerly expect.
We have long since found out the strength of the enemy, and know too well
how securely he is ensconced behind his works to believe that a few years of
siege or assault can possibly effect his downfall. In the meantime it is no
small matter that we have secured the position we have done, and are slowly
and surely advancing. All will be triumph some day. It will not be in our
time. Some of us go, to be replaced by others. None of us are essential to
the success of the work.
The house at Muktsar, spoken of in last year's Report, is not yet finished.
It soon will be, and then we shall have another and still more advanced base
of operations.
Lodiana.
This senior station of the Board's work in India was subject to an
unusual number of changes in the staff of laborers during the last
year. These can be mostly learned from the list of stations and mis-
sionaries on page 82 above, as compared with the report of the year
before. At the end of the mission year, the Rev. E. P. Newton was
the only American laborer here, but he would be efficiently aided for
the ensuing year in the boys' boarding-school, with the approval of the
Board, by %he Rev. A. G. Norman, an English clergyman of the best
standing. For further information, the annual report of this station is
here reprinted :
The Christian Community consists of two hundred and sixty-nine members,
including the boys in the Boarding-School. The Sunday-School, which is
held in place of the ordinary morning service, is intended to comprise all
the members of the congregation, though there are some who, we regret to
say, habitually absent themselves from it, and others who are irregular in iheir
attendance. Mr. Dales resigned the pastorate of the Church in the early part
of the year, and Babu Dharm Das, a student in the graduating class in the
Theological Seminary at Saharanpur, was elected by the congregation in his
stead. At a meeting of Presbytery held at Lodiana in August, the call was
presented and accepted by him, and on the 4th of the same month he was or-
dained and installed Pastor of the Church, by a Committee appointed for the
purpose by the Presbytery. We are glad to be able to announce that the
Church undertakes the entire support of their Pastor. The contributions dur-
ing the past year have been, for the Pastor's salary, Rs. 347 ; for Evangelistic
work, Rs. 85 ; for the poor, Rs. 56 ; for Presbyteriai expenses, Rs. 32 ; and
for the general expenses of the Church, R$. 108. The total amount given is
Rs. 628, or about $210, of which about Rs. 400 may be credited to the native con-
gregation. The Wednesday evening service has been devoted to a study, in reg-
ular course, of the Epistles of Paul, except on the last Wednesday of each month,
when a paper is read, or an address delivered, on one of the great Mission fields
of the world, — the work in China, Japan, Siam, etc., being each presented in
turn. The women's Bible reading is held on Friday evenings. A Bible read-

jng and Prayer meeting is held on Saturday evenings by the Native Christians,
in their own houses, in turn ; and the Women's Home Missionary Society,
which was organized three years ago, continues to work for the evangelization
of the women of Lodiana. Since the beginning of the year, the monthly sub-
scriptions have been increased ; and sufficient is now given, with the help of
the ladies of the Mission, for the support of a Bible-woman. During the
year, six adults have been baptized, and the number of communicants is now
ninety-two. The two pupils of our school in Khanna, who were reported as
having been baptized last year, have left us, one having joined the Arya Samaj,
and the other relapsed into Sikhism.
Of all religious systems, it would be difficult to conceive of one that could
have less claim to the respect of serious-minded men than of the Ar3''a Samaj.
Its founder was a man named Daya Nand Saraswati, lately departed this life,
who claimed to be a Brahman, though of this doubts have been expressed, and
little is really known of his origin ; nothing in fact beyond what he himself has
revealed. His followers, who repudiate the name of Hindu, and call them-
selves Aryas, have established societies in various parts of the country, chiefly
in the Punjab and North-West Provinces. The word Samaj means Society or
a Chapter, and is applied both to the community as a whole and to the sepa-
rate local organizations. They accept the Vedas as the only Divine revela-
tion, which they say is eternal, and reject all the later Hindu Scriptures.
They proclaim the unity and personality of God, advocate the remarriage of
widows, and denounce, in violent language, infant marriages, caste, idolatry,
and the Brahmans. This sounds encouraging, and might lead one, unac-
quainted with the facts, to form a high opinion of their intelligence and pro-
gressiveness. But unhappily, their doctrines on these subjects are for the
most part held as a theory only. In actual life, they are as great sticklers for
their caste distinctions as any one. When their domestic tranquillity seems to
require it, they do not hesitate to conform to the idolatrous practices*of their
countrymen ; their little girls are married at a tender age, and when the child's
husband dies, she is condemned to perpetual widowhood, quite like the daugh-
ters of the Orthodox Hindus. Those who are best acquainted with this sect,
are agreed that little is to be hoped for from them, at least for some time to
come, in the direction of real social and moral progress.
Our day schools for boys contain 68 1 pupils, this being the average number
on the rolls throughout the year.
Owing to the absence of Mr. C. B. Newton in America, and the death of
Mr. Calderwood, which made it necessary for Mr. E. P. Newton to take the
management of the Press and the Nur-Afshan newspaper, there has been
little itinerating, beyond what the native brethren have been able to do. The
Press has been busy, especially in the lithographic department, the work done
being chiefly for the Pan jab Bible and Religious Book Societies. We have printed
during the year 9,623,295 pages. Of this total, dlbout 9,116,000 are religious
publications, and of these again, 7,091,500, Vernacular Scriptures. The Nur-
Afshan^ a secular and religious weekly paper in the Urdu language, has been
enlarged from eight to twelve pages. For the paper used in printing it we are
indebted to the London Tract Society, which has very kindly made us a free
grant of all that was required for the purpose.
The number of pupils in the Boys' Boarding School has averaged eighty
throughout the year, exclusive of twenty who attended as day scholars. Of
these iifty-nine are, in addition to their scholastic studies, employed in the In-
dustrial Department. Twelve are in the carpenter's shop ; sixteen in the shoe-
shop, fifteen are learning the art of tailoring, and sixteen that of weaving Per-
sian carpets. One pupil passed the middle school, four the upper, and four
the lower, primary examinations The health of the school has been good,
though we regret to have to report the death, from consumption, of one young
lad. Two of the elder pupils have been sent to study in the Theologicsd
School at Saharanpur. The work in zenanas and girls' schools has been car-
ried on as usual. Another school has been opened, and the opportunities for
doing good among the women have been greater than the present staff of
workers was able to take advantage of. We are surrounded by open doors,

INDIA— AMBALA. 95
and though some become alanned and close their houses to the Christian vis-
itor, there are always others where we can find a welcome. A nd thus the
truth is spreading among the women, but very slowly, and very little has been
done in the surrounding villages, fDr the old reason. May the time be not far
distant when we shall have ladies stationed out in the district, and regular
evangelistic work going on in hundreds of places where yet nothing has been
attempted.
In Jagraon, the Rev. Ahmad Shah has continued his work of preaching, and
administering medicines, on the native system, both in the city and in the vil-
lages. He writes encouragingly of the reception he meets everywhere. There
is no opposition worth speaking of. The people are his friends. The Aryas,
those most inveterate enemies of the Gospel, who for a time threatened to
give trouble, have disappeared from the scene, and, as he says, using an ori-
ental idiom, ** Neither their name nor their mark is left in the place." Many
confess the truth of the Gospel. O'hers have expressed a desire to receive
baptism, but no way has yet been found for them to surmount the difficulties
in which this step would involve them, and consequently they hesitate.
Since the baptism of two boys in Khanna last year, the work in that town
has been less encouraging. At first active hostility was aroused, resulting in
a large diminution in the number of our pupils. Latterly the school has in a
measure recovered, but the average number in attendance does not exceed
fifty, and it begins to be doubtful whether it is worth while to continue it.
The hostility of the people has subsided, and been replaced by an apathy and
indiflference to the Gospel, which is more difficult to meet. The Rev. Jaimal
Singh, often accompanied by Munshi Sangat Masih and others, has preached
in fifty villages situated around Khanna, many of them having been visited
frequently, and this work he has found more hopeful. There have been sev-
eral applicants for baptism, but all have been so circumstanced, that to profess
openly their faith in Christ would have entailed the severance of all their
worldly ties, and without the assurance of support, they have lacked courage
to come forward.
Ambala,
At this double station — the city and the cantonments —the usual
lines of work were conducted by Mr. WyckofF and native laborers.
Mr. Morrison's health was so feeble, and often he was so ill, that only
a part of the year could be spent at his station in the usual labors.
But while in the Hills for six months he .was enabled to supply a Un-
ion English church there in a measure and to its benefit. Miss Carle-
ton, M.D., was still at Ambala as a medical missionary, but no report
of her work has been received.
Preaching services in the city and district and at the cantonments ;
schools for boys and girls ; zenana work ; Leper Asylum of 30 in-
mates, of whom 25 are Christians — the Asylum being supported by
local gifts, but ministered to by the missionaries^ have all received
their attention. For statistics, see tables on page 84. Of the native
church in Ambala, the report says : " The services, though interesting
and instructive, as conducted by the Rev. H. Goloknath, have not
been well attended. There is a manifest indifference among many of
our church members." For mission work at this station, gifts from
local donors were received amounting to $132, of which $80 was for
the Leper Asylum.
Dr. C. B. Newton, on his return to India in December, was ap-
pointed to Ambala by the mission. He expected to be occupied in
itinerant work, especially among the numerous villages.

The work of the Rev. M. M. Carleton and his wife, and of his son,
M. B. Carleton, M.D., was conducted last year, as before, ^t the
two stations referred to above. No report has been received from
Mr. Carleton, except as written by his wife. Mrs. Carleton gives a
good account of her husband* s work, and says that his '* way of mis-
sionating is by social conversation rather than by formal preaching
services"; and she refers to the selling of quinine to fever patients as
a considerable part of his occupation. It is sold nearly at cost, and
from such sales last year $360, as compared with $668 in the preced-
ing year, were received, the last year having been more healthy than
the previous one. Mrs. Carleton says : *' The rite of baptism was
during the season administered to two adults and two infants ; and at
the fall communion fourteen native Christians partook of the Lord's
Supper." She describes : *' The usual routine of work, viz., Sabbath
service, daily noonday service, Sabbath-school, women's prayer-meet-
ing, and day-school, was carried on in Ani during our stay there." In
some or most of these meetings her own devotedness was no doubt
well represented.
Dr. M. B. Carleton' s report of his medical missionary work is valu-
able and interesting. His faithful labors as a physician were tributary
to his main object, that of trying to lead the poor people to Christ as
their Saviour.
Sabathu,
The Rev. T. W. J. Wylie, the native evangelist, is still at this sta-
tion, which is connected with Ambala for supervision. His work is
largely among the lepers, of whom 16 are members of the church, in the
asylum. One of these pitiable inmates was lately baptized. The
religious services seem to be regarded by them with interest, especially
in the singing of hymns of praise to Christ.
Dehra.
The reported work at this fine station is one of encouragement.
Both the £nglish church, under Mr. Thack well's charge, and the native
church, of which Mr. Prabhu Das was pastor, received new communi-
cants— six by the former and seven by the latter — of whom five were
by examination. The total number of communicants in the church of
natives is 70, of whom but 42 were resident ; 2 had died ; i was under
church censure ; i had apostatized ; 23 were absent without taking
their letters. Few of them are employed by the mission ; the greater
number are in Government offices and domestic service, and liable to
frequent transfers and changes.
Of the schools and the zenana work, an encouraging report is
given. The pupils in the Christian girls' boarding-school, supported
in part by their parents, numbered 95 on the roll during the year, and
85 at its close. Miss Wherry, the superintendent, aided by Miss
Savage, speaks favorably of the deportment and progress of the
scholars. " Six left the school before the end of the year, of whom i
has become a zenana worker ; 3 have been married, two of them to
Uiculogical students; and the third, we think, is well married, and is

seeking to do good in her home by teaching some who are willing to
learn. The long-cherished plan of having a Training-class for Chris-
tian workers established in this school has at length been realized.
Four young ladies, born in the country, and conseqiiently accustomed
to the climate and the habits of the people, have been secured."
Of work in zenanas Miss Geisinger writes : "The record of our
work from year to year varies little. Earnest, faithful work has been
quietly done by the assistants, and there has been a spirit of industry
and inquiry on the part of some of our pupils. We close the year
with 64 houses and 79 pupils. During the year we have taught in 73
houses, with 97 pupils. A number of these pupils removed from the
station, and the instruction of some others we were obliged to discon-
tinue. I have corresponded with some of those who went away, and
they assure me that they continue their reading, and pray every day in
the name of Jesus. Other pupils have borne very clear testimony to
their faith in Christ ; and when they went to their homes in villages,
they took the Gospel message with them, and brought back a request
for books and teachers. Thus they testified by works, if not by bap-
tism."
Woodstock: Landour.
This excellent seminary for girls can report another year of success,
both in its training and in its religious influence. The number
of scholars continues to be as large as the building can receive.
Among them are the daughters of missionaries, but the much larger
number are from English-speaking families, mostly such as find homes
for themselves and their children in India. There the Christian edu-
cation received in this seminary may widely extend a missionary in-
fluence by precept and example, leading many of the Hindus to the
knowledge of Christ as their Saviour.
The school is supported largely by tuition fees, and it would have been
self-supporting before this but for defraying the expense of enlarging
and improving the school building and its premises. These are now
convenient and attractive. The Government still makes a moderate
grant in aid from its educational funds, and its Inspector's approval,
after examination, is quite satisfactory. Its general regulations, how-
ever, are necessarily somewhat inconvenient. After referring to the
good work done in the school, and the good health of the girls, Mrs.
Scott could say further, at the end of the year : " In the spiritual state
of the school we had much to cheer, as well as much to cause sorrow
and anxiety. Seven of our girls came with us to the Lord's table for
the first time ; and others, who were not ready to do this, gave us good
reason to hope that they would before long seek this privilege too."
Saharanpore,
•Preaching services in Hindustani have been conducted by the mis-
sionaries and teachers in the Theological Seminary, and in English for
Europeans. The latter service is partly for families connected with
the railway, and their children ; this little congregation contributed
$150 for this object. Evangelistic meetings have been kept up regu-

larly in the city. The church increased from 57 communicants to 66^
after the removal of 9 — 3 by death, 3 to join other churches, and as
many absent without taking letters of dismission. In the chief school
of 200 boys, the orphanage of 39 boys as boarders, of whom 5 united
with the church during the year; girls' schools and zenanas, under the
charge of Mrs. Kelso, with 150 scholars in the former and 115 women
in the latter ; and the women's normal school, for the wives and chil-
dren of the theological seminary students, under Mrs. Kelso's care
also, aided by Mrs. Henry Forman ; in all these good work has been
done. Good seed sown will bear good fruit. The Theological Semi-
nary has been well sustained, with the attendance of 28 students.
Some of its graduates are now ordained as pastors of churches, and
others have been licensed as preachers, who give promise of useful
labors.
The station at Mazaffarnagur is suspended for the present.
Futtehgurh — Furrukhahad.
These stations are virtually one, being about three miles apart
Much of the work for the latter is connected with the former, as the
place of residence of most of the foreign laborers. Their duties are
fulfilled in the usual lines ; but Mr. J. N. Forman spent much of his
time in itinerating work. The preaching services, orphanage, and
evangelistic schools and visits to zenanas, with the supervision and
encouragement of native laborers, call for earnest labor. One of the
prominent native ministers had to be suspended by the Presbytery,
and his name is omitted from the list given above. The usual station
and personal reports from this double station, and also from Mynpurie,
Etawah (excepting that of Miss Belz), Morar, and Jhansi, have not
been received as this report goes to the printer. Perhaps they may
arrive before it goes to press, and their statistics may be inserted;
otherwise, those of last year may be reprinted.
Mynpurie^
and the outstation at Etah, as just stated, cannot be fully reported.
The same kinds of work — preaching, teaching, itinerating — are under-
stood to have been conducted as heretofore, and with no less encour-
agement.
Etawah,
The usual reports from this station for the last year have not been
received, excepting that of Miss Belz. From letters it is learned that
the Rev. Thomas Tracy, after continuing in his usual work during
nearly all the year, would leave India on a visit to his family in this
country, with the consent of the Board. His arrival may be expected
at an early day — perhaps before this Report is published. The Rev.
John S. Woodside spent part of the year at this station and a part of
it at Landour with a married daughter's family, but he was still
occupied with work for the Saviour. After his return to Etawah, he
was married to Mrs. Edward Leavitt, a missionary of the Board in

1856-57. In the absence of reports of the work at Etawah, reference
must be made to the last Annual Report of the Board.
The interesting work of Miss Belz can be best described by quoting
her own report. It will be read with interest, as showing what a Chris-
tian woman, who is well acquainted with the language and ways of the
people, can do in making the Gospel known to them :
With gratitude to the Lord, I can state that my visits in towns and villages
are always very welcome to the people. In nearly every place to which I go
I am received as a friend, and I see clearly that everywhere among the
women the desire to listen to the Gospel message and to hear more about the
Saviour Jesus Christ is increasing with every year. There are a number of
women who, from having heard the truth so often brought before them, have
become convinced that there is no salvation in their Hindu religion, and that
in fact their religion is altogether false. They will listen to me for hours and
put many important questions to me about the way of salvation, which shows
me the state of their hearts. At many places, when speaking to them, they
say to each other before me: ''All that this lady tells us is perfectly true,
and it is clear from what she states that the Christian religion is the
true religion of God." Many a time the great attention of my audience
appeared to me as if I had a Christian congregation before me, so earnestly did
they hear, and the questions which they put about their souls' salvation showed
that they felt the power of the truth. Some of them would say to me, *' Do let
me go with you," meaning that she wanted to become a Christian. But then
by doing so that woman would lose her caste, and could not remain with her
own relatives. Her husband and her children would turn her out of her own
home. In such a case I told the woman to remain in her own house and to
take care of her household as before, but to give her heart to Jesus, and to put
her hope of salvation in him and in him alone.
People will very often tell me also of their bodily sickness, and ask me
whether I did not know of some remedy to help them. As far as I am able, I
give them my advice what to do, but most of all I try to make them know that
sickness and every kind of pain and death had come into this world through
sin, and that they therefore and every one should repent of their sins and turn
10 the right Physician, the Lord Jesus Christ, for help. When in the village
Pupar§ I was addressing a number of Brahmini women, a very sickly-looking
Brahmin who was lying there on a charpoy listened also to me. When I was
about to go away this man complained, telling me that for the last three
months he had been confined to his bed, and that he was racked with pain in
all his bones. The man seemed to sufifer of paralysis, and was much depressed
in his mind about his illness. He inquired whether I did not know of any
medicine which could cure him. I replied : " Medicine to cure you I do not
know, but the Lord Jesus can make you well." I then related to him some of
the miracles performed by our Lord on sick people, and advised him to repent
of his sins and to pray to the Lord Jesus for help. He cheerfully said that he
would try. The next time when I came again to this place many Brahmins
were present, who received me very kindly and gave me a charpoy to sit on.
An aged woman came out of a house to be with me, and a strong, hale-looking
man who was cutting straw, left his work and came also, and put some ques-
tions to me, as if he would find out whether I remembered something about
him. When he saw that he appeared quite a stranger to me, he said : " The
man who was lying here on a cot, sick and miserable when you were here the
last time, that man am I. I have prayed twice every day to the Lord Jesus
Christ, and he has made me well."
I have been in a number of zenanas of high caste Hindus where the inmates
listened well to the Gospel message, and mostly everywhere in these houses,
when I was about to go away, some women would beg of me to come again to
them. The other day, in the village Manikpore, where many high caste people
are living a Brahmini woman, in whose house I was, said to me : ** 1 have
seen you at the Mela at Sonai, and other women here have told me about you,
Digitized by VjOOQIC
lOO INDIA— ETAWAH.
but I said to them that lady does not come to our house." This woman begged
me in a most touching way to come again, and said : "All that you tell us is
so very true and important, but we being parda-women [parda^ a screen, to
keep them from being seen] are not allowed to go out and hear you at places
where you speak to women, who gather about you in the street." In a
Brahmini-zenana, in the village Bataura, I found a girl of about eighteen years
suffering of consumption. Her mother told me that this, her daughter, had,
when very young, become a widow, and was much afraid to die. I of course
spoke to them about Jesus as the Saviour of sinners, and exhorted the girl to
believe and to trust m him. and if ever fear would come to pray to him for
help. The girl seemed to feel comforted. Both mother and daughter wept,
and it seemed as if every word which I told them went to their hearts. When
about to leave them some other women and the girl's mother followed me to
the door of the house, and with tears the mother begged me to come soon
again, so that her poor, dying daughter might hear more of the "good word."
In several other Brahmini>zenanas the women would make me promise them
that I would come again.
I have also been called into several Mohammedan-zenanas, where generally
a great number of women gathered about me. They would listen quietly to all
I told them till I came to the point that there was no other way to paradise but
by Jesus Christ, then they would generally show that they did not agree with
what I was saying. At one place, where from several houses about twenty-
five Mohammedan women had gathered about me, all listened with attention
till I came to speak about the Lord Jesus as the only Saviour of sinners.
Upon this one or two men who seemed to have heard what I had said from a
hidden place in the house, came forward to oppose me, when most of the
women left me and ran into the adjoining houses. After I had said a few
words to my opponents, and had put a few questions about religion to them,
they dropped the matter and left me also. But now a strong-minded woman
came forward and said to me : " Go away from here ; we do not like to hear
you speak of Jesus Christ. We believe in our own prophet, Mahomet." I
did not feel like going away, but after having told them first a few words more
about the Saviour, remaining sitting on the charpoy, I said to them : "You
have called me here to preach to you. I shall therefore go after I have done
so." And having done so. I left them.
My zenana schools number at present 144 pupils, who are of high caste and
taught by four female teachers. The books read in these schools are the First
Hindi Book, the Catechism, Guru Gian, and Prashan Utter ; the tract Dharm-
tula ; Barth's Bible History, or instead of it some portions of the Old Testa-
ment—Genesis and Exodus, the Psalms, and the Proverbs — and after that the
New Testament. In this year again a number of girls left school after they
had learned to read well. Others again who had not yet finished their study
had to leave, because we were going away from Etawah. One woman who
had only read the Catechism and the tract Dharmtula told me when I exam-
ined her the last time that she was going away from Etawah. She seemed on
this occasion to be very thoughtful about the Christian religion. In the pres-
ence of several of her friends she asked me to tell her the difference between
their god R&m and the Lord Jesus Christ. She put also many other important
questions about Jesus Christ as the Saviour, which I answered, and then
bought a book containing Christian bhajans or hymns from me, and at her
advice her sister bought the tract Dharmtula. This tract is generally read by
my pupils with attention and interest. However, one Brahmini woman made
an exception. She declared to the teacher that if I would give her a book
again which was so opposed to her Hindu religion as Dharmtula she would
give up reading altogether, and in the same way she and her mother spoke to
me when I came to examine her. The teacher had told them already that
according to the rules in my schools no other books than those mentioned
above are used, and that whoever would not read them could not be taught at
all by my teachers. This woman is now reading in the Old Testament, and
seems to be reconciled again and willing to continue her reading.
In conclusion, I wish to state that during the last year I have paid 342 visits

to villages, have been in 145 zenanas in towns and villages, have attended
10 melas, and on 119 days I have worked in the city of Etawah.
May the Lord bless his own Word to the salvation of many souls !
Morar.
At this station Mrs. Warren continues in the charge of its work.
She is aided by a native minister, and cherishes the hope that their
labors are not in vain in the Lord. The report of the station not
yet received.
Jhansi,
The missionary outlook at this station is still of marked interest and
encouragement. As a military and railway post, surrounded by a large
population, it is considered a good place for missionary work. A
chapel and reading-room is about completed, and in a few months it is
hoped that a church, in a different part of the city, will be ready for ser-
vices. Mr. and Mrs. Holcomb have their hearts and hands full of
gooii work, and they should have the assistance of another missionary
family at the earliest practicable time. They have now the aid of a
lady from Australia, formerly of India, whose salary is defrayed by
Australian friends, and who is useful in the school and in visits to
native women and children. A native minister is also stationed at
Jhansi.
Futtehpore.
This city is still but an outstation of Allahabad. It is under the
special supervision of the Rev. J. M. Alexander, and is occupied by
native helpers. Reference is made to it in Mr. Alexander's report
below. As a central post in a district of nearly 700,000 people, it
needs the regular services of an able and earnest minister and his
wife.
Allahabad.
At this influential city the work of the missionaries is in good con-
dition. Mr. Alexander devotes his time largely to evangelistic and
educational labors, and he rightly understands the former as including
the latter. His report speaks of interesting missionary tours, accom-
panied by Mrs. Alexander and three of the native Christian assistants,
especially in the district of Futtehpore. In this district of 680,000
people only visits by the brethren seem as yet to be practicable ; but
a small church has been formed at the chief town, and native helpers
are connected with it, who are visited and aided from Allahabad. Mr.
Alexander is led to fear that a disproportionate attention is given by
missionaries to the large cities, while the almost innumerable villages
are too much neglected. In Allahabad his labors are largely in the
part of the city called the Kutra, where he preaches in the bazars and
the streets, besides visiting almost daily in the forenoons certain suburban
towns for the same purpose. He aids the native pastor, Mr. Calebs
exercises supervision over schools, having over 200 scholars, gives
attention to keeping the accounts of the treasury for the stations of
the mission, and so devotes himself to abundant labors in the cause

of Christ It IS noteworthy that during one of the missionary tours
T40 separate villages were visited and preached in, and many interest-
ing conversations were held with individuals. Mrs. Alexander also
finds invaluable opportunities of doing good, both on the missionary
journeys, and fh visits among native women and children ; 86 zenana
pupils are reported in connection with the Kutra station. To the
church there 8 communicants were added, making in all 81. The
Futtehpore church, under Mr. Alexander's charge, reports 13 com-
municants. The schools at Kutra include 190 boys and 14 girls.
The various labors of Dr. Lucas have been steadily and efficiently
continued during the last year in abundant preaching services ; the
superintendence of the High School for boys, of 254 pupils; the editing
of the monthly magazine, the MakUzan-i-Masihe ; visits to the Blind
Asylum of 69 inmates, and the I-feper Asylum of 35 inmates. The
services in the new church on the Sabbath and several times during
the week attested the great advantage of its site, its size, and its well-
known purpose as a temple for the worship of the true God. Some
attempts were made to disturb the meetings held in it ; stones were
thrown into it in times of worship, windows were broken ; but these
annoyances have mostly ceased — partly no doubt under the protec-
tion of the police, and the audiences are now usually undisturbed and
attentive. At the Jumna church %2^ communicants are reported. Five
were added to the church, two Hindus, one Mohammedan, and two
by letters from other churches. Another Hindu was baptized, but
was intensely persecuted by his friends, and at length yielded to their
influence, and is not a communicant. Several inquirers are referred
to, some of whom have disappointed hopes indulged, and others who
may yet confess Christ as their Saviour. The members of the church
have begun to collect funds among themselves to support a pastor,
showing liberality in their limited means. An effort is contemplated
to form a new church, under another pastor.
In January and February the usual evangelizing efforts at the annual
mela were made, but unusual opposition was met with. This led the
brethren to modify their plans, and concentrate their labors at certain
places among the vast crowds, thus securing better attention. An
outstation was occupied at Kurma across the Sutlej, twelve miles
from Allahabad. One of the native brethren and his wife were placed
in charge, and the first three months gave encouragement. A number
of inquirers were known. Dr. Lucas also refers to the blind inmates
of the Asylum, sixteen of whom are able to read, and a strong desire
was expressed by them to have the whole Bible printed in their letters.
It is difficult to give a full account of the work in progress at this
station, as it is also at other stations ; but it is evident that God is
blessing the labors of His servants here, as elsewhere in India. The
boarding-school for native Christian giris at Allahabad is under the
efficient charge of Mrs. John Newton, Jr. It is doing a good work
for an interesting company of young people, 58 in number. Their
parents are expected to pay for the expense of their schooling, accord-
ing to their ability, which in most cases is very small. Mrs. Newton
has been aided in her labors provisionally by Miss Hutchison and
Digitized by VjOOQIC
INDIA — ALLAHABAD. I03
Miss Babbitt, but these young ladies expect to be occupied chiefly
in other lines of duty — visits among native women in zenanas and in
villages, and as opportunities offer. An efficient teacher of some ex-
perience in teaching is much needed in aid of Mrs. Newton. Her
work as superintendent has been altogether excessive, and must be
lessened.
The medical missionary work at this city is still in the charge of
Miss Seward, M.D., and is marked by its efficiency and success. Her
impaired health required a visit to this country for a few months, but
she was glad to return to her work with renewed strength, arriving at
Allahabad in Deceniber. In her absence the work was in the care of
Miss Symes, of special medical training, aided by the faithful Bible-
reader who has been with Miss Seward for some years, and the work
was well conducted. Miss Symes reported the attendance of patients,
from April to November inclusive, as 6,785, of whom 2,301 were new
patients. Most of the patients are very poor, but Rs. 327 — over
$ioo^were received from fees. The reading of the Scriptures or
religious books was kept up daily, preceding the medical work ; and
visits were made to some of the women at their homes, besides
keeping up a Sabbath-school class of from 30 to 40 boys and girls at
the dispensary. In these duties the faithful Bible-reader continued to
assist Miss Symes, and both were happy in their good labors. Visits
were paid by the Bible-reader to 32 zenanas, in which 49 pupils were
taught.
Miss Seward, while at home, renewed the request for a new dispensary
or hospital. This application was sanctioned by the mission. The
building heretofore rented was never suitable, and it had become almost
uninhabitable, besides being refused for rent longer. The new building
had received the approval of the Board in the preceding year ; but to
obtain a good site was very difficult, and the funds available only
secured the ground, and so the case rested, after a very eligible site
had been obtained, near the new church building, in the best part of
the city. With the aid of liberal gilts from friends here, the Board
was encouraged to complete the funds required for the new building.
The outlay for the land and the dibpensary will be about $4,000. The
architect's plans were generously without charge, and the new build-
ing by its attractive but modest style, its well-appointed interior
arrangements and its admirable site, with its efficient administration,
will greatly increase the influence for good of this dispensary. It will
still have the faithful Christian services of the Bible-woman long con-
nected with it, as well as those of Miss Symes, while Miss Seward will
be more than ever thankful for the blessing of God upon her work.
One of the signs of progress in India was the decision of the
Supreme Court at Allahabad, the highest in the northwestern prov-
inces, that a convert of minor age may be baptized as a Christian if
his act is intelligent and free. At the discretion of the court he may
be released from the control of his relatives who would compel him
to remain a heathen, and be subject to cruel and degrading treatment,
extending as in some cases that have occurred to the destruction of
reason and of life itself, to prevent his becoming a Christian. The

case adjudicated was that of a young man at Allahabad, a member of
one of our schools, whose relatives prosecuted our missionaries, Dr.
Lucas and Mr. H. Forman, before the court for baptizing him. The
case attracted wide attention, and the decision was a great departure
from the ruling of the high courts heretofore. Its immediate effect
relates to the people in the northwest provinces, but it already estab-
lishes the right law for a hundred millions of the Hindus, and it will
probably be a decision, owing to the principles and the circumstances
involved, to be followed in all parts of the country. The judgment of
the Court was long deferred for mature consideration. The mission-
aries regard it as reached in answer to prayer, and are very grateful to
God for it.
It is needful to remember that the staff of ministers from this
country in these missions in Upper India is becoming seriously weaker.
Some have returned, hoping to go back, but not for some time, most
of them meanwhile not drawing their support from the Board. One
has died ; several are becoming aged and infirm. Only one new
minister was sent out last year ; another was to have gone, but serious
illness prevented. Two new ministers are now under appointment.
But more are needed if the work is kept in requisite force. There is
urgent need of prayer for more laborers in so great a field.
There is still more need of prayer for the power of the Holy Spirit
to give life to the multitudes who are " dead in trespasses and in sins."
In the older missions, prayer is needed for special grace to bring
into life seed widely sown, and make it spring up and bear fruit many
fold. With the blessing of God the friends of missions in our part of
India may soon see thousands and tens of thousands of the Hindus
turning unto the Lord, as in South India in recent years. The Lord
hasten the day !
Kolhapur Mission.
The field occupied by this mission comprises the CoUectorates of
Ralnagiri, parts of the CoUectorates of Satara and Belgaum, the States
of Kolhapur, Sangli, Miraj and Kurundwar, and other of the Southern
Marathi States. It contains 4,000 villages, besides the densely popu-
lated cities and towns, making the total number of souls within the
territory of our mission about 4,000,000. The inhabitants are mostly
Hindus, although there are a goodly number of Mohammedans, Jains,
and others. The missionary force has been temporarily depleted by
the return of Mr. and Mrs. Ferris and Miss Patton to the United
States on furlough, while it has been substantially increased by the ar-
rival of Dr. and Mrs. Wan less, Miss Margaret L. Ewalt, and Miss Jen-
nie Sherman, who joined the mission during the year, the two former
being assigned to Sangli, and the latter two to Kolhapur. An earnest
appeal has been forwarded by the mission for sixteen new missionaries
to strengthen the posts already established, reoccupy Ratnagiri and
extend the work to other strategic centres.
Kolhapur Station,
Preaching has been conducted at this station by Mr. Goheen and
Mr. Seiler and three native laborers in church and chapel, and on the
Digitized by VjOOQIC
INDIA — KOLHAPUR. 105
public highway. Six persons were received into the church on con-
fession of faith, and four by letter, making the total enrollment sixty,
while still others are inquiring. A day of fasting and prayer was
observed by the church in June to the refreshment and edification
both of the missionaries and the native Christians. The report men-
tions with gratitude the manifest growth of brotherly love and earnest
prayer among believers.
Four Sunday-schools have been in operation in the city, that held in
the city chapel having sixteen classes, with an average of twenty
pupils each. It is especially to be noted that about one hundred of
those who attend this school are not connected with any of the mission
day-schools, showing that attention is being challenged outside the
usual circle of direct mission influence.
The evangelistic work in the outlying districts has been prosecuted
to some extent by Mr. Goheen, with thft help of native preachers,
twenty-five towns and villages having been visited. In addition to
preaching in the city, Mr. Seiler spoke to groups in some thirty differ-
ent places in Kolhapur and in twenty villages, paying special atten-
tion to private conversation. In connection with these evangelistic
efforts Mr. Goheen writes : " I feel more and more convinced that if
the mission is to reach the multitudes of India, missionaries must go
into the highways and hedges with the Gospel."
Work among the women has been prosecuted with diligence by Mrs.
and Miss Wilder, and also by Mrs. Hull. In addition to house-to-
house visitation, in which 140 homes were visited, Mrs. Wilder and
daughter opened a school in the village of Bowada, conducted as a
Sunday-school, although held on Thursdays. The ladies encountered
some opposition during the year, but on the whole have found the
homes of the people open and ready access to the women and chil-
dren. In addition to the work in and around Kolhapur, Mrs. and
Miss Wilder made an itinerary tour to Sangli, visiting villages on the
way. Mrs. Hull, in connection with her school work, has had six
zenana pupils during the year in four different homes. Part of this
work consists in imparting religious instruction. She notes with
gratitude that her most advanced pupil, a young Mohammedan woman,
finished committing " The Summary of Scripture Doctrine " during the
year. This achievement is all the greater because it was done after
the family had retired, that she might not be charged with neglecting
her ordinary duties in order to study Christian truth.
Educational, — The English High-School, under the care of Mr.
Seiler, reports a prosperous year, with 120 pupils enrolled. The relig-
ious instruction of the school is thus referred to : " Fifteen minutes are
devoted to daily prayers, which 1 conduct in Marathi for the benefit of
those studying the lower standards. Two classes have each two
hours in * Pilgrim's Progress' every week ; the sixth and seventh classes
have gone through the Gospel of Mark twice." In addition to this Mr.
Seiler reaches the boys in Sunday-school and by private conversation.
Miss Sherman, who has been assisting in the school, speaks enthusias-
tically of it as a means of reaching the youth with the Gospel, being in
this respect in sharp contrast to (rovernment schools, where religious

instruction is forbidden. She mentions the case of an advanced
student in one of these schools who told her that he knew nothing of
Christ, save that he had heard his name mentioned, and on her talking
with him of Peter's walking on the water, he wished to know whether
it was " Peter the Hermit," or " Peter the Great"
The Chrisiian GirU School established a year ago has quite met the
expectation of the mission. Being exclusively for the girls of Christian
parents, its growth can only be in proportion to that of the churches
within the mission. There was an average attendance for the year of
about 25, 1 1 of them being in the boarding department and the others
living on the mission compound or in the city. Six of them are
orphans. The health of the pupils has been excellent, something
which Mrs. Goheen ascribes to the comfortable home now provided
for them, furnished, however, in native style. Concerning the com-
forts of this home, Miss Ewalt writes: **It probably would not seem
very comfortable to us ; sitting on the floor at meal-time and all other
times, eating rice and curry without knife, fork, or spoon, and at night
spreading our beds, consisting of a few quilts, on the floor."
Three day-schools for boys, with an average attendance of 1 1 2, have
been conducted by native teachers under the direction of Mr. Seiler.
The attendance at the school for Hindu and Mohammedan girls in the
Bazaar, under the care of Mrs. Hull, has fallen off. Six of the girls
withdrew to attend a Hindu school for girls which the Government
had opened during the year, and where instruction is given in the
Arabic tongue. Mrs. Hull adds : "Marriages, feast days, and indiffer-
ence of parents have all contributed to make the attendance irregular.
On the other hand, the scholarship and general status of the school
has, I think, advanced. Two girls passed the examination for the
sixth class and one for the seventh, being, I believe, the first Hindu
girl in any school of our mission who has been allowed to remain in
school long enough to pass so far. The children's hearts are easily
touched, and they are influenced by the truth which they are taught
One refuses to worship idols or wear the caste mark ; some two or
three meet together to sing the hymns they have learned ; one reads
the New Testament to a neighbor, another tells her father the good
news learned at school, that they both have a Father in heaven, while
girls who have attended the school will visit it again, or speak with
pride of their former connection with it."
Panhala Station,
In the absence of Mr. Ferris, the oversight of this station has been
in the hands of Mr. Seiler, wiiile the outstations connected with it have
been under the charge of Mr. Goheen. Preaching has been maintained
in the town chapel by Bhiwaji, a native preacher, on Sabbath after-
noons, and the Sabbath-school in the compound, though greatly re-
duced in numbers, was maintained. The absence of Miss Patton, and
the inability of the mission to put any one in her place, rendered it
necessary to close the day-school which had been an important feeder
to the Sabbath-school. None were received into the church on con-

fession of faith, while one was suspended for unchristian conduct.
Since the close of the year, however, a man and his wife have been
baptized and enrolled as members of the church.
The dispensary work has been carried on by Somaji, a native
Christian, who has been trained to this work. He prescribed for
7,620 patients during the year, and made good use of opportunities for
preaching the Gospel to those who came to the dispensary.
Mr. Goheen reports that he spent two days at Nerlehy an outstation
some thirty miles from Kolhapur. where hundreds came to hear the
Gospel, .^t Kerduli^ where the missionary spent four days and held
communion, a large number of Hindus were present. Several persons
were found who seemed to be almost persuaded to take their stand
for Christ. One of the Christians there had been sorely tried by his
Hindu neighbors, they having threatened to starve him out if he re-
fused to work on the Lord's day. By his consistent walk and God's
providential care, however, he gained the victory and has now no diffi-
culty in finding employment.
The church at Itiwadi, some three miles from Kerduli, has been in
charge of Surtoba, a native preacher. The communicants number
but 13, and no additions are reported for the year. The preacher in
charge, besides conducting services there, preached in thirty different
towns and villages.
Sangli Station,
The church building in the city, which was reported well advanced
last year, is still unfinished, owing to vexatious delays, and yet Mr.
Graham, who has charge of the work, has been congratulated by native
gentlemen on the rapidity with which the edifice has been erected,
building in India being proverbially slow. The church occupies one
of the most conspicuous sites in Sangli, and for this reason has stirred
up the priestly and other high castes. The opposition, however, has
not led to any serious interference with the progress of the work.
Public worship has been conducted as formerly in the central room
of the boarding-school. This room, which accommodates about
125 persons, has been well filled, and frequently closely packed,
mostly, however, with the native Christians and children, together
with the workmen employed on the mission buildings. The Sunday-
school has been well attended, the room being filled to its utmost
capacity. The international Sunday-school lessons have been the
subject of study in the school, as well as the theme for the Thursday
afternoon church meetings. Deep regret is expressed at the fall of a
young man who had given promise of great usefulness, and was in
course of preparation for the ministry. But one addition was made to
the church on confession of faith during the year.
The Boy^ Boarding-school^ under the care of Mr. Graham, had an
attendance of 26 during the year, 16 of the number being boarders.
One of the day scholars died of hydrophobia in circumstances which
made a deep impression upon all. Although he had never made a
public confession of his faith, he had been taught the way of salvation
through Christ, and in his delirium before his death he called on Christ

to save him, and in such a way as to bring tears to the eyes of all who
heard him. A pri/e of a Bible dictionary in the Marathi was offered
to the boy in the three highest classes who passed the best examina-
tion in the books of the Bible which are studied in the school. Mr.
Graham reports that during a six hours' examination four boys did not
miss a question, and it became necessary to give them all prizes.
Since our occupation of Sangli a number of the better class of the
people have expressed a desire that the mission should open a high-
school for their benefit, and although the way does not seem clear for
this step at present, it indicates confidence on the part of the people
in our missionaries and their methods of instruction.
The itinerating work of this station has been in the hands of Mr.
Tedford, who, with a native preacher, made two journeys through the
villages and towns in the Sangli region, also visiting Chinchli, where
the great annual exhibition of domestic animals is held, and where
frequently 100,000 people gather in the month of February, multitudes
of whom bathe in the sacred Krishna, and then prostrate themselves
at the shrine of the idol god. During a visit to Tasgaum, a large
place, containing one of the most magnificent temples in Western In-
dia, striking testimony was borne to the value of the Bible by an edu-
cated Brahmin. He said : " I have read most of the Bible, and also
studied it carefully, and I can truly say that the ancient history, cere-
monies, and morals of the Old Testament are most interesting, and the
teachings of Jesus Christ most excellent. If men would act according
to them, this world would become a heaven." A good deal of opposi-
tion was encountered here and there during the itinerary tours, and
yet on the whole respectful attention was given to the proclamation of
the truth. Mr. Tedford also during part of the year held regular ser-
vices in the railroad station at Miraj, a city of 25,000 inhabitants,
some twelve miles from Sangli on the railroad. It is one of the points
which the mission is exceedingly anxious to occupy, not only because
of its large population, untouched by the Gospel, but because of its
strategic importance.

Tlie Dalcotas.
From the report of Rev. John P. Williamson, we glean the follow-
ing points of interest : The Yankton Agency church observed the
Week of Prayer with good results, the meetings being fully attended ;
nearly all the men in the church, of whom there are sixty, took part
in some of the services. The Sabbath-school is full, and the Wom-
an's Society and the Young Men's Christian Association are active.
Mr. Williamson gives what attention he can, with his other work, to
the Government boarding-school, in which he seems to be welcomed.
The Yankton Agency day-school has been under the care of Miss
Miller since the ist of January, Miss Hunter having resigned the work
in which she had made a faithful record. Good accounts of Miss Mil-
ler's work, as well as that of Miss Wheeler, are given. The former
has had previous experience in the Indian work, and understands
enough of the Dakota language to communicate with the children
through that medium, and also to teach them to read their vernacular

Bible. She also has a Dakota class in the Sabbath-school, and
takes an active part in the woman's meetings, and in visiting the sick
and inquirers. There are two day-schools among the Yaftktons taught
by Indians, namely, the Hill school, conducted by Charles Ironheart,
and the Ree school, taught by J'ierre La Pointe. Both have done sat-
isfactory work, and have exerted a positive influence in bringing the
youth to an understanding of Bible truth, and to a practical knowledge
of Christ.
The two outstation churches among the Yank tons have been main-
tained. Some of the native assistants have suffered temporarily from
influenza, but at other times they have been faithfully at work. Mr.
Williamson speaks highly of our " active and strong elders in each of
the churches, who keep up the meetings and church visitation and in-
struction." He himself has conducted an elders' meeting or theo-
logical class (it partakes of the nature of both) on Tuesday after-
noons. These sessions have been largely attended, and have proved
interesting and profitable.
The people at Flandreau are a good deal agitated over the question
of a sale of a portion of the great Sioux reservation, and the prob-
ability that it will lead to a change of their location. Two persons
have been received into the Flandreau church.
At Lower Brule Agency two preaching stations have been main-
tained. The attendance is good, but the Indians are much excited
over their future removal.
The following general presentation of the claims of the Dakota
Mission, prepared by Rev. John P. Williamson, is so instructive that
we present it entire :
"The Dakota Indians, numbering over 30,000, are the most numer-
ous of any tribe in the United States at present. P'or the last twenty
years the Sioux or Dakotas have received much attention, and the
number of missions among them has rapidly increased.
"The following table will show where these Indians are located and
the denominations at work among them :

work done by the several denominations, and the total school work
done by both church and government. The figures are not entirely
accurate, some being for 1888, some for 1889, and a few estimated,
but will give, we think, a fair comparative view.

" In regard to church work, it will be seen from the above table
that there is an ordained minister of some denomination, Protestant or
Catholic, to every 600 Dakotas, and that, not including Catholics,
one-tenth of the entire population are communicants. It will also be
seen that the communicants contribute on an average $2 per member.
" As to school work, the table will show that of a school population
(as returned by the agents) of 8,000 there are 4,391 who have attended
some kind of a school during the year.
"This is a wonderful record for the Sioux Nation, which twenty
years ago was one of the wildest and most uncivilized (as a body) of
any tribe in the United States."
Yankton.
Of the general improvement at Yankton Mr. Williamson writes as
follows : " Quietly, but deeply and effectively, the Spirit of God is
moving upon this people. The chains of idolatry are dropping off these
long-imprisoned souls, and the weak eyes are becoming accustomed
to the glorious light of the Sun of Righteousness. Among the 1,800
Yankton Indians we have three organized churches and four preach-
ing stations. The Episcopalians are doing about the same amount of
work. There are also, however, this winter about the same number
of dance-houses. The dancers seem to know that their time is short,
and in their zeal have reclaimed some of our converts, much to our
sorrow. On the other hand, a larger number have been won to the
truth than in any previous year. Twenty-nine have been added on
profession at Yankton Agency, 29 also at the Hill church, and 4 at
the Cedar church, making 62 among the Yanktons. The total num-

ber is 298." Mr. Williamson has preached generally three times a
week. Pastor Selwyn has also been busy.
Notwithstanding the fact that large numbers of children have been
gathered into the Government boarding-schools, the three day-schools
have been as full as ever, " showing," as Mr. Williamson says, "that
the time has not yet come to give up this work." Many of the bright-
est scholars are sent to the Santee Training-school, under the American
Missionary Association. Twenty-seven from the Yankton churches
are now there. Forty children from these day-schools are in the
Agency Government boarding-school. They are permitted to attend
the church and Sabbath-school of the mission. The relations between
the Government school and the church have been pleasant and satis-
factory. A number of children from these churches are also in schools
at the East. Mr. Williamson speaks highly of the influence of institu-
tions like Hampton and Carlisle as bearing upon the work among the
Dakotas.
The church among the Lower Brule Indians, known as the White
River church, has been under the care of Rev. Joseph Rogers, who
has labored faithfully amid many distractions and trials. As this is on
the great Sioux Reservation the people are much excited over the
question of land distribution and settlement, and there is much dissat-
isfaction over the location assigned them. Notwithstanding these dis-
couragements fifteen have joined the church on profession, making the
present number of communicants forty-nine. Mr. Rogers has main-
tained a day-school. A number of young men have learned to read
the Bible in their own language.
At Flandreau station there are only 221 Indians, of whom 114, or
more than half, are communicants in the Presbyterian church. There
is also a small Episcopal church among them. The native pastor.
Rev. John Eastman, reports that there is no one to be converted, but
a good many to be established. Five baptized children of the church
have been admitted on profession. There is a probability that the
people will be removed from Flandreau under the new land allot-
ments.
The Montana Mission established at Poplar Creek has been without
the oversight of any resident missionary since the withdrawal of Rev.
(Jeo. W. Wood. Native helpers, however, have been employed dur-
ir\g the year, and steps are now being taken for the permanent settle-
ment of a missionary. There is no ordained minister within sixty
miles.
The native Missionary Society at Yankton has long been a centre
and source of spiritual power. Mr. Williamson reports advancement
in its efficiency and interest He says : " They now support four na-
tive missionaries and their wives, — Rev. Samuel Hopkins and wife at
Devil's Lake, Rev. D. Renville and wife at Crow Creek Agency,
Elder James Brown and wife at Cheyenne River Agency, and Elder
James Redwing and wife at Standing Rock Agency. James Brown,"
he adds, *'has been sorely tried in the loss of three children in three
months^ but * casts his burden on the Lord.* Samuel Hopkins is in
the famme-stricken district, but his people have been favored in finding

great quantities of fish, and those who had been scattered are coming
together again. He has therefore been able to reopen the day-school
which he had closed, and his religious meetings are full. Mr. D. Renville
at Crow Creek has received several accessions to the church. James
Redwing is working hard against Roman Catholic opposition, but his
Indians thus far remain faithful."
Pine Ridge,
Rev. C. G. Sterling, located at Pine Ridge Agency, sends an inter-
esting report, varied with light and shade. Four points are being held
in connection with this station, — the Agency itself. Porcupine Creek,
White Clay, and the Cheyenne settlement on White River. These
speak a different language, yet they have not been left wholly uncared
for. A school has been established under the management of an In-
dian boy who had been educated in the Indian Territory.
Porcupine Creek is occupied by Miss Dickson and Miss McCreight,
and White Clay by Rev. Louis Mazawaka-Kinyanna, formerly pastor
at Sisseton Agency. At each of these stations regular services are
held, and efficient work has been done, and each point is sufficiently
central to favor the attendance of a large number of Dakotas from the
region round about.
The report notes changes which are constantly occurring under the
gradual adjustment of land settlement. The Indians are moving off
in groups to settle upon the land which has been assigned to them, or
which they expect to receive ; but notwithstanding these changes the
Pine Ridge Agency is so central as to be of permanent importance,
and it should be strengthened.
Mr. Sterling finds a specially interesting branch of his work in the
pastoral care of thirty Government boarding-school children, with
whom he holds two services on the Sabbath, besides drilling them at
other times in a knowledge of the Word of God. The field is divided
between the Presbyterian Mission and that of the Episcopal Church.
Both are doing their work faithfully and well, and they are in perfect
harmony. One of the young helpers employed at this Agency, James
Lynn, has entered Pierre University. He has been received under
the care of the Dakota Presbytery as a candidate for the ministry.
John Chaske, another young man educated in Massachusetts, is now
filling his place, and is highly spoken of in respect to Christian char-
acter and marked ability as a ready and clear speaker.
Mr. Sterling speaks with delight of the pleasant parsonage secured
to his family a year ago. It is certainly a very modest one, as even
carping critics would admit could they look upon a recent photographic
sketch.
Porcupine Creek,
There are indications of vigor and success at this station. Miss
Dickson and Miss McCreight have secured a strong hold upon those
who at first came only out of curiosity rather than to receive instruc-
tion. These self-denying ladies are worthy of all confidence, and of
the earnest prayer and support of the Church. They have lately been
Digitized by VjOOQIC

called to pass through a sad experience in the removal of a lai^e num-
ber of children from their care to a Government boarding-school,
which is under the care of Roman Catholics. It is exceedingly desir-
able that when such changes are made, as oftentimes they must be,
that the children who have been under Protestant training should, if
possible, be placed in some institution where they will receive the
same evangelical instruction.
The Indian preacher at White Clay, though employed but a short
time, has already given indications of a successful work.
Mr. Sterling's report of the Cheyenne community, in which there
are 500 people, is especially interesting. In the services which he
has held among these people settled on White River, there has often
been evidence of deep feeling. These poor waifs express their joy
at the message of forgiveness, and call upon God in prayer. Among
them was one who had been a disturber in the meetings conducted by
the Cheyenne boy, Elkanah Jan sen, who was at that time acting as
interpreter.
One of the most touching incidents in the report is that relating to
the subsequent suicide of this earnest and amiable Indian lad. He
had been educated at Carlisle, and had won the heart of Nfr. Sterling
to a very unusual degree. As he describes him, he was gentle,
affectionate, and thoughtful, and always revealed an excellent Christian
spirit. Mr. Sterling says : " I had looked upon him as a rare jewel
in the midst of this degraded and prejudiced people, a lovable man
among men. He had been at Carlisle ^ve years, where he had become
connected with the Presbyterian Church, and on his return to his
people he was ready to assist in Christian work in every way. He
had learned to play upon the organ, and also to speak earnest words
for his Master in religious services. But he was laboring under sore
trials. He was subjected to the most heartless and wicked treatment
of a stepfather, his own father having died. His sensitive nature was
also wounded repeatedly by the scorn of unbelieving companions,
who mocked at his profession and at his testimony for Christ. The
contrast to which he was subjected in returning from Carlisle to the
desolateness of an Indian home and community seemed almost too
nuich for him. At length, after a night of heavy sobbing, as those in
the next room afterward related, he went out while the darkness of
the early morning still lingered, and hung himself as a release from
his despair." This sad incident illustrates what' doubtless is often ex-
perienced by those who, after a period in a boarding-school, are sub-
jected to a heavy strain of despondency and temptation when they
return to their former homes.
There is at this Cheyenne station a log structure which was pur-
chased during the year, and in which is now a thriving school, under
the care of Eugene Standing Elk. He has received some education
in the Indian territory. The report states that this school is but a
meagre provision, and that some more permanent arrangement should
be made. The Government has as yet no school among these Chey-
ennes, and no other church than the Presbyterian has entered the field.
In regard to the future, Mr. Sterling's report says : " I believe these
Digitized by VjOOQIC
INDIANS — STATISTICS DAKOTA MISSION. II5
outposts have been wisely placed ; and that they may be able to do
the work at their doors, it is necessary, first, that everything in the
sunroundings of the missionary home may be made as agreeable and
inspiring as possible." Could the readers of this report know how
desolate is the aspect of most Indian reservations, this would be con-
sidered a very modest suggestion. The men and women who are
engaged in this work have welcomed great self-denial Their comfort
and whatever can cheer them in this labor should be carefully studied
by thoughtful Christians throughout the Church.
It is not too late to do something yet for the Indians — for the adults
as well as the children — and since the effort of the Government is
directed wholly to those who are of school age, the duly must rest
upon the Church to care also for those others who must otherwise re-
main in neglect. Especially should every effort be made to extend
sympathy and co-operaiion to young men and women who have re-
turned from school at Hampton or Carlisle, and who unless properly
backed and sustained are under an almost irresistible temptation to
again cast in their lot with their people, even though it involve a vir-
tual relapse to the old heathen customs. Better structures should be
reared for mission homes and schools. " The Episcopal Church no
longer erects log buildings," says the report, ** either at the agencies or
on the camps. The Government buildings also are of a much higher
order," and if the Presbyterian Church would keep pace with that im-
provement which is proposed for the Indians as a means of raising
them to civilization, it must devise more liberal things. There is pos-
sibly a feeling that whatever is done for the Indians is only temporary,
and that generous outlays are not wise, but it must be remembered
that for a whole generation yet, more or less work must be done for
tribes like the Sioux in their vernacular tongue, and that while out of
the entire Indian population of the United States only about 15,000
are found in schools. Government and Mission together, there are
tens of thousands of adults who are only to be reached by men who
will learn the language and cast in their lot for a life-work among these
people.

Il6 INDIANS— NEZ PERCES.
The Nez Perces.
The report which has been forwarded to the Board by Rev. G. L.
Deffenbaugh, \n regard to the work among the Nez Perces, shows the
number of communicants to be 858. The number jreceived during
the year was 64.
The work among the Nez Perces still remaining under the care ot
the Board of Foreign Missions, consists in the support and direction
of eight native ministers, seven of whom are pastors of churches, and
two licentiates, and in the educational work of Miss S. L. McBeth at
Mt. Idaho, assisted by a native helper, and that of Miss Kate McBeth
at Lapwai. Miss S. L. McBeth has labored, as for many years past,
in the education of young men for the ministry. Most of the native
pastors connected with the mission have been under her instruction.
During the year she has had nine regular pupils, besides others who
have received more or less instruction. Miss Kate McBeth has con-
tinued to devote her attention to the women and children at Lapwai.
Her knowledge of the language has rendered her a useful sympathizer
and helper in the Indian families.
An interesting report speaks of the sad havoc of the prevailing sick-
ness, which in many cases took the form of fatal pneumonia. The
church attendance at Lapwai has accordingly been diminished. Miss
McBeth notes the fact that, owing to the great scarcity of money,
many of the Indian families have suffered from want of food. There
is likely to be, also, a great lack of seed for planting the spring crops.
Miss McBeth expresses her satisfaction at the present management of
the Agency. The general outlook of the work among the women at
Lapwai is encouraging.
The numbers received into the churches show a good degree of
prosperity on the whole, though the past year has been one of sore
trial on account of the disease which so seriously affected all parts of
the land. There have been many deaths, owing to the great poverty
and exposure of the people. It has been a season, also, of more or
less suffering for lack of food, as the Indians were poorly prepared for
the winter.
Mr. Deffenbaugh, in speaking of the general outlook of the Indian
work, calls attention to the fact that the winter has been one of unex-
ampled difficulty and discouragement, owing not merely to the prevail-
ing sickness, but also to the great depth of snow — forming for much
of the time an effectual blockade. And yet, with conscientious effort
on the part of the Indian preachers, the work has progressed. Mr.
Deffenbaugh says : " Considering the fact that we are testing their
ability to carry on church work when thrown upon their own re-
sources, it would have been cause for gratitude had they merely held
their ground for another year, but they have done more than that.
The net increase of membership over last year is twenty-nine — this in
spite of the deaths. The number would have been considerably larger
had there not been an unusual mortality prevailing among the adult
church members."
Mr. Deffenbaugh expresses regret that the Board is not in a position
Digitized by VjOOQIC
INDIANS— SENEGAS. 1 1 /
to extend this work to at least one or two other needy tribes, especially
the Crows of Montana.
Mr. Deffenbaugh speaks highly of the present management of the
Lapwai Government school under the care of Mr. and Mrs. Eaves.
Miss S. L. McBeth, in a recent letter, gives the following interesting
facts:
** At the communion of the Lord's Supper the Sabbath after Christ-
maSy twenty-one were received into the Kamiah church on profession
of faith in Christ. Three of those were from among the heathen of
Joseph's band. On the following Sabbath another was received and
baptized. The Kamiah church now numbers 298 members. Two
from Meadows Creek, who also professed conversion at the meetings,
will probably unite with the church in the community to which they
belong."

The Senecas.
Alleghany^ Tuscarora^ and Tonawanda.
The work among the Senecas has been carried on by Revs. William
Hall and M. F. Trippe on the Alleghany Reservation, and Rev.
George Runciman in charge of the work at Cattaraugus. The Alle-
ghany, Tuscarora, and Tonawanda tribes have been under the care of
Mr. Trippe, the stations under his charge being Tuscarora, Tona-
wanda, Jemisentown, Oldtown, and Cornplanter. There are six out-
stations besides the above-named points.
At Tuscarora the work is in a prosperous condition. Some recent
accounts which have appeared in the New York Herald^ over the
signature of Mr. John Habberton, have been calculated to assure the
public of the hopefulness of the work among the Tuscarora Indians.
It is believed that the proportion of church members among them is
quite as large as in similar communities of white people. The ques-
tion has been opened of transferring the work among the New York
Indians to the care of the Presbytery of Buffalo, but the sentiment of
the Presbytery seems to be decidedly in favor of the present relations
of this work to the Board of Foreign Missions. A few special services
have been held among the Tuscaroras. Six have been added to the

an church at Akron, has preached twice a month to the India.) congre-
gation. He has been unable to do more than this. As compared with
the condition of things a few years ago, there has been a healthy ad-
vance not only in the church but in the sentiment of the Tonawanda
community. The noost prominent men of the tribe attend the little

mission church. The people through their own effort have renovated
the church property.
The Jemisentown community extends over an area of fifteen to
twenty square miles, and has three outstations. Three services have
been maintained on the Sabbath. There is a temperance society, a
woman's sewing- society, prayer-meeting, etc. The Sabbath-school
has been superintended by one of the Indians without any aid. A
bell costing $150 has been purchased, and one-half paid for by the
people. The Temperance Society at Jemisentown numbers 180
adult Indians. Rev. William Hall, who has been for over fifty years
in the service, has continued to maintain one service on the Sabbath,
missing only three Sabbaths in the year. He is eighty years of age,
and carries with him the character and influence which a half century
of faithful labor has accumulated.
The church at Oldtown was recently organized. It represents an
area of twelve square miles, and has two outstations. There has
been some little difficulty arising from the land agitation. The people
have raised over $150, on a pledge of $300, for a church building.
The Cornplanter Reservation suffered greatly during the winter
from the prevailing sickness. The people have maintained their own
Sabbath-school without help.
An interesting religious centre on the Tuscarora Reservation is
Miss Peck's school-house, known as the old boarding-school. This
good woman has lived here for over forty years as missionary teacher.
She has done a good work and is greatly revered by the Indians, who
love her for her self-denying and lifelong labor in their behalf. Her
house is a place for holding religious services. Altogether, eighteen
religious services have been held, thirteen of these maintained by the
Indians themselves. "They preach and teach," says Mr. Trippe's
report, ** superintend Sabbath- schools, conduct their temperance meet-
ings and sewing societies, plan their Christian work, attend to the
temporalities of the church," etc., and he adds, " this is certainly an
evidence of Christian progress and a matter of sincere congratulation."
Cattaraugus,
Mr. Runciman on the Cattaraugus Reservation has been blessed in
his labors during the year with a revival of the church, and particularly
the neighborhood of Pine Woods in the eastern portion of the Reser-
vation. Some thirty members have been added to the church. Twelve
others are desiring to do so, but are hindered by various complica-
tions with pagan usage. The present number of communicants in the
Cattaraugus church is 86 ; added during the year, 30, a gain of 26
over losses by death and otherwise. The whole number who have
been added at this station from the beginning is 699. Letters re-
ceived from Mr. Runciman during the year show that there has been
a return to a more faithful observance of religious services on the part
of some who had been more or less indifferent. The work seems
more prosperous on the whole than for some time past.

East Japan Mission.
The report of this mission for the past year necessarily reflects in
some measure the momentous crisis through which Japan is passing,
both politically and religiously. The establishment of a constitutional
government, which provides for a restricted representation of the
people and guarantees religious liberty, has produced intense excite-
ment. Coupled with the revision of the treaties with foreign powers
which has stirred the patriotism of the young men of the empire and
roused their indignation and ambition, a disturbing influence lias been
produced which has operated against the best results of mission work.
Buddhism also has taken the alarm and has organized a national union,
hoping thereby to secure the support of the government, and to con-
solidate its forces for the more successful resisting of Christianity.
In carrying out this purpose it has adopted Western methods, found-
ing an expensive university, establishing a theological seminary,
organizing a foreign missionary board, and disseminating information
through magazines and lectures. Unitarianism and Rationalism are
also making themselves felt, attempting through educational and lit-
erary agencies to influence the leaders of national and religious

EAST JAPAN— TOKYO. 121
thought. The mission report, from the pen of Rev. George P. Pier-
son, says : " At least four noteworthy causes during the past year have
seemed to operate against more rapid and extensive progress — the in-
definite postponement of treaty revision ; the abandonment, at least for
the present, of church union ; the general poverty succeeding typhoons
and l3oods ; and the unique political situation of which the novelty and
the afforded opportunity for patriotic expression and effort have dis-
tracted especially the student class. The first and second causes
have affected our evangelistic work, and the third and fourth our edu-
cational work." The " church union " referred to is the union be-
tween the Congregational churches of Japan and the United Church of
Christ, which a year ago seemed almost assured, but which after pro-
longed consideration has been indefinitely postponed.
Dr. and Mrs, Hepburn, the veterans of the mission, after a brief
sojourn in the home-land, where they met with a royal welcome and
did much to deepen the interest in the evangelization of Japan, have
rejoined the mission, as has Miss Alexander, after the usual furlough
in the United States ; while Miss Davis, Miss Leete, and Miss Smith
have returned for a well-earned rest. Miss Sarah Gardner has been
added to the teaching force of Graham Seminary. Notwithstanding
the peculiar difficulties encountered, the work in the several depart-
ments has been crowned with such success as to call for devout
thanksgiving to God. So far as figures can express it, this success
appears in the appended table of statistics. In presenting these sta-
tistics, it is proper to state that they are only approximately accurate.
Our missions in Japan are an integral part of the United Church of
Christ, which now comprises seven missions, the Cumberland Presby-
terian having been added during the year. As the work under these
several missions is virtually one, it is difficult to determine with ])re-
cision to what credit each is entitled.
'*Two features of the evangelistic work are worthy of note : i. The
establishment of a school for the training of male teachers. The full
course of study in the theological school is imperatively needed by our
ministers, but the graduates are not numer9us enough to meet the in-
creasing demand for workers. There is a class of men somewhat ad-
vanced in years who are unable to give many years to study, and who
yet give promise of usefulness. After some consultation the Japanese
pastors in Tokyo resolved upon the establishment of such a school,
and asked the missions of the Reformed and Presbyterian churches
for aid. The school was opened in September, 1889. In January,
1890, thirty students were present. Some of these men give promise
of much usefulness. The school is an experiment that can be fully
tested only by some years of trial. 2. Besides this, the successful ex-
periment has been made of employing an evangelistic superintendent,
who works under the Home Mission Board of the United Church of
Christ. Rev. Ishiwara Yasataro began his work in this capacity last
July, and reports 87 days spent in travelling ; places visited, 42 ;
sermons or addresses delivered, 66 ; people baptized, 37. It is be-
coming more and more evident that the future work of the foreign
missionary in Japan is chiefly to be either that of teacher or evangel-

istic superintendent. The need of well-trained native evangelists
cannot be too strongly emphasized.
** The principal literary work of the year has been the continuance of
work on a Bible dictionary undertaken by Dr. Hepburn before his
visit to America."
Educational,
Meiji Gakuin, — The faculty of this institution has been increased
by the addition of D. B. McCartee, M.D,, for a number of years con-
nected with our Central China Mission. The Preparatory Depart-
ment has been removed to Yurakucho, some three or four miles from
the College proper, a more central location, and therefore easier of
access to day students. The Theological Department, hitherto con-
ducted in Tsukiji, the Foreign Concession, has been transferred to the
Meiji Gakuin grounds and temporarily occupies Harris Hall for dor-
mitory and recitation purposes, awaiting the completion of the new
Theological Hall, which is being erected on the premises with funds
furnished mainly by the Synod of Japan and friends in the United
States.
Four students were graduated from the theological department
and 14 from the academic last year. The young ministers have all
been placed over churches glad to welcome them, while of the aca-
demic graduates (all Christians but one) five have entered u|)on the
study of theology in the institution, four have become teachers, two
are pursuing special studies, one is studying law at Yale, and two
have embarked in business. The entire number of students enrolled
was 213, of whom 129 were Christians, 40 of them having confessed
Christ during the year, the result in part of the divine blessing upon
the special services conducted by Mr. Luther D. Wishard, one of the
secretaries of the International Y. M. C. A.
Graham Seminary. — In accordance with the plan recommended by
the mission and sanctioned by the Board, this seminary and the Saku-
rai school for young women (Bancho) are to be consolidated. The
plan provides for the sale of the properties now occupied by these
schools and the erection of suitable buildings on a lot not far from
Bancho already secured for the purpose. Partial provision having
been made during the sununer for the Bancho school on the new
premises, the classes were opened there last autumn, and the senior
class of Graham Seminary was transferred and united with that of
Bancho. As soon as the buildings in process of erection are com-
pleted, the entire consolidation will be effected, the names of both
schools being perpetuated by being applied to each of the two main
buildings.
Graham Seminary, like all girls' schools, has felt the influence of
the national agitation and the somewhat changed attitude of the Jap-
anese toward foreigners. Nevertheless, of the 85 on the roll when
the report was written 77 were pupils who had been in attendance the
previous year, showing marked confidence in the school on the part
of parents, notwithstanding the present prejudice against Christian
schools. The progress of the pupils in their studies is reported as on

EAST JAPAN— TOKYO. 1 23
the whole thorough and satisfactory. Twenty-seven of those enrolled
are professing Christians, thirteen of them having confessed Christ
during the year. Others have expressed a desire to be baptized, and
are only awaiting the consent of their parents. Five were graduated
last year, of whom one has been married, one is pursuing higher
studies, and three are teaching. The teachers and pupils of this Semi-
nary take part in three Sabbath-schools, and the branch of the King's
Daughters established here is sustained with unabated interest.
Sakurai School (Bancho) — As intimated above, in pursuance of the
plan for consolidation this school has already been transferred 10 the
new premises. Eighteen new pupils were admitted last year, and the
first class in the collegiate department, consisting of nine, was gradu-
ated last June, all but one being professing Christians. Most of these
are now teaching in various parts of the empire. On this point the
report says : " It had been a matter of anxiety as to whether young
women who had of necessity become accustomed to a somewhat dif-
ferent manner of living from what could be expected in country homes
and schools would be willing to go to such self-denying work as would
be wailing for them. Now we record with gratitude that when, after
class-day exercises were over, the call for teachers in six country
schools was presented every member of the class, except two who
were married before they entered the collegiate school, expressed a
willingness to go. They have worked most satisfactorily thus far."
A steady and healthy religious interest was maintained in this school
throughout the year. Twelve of the pupils united with the church,
and the benevolent societies ^nd Christian associations manifested a
commendable activity, the latter furnishing laborers for seven Sunday-
schools. One death occurred in this school during the year, the first
in the history of the institution, the girl being the first child baptized
in Tokyo.
Of Takata^ a distant outstation where work has been carried on
under the supervision of the Bancho teachers, the report says: "Ta-
kata has been greatly blessed. Miss Milliken, who has been working
there for six months, reports the dedication of a new church and the
conversion of ten girls in the Christian school. This school carries on
three Sabbath-schools, two at Takata and one at Naoetsu, a neighbor-
ing town." Two conversions are reported in the school at Utsunomiya^
a school under Japanese management, but where assistance is rendered
by teachers and pupils from Bancho.
The Sumiyoshi cho day-school in Yokohama, under the superintend-
ence of the ladies of the Dai Machi school, had a regular attendance
of 280 children. In the Sabbath-school connected with it two bap-
tisms are reported. The school work in this city has increased so
much in volume and importance that the mission has transferred Miss
Case from Dai Machi to Yokohama, and she is henceforth to devote
her entire time to this work. Four Bible- women have been laboring
in Yokohama under the direction of the mission.
Of the school at Dai Machi^ owned by Mr. Okami, a Japanese
Christian, but depending on Misses West, Alexander, and Case for re-
ligious instruction, the report says : '^ Notwithstanding the somewhat
Digitized by VjOOQIC
124 EAST JAPAN— TOKYO.
reactionary changes in the girls* school the average attendance in the
Shoyei School for young ladies has been 45, and the work done has
been most satisfactory. The attendance upon the Sabbath-school and
church is good, and there were two baptisms during the past year.
The Shoyei Preparatory School, also supported by Mr. Ok ami, num-
bers 190 pupils. The Sabbath-school in connection with it is car-
. ried on with the assistance of the young women from the Shoyei
School, who are thus being trained in Sabbath-school work. These
schools are near the *Dai Machi* church, Tokyo, and work in con-
nection with it. We have one more school under our care, namely,
the children's school in Shinagawa. This has grown until the build-
ing erected last year is full. The pupils number 65."
The girls* school at Saporo^ on the Island of Yezzo, during the ab-
sence of Miss Smith on furlough, has been in the hands of Miss Ka^the-
rine Light, who, in addition to her usual school duties, teaches a class
of ladies in the afternoons. The report fails to give details.
"The Kemo No. 2, or Shiba Primary School, under the care of
Mrs. McCauley, has had on the roll during the year 130 pupils, with
an average attendance of 110. The school has labored under disad-
vantage during the year, not being able to find a suitable place for a
building sufficiently near the present site to retain the children. So,
contrary to the government regulations, the children sat on the floor,
the old building not being sufficiently strong to allow the additional
weight of desks and chairs. However, ground has at last been leased
about ten minutes* walk from the old place, and building will soon
begin. There have been three children's meetings held weekly dur-
ing the year, besides a Sunday-school and a parents* Sunday evening
meeting. The families of the pui)ils have been visited legularly, partly
by the teachers of the school and partly by the women of Miss Young-
man's Bible Institute. Since the transfer of the Bible Institute to the
ladies at Dai Machi, the entire work is done by the teachers in the
school and Mrs. McCauley. One of the teachers, being a graduate
of the Bible Institute, has the religious instruction in the school entirely
in her charge. She is also superintendent of the Sunday-school, is
always present at the children's and parents' meetings, and is alto-
gether a most efficient woman. The older children of the school
attend the Shiba church."
The Tokyo Bible Institute^ hitherto under the care of Miss Young-
man, but now transferred to Miss Alexander and Miss West, held its
fifth anniversary during the year. Miss Youngman writes: "The
work of the women at the country stations has been greatly blessed
and their labors appreciated by the churches. The call for such
workers has been greater than we could fill. In one or two instances
remuneration in part has been given for their services. This is a step
in advance worthy of note. It is no small encouragement to the work
to know that while the women were sent during the five years ten dif-
ferent times to the country, not in one instance was a complaint made,
or a censure heard, from the section of country to which they
went. Increased earnestness and faithfulness of the women have been
Digitized by VjOOQIC
WEST JAPAN— OSAKA. 1 25
manifested in various ways — in seeking new places for meetings, in
tract distribution, in visiting the sick, or speaking a word for Jesus."
The students of the Institute have taken care of three prayer-meet-
ings and assisted in Christian work in many ways. The number in
attendance has varied during the year, the present enrollment being
22. Fifteen are wives or widows, their ages varying from 17 to 48.
Only eight receive support, and that but partial. A summer Bible-
school was held at Kogawa Mura (God-mountain village), from the
5th to the 30th of August. In Tokyo two primary schools are re-
ported, one under the care of Mr. Yoshida, with 50 pupils, and the
other already referred to in Mrs. McCauley's report. The need of an
industrial scnool to help students from these preparatory schools to the
Meiji Gakuin is much felt.
Mrs. Thompson last year opened a school in Kanda (Divine field),
which has since become a preaching station, and at which two persons
have recently applied for baptism.
The report of the mission closes with these thoughtful yet hopeful
words : " Generally speaking, a definite, aggressive national campaign
cannot yet be undertaken. We feel accordingly content to do well
the duty evidently pressing, and to wait patiently the revealing of
God's plan. Yet, so far from being disheartened, we have much for
which to thank God and to take courage, committing ourselves to Him
whose we are and whom we serve."
West Japan Mission.
The work of the Osaka'Mission is so intimately connected with that
of the United Church of Christ in Japan, that any changes in that
church are very important to this mission. During the year the Cum-
berland Presbyterian Mission, whose work is in the city of Osaka and
vicinity, connected itself with the United Church, so that the cause of
union in Japan is still making progress, even though it has not been as
rapid as was hoped at one time.
Dr. Mitchell's visit was regarded by all the members of the mission
as a pleasure not soon to be forgotten ; and the letters from the field
urge upon the Board the importance of such intimate contact with the
missionaries and their work as an important means of gaining definite
knowledge of their operations.
During the year Rev. Messrs. T. T. Alexander and C. M. Fisher
and their wives have returned after a furlough in this country, and it
is hoped that Dr. and Mrs. Hearst have by this time also reached their
field. The mission has been increased during the year by the arrival
of the Rev. and Mrs. G. W. Fulton, Miss McGuire, Miss Shaw, and
Miss Loveland. Rev. J. B. Porter has been sent tentatively to Kyoto.
This was done with the concurrence and co-operation of the mis-
sionaries of the American Board, who have hitherto been the only
missionaries in this large city.

126 WEST JAPAN— EVANGELISTIC.
Evangelistic Work,
The churches in connection with this mission have shown their
usual activity. There has been a gain all along the line, not in num-
bers merely, but in Christian life also. Many of these humble Chris-
tians seem to be truly taught of the Holy Spirit. One of the older
n)issionaries, in speaking of a Session meeting, writes : " The questions
asked and the instruction given to the- candidates filled me with thank-
fulness to God. One of the elders is one of the prominent men of this
province as a business man. The courage and yet humility, together
with the spiritual wisdom which he showed last evening, led me to say
to myself: *Can this be the man who four years ago was constantly
running to me with his doubts and misunderstandings concerning the
Bible ? ' Surely one such man saved is reward enough for all the labors
and prayers of these years ! "
The First Church of Kanazawa has not made as rapid progress as
some others, but is now under the care of a good pastor, and every-
thing is in excellent working order. The Tonotnachi church ^in
Kanazawa), though a new organization, has made vigorous financial
efforts from the start, and while yet dependent, to a small extent,
on the mission, it has this year completed a new building, and its
prospects are now bright. Self-supj)ort of churches on the foreign
mission field is a subject which occupies the time, heart, and thought
of our missionaries, who are engaged in the evangelistic work, to
a much larger extent than is generally supposed, and in this mission
with encouraging results. In many cases the native Christians con-
tribute out of their poverty amounts which, when the rates of wa^es
in the two countries are compared, would put many of our Christian
people in the United States to shame.
The North Church, in Osaka, is well organized, and reports a gain
of over I GO members. The pastor of this church was called to Tokyo,
but the Presbytery refused to dissolve the pastoral relation, a con-
stitutional action satisfactory to both pastor and people. The South
Church, in Osaka, made a gain during the year of 50. It attempted,
for a while, to be self supporting, but owing to removals and deaths of
important members it has been obliged to again seek assistance from
the mission. It is sorely in need of a house of worship, and is making
strenuous efforts to secure the necessary amount to build. The
people can no longer invite their friends to hear the Gospel, because
there is not even standing room for the church members. They are
not able, with their utmost effort, to accommodate themselves and still
leave room for others to hear the truth.
The church at Hiroshima is making good progress. During the
year, while many of its members have removed, it has made a net
gain of about 20, bringing the membership up to 100. Hiroshima is a
bigoted place. When our missionaries first went there to live, they
were met with rude remarks and insults of various kinds from the chil-
dren in the streets. But this has been lived down, and they are now
everywhere treated with politeness. This result has been attained

largely by three Sabbath-schools carried on among the young children
by Mrs. Bryan and Miss Cuthbert. These schools have encountered
all kinds of obstacles, from opposition Sunday-schools conducted by
Buddhist priests to violence, in order to prevent the children entering
the building where the school was held, but all without the desired
effect The following note from Miss Cuthbert's report will illustrate
this fact: ''Some time ago an old man who lives next door to the
Sunday-school building became very strongly «nipressed with the idea
that if all the children of the neighborhood came so regularly to my
Christian school they would all become Christians, and so undertook
to prevent their coming. Failing in several instances, he finally paid
money to two boys to get them to come to school and disturb the
order by whistling. I detected them in this and suppressed them.
But the old man was not yet willing to give in, and the next Sabbath
undertook to keepjthe children out by main force, taking position in
front of the door and driving them off with a long bamboo pole.
Finally, when I came and he saw / was not disposed to run as the chil-
dren did, he turned and ran himself before 1 got within speaking dis-
tance ; the children followed me into the house and we had school as
usual, and I was delighted to learn not long since that his own chil-
dren now come to the school, and not only he, but his whole family,
are very much interested in Christianity.'' It is not in the larger and
stronger churches where the strength of the missionaries is exerted, for
after a church is well organized it is expected to move on with veiy
little oversight from those who established it.
Of these smaller churches and preaching places some have been but
recently undertaken, while others are of some years' growth. Besides
the churches enumerated above, there are under the care of the mis-
sion i8 preaching stations: at Kanazawa, 4; at Osaka, 7; and at
Hiroshima, 7. Most of the last named, once worked from Osaka, have
•been turned over to the Hiroshima station. Some of these, as Hagi
or Tsuruga, are the centres of populous regions. Of these places only
one, Bingomachi, has been abandoned, not because of lack of interest,
but because of internal discord, while work has been undertaken in
two new-places, Sakye and Tsuruga. The strength of this niiwion has
been put mainly into evangelistic work, and there is no doubt but that
the '^ foolishness of preaching" is jwst as effective in Japan as else-
where.
Educational Work»
The Boy^ School in Kanazawa has moved into new quarters,
being compelled by the Government to give up its old place ; the price
paid for it, together with a grant from the Board, enabled the school
to not only secure a much more desirable location, but also to put up
some much-needed buildings. The study of the Scriptures has been
pursued with evident interest. There have been about 5o pupils
in attendance. Of these about one-third are professing Christianas.
Four pupils have been baptized. These men have formed them-
selves into a Young Men's Christian Association, and with assistance

from the Girls' School sustain a Sabbath-school and a preaching-place
in the city where good work has been done.
The Girl^ School in Kanazawa, — The work in this school has
enjoyed its usual prosperity. The Bible is tiaily taught as a text-book
The number of pupils this year is 50, more than half of them being
professing Christians, of whom 16 have been hopefully converted
during the year; the Christian life of the girls is promoted by a wise
use of their zeal in the Sabbath- schools and Bible-work.
The Itchijo Gakko— Girls* School, Osaka, — This school has suffered
seriously from the anti-foreign reaction, which has so blocked the
wheels of treaty revision. It is probably only a temporary stay of
proceedings, however, but in the meantime it has seriously affected
some of our schools. How this has been done is, perhaps, best told
in the words of Miss Garvin in her report : '^ Christian schools all over
the country, but especially girls' and women's schools, are feeling the
effects of this undercurrent of opposition. It has worked for the most
part silently, almost stealthily, and is therefore the more difficult to
deal with. The experience of this school is a fair sample of what
others are undergoing. Unfounded slanders appeared in the city
papers, whose editors are glad to publish anything that will tell against
Christianity. These printed slanders, together with purposely cir-
culated rumors and other malicious influences outside the school, have
resulted in nearly one-half of our pupils leaving us. Some returned to
their homes ; some entered schools under the control of the Japanese.
The number of pupils now in attendance is 25." Meanwhile ro girls
have received baptism, and a Sabbath-school of 120 pupils is con-
ducted in the school chapel, both for the i)urpose of overcoming the
prejudice of their neighbors and to instruct the girls how to teach and
superintend Sabbath-schools, so that they may be prepared to enter
upon Christian work at their homes when they leave school.
77ie Children's School, Kanazawa, — This school also rejoices in
larger, more healthful, and more commodious quarters, secured through
the assistance of the governor of the province, whose children attend
the school. Of course there is no effort to count results in the way of
conversions or baptisms in such an institution, but if the child-faith of
some of these little people could be communicated to older people it
would be a great gain, as the following extract from Miss McGuire's
report shows: ** Every Friday afternoon a * Children's Prayer Meet-
ing' is held in one of the school-rooms. The faith shown by these
little people in a prayer-answering Father might well put many older
Christians to shame. A large number of the children recite Bible
verses, and some of them always request prayer on special subjects.
One dear little boy, each time for several weeks, asked us to pray that
a sick classmate might be restored to us. At last the child was better
and returned to school. I was pleased to notice at the next prayer-
meeting that the boy who had been praying for his friend's recovery,
did not forget to thank God for the answer to his prayers.
" A little girl for more than a year regularly asked for prayer that
her mother might give up her idols and learn to love the true God.
The child pleaded with her heathen mother for a long time, until at
Digitized by VjOOQIC

length her faith has been rewarded. The mother has ceased to bow
down to graven images. She attends church and prayer-meetings
regularly, and has recently asked for baptism and admission into the
church with her littie daughter."
There have been 62 pupils connected with this school this year, both
boys and girls, ranging in age from three to fourteen years. A native
pastor's estimate of Miss Porter's work is as follows : " I am learning
more and more to realize the importance of work among children.
The Japanese who become Christian after their hearts are polluted
with sin are unsatisfactory as Christians, just like trees that we may
try to straighten after they have arrived at mature age. This work for
children begins at the beginning and keeps them straight."
Miss Cuthbert began a small day-school for girls in Hiroshima with
the twofold purpose of getting a passport to live in the interior and of
training the girls. This school has only an attendance of 12 pupils,
but, under the circumstances, that is as many as were wanted. These
girls study the Bible and are very regular in their attendance upon
church, though that is not required of them. One was a Christian
when she came, and one more has been converted since her connection
with the school.
Advancement,
The mission is very desirous of continued advance along these
three lines :
I. Evangelistic, — The mission at its annual meeting passed the fol-
lowing resolution : " That we respectfully ask the Board to send out as
soon as possible, at least Jive new men to aid in the work of the mis-
sion, in view of the very pressing need in the region south and west of
Osaka.'^ This was accompanied by a very comprehensive letter,
signed by every member of the mission and all the native pastors who
could be conveniently reached with the document. The reasons for
the request are :
1. To occupy territory which can only be worked at a great dis-
advantage at present.
2. This region is left by other missions to our occupancy.
3. It is one of the most populous and prosperous regions of the
empire.
4. To co-operate with the Dutch mission on the island of Kyushu^
the third in extent and second in population in the empire, and as yet
practically untouched.
5. All who are acquainted with Japan, her history, her present con-
dition, and the work of the " United Church," agree that n07o is the
time to push matters there.
II. Educational, — Since the Cumberland Mission has become iden-
tified with the " United Church," the question of enlarged educational
work, in union with them and the Southern Presbyterian Mission, is
being agitated. As yet no detailed plans have been determined upon.
III. Literary Work, — ^This mission has expended almost its whole
force in evangelistic work, and therefore has had little or no oppor-

tiinity for literary work. The need of this kind of labor has been
keenly felt, and it is hoped that since the older missionaries have re-
turned to the field, something may be done in this line.

River, and twenty-five miles overland from the commercial port, Chemulpho ; laborers —

The Board has sent during the year two new missionaries to
Korea, Rev. S. A. Moffett and Miss S. A. Doty, the latter to engage
in school-work. During the year, also, Dr. Power, an assistant
medical missionary, was recalled, and Dr. H. N, Allen, who had
been engaged as secretary and director of the Korean embassy in
Washington, which position he had assumed at the earnest request
of the King, was reappointed by the Board with a view to opening
a missionary station at the port of Fusan, on the southeast coast, if
upon visiting the place such a step should be found feasible. This
is one of the open ports, and is situated at the mouth of a small
river or roadstead, the port being largely a Japanese community,
while the native Korean city lies farther inland. It was found impos-
sible for the present to purchase or even to rent suitable property,
whereupon, with the consent of the Board, Dr. Allen removed to
Chemulpho, the port of Seoul, lying on the west coast. He is there
located tentatively, with permission to practive his medical profes-
sion among foreigners, and meanwhile to study the ground, and re-
port upon the feasibility of making it a station.
The Korea Mission has also considered the question of commenc-
ing work at some other port on the northeast coast. No conclu-
sions have as yet been reached by the Board, but meanwhile tokens
of encouragement are multiplied, and proofs are furnished that
Korea as a mission field is full of promise. The following sketch
of the first stages of missionary effort in this so-called Hermit Nation,
even before it had been opened to foreign intercourse, will reveal
the circumstances which scattered the germs of the truth very
widely in the northern portions of the country at least fifteen years
ago. It throws much light upon the Korean mission field.
One of the most vigorous missions in the Chinese Empire is that
of the Scotch United Presbyterian Church in Manchuria. This
work was commenced by Rev. John Ross, who, as a result of many
years of labor, is enabled now to look upon a thoroughly established
and ever-expanding Gospel work among all classes, high and low,
in that far-off region. To him really the beginnings of evangelical
work in Korea as well as in Manchuria are due. The most eastern

port of Manchuria is known as the Korean gate, and it has for along
time been the only place where Korean merchants could exchange
the products of their country for Chinese merchandise. Mr. Ross
visited the place in 1873, ^^^ ^^^ numerous interviews with Koreans,
who were extremely anxious to get information from him^ but whose
lips were sealed whenever he sought to gain knowledge of their
country. He was entirely foiled in his efforts to accomplish any-
thing, but next year he paid another visit to the Korean gate, and
with much better results. Fortunately, a Korean merchant, who
had invested all his capital in a commercial venture, had lost his
goods by the upsetting of a boat on one of the Korean rivers, and
had reached Manchuria penniless. In his sorry plight he was em-
boldened to run some risk for the sake of gaining a livelihood. He
therefore escaped at midnight from his companions, and started for
Moukden, not allowing even his own brother to know his plans lest
the whole family of relatives should be put to death in consequence
of his desertion. This man became the teacher of Mr. Ross, and
assisted him in translating portions of the Gospel of Luke into
Korean. Rev. Mr. Mclntyre, another missionary of the Scotch
Presbyterian Church, assisted Mr. Ross in this good work. Some-
what later, another Korean, a peddler of quack medicines, had come
to want, and was glad to be employed as a compositor. He seemed
a most clumsy and inapt pupil, sluggish in mind and inactive in
body, but to the surprise of his employers, he not only became skil-
ful through plodding industry, but also gladly accepted the Gospel
which he had been employed to print. Still later, a younger man
attached to the annual Korean embassy to China, joined the circle,
and proved a most expert compositor. The quack peddler, who
had now gained considerable knowledge of the Christian faith, and
had developed an earnest Christian character, was employed as tract
distributor, and was sent with portions of the Scriptures to his native
valley in the northern interior of Korea. After six months he re-
turned, giving a good report of the work, and calling upon the mis-
sionary to go to the valley and baptize a number of people who had
become believers. He returned for another tour, of which he sub-
sequently gave still more encouraging accounts. Meanwhile, a rev-
olution had occurred in the Korean capital, and a large number of
men, including many of the progressive party, were killed, while
multitudes of others were scattered as refugees into Manchuria.
Still others found their way back to their native valleys in Korea,
where they saw the tracts which the native helper had distributed.
They were just in the frame of mind to accept the truth, and they
lent their influence to its dissemination. In the next autumn Mr.
Ross and Mr. Webster, another colleague of the missionary, resolved
at whatever hazard to visit these valleys, waiting until the rivers
should be frozen over as the only means of crossing. In or^er to
reach them high passes covered with snow were to be traversed.
Much of the way they were unable to ride, and were often subjected
>o great exposure. Finally, however, they reached the borders of
the first valley, where they took refuge in a small Chinese inn for

134 KOREA.
quiet and rest They had occupied their quarters, however, less
than an hour when a body of a dozen Koreans, gentlemanly in ap-
pearance, garments, manner, and speech, came to welcome them.
These were refugees from Seoul. The missionaries were conducted
to the home of the principal farmer of the neighborhood, in whose
guest-room they found a crowd of men. Every one of these refugees
became a convert and was baptized. The oldest was a hereditary
official, and possessed the highest Korean literary degree. The
next day thirty of the neighboring families appeared, and wished to
be examined for baptism. It had not been thought proper that their
wives should accompany them, as they were to meet men, but the
wives, also, and some of the children were reported as believers.
The next day, crossing a ridge in the deep snow, a second valley
was visited, and with the same results. Nearly a hundred men,
varying from i6 to 72 years of age, presented themselves for baptism.
In three valleys 85 men were baptized, and far more were postponed
for further instruction. As the winter was approaching, it was neces-
sary for the missionaries to return. They were informed that in no
less than twenty-eight valleys in Northern Korea were companies of
believers waiting to be received into the church by baptism. The
next summer Mr. Ross revisited the valleys, but persecution of so
bitter a nature had sprung up that he thought it wise to desist from
extending the work. The landlords, who were Chinese, and who
rented their land to the Korean farmers, looked upon this work as a
plot formed against their interest. One of the refugees from Seoul,
thinking it now safe to return to the capital, received special instruc-
tion that he might become a native colporteur at the capital. A year
later he wrote to Mr. Ross, requesting him to visit Seoul, as thirteen
of his friends desired to be formed into a congregation. The next
year after that the missionary was again urged to visit the capital, as
there were reported to be 79 believers in and around Seoul. " But,
meanwhile,'* says Mr. Ross, "our American Presbyterian brethren,
forward in all mission work, sent to Korea one and then other mis-
sionaries." Mr. Ross at length visited Seoul, and became the guest
of Rev. Mr. Underwood, and was present with him when he organ-
ized his small company of believers into a Presbyterian church- It
turned out that two members of this church were cousins of the man
whom Mr. Ross had trained for the work in Moukden. They had
been believers for six years. It also appeared that thirteen of the
fourteen baptized members forming the church were converts either
of that man or of another who had left Moukden earlier. "But,"
adds Mr. Ross, " what was most interesting to me was the assurance
that there were over three hundred men of that class in the city who
were believers, but who for various reasons were not prepared pub-
licly to join the church."
The health of the Korea Mission ha» been good, though both
Mrs. Underwood and Mrs. Heron suffered seriously for a time.
With the blessing of God, both are now fully restored. The mission
is now stronger in numbers, in knowledge of the field and of the
language, and in all the requisites for effective work, than it has

ever been before. Dr. Heron has had charge of the hospital, and
has also been employed professionally at the royal palate, and has
engaged to some extent in practice among foreigners, reporting all
receipts for this work to the treasury of the mission. Mr. and Mrs.
Underwood, in the early part of the year, made an extended tour in
the interior of Korea, where they found the way open for missionary
effort so far as large numbers of the people were concerned, but
they also met with abundant proofs that the Korean officials were
not prepared to admit the preaching of the Go^el. Mr. Under-
wood did not feel free, owing to this fact, to engage in direct and
open mission work, but Mrs. Underwood, as a practical physician,
found abundant opportunity to heal the sick, and thus in a general
way allay suspicion, and win the confidence of the people. Mr.
Underwood has, in the latter part of the year, been busily engaged
in carrying a dictionary and other Korean books through the press
in Japan. Mr. Gifford's first year has been devoted largely to the
study of the language. He has also acted as treasurer of the mission,
and has given instruction in the orphanage. Miss Hay den, who
has had the care of the girls' school, has rendered faithful and effi-
cient service. Mrs. Heron was engaged in active Christian work
until the condition of her health compelled her to lay it aside, it is
necessary to proceed with great caution as yet in Korea, for, although
the people are generally believed to be favorable to progress in edu-
cation, and are even disposed to be tolerant of missionary effort,
yet, inasmuch as there is a conservative faction which is ready to
take advantage of anything that looks like progress, it is a part of
prudence to proceed slowly and cautiously. There is, however, an
almost unanimous belief on the part of those who carefully study
the field, that the country is being prepared for an early presenta-
tion of the Gospel, and for the development of all lines of true ad-
vancement.
During the year Korea was visited by one of the Secretaries of
the Board, Dr. Mitchell, who, after looking over the field carefully,
and weighing its difficulties as well as its promise, writes : ** I want
you to tell the Board that, notwithstanding all the perplexities which
have attended the work in Korea, if they could see this group of
young, intelligent, and ardent men and women, the seed and certain
prophecy of the true Church of Christ in Korea, if they could see
their work and hear their prayers, they would stand up and sing a
hymn of praise to God."
One of the most interesting incidents in connection with the work
in Korea, is the fact that already preliminary steps have been taken
by the mission to carry out the recommendation of the General
Assembly looking to the formation of union churches pn the mission
fields. Two missionaries from the Victoria General Assembly ia
Australia, arrived on the field during the year, Mr. and Miss Davis.
These representatives of our Church in that country, which a half
century ago was itself a mission field, have been gladly welcomed
by our missionaries, and they were also welcomed heartily by Dr.
Mitchell, who had the pleasure of meeting them, and whose account

of them to the Board is most gratifying. No action has as yet been
taken by the Board in connection with the Presbyterian Church of
Victoria, but the natural drift of events, as well as the sympathies
and fellowship of the missionaries, is all in the direction of union.
There seems to be good prospect that at an early day Korea will
follow the example of Japan in demonstrating the feasibility of a
United Missionary Presbyterian Church in heathen lands.

It gives us pleasure to see that the usual cheering report from
this far-off mission has not this year changed its tenor. The church
in the Laos field has been of remarkably steady and rapid growth.
There have been adult accessions to the membership at each month-
ly communion for the last twenty-two consecutive months, and in
fifty-five out of the last sixty-one months, or since October, 1884.
Large annua] accessions have been made for the last seven years,
and this increase has grown steadily larger each year-
There has been little interruption in the work of the mission,
aside from the temporary absence of Mr. Dodd and Miss Eakin in
Bangkok, to have their marriage ceremony performed in the pres-
ence of our United States Minister ; there was but one removal
from the country, in the case of Dr. and Mrs. Peoples, who left in
August, on a furlough, for America. Some departments of the
work, especially itinerating, were harassed by a troublesome case of
civil process against one of our native helpers, Noi-Saliy which con-
tinued through eight months of the year. With these interruptions
the work, in all its departments, was carried forward with as much
vigor as the small force of the mission would permit.
Cheung-Mai,
The medical department was not neglected/ though the station is
without a missionary physician. Dr. McGilvary gave this work all
the time that the other cares of his missionary' work would allow
him to bestow. Having the services of Dr. M. A. Cheek to perform
important surgical operations, and a native assistant whom Dr. Gary
trained to take charge of the dispensary and oversee the services in
the hospital, he has been able to make this department of great
benefit to the place and to the mission. It has been productive of
some tangible results in Ghristian work. One important family, in
Digitized by VjOOQIC
LAOS — CHEUNG-MAI. 1 39
a new district, has been brought into the church through its agency,
and many others have gained a good degree of knowledge of Chris-
tian truth, some of these from a distant province.
At the dispensary medicines were sold to the amount of 2,212
rupees.
A cheap temporary hospital building has been doing good service
in the place of the fine new hospital that the mission had hoped to
have completed before this time. If it had not been for the misfor-
tune of the early failure of Dr. Gary's health, we doubtless would
already have had a fitting monument to the loving charity of our
American Sabbath-school children in the completed building. But
the good work is still going forward, and the closing days of the
year have brought news of the coming of the new physician, Dr.
McKean, with his family ; and the missionaries have now confident
hope that the temporary hospital building will soon give place to
one that will meet the wants of the public and fulfill tKe expecta-
tions of those who so generously contributed to its erection.
Special mention is made of the kind services of Dr. Cheek in per-
forming a number of important surgical operations and of his care for
some of the missionaries during the year. The doctor's large business
interests oftentimes place him in a position in which he can render
important service to the missionaries in their work, and he seems to
take a pleasure in doing these kind favors.
The Educational work of Cheung-Mai consists in the Girls* School,
a School for Boys, and the Theological Training Class. The Girls'
School is under the management of Misses Griffin and Westervelt,
assisted in the early part of the year by Miss Belle Eakin, who
joined the mission the year previous. Three native teachers sup-
port the ladies in the work of teaching. The school enrolled 91
pupils during the year, 71 of whom were boarders. Nineteen of
the girls became members of the church. The teachers in the
school labor under the serious difficulty of not having text-books in
the native Laos language. All the books they have are in the
Siamese tongue.
The Boys' School has had a history of but two years. In its sec-
ond year it enrolled 94 pupils, with an average attendance of 65, of
whom 40 were boarders. That is the full capacity of the school's
accommodation for boarders. There were many other applicants,
but they could not be received. Another year Mr. Collins will
need additional class rooms and a new dormitory.
Eleven of the pupils were received into the church. School
was in session for eight months of the year. Very commendable
progress was made by the pupils. The closing examinations were
attended by all the missionaries and by H. R. H. Prince Sonapan-
dit The Prince was so highly pleased with the result of the year's
work that he promised a donation of Siamese text-books to the
school. One of the brethren writing about the schools says : " We
attended the closing examinations of the schools for both boys and
girls, and were more than pleased. The Girls' School has had a
record for some years past. The Boys' School had a record to

make. Brother Collins may be highly gratified, and we may all be
thankful for the progress made." This school has enjoyed during
the last seven months the privilege of a circulating library, a gift of
Dr. John M. Watt, of Ohio. Three hundred books have been drawn
by the boys.
The Theological Training Class is the department which is looked
to with most interest in all the educational work of the mission, be-
cause it stands in closest relation to the most pressing need of that
field. This year was its first experiment. Fourteen of the best
men formed this class. The course of study was somewhat limited.
The students were engaged in active Christian work a portion of
each week during the term, and since its close ten of them have
been employed as evangelists. Mr. Dodd says : " We feel grateful
to God for the evident blessing bestowed upon the infant undertak-
ing, and hope for more solid and uninterrupted work during the
coming year."
Lakawn.
The medical and school work in Lakawn, as well as all the other
departments of missionary interests, are yet in their infancy.
The Medical work has been under the care of. Dr. Peoples until
last August, when he and his wife returned temporarily to this
country. This work has so far gained the favor of the rulers, that
the First Governor gave a fine location for a hospital, and the Sec-
ond Governor gave a large lot for Mr. Taylor's residence. On the
hospital lot a convenient dispensary has been built, and a small
chapel is in process of erection. There is as yet no hospital build-
ing. Small bamboo shanties or huts, covered with grass, have thus
far been made to serve the place of hospital wards.
A beginning has been made for a boys* school. It originated in
an evening class of small boys taught by Mrs. Peoples. After her
departure Mrs. Taylor and Miss Fleeson took charge of it. They
have some twenty pupils. The missionaries hope that, in the near
future, this beginning will grow into an industrial school for boys.
Evangelistic Work. — Direct evangelistic work in this mission is
of two classes : First, ministration to the five organized churches
by some one of the ordained missionaries under appointment of
Presbytery ; and second, touring.
Thus each ordained missionary takes some responsibility in direct
evangelistic work, whatever his special mission work may be, whether
teacher, translator, or evangelist.
The First Church of Cheung-Mai is the most important of these
churches, because it is the chief mission centre, the oldest organ-
ization, and to its roll are added all the names of the new Christians
who are in the immediate vicinity of either of the other organized
churches. This church received last year 136 adults and 82 chil-
dren. It has now an adult membership of 524, with all the organ-
ized forms of church work. The Sabbath-school enrolls 350
scholars.

The other churches in this district are : at Maa Dawk Dang, 10
miles northeast of Cheung-Mai ; Bethlehem, 10 miles southeast
from Cheung-Mai ; and First Church of Cheung-Saan, 150 miles
north of Cheung-Mai. These three churches have not had so
marked an increase as the Cheung-Mai church, yet Bethlehem has
had a delightful refreshing after a number of years of inactivity.
It more than doubled its membership, adding thirty-one new names
to its roll. The fifth church is the first church of Lakawn at the
new mission station.
Touring. — There was only one long missionary tour taken this year.
It was made by Mr. Dodd, to Pa-Row, Cheung-Hai, and Cheung-
Saan. These are the names of provinces lying to the north of Cheung-
Mai ; the last named is on the Cambodia River, well up on its course
toward China. On this long journey Mr. Dodd visited a number
of towns and villages where there are already little clusters of Chris-
tians, as well as many other places. He baptized twelve adults and
eight children. A number of shorter tours were made by all the
different members of the mission, including the ladies. The hearts
of the brethren were oftentimes delighted with the warm reception
they would receive from the natives and their desire to learn. At
one place, one of the missionaries and his helper taught interested
hearers through the night till it was time to put on the morning
rice-pot. More than thirty distant villages and towns were reached
by this means.
Translating. — Mrs. McGilvary, with the assistance of Mr. Dodd
and native teachers, has translated " The Acts," a first transla-
tion, and has revised other portions of the Scriptures previously
translated.
Printing. — No printing has as yet been done in the Laos lan-
guage. The need for a correct font of type is so strongly felt by
both the mission and the Board, that the Board has made a grant
of $1,000 for the undertaking, and the work is now going forward
under the supervision of Dr. Peoples.
The new Church Building. — The foundations of the first fine
church building among the Laos are now complete. It is expected
that the church will be finished this summer. Having no chapel
large enough to hold the congregations, they have been cpmpelled
to worship in the Girls' School building, much to the inconvenience
of the teachers and of the school.
Dr. McGilvary closes his report by saying : " We esteem it a
great privilege to be tke voice of the Church through whom,
and in Christ's name, to offer the Gospel to the Laos. We
adore His grace in blessing our humble labors. We thank the
Church for reinforcements. Some of us have labored till our
whitening locks remind us that our privilege will erelong have
to be resigned to others. We sometimes wonder if our great Pres-
byterian constituency remember that the privilege of actually send-
ing the Gospel to every creature will soon be resigned to another
generatioB, and whether they regard it as great a privilege to give
of their means as their missionaries do to act as their messenger.

LAOS— STATISTICS.
May God bless the cheerful giver. What gift is comparable to the
unspeakable gift of the Gospel of eternal life to a lost world ? "
Since this report was written cheering news is received from Mr.
Dodd. He had made an extended tour for a month to the north,
while an ordained helper had journeyed south. During their
month's work they had baptized nearly loo persons, of whom
about 60 were adults, and who were added to the rolls of the
church. Ours is the only mission to the Laos. A glorious work
unusually free from hindrances is before our Church, and one re-
markably rich in promise of an abundant harvest of souls.

The labor of our missionaries in Mexico, North and South, is largely
in the department of field work.
Early in the year, Rev. Dr. Greene reported a most interesting
work in Mizanila, a town of 5,000 inhabitants lying ninety miles north
of Jalapa. A few Indians from this place had strayed into the
church at Jalapa, where they heard a sermon and received a few
tracts, which they read on their way homeward. They reported what
they had heard and read to their neighbors, and as a result, 30 people,
fathers and mothers with their children, set out from Mizantla with the
purpose of attending religious services ninety miles away, in order to
see for themselves what they were like and to obtain books. Upon
examination fifteen of the number were baptized, and $25.00 worth of
Bibles and religious books were sold. Whatever may be the per-
manent results of this movement, it well illustrates the darkness and
torpor which have lain upon these outlying communities for so long a
time under the influence of Romanism. These people may be said to
have awakened out of a profound sleep. The truth was almost as
strange as if it had come as a special revelation direct from heaven.
Dr. Greene in the latter part of the year made an interesting tour
10

into the State of Guerrero. This is the historic ground of that violent
and blood J persecution which broke out at Acapulco fifteen years ago.
The year 1887 was signalized by still another outbreak, and one as-
sassination has occurred even during the last year, namely, that of Don
Tomas'^Espernosa, a worthy elder of Tetela del Rio. He was mur-
dered by a drunken man who had conceived a grudge against the min-
ister of the church who sought to reclaim him from his evil ways. This
sad blow, together with the death of the remaining elder and two of
his sons during the year, has reduced our congregation at Tetela del
Rio very seriously. The remaining members are administered to by
Sr. Zepeda, who lives forty-five miles away.
In making this tour Dr. Greene left Mexico City on the railroad
leading to Tlaltizapan, passing near the volcanoes of Iztaccihuatl and
Popocatapetl, and through the sugar-growing districts of Cuantla and
Yantepec in the State of Morelos. This road will find at length its
southern terminus at Acapulco, on the Pacific coast, and will open up
some of the richest cattle-raising and mineral districts in the Republic.
From Tlaltizapan Dr. Greene's method of travel was by the saddle.
A ride of many hours brought him to Los Arnates, where a cordial
welcome awaited him in a Christian family and in a little centre of be-
lievers. A ride of three hours further brought him to Tonalapa, where
an evening service was held in a private house. The experience of
the next two days is given in the following words :
"In the morning at five we are off for a long, tiresome climlxup
and over the mountains, through rugged fastnesses and along narrow
paths of slippery rock, in the intense heat of this now tropical clime,
until at twelve we reach Zapuapa, a picturesque hamlet of some 200
souls, where that evening and the next, congregations of 60 to 70
earnest worshippers assembled. Here is a school of 34 bright pupils
taught by one of the young men from our seminary at Tlalpam. We
examine these scholars in their various studies and are highly pleased
with their proficiency, especially in the Shorter Catechism and the
Catechism for Children. These brethren, out of their poverty, are
building a very solid and tasteful church edifice, 40 by 18 feet, which
they promise to have ready for dedication on my next visit. One of
them also sets apart his house, the best in the place, for the school
Leaving here Rev. Felix Gomez (who joined us at Los Arnates) to
hold services on the Sabbath, we start at 6 a.m. for a ride of ten
leagues, over the worst road we shall encounter, stop at Tcmascalapa
for a baptismal service and breakfast at 8, and at 4 p.m. arrived weary
and sore, at Ahuacuatitlan, on the summit of the Sierra Madre. Here,
in the very house where our good elder, Miguel Ciprian©, was murdered
for his faith, we hold a service at night, attended by the faithful few
who have passed through great tribulation, and our theme is ' the con-
ditions of acceptable prayer.*
" Here, also the mission has purchased, as a building site, a spot
baptized with bloody and on it the brethren, with our aid, will soon
complete a commodious church edifice at a total cost of about $250.
Against the outer wall will be erected a monument inscribed with the
names of our three martyred brethren. Funds for this purpose are

now being contributed by our various churches and will probably
reach the sum of jjioo. From here we pass on in the morning to
Teloloapam, distant one league. This has always been regarded as a
very fanatical place and practically closed against all evangelical work.
But our good minister, Felipe Reyes, a man of middle age, by his un-
doubted piety, prudence, and tact, has succeeded in winning the con-
fidence of not a few devoted Romanists, and in undeceiving them as
to the real spirit and tendency of our work. As a result a very eligible
house has been rented for our worship and notice has been given to tlie
authorities that to-morrow (24th) our first public service will be held.
We improve the interval in conversation with various persons who are
anxious to know the truth as viewed and preached by us. I send a
telegram to Governor Arce, to make sure that all necessary precau-
tions are taken to preserve peace, and at 1 1 a.m. on the following day
the doors of our provisional chapel are opened and more than sixty
persons enter, all of whom are quiet, respectful, and attentive while
they listen for the first time to our hymns, prayers^ and the reading
and preaching of God's word. My theme is * Search the Scriptures.' "
As an instance of the spirit of self-help which is being developed in
at least a part of the Mexican outstations, the following is of interest :
" As both horses and riders are somewhat in need of recuperation,
we rest here until Monday, holding nightly services and also a dedi-
catory service on Sabbath morning, at which the neat church building
erected wholly by the people themselves is solemnly set apart for
divine worship, my theme being Solomon's prayer at the dedication of
the temple. A great and good work is being done here by Brother
Gomez, who out of his scanty salary gave $60 toward the church
building, just one-half its entire cost. He is doing a most effective
preparatory work, aided by El Faro^ in the two adjacent villages of
Cocula and Coacoyula, whence various brethren come to join m our
services and where regular worship will soon be established."
Dr. Greene speaks of another congregation which under the care of
Lauro Adamo has doubled since his last visit. The services were
formerly held on the outskirts of the village, but the brethren them-
selves have recently bought a house in the centre of the town at a
cost of about $80, and here on the last evening of the year Dr.
Greene preached for the first time to an audience of 70 within doors
and about 25 without. At the last of the three services held at this
place the Lord's Supper was administered.
At Chilpancingo, the capital of Guerrero, the missionary was received
very cordially by Sr. Arce, the Governor of the Slate. He gave as-
surance that he is doing all in his power to secure the arrest and pun-
ishment of the murderer at Tetela, and he also stated that the principals
in the Ahuacuatitlan massacre some months ago are in prison, and
that they will either be shot or sent into exile. It is a matter of en-
couragement that at Chilpancingo, once a most fanatical place, Prot-
estants are being sought for by the Government to fill posts of special
honor and responsibility. The congregation has more than doubled
under the faithful care of Prisciliano Zavaleta. There is not room for
the people who would gladly attend services. Sr. Zavaleta has secured
Digitized by VjOOQIC
MEXICO, SOUTH. I47
the confidence even of the priest, who cannot deny the excellence of
his character and influence.
At Tuxpan Dr. Greene found the work in an encouraging condition.
The services during his stay were held under a booth formed of freshly-
cut branches of trees.
He was impressed as never before with the poverty of the peo-
ple, and with the lack of ordinary comforts under which the masses
suffer. Great numbers were suffering from chills and fever, some of
them being fatally ill, and no physicians were found except in a few
principal cities. Even quinine was a thing not to be found, though so
essential and efficacious. These poor Christians are struggling with
great difficulties, and are greatly in need of the sympathy and prayers
of God's people everywhere.
Rev. Hubert W. Brown returned to his home February 24th, after
a tour of twenty-six days in the State of Michoacan. Most of the time
was spent on horseback, and altogether the distance which he had
thus ridden was about 500 miles. Twenty- three diflferent outstations
were visited. In such tours the missionary is accompanied by an at-
tendant who acts partially as a guard. One of the most interesting classes
of people with whom we meet in Mexico are the natives of the mountain
State of Michoacan, mostly Indians pure or slightly mixed. Their
response to the truth of the Gospel is generally direct and cordial,
and a great and good work has been done among them by our native
preachers. There have been no great ingatherings of converts during
the year, but the growth throughout this field has been steady, and
Mr. Brown notes a positive advance as compared with last year. One
disturbing influence which the churches in this region have encoun-
tered is the fanatical lawlessness and irresponsibility which have been
engendered by the Plymouth Brethren, particularly by the late Mr.
Pasco, of England. The extravagant ideas of "freedom" in religi-
ous life which these men have taught to the half-educated natives,
have resulted in license and in the breaking down of that institutional
order which is observed in our Missions, and which certainly has the
warrant of the New Testament A young Mexican who some years
ago attempted to assassinate Rev. Daniel Rodriquez, but who after-
ward was converted by his conciliatory methods, has been swept away
by these delusions, and has accomplished much harm among the un-
stable and the wayward.
In several places the membership of the churches had been seri-
ously diminished by removals, but it was found that those who had
thus removed had carried with them the Gospel, and that it had be-
come a leaven in places which might not otherwise have been reached.
Though the report of communicants may be reduced, they are not
lost, but are extending the truth.
The following sketches are given in the words of Mr. Brown's report :
'' In Aguacate, I was accorded the same cordial welcome as of yore
by the brothers Antonio and Guadalupe Vaca, who own the ranch.
They have been for a year or more building a much larger house, and
the best and largest room has been set apart for church services and
will soon be ready for dedication. It is their desire to secure all the
cooperation they can to tastefully furnish the hall."

** We reached Patanibaro on February 5th, the Mexican Constitution
day. The young men of the family of Don Jose Maria Lopez, with
whom we stopped, determined to celebrate the occasion in a suitable
manner. A hilltop overlooking the ranch was selected, a tribune of
stones and moss was raised, and the trees were tastefully hung with
festoons, flags, and lanterns, and over all floated the national banner.
The music was supplied by a society, called * Benito Juarez,* which
Mr. Palomino had organized for musical and literary improvement.
It was a hard climb to the summit, but once there the view of valleys
and mountains was superb. Messrs. Sanchez, Palomino, and Bianchi
made speeches and then I was called upon. I used the opportunity to
assure my audience that all true Americans were the friends of Mexi-
co. About two hundred were present. The feasting that followed
was of an orderly character, with no drinking or gaming, a notable
contrast to feasts under Romish auspices. The gathering showed the
growing interest of the country folk in the. constitution and republican
institutions, and was a plain and emphatic refutation of the oft-repeated
charge that our Protestant converts are traitors and devoid of patriot-
ism. In the evening many gathered for service and the Lord's Supper."
The poverty and simplicity of life which prevail among these moun-
taineers, as well as the lack of ambition and thrift, are well set forth
in the following brief passage :
" I never visit these two points without being struck with the cheer-
less, comfortless appearance of the houses, dark, dismal, with many
cracks through which the wind whistles, and the only furniture a rude,
hard bed, a rickety table and an equally unsteady bench. The ranch-
ero might have a nice home, if he only cared to. It is a great prob-
lem how to awaken in this people a desire for the comforts and civil-
izing influences of life."
Jungapeo has for a long time been under the care of Rev. Daniel
Rodriquez, one of our most faithful native ministers. He has suflered
for years with great diflSculty in his eyes, and once came to New York
for the purpose of securing relief by surgical operation, in which, how-
ever, he was disappointed. Mr. Brown speaks of the field as follows :
" The next centre visited was Jungapeo, where I held four services
and on the Sabbath administered the Lord's Supper. The tasteful
chapel erected there in the time of Don Rafael Rodriguez is still in
good repair, and the congregation is evidently proud and careful of
what they know to be one of the prettiest Protestant churches in all
Mexico. The congregation appeared to be in a prosperous condition,
and Sunday afternoon in were present at the communion service.
Don Alvino Rodriguez, who, at the time his father died, was a student
in the Seminary and obliged to leave to take charge of his affairs, has
at last decided to devote himself entirely to the work, and during the
year has studied and preached under the direction of his pastor, Rev.
Leopoldo Diaz."
Over against these encouraging facts, however, are some dark shad-
ows. The little congregations at Sauces, Colmena, and Guacimas
have become well-nigh extinct through bitter persecution, together
with the death of some of the leading men and the removal of others
Digitized by VjOOQIC
MEXICO, SOUTH. I49
to other ranches. The life of a church on a ranch, even though hun-
dreds of peasants may be employed, is always precarious, as the labor-
ers are removed from one ranch to another. This dark picture is re-
lieved by the fact that many of those who were formerly enrolled at
these stations are now found in another not far away, so that the few
who remain can attend services at the new station. Mr. Brown says
of a visit to the latter : " The cordiality of our welcome in Tepehuajes
is shown by the fact that the family sent all the way to Jungapeo to
buy chocolate, bread, meat, and all that they thought we would like to
have, and then borrowed dishes, one here and one there, from their
neighbors. The man in whose house the service is held was converted
through the reading of our tracts, and formerly when services were
held only in Tetengeo, several leagues away over a steep mountain
trail, he and all his family, men, women, and children, were accus-
tomed to attend."
Mention is made of another ranch, Salitre, formerly owned by Don
Luis Arroya, who before his death some years ago offered ground for
a church if the Mission could erect one. His widow and his son are
still warm friends of the mission cause, and extend a most cordial wel-
come when either a missionary or a native preacher pays a visit to their
community.
Superstition is not dead, nor the mendacity of the priesthood ex-
tinct. The house of one of our zealous converts caught fire a short
lime ago and nearly all the furniture was burned, whereupon the local
priest declared that it was a signal punishment from heaven for their
having had in the house that " viperous sheet El Faro" Yet not-
withstanding this experience the people of that region have asked for
a school and have promised from 25 to 50 pupils.
Mr. Brown's report ends with a tribute to Rev. Mr. Rodriguez, who
in spite of a severe illness from which he has only partially recovered,
and hi^ almost total blindness, has succeeded in converting a part of
the mission property in Zitacuaro into a very neat audience-room,
capable of seating 150 persons. At the same time, Mr. Rodriquez
has so revived the people spiritually that the hall is already too small.
Mr. Brown says : " With a further outlay of $200 or $300, the room
could be enlarged to nearly twice its present capacity." The results
of his tour, which was a laborious and fatiguing one, were on the whole
encouraging.

Thf Annua/ Afission Conference. — The Sixth Annual Conference of
the Mexico Mission met at Saltillo, January 2 2d, and there was a
good attendance of the missionaries. Some important items of busi-
ness were transacted which well show the progress of the work. A
report was given of a Union hymn-book which was in progress of
preparation by a committee chosen from the various Protestant mis-
sions. About 170 hymns were reported as having been adopted,
most of them accompanied with tunes. This movement may be
hailed with satisfaction as showing, first, the unity of spirit among the
missions, and second, the disposition to economize the force and ex-
penditures. One of the evils of division between the different de-
nominations in conducting mission work, has been the heavy expense
which each society must undertake in conducting similar lines of work.
If hymn-books and certain classes of publications, institutions of learn-
ing, etc., can be placed upon a union basis, it is hoped that they will
prove bonds of unity, and will enable the societies to accomplish a far
greater aggregate of missionary work.
The report refers to a similar movement which has often been dis-
cussed, but which has made but little progress, toward the establish-
ment of a Union College. This is a more formidable and difficult un-
dertaking, but with an earnest and united spirit on the part of the mis-
sionaries, it may be found practicable. If so, it is certainly desirable.
Our missionaries are calling loudly for the opening of such a col-
lege, to be placed upon a union basis, all the associated missions
contributing to its support. This subject has been before the Mexican
Evangelical Alliance for the last two or three years, and although little
progress has been made except in the development of general inter-
est, the feeling is constantly increasing that such a department of mis-
sion work is well-nigh indispensable.
The Press, — A report was given of the work of the press of the
Presbyterian Mission, which was on the whole satisfactory. Over
13,000,000 pages had been printed during the year, including tracts,
hymns, and the bi-weekly religious paper El Faro, It is desirable
to greatly increase, if possible, the self-support of these various
branches of publication. The influence of the press thus far has
proved most eflfective in conducting mission work, and all the differ-
ent societies except one are publishing religious papers for general
circulation. New accommodations for the press have been secured.
Help on the Field, — A special note is made of the fact that in re-
pairing and enlarging the property purchased a year ago for the girls*
boarding-school at Saltillo, the foreign residents in the place have
mainly contributed to the building of a chapel within the mission
premises. Two hundred dollars were contributed by Rodger Hayne,
Esq., a gentleman of St. Louis, Mo., and a member of the Episcopal
Church.
Dr. Greene reported upon the increased effort of churches in the
southern part of Mexico to build their own churches, or to contribute
a large part of the funds therefor.
The Theological Seminary, — Rev. H. C. Thomson, of the Theological
Seminary at Tlalpam, reports an average attendance of fifteen students
Digitized by VjOOQIC
MEXICO. 151
during the year. The young men are of fair capacity, and have been
studious and diligent. The spiritual atmosphere of the institution
has been better than for some years past Services have been held
by the students at five different places during the year. The new
plan of alternate study and work has been inaugurated for the older
and more advanced students, with the belief that it will combine a
very useful practical element with the technical and general education
which they are receiving. The class who have this year been engaged
in field work will go back to the Seminary next year, and it will soon
be possible to estimate the practical results of this experiment. An
earnest hope, coupled with more or less fear, is expressed that the
funds granted for the institution will not be so curtailed as to necessi-
tate the turning away of any promising young men who apply for
admission to the Seminary.
The labors of Mr. Thomson have been in part devoted to the
production of a new Spanish version of the Bible in connection with
Rev. H. B. Pratt, Agent of the Bible Society, and with representatives
of other Mission Societies. It is hoped that by the end of this year
one-half of the Old Testament will have been revised
T?u Girl^ Boarding-Schools, — One of the causes of mutual con-
gratulation at the Mission meeting was the fact that the two boarding-
schools, one at Mexico City and the other at Saltillo, had both been
enlarged and put in working order during the year. In the City of
Mexico a large addition, costing something over $7,000, had been
made, and the school had been reopened on the first Monday in
August, at which time 40 boarders and 30 day pupils were received.
The average attendance has been 37 boarders and 25 day pupils.
Great progress has been manifested. Three of the girls are about to
graduate. Good habits are reported on the part of the girls in doing
all their own work and dispensing entirely with servants. They keep
their rooms clean and do their own sewing, washing, and ironing, and all
other work. Only one younger child has been assisted in this respect,
and in this case the service was paid for by her parents. Over 200
blanks were prepared and issued calling on parents to contribute
toward the expense of the institution, and nearly all responded.
Scarcely any expense has been incurred in paying the travelling ex-
penses of pupils to and from the school.
The mission is in receipt of constant applications for admission to
the girls' school in Mexico City, and the missionaries find in their trips
that the reputation of the school is very high among converts and those
who are merely friendly to the cause. A number of girls educated in
the Normal School have been sent out as teachers, and with the most
satisfactory results. In many cases comparisons have been made be-
tween their instruction and that imparted in the Government schools,
and to their advantage. Under the wise management of Miss Bart-
lett, ably seconded by Miss De Baun, the standard of the school has
been steadily raised.
Miss Wheeler, of Saltillo, reported that the building for the Normal
School in Saltillo was nearly completed. The removal from Monte-
rey was effected May 20, 1889. IThe school desks were moved, but

the remainder of the furniture had to be sold. Miss Wheeler ren-
dered assistance in the Mexico City school from August to December.
The building at Saitillo should accommodate forty-five pupils. Miss
Mabel Elliott, after an absence on account of ill-health, has resunied
her work. There is every prospect of opening with the full number,
half of whom will be day pupils from Saitillo and the remainder board-
ers from abroad.
Day-schools. — There are, in all, 26 day-schools in the Southern field,
four of which are in Mexico City, with a total enrollment of 931 pu-
pils of both sexes. These schools are doing a good work among the
poor children of the capital, while in the smaller towns and country
districts they often afford the only chance for an education. The mis-
sionaries on their trips notice at once the beneficent influence of these
schools, and are often told by parents, " We cannot raad ; we never
had such advantages ; but our children are learning and can read us
the Bible and your hymns and tracts."
Zacatecas.
Rev. T. F. Wallace has continued his work in the city and in the
surrounding country stations. Only partial reports have been re-
ceived. Dr. G. W. Prevost and family, always intensely interested in
the mission from the beginning, have continued to aid the work in
many ways.
Mr. Wallace reports some interesting incidents in his work among
the outstations of the Zacatecas field. Speaking of a visit to the Ha-
cienda El Carro, Mr. Wallace says :
" Our good friend Francisco Ezparza, though not a member of the
church at this place, has been for a year raising little by little the
tumbled-down walls of an old house of his so as to make a hall and
give it to our people as a place of worship. It was lacking a roof
when I was there, but this has since been supplied. The owners of
a hacienda or ranch have it in their power to prevent the repairs of
an old building or the erection of a new one if they desire, but as
Senor Ezparza is an old resident and has a good doal of influence he
was allowed to transform the old building, which he would not have
been allowed to do had the owners of the site any idea that he
intended it for Protestant worship. This same man has given our
preacher a house to live in for more than two years free of rent. Thfe
little church grows slowly, which is encouraging considering the.
obstacles placed in its way."
The same report gives an interesting account of services held in
very small adobe huts, where the floor has to be utilized wilhout
chairs for seating the people, and where a bed is used as a seat by the
women, while the children and babies are huddled on the same bed
behind their mothers. There are many discouragements, and in some
of the older fields, like Jerez and Ville de Cos, the work is not so
encouraging as it has been in years past
The report of the Zacatecas field is on the whole encouraging.
Besides the church in the city there are 17 outstations. The total
number of communicants reported is 1,090, and 100 have been added

during the year. There is a clear gain over all loss by death or other-
wise of 59. The number of pupils reported in Sabbath- schools is
597, and in day-schools 61. The total amount of contributions is
given at $1,975. Two native pastors are reported, nine licentiates,
four teachers, and one Bible-woman.
San Luis Potosu
The work of Rev. Mr. Beall and his helpers has been prospered,
as the statistics show.
The degree of favor with which the Gospel is received from year
to year in Mexico depends very largely upon the spirit and temper of
the local authorities. Mr. Beall, in describing a short tour which he
made with Rev. H. Forcada into the mountainous region lying south
of San Luis Potosi, mentions a place in which one year ago Mr.
Forcada was repulsed, only two hours being given him, weary as he
. was, in which to leave the town. '* We were at first in some doubt,"
he says, *' as to the reception that awaited us, but were soon assured
of a hearty welcome. The chief in authority was a subscriber to El
FarOy and we lodged three days in his house. Instead of being told
to leave the town the public school building was placed at our disposal.
Newly found friends furnished lamps and candles, and a congregation
of 185 persons listened to three sermons or talks, and each person
carried away a supply of tracts. Such a visit and such a work cannot
be figured in statistical reports, and it may be that the Church at large
will never know the results of such meetings, though they are not
uncommon in missionary experience. But the Great Head of the
Church keeps a record, and He knows what harvests such seeds will
produce, and after all it is for Christ we are working."
The grace which seems to be given to these simple people in their
trials as well as in their prosperity seems to be all-sufficient. Mr.
Beall mentions a poor man who after a lingering illness had died of a
very painful disease, but his resignation was marked and his faith tri-
umphant. At each communion during the year members have been
received ; " the last one," says the report, " was of peculiar interest
and impressiveness. Four children who had been baptized in infancy
were received into full communion together with several others on
profession and baptism." During the year 35 have been added to the
San Luis church.
Toward the close of the year Mr. and Mrs. Beall were compelled
to seek leave of absence for six months on account of the severe ill-
ness of their child.
The following are the statistics of the work embraced in the San
I^uis Potosi field :
Ordained native, i ; licentiates, 3 ; native teachers, 6 ; churches, 6 ;
communicants, 172 ; added during the year, 54 ; day-schools, 3 ; boys

170; contributions, $115.
SaltilU.
Rev. Mr. Boyce sends a report of the Saltillo field in which light

and shade are blended in about equal proportions. First of all, it is
Ycry apparent that Roman Catholic induence is steadily recovering
the ground lost by the political revolution which occurred twenty-five
years ago, and which dealt such heavy blows at the Jesuitical Order,
the hoarded church property, and the flaunted presence and prestige
of the hierarchy. The priesthood is making itself felt more and more
in certain portions of the Republic in political ways, and in the Sal-
tillo field some flagrant outrages have recently emphasized this fact ;
among other things, a most exorbitant tax* has been levied by the local
authorities upon all missionaries and native preachers, in the latter
case amounting almost, if not quite, to the full amount of the salary
received. This has been done with the avowed purpose of " driving
them out." The Papacy never tires; year after year, generation after
generation, it works on and forces its way like the tides of the sea.
It is unscrupulous beyond expression, bitter and cruel, resorting to
persecution, and even to bloodshed when necessary, as has been shown
in so many instances in Mexico within the last twenty years. Over
against this, however, it is believed that the sentiment of the most
respectable citizens, not bound hand and foot by the priesthood, is
more and more favorable to the work of Protestant missions. Observ-
ing men cannot fail to see the improvement made in the moral char-
acter of the people, — ^their greater truthfulness and moral purity, and
they hail with satisfaction the general elevation of the people who are
brought under Protestant influence. Even if no converts are gained
to the Protestant churches, the leaven which is infused into the gen-
eral fabric of society is worth all the outlay that has been made. It
is impossible for the Mexican priesthood to sink into the shameless
corruptions of thirty years ago so long as they are under the surveil-
lance and the direct and condemnatory influence of Protestant mis-
sions, nor is it possible for them to so hoodwink and blind the minds
of the people. In some cases, doubtless, political managers and truck-
ling officials will be influenced by their schemes, and persecutions may
be expected from time to time as in the past, but the work goes on.
Mexico rises up out of the- darkness and corruption which for three
centuries has lain like a pall of death upon her institutions and upon
all society, and her regeneration, though gradual, is sure.
Mr. Boyce says : " All over the Republic the priests are making the
authorities, from the highest to the lowest, feel and acknowledge their
power and influence. Abuses are to-day tolerated which a few years
ago would have been promptly corrected. Overt acts on the part of
the priesthood are passed by unnoticed which in better days would
have been followed with swift punishment. Assured of this immunity,
the priests have been enabled to press an aggressive work against us
as well as to hold themselves ever on the defensive against our work.
The hollow display and pomp of their worship, aided by all the wiles
of Jesuitic subtlety, have been able to catch the eye and infatuate
anew the superstitious and ignorant hearts of multitudes who had for
long years almost cut loose fi-om Rome. This prevailing and powerful
• This has recently been greaUj reduced, as the result of higher appeal.

influence of the priesthood is felt more deeply in the country districts
than in the large cities."
The growth of the churches in the State of Coahuila, in which Sal-
tillo is situated, has been slow, the increase not having quite equalled
that of former years ; still, there has been an advance.
During a part of the year Mr. Boyce has suffered severely from ill-
health, at the same time that he has been heavily burdened with the
repairs of a building purchased for the use of the girls* boarding-school
formerly at Monterey. Much responsibility has also devolved upon
him in the sale of the Monterey property. The school is now fully
re-established in its new quarters. The property at Sal tillo is well
adapted to the purpose, and Miss Jennie Wheeler and Miss Mabel
Elliott have just reopened the school. There has been a long cessa-
tion of direct labor in this institution, though the teachers have been
engaged, so far as health would permit, in the study of the language,
at the same time rendering assistance in various ways. Miss Wheeler
was for several months in Mexico City assisting Miss Bartlett until
Miss Ella DeBaun, newly appointed, should reach her field. Miss
Elliott was compelled during the year to spend some months on leave
of absence on account of ill-health. She has now returned in re-
newed health and in strong hope of being able to endure the labors of
her position. Just as the year closes Mr. Boyce, who has suffered
severely from chills and fever, has been compelled to seek a leave of
absence in order to recover from the depressing effects of his disease.
It is a matter of hope and prayer that he may in due time be re-
stored to his manifold work. The field work in certain portions of
Mexico involves considerable exposure to malarial influence, and it is
only by using precaution and care that the mbsionary can avoid seri-
ous depression of health.
Mr. Boyce reports, including ten outstations, a total membership of
580. Thirty-eight have been added during the year, being a net gain
of 34. The number of pupils in Sabbath-schools is 363, and in day-
schools, of which there are nine, 194. During the year $645 have been
contributed. Seven licentiates and eight native teachers are reported.
San Miguel del MezquUal.
Rev. D. J. Stewart reports his work at this place as having pro-
gressed slowly. He is surrounded with discouragements. The people
are fanatical and extremely ignorant, and the priesthood, to say the
least, are corrupt. Speaking of a visit to a town called Reyes, for-
merly a centre of banditti, he reports that he found an entrance mainly
because the priests so seldom visit the place — they never do so unless
assured that it will pay financially. " Recently," says Mr. Stewart,
" the people were suffering great loss by the death of their oxen, which
were dying of an epizootic disease. The people asked the priest to
disinfect the community, which he did for a consideration of $3.00,
the service being rendered by the recitation of certain Latin incan-
tations. Word having gone out to other mountain villages that the
priest was attempting to drive away the evil spirit of disease, many
others sought to secure a participation in this hoped-for relief, but the

priest refused to do anything for them until $4 should be raised, and as
they were too poor to make up this sum, he passed on. As his im-
posture in Reyes amounted to nothing, the people lost £a.ith in the
priest and in his incantations. Such are the pictures of the Papacy in
Mexico to-day." Mr. Stewart reports great poverty among the peaple,
and expresses a strong desire for the small amount of $70 or $80,
with which, added to the gifts of the people, to provide a place of
worship.
During the year six persons have been added to the San Miguel
church on profession of faith, and one person has been reinstated.
One of the baptized is a young man from a hacienda 54 miles away.
He is zealous in the cause and gives good promise of being useful.

General Progress,
The influence of the Protestant mission work in Mexico is more
and more felt by the people at large. El Tempo^ one of the most im-
portant daily papers published in Mexico City, said some time since,
" The Yankees are exerting a notable influence on our language, our
commerce, and our religion." A Mexican in a published comment
upon this admission says :
" Thank God that the North Americans who are Christ's servants
have brought us the holy and blessed religion of Jesus Christ, the only
one which can make truly happy our beloved country, Mexico, which
for so many centuries has been the victim of the rapacity and iniqui-
tous intrigues of the Catholic Jesuits. So at last the papistical writers
sing their recantation since now they declare the contrary of what they
have preached and written : * That Protestantism was a corpse.' Now
they admit that the Protestant religion possesses life and makes its in-
fluence felt in the Mexican Republic to such a degree that thousands
are leaving the idolatrous church of the popes."
The following minute adopted by the members of the Mexican
churches in the City of Mexico during the Week of Prayer, shows the
gratitude which is felt by pastors and people for the encouragement
and assistance which have been rendered to them by Christian people
in the United States :
"When the work of missions was presented during the Week of
Prayer, we agreed unanimously to send a vote of thanks to the various
Digitized by VjOOQIC
MEXICO, NORTH. 157
missionary societies by whom we are employed, for the money so gen-
erously expended for the evangelization of Mexico, and for the co-
operation of our beloved brethren, the missionaries. Yes, dear breth-
ren, we have always felt the deepest and liveliest gratitude for what
you have done in Mexico, building churches, sustaining schools and
seminaries, establishing presses, and all with the sole purpose of bring-
ing us the joy and peace which you experience through faith and love
toward Christ our only Saviour. We are glad to make this public ac-
knowledgment before the whole world ; and yet at the same time we
feel that as yet we have hardly begun this great work, and we there-
fore appeal to you to continue your efforts until all the beautiful land
of Mexico belongs to Christ, the King of glory."
There continues to be a cordial spirit of harmony and co-operation
among the various Protestant missions.
The Protestant missions in the Mexican Republic, those working
together since the first Evangelical Missionary Assembly, which was
held in 1888, are the Quakers; Methodists, North and South; Bap-
tists, North and South ; Presbyterians, North and South ; Associate
Refomi, and Cumberland and the Congregationalists. Each of these
missions has its own paper, published bi-monthly, with the exception of
the Southern Methodist, which is issued weekly, and all but one are
illustrated. The Presbyterian paper, El Faro, has carried on an inter-
esting discussion during the past year with La VozdeMexico, the organ
of the Archbishop.
At the missionary assembly of 1888, the women of the several mis-
sions organized a temperance society, and began at once to bring the
subject before the community, and especially before the Protestant
churches. To the majority of our converts the question was new and
stranf e, but good results are already visible in many of our churches.
Pulque ib produced in certain districts in much greater quantities than
in others, and the railroads by their freight facilities open a much
wider market for its consumption ; indeed, many of the passenger
trains have a pulque car attached, in which the huge hogsheads of this
intoxicant are carried to all the principal towns and cities. This has
notably increased drunkenness and petty crimes in many districts, and
added to the inebriety caused by the use of strong distilled liquors,
presents a sad picture. During the past year the secular papers hare
done good service in calling attention to the evil, and to a great de-
gree advocating temperance measures.
Most of the missions publish Sabbath-school lesson-papers similar
to those used at home. The Presbyterian Question-book is published
in Spanish in monthly portions by missionaries of the Board, and these
are used by the Presbyterian and Congregational missions. Rev. Mr.
Morales uses in his church of Divino Salvador, illustrated lesson-
charts with much effect, and during the week he employs them also in
the different day-schools.
Mr. Brown reports having attended the examinations in some of the
day.schools, and as having found that a very satisfactory work was be-
ing carried on. In the States of Tobasco, Michoacan, Hidalgo, and
Guerrero (he people are beginning to take an interest and pride in the

schools and to show an increasing desire for a better education. At
an examination in one town in Hidalgo, nearly the whole population,
not a large one, was present In many places the people pay a part
of the teacher's salary.
Encoura^ng progress is reported in the matter of self-help, contri-
butions bemg made toward the day-schools and the support of the
churches, also for the furnishing of seats, lights, etc. In many places
societies of young people have been organized to raise funds to help
on the work. Mr. Morales has in his congregation a society of chil-
dren known as Christ's Jewels, whose membership has increased to
eighty. These children contributed during the year J22, a large sum
considering the great poverty of the people.
At the last meeting of the Presbytery of Mexico, the question of
organizing a Mexican Home Mission Board was agitated, and though
conclusions have not been reached, the leaven of such an idea is work-
ing in the minds and hearts of the people, and surely no better and
more auspicious step could be taken. The very life of the Mexican
Church involves the necessity of an aggressive and self- propagating
element.

The Waldenses
A very responsible work is laid upon the Waldensian Church, the aim
of which is to grasp from the hands of Rome the fair land of Italy with
its 30,000,000 of souls, and give to them a pure gospel. Great results
have already been achieved. There is a college and theological
school, and an advanced school for girls, while scattered over the king-
dom are a number of primary schools. There are 44 churches with
38 pastors, 8 evangelists, 67 evangelical teachers, besides colporteurs
and Bible-readers. But far transcending all visible results is the leaven
of its influence in the promulgation of freedom of thought, and in the
emancipation of the people from sacerdotal tyranny and superstition.
The i6lh of August last was celebrated by the Waldensian Church
of Italy as the two hundredth anniversary of the return of the exiled
Vaudois to their homes in the Alpine valleys of Piedmont, from which
they had been driven by the persecution of Rome. In the dead of
night, August 16, 1689, the exiles, whose number had been reduced
to less than a thousand, under the leadership of their pastor, Henri
Arnaud, embarked in small boats at Nions, with the purpose of land-
ing on the hostile French shore, and thence forcing their way through
the wild passes of Savoy and over the Cottian Alps. After untold
hardship they reached at last the mountains overlooking the valleys
of their birth, only to find their path obstructed by an Italian army of
2,000 men, sent out by the Duke of Turin. Though badly armed,
the heroic band, some of whom had never handled a musket before,
attacked and defeated the Italian army, leaving 600 of the latter
dead upon the field. Filled with chagrin by this signal defeat, the
Romanists sent out another army of 20,000 men under the Marquis
de Catinat. It is impossible to describe the terrible sufferings to
which the patriots were exposed on those bleak Alpine mountains
during the dreary months of the following winter and spring. On
May 1, 1690, occurred the heroic storming of the Balsi by the Vaudois,
ending in a second complete defeat of their enemies ; but on the 14th
of the same month, in a second attack upon the same fortress, the
patriots were disastrously defeated and scattered over the mountains.
For months the unequal struggle continued, until at length it seemed
as though the cause of Protestantism in Italy was forever lost. At
this crisis, however, help came from an unexpected source. DifBcul-
lies arose between the courts of Versailles and Turin, knd war was
declared by the latter. The Duke of Turin, seeing it was useless
to waste his energies upon a band of mountaineers who had baffled

and in several cases defeated the best soldiery of France and Italy,
forgave the Waldenses and established them in their homes, in return
for which numbers of them enlisted in his service. * It was in this un-
looked-for way that peace came to the valleys of Piedmont, and that
the cause of Protestant Christianity, the fate of which had so long
trembled in the balance, became firmly established.

The Evangelical Churches of France,
The annual report of the Evangelical Society of France for the
year closing December, 1889, records a large number of very encourag-
ing incidents which have occurred in the experience of the agents of
the Society in the various parts of France. While there is on the
other side much apathy and discouragement, while no large movements
are reported in the direction of a more evangelical faith and life, here
and there throughout the different provinces there are tokens of an
earnest spirit of inquiry, and a leaven of discontent with the deadness
and formality of the Roman Catholic faith and teaching. Again and
again these men, when permitted to address meetings attended by
Romanists, have heard with satisfaction their expressions of surprise
that this Gospel preaching should be so different from anything that
they had ever heard from other sources, though the two religions were
professedly the same. Hundreds are thus reached who do not hesitate
to make known the fact that they really had never heard the Gospel
in its legitimate presentation before. The difficulty which appears on
the other hand is the lack of co-operation and organization — here and
there is an individual or a family, here and there a little group holding
up the torch of the truth in the midst of surrounding darkness.
**This religion," said one, "is much better than ours, and I would go
over to Protestantism were I not so old." "I am sure I will be
excommunicated," said an inn-keeper, *' but that does not matter, I
have heard such good things." *' Come and see us again," says many
a hearer. One woman is reported as having walked twenty miles to
receive the Lord's Supper, but such believers are too widely scattered
and are surrounded by thousands of Romanists, and even in Protestant
churches there is often great apathy, induced probably by more or less
rationalistic influence. While Christians in Atnerica contribute of
their means to keep alive these sparks from off the true altar, there is
need thait their prayers ascend to God for the influence of the Holy

Spirit, who is omnipotent and who can make dry bones even rise up
into life.
Rev. L. J. Bertrand, of Paris, has been engaged during a part of
the year in representing in this country the Central Society of the Re-
formed Church of France, the Evangelization Society of the Free
Church, and the Society for Training Evangelists, and the Board has
consented to receive and transmit funds which the churches have con-
tributed for these Societies. There are embraced within this union of mis-
sionary operations between six and seven hundred churches * and Sun-
day-schools, with many Young Men's Christian Associations. They have
two preparatory training-schools and two theological seminaries, in one
of which there are seventy-eight students. They support a Bible and
Tract Society, and, although their total number of communicants is
only about three-quarters of a million, the benevolences of their
churches, independent of current expenses, amount to not less than
a million of francs. This is a fact which ought to remove all the
doubts of those who may have the impression that the poor churches
of France are willing to live upon the charity of their brethren in other
lands. All France is now open to evangelistic effort, and these churches
are struggling to withstand the power of Rome and to present the
truth of God in its purity. They are worthy of help.
Belgium. — A Missionary Church.
Rev. Kennedy Anet, of Brussels, has sent us the following instruct-
ive facts :
" At the time of the Reformation, that part of the Netherlands now
called Belgium was one of the countries of Europe where the light ot
the Gospel shone with the greatest brightness. If this glorious period
of Belgian history is almost forgotten, it is because the Protestants
were swept away by the Spanish Inquisition ; thousands were execu-
ted, burned alive, or put to the sword by Philip the Second's soldiers,
whilst others had to seek a refuge in foreign lands.
** During more than two hundred years darkness reigned supreme in
this land. At the beginning of the century there were only a few Prot-
estants scattered here and there, but within the last fifty years the
country which had been steeped in the blood of martyrs, has been
yielding a rich harvest, and its whitening fields are of still greater
promise for the future.
" This work has been principally accomplished by the Evangelical
Society founded in 1837. In 1848 it took the title of 'The Christian
Missionary Church of Belgium.' At first it encountered many difficul-
ties. In some places violent opposition, ill-treatment, and persecution
in different forms impeded the work, while in others the pastors found
it impossible to meet the demands for preaching and teaching, so
gladly was the Gospel received.
'' It is said that in Belgium there are 30,000 men toiling day and
night in the coal mines. This represents a large population employed
* Only about 400 cbiuches are stricUy evangelical.

either in the pits or in the factories that have sprung up near these
rich supplies of fuel. It is among this people, for the most part
wretchedly poor and either grossly superstitious or openly atheistic —
often sunk to the lowest of immorality — that our Church is at work.
The glorious promises of the Gos]>el message and the untold joy it
imparts find ready access to the hearts of these poor toilers, in whom
long hours of labor (generally from 12 to 16), bad pay, and rough
treatment produce a great yearning for something better to hope for.
It is in the dark galleries of the pit, in the workshops, and in the fac-
tories that the best spiritual work is being done. It is there that our
converts have abundant opportunities of showing their colors. For-
merly they were known for cock-fighting, drinking, and swearing; now
their employers recognize that they have become sober and gentle.
They wonder at the change ; and the light that has been made to
shine before men is reflected in the hearts of others.
" Genval, near the field of Waterloo, was the first station where the
new Society sent an agent. It has now 27 organized churches and 59
preaching stations. It works in about 80 other localities, where the
Gospel is preached occasionally. Two hundred other localities are
visited by its colporteurs. It has 38 pastors, evangelists or coli>or-
teurs, and Bible-readers and more than 7,000 church members (ip-
cluding children), of whom, only 400 are Protestants by origin."
In addition to receiving and forwarding special contributions to tht
work in Papal Europe, the Board has distributed amounts in aid to the
various Continental Churches as follows :
Evangelical Society of Brussels $500.00
Evangelical Society of Geneva 500.00
The Waldenses 1,000.00

Western Persia Mission.
In general it may be said of Persia that an awakening has begun.
The third visit of the Shah to Europe has taken place, and now he is
showing himself the foremost man in Persia in desiring reforms and
progress. Concessions and proclamations announce the dawn of a
new era. Banks have been opened in the capital at Tabriz. The
Kamn River is being made a highway of commerce from the south
into the heart of the country. Railways are projected, mines and
manufactories are opened, and highways are built. There are more
signs of progress in the two years past than in a thousand years be-
fore. These signs of the times render certain the incoming of English
and American capital and enterprise. They also render our mission
stations strategic points for the great campaign of evangelization on
the broad field of Western Asia. Nearly twenty degrees of longitude
must be crossed before our missions in Persia can clasp hands with
the China missions. We must ever have an eye on this great field

and estimate the work of the year, not only as so much done, but as
far more a preparation for the great work yet to do. The day of
opportunity is at hand.
The region to be evangelized by this mission covers a large part of
ancient Assyria or Media, twice the area of the State of Ohio, and
indirectly a much larger region in the Caucasus and beyond under
Russian dominion. The key of the position is found in the nominal
Christians, Nestorians, or Old Syrians, and Armenians. These old
churches have been preserved as the buried seed that is to spring up
under the power of the pure Gospel, and thus to form the base for
the wider work for Jews and Moslems. Among the Syriac-speaking
Christians there are two stations, Oroomiah and Tiary, and among
the Armenians Tabriz and Salmas.
The year past has seen the return of several missionaries who were
on furlough, Rev. and Mrs. J. N.Wright, and Dr. and Mrs. J. P. Cochran.
Mrs. D. P. Cochran and Miss HoUiday returned in the autumn after a
furlough in the United States, and Rev. Dr. and Mrs. Shedd in the
spring. Of those in the field a year ago Dr. and Mrs. Holmes, of
Tabriz, greatly to the regret of his Royal Highness the heir-apparent
of Persia and of the mission, have been obliged to leave because of
the serious illness of the latter. For the same reason Miss Roberts,
of Salmas, has come to America. Miss Morgan is unable yet to re-
turn. Miss Dale has been transferred from Tabriz to Teheran. It is
expected that the mission will be reinforced by a missionary for Tabriz
and two single ladies for Oroomiah as soon as they can be sent. A
lay missionary for the industrial work at Oroomiah it is hoped will soon
be appointed.
Oroomiah Station,
There are several departments here to be reported. In general the
year has been filled with anxieties as well as encouragements. At
the opening of the year there were within the church divisions that
happily have been healed. Without was the active and aggressive
opposition to our mission by the English Ritualists. These causes
have operated against spiritual results, and the number of additions to
the churches is the smallest reported for many years. •
It is a singular and painful fact that notwithstanding this gain there
is actual loss in the total number of genuine Christians. A new and
more rigid rule has been enforced in the church. The rolls have
been purged. Many have been led astray by the Ritualistic party,
and the loose morals taught by their new teachers in regard to Sabbath
observance, wine-drinking, and other things.
In the opening of the year, however, many of the erring had been
reclaimed, and a new and better era had dawned on the church. A
genuine revival was in progress, resulting in more than a hundred con-
verts. Prayer is earnestly offered that still greater blessings may follow
this happy beginning.
Another critical condition in our work is the restlessness of our
young people arising from a desire to better their temporal prospects
by money-making or going abroad. In some respects this is not

blameworthy. We all rejoice to sec these long-oppressed Christians
rising to a higher plane of life and prosperity, and the missionaries are
trying to help them in this. But this condition of mind is not favor-
able to spiritual things. There are, however, some earnest Christian
workers, and the year 1889 closes with a brighter outlook than it
began.
The Spirit and Growth of Christian Character^ as reported at the
gathering last summer for Bible study and prayer, was a great encour-
agement. The same spirit and earnest prayer and hard work and
faithful searching of heart weie manifest at the fall meeting of the
Synod. The week of prayer followed and was observed with solem-
nity and hopefulness and with special interest in a few places. The
hopes of succeeding weeks were frustrated by the widespread influ-
enza, which for a time paralyzed congregations and schools. This
world-wide illness has caused much suffering and many deaths, and
the apprehension of cholera to follow throws a cloud over the future
which ought to render men thoughtful. Four ordained native minis-
ters have been removed by death. One of them, Rev. Mr. Hormezd,
was a prominent Christian man and moderator of the Synod.
The Generous Giving to the Missionary Funds is mentioned. More
has been raised for the native missionary fund than ever before, and
the activity of the native Board is very encouraging in visiting the
congregations and in spreading the glad tidings. They are prepared
to pay one-lhfrd the cost of several churches through their Church
Erection Board. The Home Mission Board has raised $250. The
Evangelical Board of the Synod expects to collect and distribute ^360
this year.
The Work for Moslems has been marked by no wonderful results,
but several inquirers are spoken of — some of them men of standing.
One of the converts was violently attacked by a Moslem in a public
place, and it was surprising that he escaped with his life. Another
witness for Christ has closed his life triumphantly. '* It is touching to
think of the love to Christ which sustained this poor soul to the last in
trust upon the Saviour against the entreaties and jeers of his friends.
Surely it cost something for him to believe and hold fast his profession
firmly to the end." The work for Moslem Women and Girls bears fruit.
Miss Van Duzee's report of work is full of interest. The evidence of
the Holy Spirit's presence among the daughters of Islam we accept as
a proof that the Lord is willing to answer prayer and to bless the hum-
ble means for poor Christless souls. It is a question that presses upon
the missionary how to make larger efforts, and they lay it upon the
hearts of all Christians as a subject to be constantly brought to the
Lord in prayer.
The Work for Women all over this field is pressing, and the mission
appeal urgently for a single lady to devote herself to village work.
Such work in many places is more productive than similar efforts for
men, as the women are always at home and can be reached more sys-
tematically. The work of the native evangelist or Bible-reader, Laya,
has been reported in ** Woman's Work for Woman."
The Village Schools- — The report for the winter of 1888-9 says :
Digitized by VjOOQIC
WESTERN PERSIA — OROOMIAH. 167
'* The school fund was short, and,/(7r the sake of economy^ the station
reduced the number of schools from 85 to 73. In Gawar the Turkish
Government expelled three teachers and closed three schools. They
seemed determined to stop our school work in this region if possible.
In Nochea, just south of Gawar, the Metropolitan is very friendly. A
theological student, much beloved, spent several winters successfully
in this district, but last spring he was attacked by Koords, who aimed
to kill him. After being badly beaten he was jammed into an oven in
the ground and left for dead He recovered consciousness and mer-
cifully escaped to the plains. The report of his death had preceded
him. There was consequently great joy among his weeping friends
when he appeared as one risen from the dead. Notwithstanding this
treatment he is ready to return again to his field of labor. While there
was a falling off in numbers the quality of schools was never better.
The competition in some villages was very sharp with the free schools
offered by the Ritualists, and it is a sign of the stability of our work
that this competition has caused so little real injury. All our prayers
and efforts are to the end that our young men who are acting as teach-
ers may feel the responsibility of their position, and may have power
from on high for their work. With a consecrated corps of teachers
we may look for blessed results." Of the past winter Mr. R. M.
Labaree, who has charge?, says : ** This winter our schools start out
with flattering prospects, and we think last winter's work will be ex-
celled. The superior abilities and greater faithfulness of our teachers
have been very manifest and are bearing fruit."
In Higher Education for Girls the year is signalized as the first in
the new building of the " Fidelia Fiske Seminary," and nearly 100
girls in attendance. Miss Dean's failing health has thrown heavy bur-
dens upon the young shoulders of Miss Melton, and the call for help
is very urgent. It is needed at once, that the interests of the school
may not seriously suffer. We have not at hand the full report of this
school.
Oroomiah College has had a prosperous year, with 100 students in
attendance. Mr. St. Pierre, the superintendent, reports : Theological
students, 12; college course, 56; preparatory or special, 32 — total,
100. " The two terms were full of intellectual activity. There was
good order throughout. The religious life was very encouraging.
The revivals seemed only the natural fruit of the deep religious feeling
pervading the entire year. They were revivals, too, in the true sense
of awakening Christians. In the last term eight students were so
thoroughly awakened that it seemed a conversion to them. They
were church members before, but profoundly asleep, and their new
confessions were evidently induced by the Spirit. God was working
mightily among them. If it be asked, were sinners converted ? the
answer is, that all our students are professing Christians and church
members."
The teaching force was very much weakened by the absence of Dr.
Shedd. Sixteen were graduated last July from the college course.
They are now engaged as teachers and are very faithful and success-
ful A new class of 18 was admitted in September.

Expenses — The pupils bear the expense of their own boaxd^ books,
clothes, and incidentals. The college furnishes the teaching and
rooms. In a rootn, say i6 by 20, six or seven boys lodge. As they
study, sit, and spread their beds at night upon the floor, very little fur-
niture is required. They form clubs and board at an expense of only
one dollar a month. Their food is very simple, consisting mainly of
coarse bread and meat soup. They dress simply and certainly live
very cheaply.
Equipment — ^The college has grounds and buildings and library and
apparatus worth twelve or fifteen thousand dollars. There are two
main buildings, built of sun-dried brick, with red brick trimmings.
They appear well and are roomy. One of these buildings was erected
the last summer to enlarge the dormitory accommodations. A fund
of 1(3,000 was raised last year for this new dormitory and to open an
industrial department. This new department has been undertaken
by the Board, under the conviction that education of the hand as well
as of the head is important in this field. The native workers need
self-reliance and ability to help themselves, and the Christian society
must meet the question : How are our people to live honestly and
thriftily as becomes the Gospel ? To save the young men from de-
moralization, this industrial department is begun. ''The college aims
to be the centre of influence and enlightenment for a vast region.
With this in view the mission have urged the collecting of funds for
the permanent support of the institution, and that the effort be perse-
vered in until the requisite amount be secured." There is an invested
fund of $5,000, and the steady annual gift for current expenses from
a gentleman in Philadelphia, of $2,000, which is the basis for the per-
manent support. Let a sufficient sum be put into this work and we
shall see what God will do through such a native agency as shall be
raised up.
The Medical Work, in the absence of Dr. Cochran, was conducted
in part by Dr. Oshana Badal, the native medical assistant. The
hospital was reopened on Dr. Cochran's return in the early winter, and
the work of mercy has been going on since. The outlook of the
medical work is always encouraging, and there is a class of several
students under instruction.
The Press at Oroomiah has accomplished about the same in amount
and quality of work as in previous years. Rev. Dr. Labaree in charge
says : '* Considering our isolation from skilled book manufactories, and
the fact that our printers and binders are all trained on the ground and
have but limited appliances for finished work, we have reason to con-
gratulate ourselves on the comparative excellence of our press produc-
tions. Our type, for which the punches and matrices were made here,
under the skilled direction of our first printing superintendent, Mr.
Breath, are acknowledged as the most beautiful Syriac type in exist-
ence, and are adopted by some of the first Oriental publishing houses in
Germany and England. It may be classed as one among the many
aids contributed by foreign missions to the advancement of learning
and scholarship in the world.
" The whole number of pages printed during the year was 688,720.

WESTERN PERSIA — OROOMIAH. 1 69
The most important work was a translation of Mr. Spurgeon's * Morn-
ing by Morning/ It takes the place of a former work called * Green
Pastures/ which has long been a household volume among the lovers
of devotional reading. The new volume promises to become even
more a favorite than the earlier one."
The monthly newspaper and the Sabbath -school quarterly lesson
papers are more widely taken than in any previous year. The Turkish
authorities have forbidden the circulation of the books and papers in
Turkey, which is much to be regretted, and deprives the Syrian Chris-
tians of Koordistan of their literature. The book circulation ending
with June, 1889, was 2,272 volumes.
In the same connection should be mentioned the Revision of the
Syriac Old Testament^ which Dr. Labaree and a committee of native
scholars have undertaken and have brought near completion. It has
proved a work of more magnitude and perplexity than was at first sup-
posed, and has required much deliberation and careful scholarship. It
is really a revision in the same language in which parts of the Scripture
were written — the Aramaic — the tongue spoken by our Saviour and
His apostles. It should be done with prayer, pains, and patience to
secure the best results.
Mr. Coan, whose report of evangelistic work was received after this
report was prepared, gives many interesting facts, of which the follow-
ing are a fair sample.
Mr. Coan says : •* Our evening service was held in the largest and
oldest house in the village of Murbeshoo. In a large room, 70 by 40
feet, dark with the smoke of nearly 200 years, lives a family of 72
souls. Here under one roof they eat, sleep, and live with four large
ovens iu the ground to furnish the cooking. From one of the walls,
which is solid rock and toward the mountain side, gushes a beautiful
spring right into the rooin. As this is the head family of the village, it
is an inn for travellers as well, so that one is here always sure of a good
congregation. I shall never forget the service that evening. In this
dark room, lighted by a few flickering lamps, grouped in circles about
their hearths, sat nearly 100 souls, from the aged great-grandfather to
the little infants asleep in their cradles. A variety of creeds was
represented in this one family. Right in front of me in one group sat
two priests of the old church, one a venerable, fine-looking man, the
other a Catholic priest who has no following ; another a disciple of the
Ritualists, and one a graduate from theology in our school in the class
of 1888, with his mother, who is a Christian. All listened attentively
to the simple Gospel stor}'."
An hour from this place Mr. Coan was invited to preach in the old
church, and there was no objection from priest or people. But they
unitedly begged for a preacher and teacher to reside among them.
Their request was granted and a school of more than 40 is in success-
ful operation there.
A band of six young men, deeply impressed with the necessity of a
purer Christianity and more closely following Christ, met regularly
together for prayer and conference. They then were the means of
arousing the pastor, resulting in a conference with the missionaries.

and not long after the revival referred to in another part of ihis report
began, and the greatest success seems to have been in places where
there was the greatest coldness and unconcern.
In Ardeshai, where the church was unusually dead and the pastor
greatly prejudiced, a remarkable revival has occurred, in which the
church is greatly quickened, the pastor entirely won over, and 22 have
confessed Christ and are determined to follow Him. One hundred
and ten dollars were also subscribed as one-third toward a new church.
The last report brought by Mr. St. Pierre from Golpashan, where he
and Deacon Ismaiel worked three days, is grand. In this church that
had the courage to drop 24 leading members, who did not show signs
of repentance, all but four have again been received back, and 71 pro-
fess Christ for the first time. It is hoped that we have but seen the
beginning, and that many churches from which earnest prayers have
ascended may receive similar blessings.
The Mountain Department.
Last year's report mentioned the difficulty of locating the mountain
station in Tiary, owing to a feud between the Tiary people and the
surrounding Koords. This difficulty in a large measure continues, and
the missionaries have had their headquarters in the field. The reports
of the work are full of interest and encouragement. Mr. McDowell
gives a vivid picture of missionary experience among nominal Chris-
tians, Yezidees, and Moslems. The most powerful Koordish sheikh is
Sheikh Mohammed, of Bawmermee in Berwer. ** My visit was made
for the purpose of disarming the suspicions of the Koords of that
region, who regard us as political agents of some kind hostile to them.
The Mullahs and the sons of the sheikh received me very coolly,
but the sheikh himself, who is a very old man and quite venerable in
appearance, treated us with great courtesy. He expressed gratification
at the explanations of our work, and gave us a cordial invitation
to come again, especially after the arrival of Dr. Wishard. He volun-
tarily gave us, and especially the doctor, freedom to come and go
through his territory at pleasure. Thus friendship was established at
Koordish headquarters at the doorway of Tiary. Passing into Tiary,
the leading Malek or chief manifested his usual friendliness, but inti-
mated that the trouble with the Koords was in part because of the
missionaries, and they should exert themselves to protect these Chris-
tians. This spirit is very strong among the Tiary people, that the
business of missionaries and the Christian power^ is to put the Koords
under the feet of the Christians. It leads the mountain people, as
their danger and difficulty increase, to offer their adherence to Rus-
sians, French, English, or Americans — to any one that promises civil
protection. This condition renders the independent tribes of Tiary
and Tkhoma a very difficult field at present." After spending a part
of the winter in Tiary, Mr. McDowell returned through Berwer to
Dihi, where there is a flourishing congregation, and then spent some
weeks in Bohtan, a district further west. **Dr. Wishard arrived in the
latter part of March, and very soon demonstrated the value of a
physician in a new field. About the ist of May he was called to visit
Digitized by VjOOQIC
WESTERN PERSIA— MOUNTAINS. 171
a prominent man at Dihi, who was lying sick. He saved the man's
life, but himself fell sick, and for a time his life was almost despaired
of. It had been his intention to Remain in the mountains during the
summer, but in view of his physical condition and the lack of all con-
veniences, it was deemed best by us both that we go to Oroomiah."
On the way in May occurred the robbery, fully detailed in the Church
at Home and Abroad for March, 1890. After spending some weeks at
Orooraiah and attending annual meeting, the two missionaries returned
to their field in the fall. On entering Turkey they were met by
quarantine, but the Turks learning that one of the missionaries was a
physician, with the Sultan's commission in his hands, they were earn-
estly pressed into service at Mosul. Dr. Wishard at once was recog-
nized as the medical authority in the cholera-stricken city, and soon
acquired great influence with all classes. The winter just closing has
thus been spent, partly in Mosul and partly in different districts. The
latest intelligence, January 17, 1890, says of them at Dihi : '* Dr.
Wishard called upon the sheikh mentioned above, whose residence is
but a short distance from Dihi. The sheikh. readily gave his consent
to our building a house in Dihi." So far as the station has a home it
is found at this place. " Here will always be a centre of work, and a
house in which to work is simply indispensable. I have planned the
house, made all the estimates, and I trust we shall soon have a fair
house at a moderate sum. It is to answer the purposes of church,
school, pastor's residence, and also a residence for missionaries, and
last, but not least, for a dispensary and hospital."
Turning from the oudine of missionary movements to the work, Mr.
McDowell gives a sketch of the field and its peoples, and the open-
ings and departments of work, which must be condensed.
In the rugged mountains are the semi-independent tribes of Tiary
and Tkhoma and the smaller districts of Tal and Rakan. Tal and
Rakan have but few Christian villages. The latter gathers an audi*
ence every day, and on Sabbath it numbers about forty. Six persons
are candidates for membership. Tkhoma is populous, forming an
almost continuous village for miles. Muzrai, one of the largest cen-
tres, is also the centre of missionary operations. Good work was
done by the young man stationed there, with large congregations and
many who professed a desire to live a new life. There were two
schools in Tkhoma.
Tiary lies along the Zab River, which divides it into two parts, each
of these being again divided, making four divisions with four Maleks,
or chiefs, and some 50 or 60 villages. Lizan and Zarnee are the only
points where we have congregations. In the first there are but few
members. One of these is the son of the Malek. He is a sober-
minded man, and gives evidence of a regenerate heart.
Zarnee lies at the extreme lower end of Tiary. It is the point
selected for the station. Our church numbers about 15 members, and
the meetings held last winter were the means of much good. We had
fwe schools in Tiary, but feeble ones.
Passing toward the plains of Assyria the next district is Berwer^
Digitized by VjOOQIC
172 WESTERN PERSIA— MOUNTAINS.
with some 30 Syriac \ illages. The people are completely subject to
the Koords, and these Koords are at war with the Tiary people. There
are a few church members, and but a poor opportunity for quiet labor
because of the threatening attitude of the Koords. Beyond a low range
of hills lies the Supna district, with a large population, Koordish and
Christian. The latter are largely Roman Catholics. We have one
church at Dihi, where a mission-house is being built. Mr. McDowell
says : ** Our work in Dihi has been a source of joy to me. The church
is exceptionally pure and zealous and full of good works. We have
had daily meetings, and besides have held morning prayers in many
houses of the village, and in the evening have visited from house to
house with an experience the most blessed of my missionary life.
There are a number who seem to have a change of heart, and it is not
too much to expect that erelong the entire village will become Prot-
estant, and the great majority of them true Christians."
From this point a three days' journey westward brings us to Bohian^
a very large district, part of it a fertile plain along the Tigris and part
the mountains which lie. toward Van. The church in Hassan is the
oldest and largest, but successive years of famine and the oppressions
of the Koords have crushed the life out of the people, still they
give liberally out of their deep poverty to the supix)rt of their pastor.
Monsoria is a large village on the Tigris River, with a strong and
promising church, marked by brotherly love and zeal. They are
always at work for specific persons, and there are always inquirers in
the church. There is great opposition, but the progress is constant
toward leavening the whole population with the Gospel truth. Above
and below this point are large districts. Two of the villages visited
are very interesting, and open to the Gospel and begging for a teacher.
In two other directions the influence of the year must be noted. One
of these is a tentative effort among the strange people called the Yezi-
deeSf or Worshippers of Satan, in the plain of Assyria. Two of our
evangelists visited them, not as Christian teachers, but as artisans.
The substance of their report, so far as it afTects practical work, is
that they were received in 9 very friendly manner ; the people are
open to religious conversation, show little consciousness of sin, but
much openness to the Gospel. They are very ignorant, all education
being confined to two families. Mission work would meet with little
opposition from the lower classes, but the rulers, who are very sus- ,
picious, would fight it to the death. Open work would at present be
impossible. Personal work done by Christian ma&ons would be pro-
ductive of much good. It is this method that is to be followed up
for the present. The other direction was among the Roman Catholic
Syrians of El Kosk, the reputed burial-place of Nahum, the prophet,
and the seat of the Chaldean Patriarch. While our evangelist for the
Yezidees was tarrying at El Kosk a large party of the people awoke to
his instructions and threw off the Papal yoke, and asked him to be
their teacher. The ecclesiastics soon raised a mob on a Sabbath
evening, dragged the evangelist out of the village, beat him, maltreated
him, destroyed his books, and took possession of his property. This

case of persecution did not stop the movement. There is good hope
of winning a permanent footing in this important centre.
In the entire field there are six churches with about 150 members.
Twelve preachers were employed during the winter, seven of them
being evangelists for part of the time. There were twelve schools.
The number of accessions to the churches was not definitely reported.
Three of these churches contributed to their own support.
77ie medical work of Dr. Wishard began on the day of his arrival
last year, in March. He at once treated many patients, thus winning
the favor of the Government and of the important Koordish leaders.
At every place he visits he is overwhelmed with patients, and he has
pressing invitations from chiefs whom he hopes to visit. On every
hand his influence is felt, while in the city of Mosul there is an urgent
demand for his constant presence.
The experience of the past year shows that the seal of divine ap-
proval rests upon earnest, self-denying labors all over the Syriac-speak-
ing field, both in Persia and Turkey, notwithstanding serious difficul-
ties. There is the living church of 2,000 members, and radiating in-
fluences upon the great Moslem population in many directions, which
render the reformation and mission work going forward among the
Nestorians an important factor in the evangelization of the East.
Tabriz.
The mission force at this important centre has suffered depletion
since last report. Dr, Holmes and his wife were obliged to leave on
account of ill-health. For a year before he left Dr. H. was physi-
cian-in-chief to his Royal Highness the Vali Ahd, or heir-apparent
of Persia, but he was at this post in the full spirit of a missionary.
Rev. W. L. Whipple, the agent of the A. B. Society, with head-
quarters at Tabriz, who co-operates earnestly with our brethren, is
also absent on furlough, and Rev. Mr. Oldfather is on his way to
America. Mr. Wilson is the only clerical missionary left, and greatly
needs the promised reinforcements.
The work has gone forward as in the previous year. Two preach
ing services have been regularly supplied. The church has received
seven additions, mostly from the schools.
Outstations, — ^The field work from Tabriz comprises about three-
fourths of the province of Azcrbijan, one of the most populous and
fertile of the provinces of Persia. There are several cities of im-
portance. In two of these — Maragha and Soujbullak — there are per-
manent preachers and congregations. Their work has prospered the
past year, both among Moslems and other races. In two smaller
places — Mianduab and Ilkachee — schools and services have been kept
up. In these outstations there are 16 communicants.
Itinerant labors by four evangelists have been going on most of
the year. The report says: "The Moslems have a listening ear for
the truth. There is certainly a spirit of inquiry and unrest among
them, and while for the present Babism (whose head is a captive at
Digitized by VjOOQIC
174 WESTERN PERSIA— TABRIZ.
Acre, in Syria) is flourishing greatly, our hope is that when the ex-
pectations inspired by this new religion fail, its devotees may turn to
Christ the true * Bab * or * Door' This preaching of the Word in con-
nection with Bible distribution has been going on in the cities and
villages for several years. It is looked upon with unconcern by the
Government as harmless. Its results are preparatory in most cases,
removing prejudice and giving to many correct ideas of Christianity,
as well as the Word of God to read. One of our evangelists writes of
work in the camp of the Shah when he was on the road to Europe.
* Half a mile distant from Zenjan I took some books with me to the
camp. I met many educated men and sold them some Bibles. After
that I went to the tent of the Shah, and told the chief of the eunuchs
that I had brought for his Majesty the Shah the Word of God. He
did not let me go in, but took the books from me and carried them
to the Shah, who returned me the value of the Bibles. I talked much
with the chief of the eunuchs about Jesus, that we can by Him be
saved from the servitude of Satan. Then 1 went to the prince, uncle
of the Shah, and talked to him of the love of God who sent His Son
to die on the cross. He was very glad to hear and bought two
Bibles.' "
Other encouraging tours were made among the Jews to the south
and among the Armenians of Karadagh. This kind of effort, how-
ever, has been largely prevented by other work. Books have been
circulated in several languages ; in all 2,196 volumes sold. "There
is a good demand for religious books in Armenian and for the 'Pilgrim's
Progress' in Persian."
Educational work in Tabriz and in the outstations has gone on
more quietly than in any previous year.
The boys' school in Tabriz is well organized with primary, intermedi-
ate, high-school, and theological class ; in all 20 boarding and 47 day
pupils. The upper class of the high- school has seven promising young
men. The class in theology was just beginning, and students were
expected from the Caucasus as well as from Persia. The seven
graduates of last summer are doing good work in the schools. Three
are teaching in Tabriz field, two in Salinas, and two in Orooniiah. The
graduation of this class was the first annual commencement of the
high-school. They represented five districts or cities of Persia and
one of the Caucasus. They are all believers, and have made such
progress, mentally and spiritually, as to render these first-fruits very pre-
cious. Their graduation was honored by the presence of consuls, and
generals, and others — Persian and European — of high official rank.
There are plans for the enlargement of this school which promise
much good.
Tlie pressing need is a suitable building, as the term of rent of the
present poorly-adapted buildings is soon to expire. Under the circum-
stances the mission urgently requested the Beard to allow an effort to
be made to raise special funds, not to inteifere wiin the regular in-
come of the Board. After careful examination the Board approved.
An ai)peal appeared in the March number of the Church at Home

and Abroad. God's answer was most remarkable through a gener-
ous friend, who at once pledged the J 10,000 needed to open this
Christian training-school in the commercial capital of Persia. The
building will be a memorial, as is also the new church edifice in
Tabriz. They both, we trust, will stand till the light of the blessed
Gospel shall shine over all Persia.
The GirU School in Tabriz has had a prosperous year, having 30
day pupils in the lower department and 25 pupils in the boarding de-
partment. The report says : " The studies of the year have been
pursued without interruption — with no sickness. Nine of the girls
testified a desire to live a new life by faith in Christ Jesus. Examina-
tions were held in January, April, and June. Those in June continued
three days. A class of four girls — all Christians — ^graduated. It was
a pretty sight — those four white-robed girls, their faces bright with
anticipations of future happy usefulness, as they stood listening to Mrs.
Van Hook's parting words of loving counsel. One was married and
has gone with her husband to Mianduab as helper and teacher. An-
other has gone to Salmas to aid Miss Van Duzee. Two remain as
teachers in this institution." The ladies of the school have been able
to make between three and four hundred calls in addition to school
duties. Mrs. Van Hook gratefully contrasts the beginnings ten years
ago, when with difficulty three girls were induced to enter the mission-
ary's house, and only ten pupils were enrolled for the year, and the
present, with a handsome, commodious building filled with boarding
and day pupils, four competent native teachers, and an excellent ma-
tron, and lessons in higher studies and music, along with the constant
study of the Bible and Catechism. The progress shows what God has
wrought.
Medical Work. — Miss M. E. Bradford. M.D., arrived in Tabriz in
the fall of 1888. She devoted herself to the study of the language at
first, and refused medical work as far as possible. After a few months
she opened the dispensary once a week in self-defence, so many came
to her house at all hours. A month later a second day was added,
and before long every day there were patients seen for three hours.
From August, 1889, she was able to converse with these patients with-
out an interpreter. Previous to that time Mrs. Wilson devoted a great
deal of time to helping at the dispensary and in visits at houses.
Dr. Holmes' faithful service for many years did much toward secur-
ing for Miss Bradford the hearty reception she received. For three
months also she had the benefit of his advice and experience.
The summary of work embraces 565 visits to houses, 450 new pa-
tients, 450 office visits, and 1,204 prescriptions. Dr. Bradford says :
'* The social grade of the people to whom we have gone ranges from
the highest to the lowest. The rich have received us gladly, and not
less have we gone to the poor and miserable who were suffering in
some damp cellar or hovel. One of the chief wives of His Majesty
the Shah, during a short stay in Tabriz^ sent for us several times. She
si>oke of the great need of lady physicians in this land and expressed
the wish to have one at the capital. When informed that Dr. Smith
12

176 WESTERN PERSIA— SALM AS.
was coming to that city, she wrote expressing great joy. There have
been frequent visits to the household of His Royal Highness the Vali
Ahd and also at the home of the Chief Councillor.
'* By means of this medical work many have heard the Bible and
been told of Christ as their Saviour. At the dispensary there is a
short service before treating the patients. A Bible-woman always
stays in the waiting-room, and often she has been invited to visit the
houses."
There is continual pressure to enlarge the medical work into a
hospital, and Miss Bradford makes an appeal for such an enlargement
in Tabriz, but the way does not seem yet fully prepared.
Salmas.
Mr. Wright returned to this station in the fall of 1889, the burden
of the work previously falling upon Mr. Mechlin, who was still imi>er-
fectly acquainted with the language. Miss Roberts being compelled
to leave, Miss Dale was persuaded to take her place for the year, but
she returns again to Teheran. This mission force is now divided :
Mr. and Mrs. Mechlin and two single ladies, living in Haftdewan, an
Armenian town, and headquarters for Armenian work ; Mr. and Mrs.
Wright, living in Oola, the headquarters for the work among Nesto-
rians, Roman Catholics, and Moslems.
In Haftdewan there is as yet no church. The congregation on
Sunday varies from thirty to ninety. There is a great change in the
friendliness of the people, but the cry is for God*s Spirit to breathe
upon them the breath of life. The larger part of the audience is com-
posed of women, to whom the missionary ladies give a special talk
after the sermon. Occasionally some of the young men and a few of
the older men come in. Miss Van Duzee spends much of her time
visiting in Haftdewan and in the surrounding villages, and meets with
a kind reception. In Education the effort for the Armenians is cer-
tainly encouraging. There were 60 boys in school from February to
July. As fast as the poor boys dropped out in the spring to care for
kids and calves or work on the farm, the sons of the richer class came
in. Several cases were noted, where the parents opposed, but the boys
said they would not go to school unless it was the mission school, and
a night class for the larger boys succeeded for a time, but the influenza
broke up the class. Daily lessons are given in the school, and it is
hoped that a boarding department may be added soon. The Girli
School has had 10 boarders, and the roll has 72 day pupils. Some of
the latter are very irregular, but the average has been about 50. Miss
Dale had a busy winter. The most remarkable thing is that the Ar-
menian priests do not forbid the girls attending the school.
The outstations for Armenian work are at Old City or Old Salmas
and Khoy, with not very encouraging progress.
The work in Oola is in good condition, with audiences of 50 and
60, and interesting meetings for the women, and not the least inter-
esting have been those for the Moslem women. There has been but
Digitized by VjOOQIC
WESTERN PERSIA— SALMAS. \^^
one addition to the church, which numbers 28 members. The Girls
School is conducted by Khorraa, who was for several years a worker
in the Chinese Home in San Francisco. In Gulezaiu an adjoining
village, is an interesting school, chiefly of Moslem boys. In these
villages the Romanists are the great opposers, by all the means they
know so well how to use. In Khosrowa, their stronghold, our colpor-
teur has his rented house and many of the people are friendly, but not
ready to confess the truth against the persecution. The Colporteur
Work has been large in the sale of Bibles and school-books ; in the
Armenian villages especially there is constant demand.
A new interest has started among the Jews of Old Salmas. A
young man from the Oroomiah Theological Class has succeeded be-
yond expectations. He rented a room and his widowed aunt keeps
house for him, and has gathered a school of 30 boys and, young men,
and a large attendance at the service for prayer and expounding the
Word. The Jews are much divided among themselves, the liberal
portion welcoming the Christian teacher as often as he will attend
their synagogue. It is another indication of the gathering in of the
chosen people in the lands of their long captivity.
The report speaks of the friendliness of the people. " I count
among my best friends some of the chief Moslems of this district,"
says Mr. Mechlin. But there is the lack of deep spiritual power and
the ingathering of souls which must come if the faithful laborers faint
nor.
Other missions in the field are the French Lazarists of the Romish
Church and the Anglican Ritualists among the Syriac-speaking people.
In the Tabriz field Swedish missionaries — evangelical and earnest — are
at work. They found restrictions in the Russian dominions so great
that they have come over into the more tolerant kingdom of the Shah,
and il is hoped that they will join in fellowship and comity with our
missionaries.
The first report of the mission in Persia under this Board was for
the year 187 1, nineteen years ago. The station then was only one, at
Oroomiah ; the communicants were 700 ; pupils in schools, 960.
Compare with this the present work of six stations, and in the Western
Mission over 2,000 communicants and 2,374 pupils in the schools, and
we can see that the work is progressing rapidly, giving us good ground
for expecting a great blessing in the near future.
Note.— After this report was in type refreshinf^ news has come from Oroomiah. The
revival which began in Ardeshai had extended its influence imtil about /our hundrea
persons have been converted, and the blessed work continues.

Eastern Persia Mission.
The year in this mission was rendered somewhat eventful by the
presence of cholera in Hamadan and its threatened invasion of
Teheran. The visitation, however, was confined to the former sta-
tion, and there our missionaries were mercifully preserved, although
the scourge entered our Faith Hubbard School, claiming one of the
girls as its victim, and necessitating the closing of the school for a
time. The presence of the disease within the bounds of the mission
seemed to render it prudent to omit the usual annual meeting. It also
temporarily interfered with the distribution of the new missionaries
who had accompanied Mr. and Mrs. Potter on their return to Teheran,
viz., Miss Mary W. Greene, Miss Adeline Hunter, and Mary J. Smith,
M.D. Miss Hunter, though under appointment to Hamadan, spent
the winter in the capital studying the language and assisting in the
boys* school.
Teheran Station,
The spiritual condition of the two churches connected with this
station is not as encouraging as in former years. That at Resht —
some 200 miles from the capital — is at best but a feeble flock, and
labors under the disadvantage of being far removed from the imme-
diate supervision of a foreign missionary, although having the minis-
Digitized by VjOOQIC
EASTERN PERSIA— TEHERAN. 1 79
trations of a native pastor. It numbers only aine members, none
having been added during the year. A letter from Teheran laments
the spiritual lethargy ot the church in that city, a number of the mem-
bers giving little evidence of a deep spirituality, and not a few of them
being addicted to the wine-drinking habit of the country, to the mani-
fest detriment of their spiritual life. One was dropped from the roll,
and four were suspended during the year. It is hoped that the meas-
ures now taken may result in the purifying of the church and the
deepening of individual piety. It is gratifying to report on the other
hand that four persons were received into the church on confession of
faith, and that the attendance on the Sabbath services averaged 136.
Preaching was sustained in the Persian language on Sunday morning
and Friday afternoon, while services were held in Armenian on Sun-
day afternoons in the West Side chapel, where Baron Mahran has
recently been placed in charge. The envelope system of giving to
the Lord's work, introduced a year ago, has worked well, the total
gifts for the year, including the Christmas offering, amounting to about
$193.
The work at Kasvin^ an outstation under the charge of Mirza
Ohannes, is reported as flourishing. The native evangelist is an
enthusiastic laborer, busying himself with selling the Scriptures, hold-
ing services in Armenian and Persian on the Lord's day, and em-
bracing every opportunity for private conversation on religious
subjects. Mr. Esselstyn visited the point during June, spending two
days there and administering the Lord's Supper to a few of the mem-
bers of Teheran church located there temporarily or permanently.
The success of the evangelist has to some extent excited the fanaticism
of the Moslems, so that he finds great difBculty in securing a house to
rent, but few of the Armenians owning property at that place. Some
have asked for the organization of a church and the establishment of a
school. During the year Mr. Esselstyn visited twenty-six villages,
mostly Mohammedan, repeating the visits several times in a number
of instances, and preaching the Gospel as he had opportunity without
marked opposition.
Educational. — The Girl^ Boarding-School is henceforth to be known
as " Iran Bethel " — the Persian Bethel. May it ever prove to be a house
of God ! Eighty-one girls were enrolled during the year, representing
five nationalities, and speaking six languages. Of these 1 2 are pro-
fessing Christians, and 5 others have expressed a desire to confess
Christ. The spiritual atmosphere of the school seems to be healthful.
The report from the pen of Miss Schenck says : " The girls all have
part in family worship morning and evening, repeating Scripture singly
and in concert. Morning prayers are followed by a silent devotional
time before breakfast. The weekly school prayer-meeting is con-
ducted by the Christian girls. Very precious and helpful times we
have together. Several are efficient Bible-teachers, both daily in the
school and in the church Sunday-school ; their faithfulness, interest,
and spirituality adding not a little to the effeciiveness of the teachers'
meeting held weekly at the house of Mr. Esselstyn. A few of the
girls have earned their clothing by giving help in teaching, while all
Digitized by VjOOQIC
l8o EASTERN PERSIA— TEHERAN.
have taken part in the domestic work of the school. The school is
advancing steadily toward self-support."
''The summer was occupied as usual with the Industrial SchooL
It is all its name indicates as to industry for all concerned — a steadily
unintermitted day-by-day occupation — planning, cutting, fixing, direct-
ing, calculating, following up, correcting, and instructing a lot of
children eager and interested beyond their years, deserving credit for
good, faithful work, yet after all the most childish of children. A
number are very helpful in using the machines. This is an alUitnport-
ant part of our school work, not only as necessary to a girl's education,
but essential for sanitar}' and prudential reasons, to have the clothing
and household articles ready for use. Indeed, without the result of
the Industrial School, we should be quite unprepared to have a school
at all. This summer the two months given up to this work produced
more than 900 articles of clothing and household outfit, including
some 2,500 buttonholes."
Miss Greene has been added to the teaching force of this institution,
and with the consent of the West Persia Mission, the Board has trans-
ferred Miss Dale to her former place in the school, expecting, how-
ever, that a good portion of her time will be devoted to work among
the women. These additions are most timely, as the burden upon
Miss Schenck and Miss Basset t has been very heavy.
The Boys' School ^ under the care of Mr. Ward, made decided
progress during the year in numbers, efficiency, and self-support.
Eighty were enrolled, 46 being in the boardmg department, and 34
being day scholars. Of the entire number 14 are Mohammedans, 4 fire
worshippers, 2 Americans, i English, and the rest Armenians. Twenty-
seven of the boarders paid in whole or in part ; 26 of the day pupils
took breakfast in the school and paid for it. Last year but 14 of the
pupils contributed anything toward their own support. The receipts
from tuition this year amounted to $225. Some difficulty has been expe-
rienced in securing satisfactory teachers, but it is believed that this has
now been overcome. The spiritual condition of the school has not been
what could be desired, but Mr. Ward writes : " During the present
term 1 have seen decided signs of more earnest purpose on the part of
the professors of religion, and more respectful attention at the relig-
ious exercises on the part of all.'' As the school has been established
with the ultimate purpose of training Christian teachers and ministers,
it is earnestly hoped that the superintendent's desire may be realized
in seeing a deeper interest in spiritual things on the part of the
pupils.
This station was honored during the year by a visit from the Emin-
ed-Dowleh, Minister of Posts and President of the Shah's Cabinet.
After a careful inspection of the schools, he expressed himself as highly
gratified at seeing such a work going forward for the uplifting of Persia.
He has since expressed a desire to have a school for Moslem boys
begun under supervision of the Americans.
Medical. — Several years ago, on the basis of the generous gift of Mrs.
M. W. Ferry, of Lake Forest, the Board authorized the establishing of a
hospital, it being understood in advance that a site for the purpose
Digitized by VjOOQIC
EASTERN PERSIA— RAMADAN. Hi
was to be given by the Prime Minister of Persia. This hope, however,
was never realized, and it was finally determined to abandon the idea
of securing a gift and to purchase a site for the hospital over which
the Board might have control. Through the kindness of some of the
officials this was secured at a comparatively low price, about one mile
from the present mission premises, the Shah having suggested that
it would not be well to plant it too near the government hospital.
The lot comprises twenty-four thousand square yards. Upon this is
being erected at present a pavilion for the accommodation of 20
patients and also a house for the resident physician. Ground was
broken on May 18, 1889, ^"^ ^^^ corner-stone laid on August 6th,
the Hon. £. Spencer Pratt, American Minister to the Shah, presiding
on the occasion and making a brief address. It is to be noted with
gratitude that the work is progressing without interference on the part
of the local authorities, and that a gift of 20,000 bricks has been made
by the brother of the Prime Minister. Meanwhile work has been
prosecuted at the dispensary as usual, 4,237 prescriptions having been
issued during the year. It is to be regretted that the religious work
connected with this department has not been prominent, as it has not
been thought best to provoke Mussulman prejudice by systematic
religious instruction. It is expected that the opening of the hospital
will make a new departure in this direction, as provision will be made
not only for stated religious services, but for such other Christian
effort as is possible with indoor patients. In this work, both medical
and spiritual, Mary J. Smith, M.D., a recent graduate of one of the
Chicago Medical Colleges, is henceforth to be associated with Dr.
Torrence.
Hamadan Station,
The distracting elements which had disturbed the church at this station
for some time have happily disappeared, and two very delightful com-
munion seasons were held during the yean That observed in July
was preceded by a week of special services which proved to be refresh-
ing and helpful both to the missionaries and the church. Nine were
received on confession of faith during the year, 3 of them being from
the Faith Hubbard Girls' School, and one from the Boys' High-School.
This church, like that at Teheran, has felt the blighting curse of the
wine trade. After years of patient and prayerful effort, the session
was constrained to dismiss four of the members during the year because
of their connection with this trade. Three of these still continue to
attend divine services, and it is hoped that the discipline they are
undergoing may work to their eternal welfare. Only one Mussulman
appears as yet on the roll of the church, but there are several who
give good evidence of a change of heart, and who will probably confess
Christ in the near future. The Sabbath-school numbers 150, with an
average attendance of 121, including many of the members of the
church. During the absence of the Shah in Europe many of the
soldiers were off duty and attended worship during the summer in large
numbers. The report mentions with gratitude that entire freedom has
been enjoyed in proclaiming the Gospel both in public and pri-
Digitized by VjOOQIC
1^2 EASTERN PERSIA— HAMADAN. .
i^ate, and that Moslems have attended these services without interfer-
ence.
Mr. Hawkes has preached statedly in the Jewish quarter on Satur-
day evening, the Jewish Sabbath, and has also given brief expository
lectures on the lesson at the close of the Sunday-school service which
is held Sunday morning.
Educational, — ^The want of uniformity in language is a serious hin-
drance to this branch of the work, as it also is to the direct proclamation
of the Gospel. At the close of the Boyi High-School on July i6th, ex-
ercises were held in Arabic, Persian, Chaldee, Armenian, and English.
Eighty-four pupils have been enrolled, with an average attendance of
60, 8 being in the boarding department. Eleven of these were re-
ceived from the Faith Hubbard School, having become too large to be
associated with the girls. Of the number enrolled, 21 are Armenians,
7 Mussulmans, and the rest Jews. It is worthy of note, as indicating
growing favor on the part of the authorities, that the grandson of the
present Governor, who has been a private pupil of the mission since
April, 1889, has taken his place as a scholar in the school. The
Governor is one of the fifty sons of Fet Ali Shah, and has been a warm
friend of the mission during his term of office. It is in this school
that Mr. Hawkes holds the preaching service in the Jewish quarter,
already referred to, and where a Sabbath-school of 30 is conducted
under the superintendency of Dr. Alexander.
The Faith Hubbard School opened with 83 names enrolled, of
whom '^i were boarders. The system of early marriages and of with-
drawing girls from school for other reasons, has made it necessary to
insist that all girls received into the school shall remain until they are
at least sixteen years of age. The report from the pen of Miss C. G.
Montgomery says : " Our family now numbers 48 (including teachers
and servants). We say family^ for this cannot be simply a boarding-
school as the name is generally understood. We try to give them the
home training so sadly lacking in this land, and to take on ourselves
the responsibilities their parents do not assume, indeed do not even
realize. Receiving them all as given us by God to be trained for' Him,
knowing that for each one we must give account, the burden of so
many souls is not a light one." As intimated elsewhere, the cholera
found its way into the school, claiming one of the pupils as its victim.
This led to the closing of the school for a number of weeks, but on
reopening it was found that most of the pupils returned.
The boys' Saturday morning prayer-meeting has been continued with
great success, and has widened its circle of influence, including now
not only the boarders in the house, but a number of the day scholars,
who attend the high-school, making 30 who came to the services
regularly. Grateful mention is made of the only Moslem girl in the
school, who when she entered was a sincere follower of the false
prophet, with all the characteristic hatred, of the Mohammedan toward
the name of Christian ; now she has expressed a wish to be baptized
and to be enrolled as a follower of Christ, and her life gives good
evidence of the change which she professes. In addition to the three
mentioned elsewhere as having confessed Christ during the year, 12 of
Digitized by VjOOQIC
.feASTERN PERSIA — HAMAD AN. 1 83
the girls of this school have united with the church since the report
was prepared.
The school in the Jewish quarter for girls, begun by Mrs. Alexander
six years ago, has continued with varying success, the illness of teach-
ers or the outbursts of fanaticism on the part of the people operating
against it In addition to instruction in Persian and Hebrew the chil-
dren'have been taught to sew and knit, substantial accomplishments ot
which the Jewish women know but little. At the Christmas exam-
ination of the Faith Hubbard School a class of Jewish girls was taken
to the Armenian quarter to be examined and receive the usual gifts.
This gave great offense to the Jews, and the girls were at once taken
from the school, so that it became necessary to close it for several
weeks. Just before the appearance of the cholera in November the
school had been reopened with a roll of 25.
The woik among the women has been prosecuted with encourage-
ment during the year. The women's prayer-meeting, which has been
sustained for seven years, had an attendance of about 50 girls and
women, the number of Armenian women being much larger than last
year, with a good attendance of Moslem women. Mrs. Hawkes and
Mrs. Alexander conducted a prayer- meeting for women in the Jewish
quarter some two months until the women were forbidden to attend by
their husbands, through the interference of an impostor. These two
ladies have also done much house-to-house visiting in company with
their husbands, and all the ladies of the mission have followed the
custom of calling at certain seasons of the year, and in this way have
done something toward the breaking down of prejudice and the opening
of the way for the Gospel.
Daily services were held for the girls and women during the second
week of November, the time designated by the General Assembly for
Simultaneous Meetings. Miss Montgomery has continued her class of
young men and boys, which has afforded her many precious oppor-
tunities for speaking a word for Christ.
Medical, — Dr. Alexander reports a total of 6,000 patients treated dur-
ing the year, fully one-half of them being from the villages around Hama-
dan, varying in distance from two hours to three or four days. The doc-
tor says : " I find our best work is among those who come from without
the city. They take the medicine with less trouble and listen better
to the Gospel."
The most pressing need is felt for larger accommodations. The
present waiting-room, where most of the patients are seen, is not large
enough for holding religious services while the physician is busy with
his work. For lack of better accommodation during the summer sev-
eral patients turned the doctor's yard into a hospital, the weather being
warm and dry. The report says : ** They did very well — indeed better
than most patients who have respectable homes, for here we could
give them the medicines as they required, and keep their friends from
spoiling our work, and it was very much easier to tell them about the
Saviour than those who came during the rush of the mornings." Med-
ical work has been extended to the village of Sheverine, near the city,
the physician spending two afternoons a week in a branch dispensary.

Dr. Alexander also made frequent visits to Bahare, a town some six or
eight miles from Hamadan, with a population of about 6,000. During
the summer he and Mrs. Alexander made several visits to Kurzara, a
village 28 miles east of the city. A medical tour was also made to
Sultanabad, a place of 20,000 inhabitants, and, by special invita-
tion of the Amir, to Kinnanshah to consult with the physician of that
official. The doctor remained there nine days, and although his
patient died, he has found in the son, who has succeeded his father, a
warm friend. Mirza Said and Mirza Yakob, medical assistants, made
an extended tour among the villages during the year. They took with
them two boxes, one filled with Bibles and the other with medicines.
As the tour was made in the winter season when there was deep snow,
it was found difficult to go from village to village. The need of a
hospital grows more imperative as the months go by. The amount
asked for this purpose by Dr. Alexander is modest, amounting to about
$2,000, It is earnestly hoped that the Board may be able to nijeet
this demand, or that some friend of medical missions will count it a
privilege to furnish the means for the equipment so essential to effective
service for Christ.

The working force of the mission has been greatly weakened by the
removal of a number of workers, and their places only partially filled
by new recruits with limited experience in mission work ; still there is
much of interest to report.
Again, at the opening of the new year, the staff of missionary workers
has been sadly decreased. Rev. and Mrs. Berger, owing to continued
fever almost from their arrival on the field, have been compelled to
withdraw. Mrs. Wachter and Mrs. Hays, through trying sickness,
have had to take leaves of absence. Dr. Paddock has also withdrawn
from the work. This weakening of the staff of missionaries makes an
irresistible appeal to others to join this very needy and attractive field.
The present small force will be unable to endure that enervating
climate and accomplish the great amount of work that is laid upon
them.
Ratburee Station,
We are glad to report that the third mission station of Siam was
founded during the year at the city of Ratburee. Dr. and Mrs. Thomp-
son and Rev. Chas. Eckels, accompanied by the native preacher, Lien
Soo, on August 2d took possession of the property granted by the
Siamese Government. Through the Providence of God this new
station was started, and a comfortable brick dwelling occupied, at a
cost to the mission of less than $500.
Rev. Charles Eckels writes that " the first attempt at holding a pub-
lic religious service was on Sabbath, August nth. Dr. Thompson
and a native preacher have held services every Sabbath since in the
room used as a dispensary. The native helper has also been sent to
preach several times at Bang Pa, at the home of Mee Same, Bible-

reader, in whose house Jive have a small school. A number of people
have come inquiring about * the new doctrine.' To these, as well as
to those coming for medical treatment, Dr. Thompson has proclaimed
the true God and Jesus Christ whom He hath sent.
"There seems to be a great desire on the part of the people
of the place to have a school established for their children. On
every hand we are met with the question : * When will it begin ? *
This, with the conditions under which the use of the place is granted,
has determined us to make an effort in this line as soon as possible
after the first of the year. Ratburee is now in postal and telegraphic
communication with Bangkok and Petchaburee. The station is a grand
centre for evangelistic work. We beg that God's people may continu-
ally make mention of it in their prayers. According to your faith be
it unto you."
Churches,
Bangkok, — Regular services have been kept up in the First and Sec-
ond churches of Bangkok. To the First church only four were added
during the year. There was no revival, but a painful indifference on
the part of many members was manifested by absenting themselves
from church services. Other departments of the work have pressed
so heavily upon the pastor that he has been unable to visit his people.
Their residences have been changed and so they could not be properly
cared for. For many years the pastor of the First church has thus
been unable to look after his widely-scattered flock. Owing to the
small number of missionaries, it has been almost a rule that the church,
printing-office, school, and all the secular work, falls to the care of one
man. The Sabbath-school of this church, although not large, is very
interesting, a number of the members serving as good, efficient teach,
ers. The women of the church, through the leadership of Mrs. Wach-
ter, were formed into a prayer and mission sewing-circle, working for
the missionary cause at large. The removal of the Christian training-
school to Sumray will no doubt enlarge the influence of this church.
While the past year has been one of many discouragements, yet when
we remember that this church has furnished the mission some of the
ablest and most consistent native preachers, colporteurs, and devoted
Christian school-teachers, we are encouraged, and believe that through
the blessing of God and the consecrated labors of His servants it will
yet become a much greater power for good.
In the Second church, Bangkok, Sabbath services, Sunday-school,
and daily morning services have been conducted throughout the year.
The services have for the greater part been conducted by Nai Nan,
a consecrated native preacher, who for more than 15 years has labored
zealously and wisely for the Master. He has given to the press some
of our best literature for general evangelistic work. At times we have
depended upon him to hold different stations, and he has not failed us.
For years he has labored for one-fifth the salary he could have com-
manded from European business houses. This year he requested the
mission to reduce his salary $1.20 per month. The mission replied
that while cognizant of the reasons which moved him to make this re-

quest, and his self-denial in doing so, they deemed it unwise for him
to make any greater sacrifice. Surely there is encouragement from
this case to put forth more earnest effort to raise up a native ministry,
and also labor that the power of the Gospel may be thus made mani.
fest in the lives of others.
Petchaburee, — There are five churches located in Petchaburee and
its Province. All the ordinary services have been sustained at the
Petchaburee church, as well as at the outposts. The preaching has
been done by Rev. W. G. McClure and three native licentiates. One
of the latter was not engaged during the last five months. " The conduct
of the native helpers has in some instances not been all that could be de-
sired, yet they did much good work. The attendance at Petchaburee has
been fairly good ; at the other churches, painfully small, partly because
we have not been able to look after them properly. Discipline has
been administered in several cases, and it has become necessary to
seriously consider suitable modes of dealing wisely and justly with
evils natural to the Siamese, but which, if not counteracted, must work
great harm to the churches." There have been but two accessions
during the year ; others applying were placed on probation. Contri-
butions from the churches were $82.55 ; ^^ox\\ Sabbath- school, $22.50 ;
Women's Missionary Society, $22.05; Christmas offering, $32.86.
Of the missionary society connected with this church Miss Cort
writes : ** The Women's Home and Foreign Missionary Society held
a number of popular meetings for the benefit of China, India, Africa,
Japan, Corea, Persia, and Syria. Next year we hope to reorganize
and include the whole church, men, women, and children, in our home
and foreign work." This church has suffered a great loss in the death
of " Pan Ang," who had been a consistent member for more than 22
years. Through the perusal of Christian books, he became a believer
before coming in contact with the missionaries. He was a man of in-
fluence in his village, and had the joy of seeing a son and daughter,
grandchildren, and other relatives embrace Christianity. He was a
man importunate in prayer. At times, when the villagers were given
up to noisy heathen ceremonies and drunken feasts, after protesting
against these evils, he would walk five miles to the mission compound
and request a quiet place in which to enjoy praying unto God. His
home was always open for religious service, and he earnestly urged
the villagers to come and hear the Gospel. He was a Bible student,
and in his declining years could repeat many precious stories of Bible
saints, and especially of the Saviour, which he had memorized before
the infirmities of age came upon him. His faith was unwavering to
the last, and he died rejoicing in the Saviour.
The Press.
This department of work has been under the superintendence of
Rev. E. Wachter. A new hand-cutting machine has been purchased.
Owing to the fact that the type are very old and worn there was a
decrease in the number of pages printed last year by 74,000. Should
the American Bible Society continue printing the Bible at our press,
the purchase of a new font will be necessary. The books have been

made more attractive by improvement in covers, and this in part
accounts for the steady increase in sales, which will be seen from the
following :
Pages Tracts Scriptures Total

1889 1,040,190 8,540 4,347 12,887
Before the year 1887 all books were given away ; but the American
Bible Society and the Siam Mission joined in inaugurating a new sys-
tem, viz., the selling of books at a nominal price. This plan has in-
creased the efficiency of our colporteurs, and has not decreased materi-
ally the distribution of books. It has secured a greater number of inter-
ested readers, and better care of the books disposed of. The receipts
from sales have been sufficient to pay expenses of colporteur work
and leave a small balance for printing. The mission are rejoiced at
the arrival of Rev. John Carrington and family, agent of the American
Bible Society, among them. They will, no doubt, do true missionary
work, although not members of our mission. Mr. Carrington will
take charge of the Bible work in Siam. A permanent committee to
examine MSS. and suggest matter new and old for publication has
been appointed. The mission repeats its urgent request " that the
Board seriously consider the matter of sending out a layman to man-
age the business of the press and kindred work — a consecrated Chris-
tian, with good business qualifications and knowledge of printing.'' An
additional press is urgently asked for and greatly needed. Mission-
aries were the pioneer printers in Siam. Now, presses, native and for-
eign,, are multiplying, publishing reading matter of all kinds, save
religious^ and much that is positively injurious, being vile to the ex-
treme, whilst ours is the only press exclusively a fountain of evangel,
ical truth. Its efficiency should be so increased as to make it a mighty
power in publishing a knowledge of the Saviour and in guiding aright
the seeker after the pure truth.
Itinerating, — ^The lack of men and inexperience of those in the field
have, in a measure, compelled neglect of this very important part of the
work. There are large districts of Siam as yet unreached by the preach-
er of the Word. There are multitudes who do not know even the name
of our Redeemer. We should have men who, able to deny themselves
the comforts of home, would devote their energies wholly to this work.
Bangkok is a grand centre for the itinerant missionary. One man
could be kept busy on each of the four large rivers. The east and the
west coast each needs a missionary. *' Natives of the west coast
have sought missionaries at Petchaburee and urged them to go and
teach on that coast, but their hands were too full at the station.''
There is great need at Petchaburee of an ordained missionary to take up
this branch of the work. Rev, A. Willard Cooper has been reappointed
for this station, to return there this autumn. Other appointments are
under consideration. Miss Cort writes that she '* has made fourteen
tours during the year to the villages in the Petchaburee District, hold-
ing services everywhere, sometimes spending two or three days teach-

ing, conducting women's meetings and bun day-schools, etc. I find
this hard but pleasant work, and again ask for a helper to go out with
me." The mission joins in this request that two young ladies be sent
to Petchaburee ; then Miss Cort can give herself more fully to work
among the women, a work for which she longs. Miss Cooper is
already under appointment to go out with her brother. The mission-
aries at Ratburee have taken one tour along the Meekling River, reach-
ing one large town and several villages, doing medical and colporteur
work, and were accompanied by a native preacher. They disposed
of many books, and report that '* the people seemed kindly disposed
and ready to buy both medicines and books." A greater part of the
itinerating has been carried on by the native colaborers. A faithful
colporteur has been engaged all the year in and about Bangkok. The
report says : " He has done excellent work ; was conscientious in the
use of his time and opportunities. He taught much, and sold several
thousand copies of books in the country." Another layman, who has
written several able and popular tracts (contributing the same to the
cause), has also made good use of opportunities for teaching, especially
the higher class of Siamese. In his business he travels extensively.
His literary work and teaching are given freely. Two earnest colpor-
teurs from Petchaburee have also gone far and near. During one tour
they taught and disposed of books, in sixty villages. Another, a stu-
dent for the ministry, has labored along the west coast of Siam,
chiefly in his native province, 500 miles southwest of Petchaburee, a
province of 230,000 male adults. Only by reinforcing the mission can
this great work of itinerating be effectually carried on.
Educational Work.
Bangkok, — ^This branch of the work is believed now to be on a better
basis than at any time in the history of the mission. This is partly ow-
ing to the increased number devoted to educational work, and partly to
the establishment of the Christian Training-school, the purpose of
which is best expressed in Rev. J. A. Eakin's report of the Christian
High-School : ** We plan to make the school not only the nursery of
the church, but also the place of training for workers in the church.
It is expected hereafter to have all the schools under the care of the
mission parts of one system, mutually helping each other, the schools
at the outstations sending students to the High-School and the High-
School sending out teachers and candidates for the ministry, to be
trained under the immediate care and oversight of the missionaries in
the practical work at the outstations. By this means, with the divine
blessing, we hope to be able to train up in time an aggressive and
reliable native ministry." By action of the mission the boarding de-
partnient of the boys' school at Sumray was transferred to the Chris-
tian High-School. This change brought twenty boys to the school.
There was an encouraging religious interest among the pupils during
the year. The students have been diligent in committing Scripture
verses and catechism. The Christian High-School will be removed to
Sumray. ** By this move a close and more vital connection will be
established between the church and school."

SIAM— EDUCATIONAL. I9I
The transferring of the boarding department of the boys' school to
the High-School and making Sumray a day-school did not diminish
the attendance, fifty- five boys being enrolled as day pupils. " The
native teacher was faithful' to his duties and did good work in the
school. Being an earnest Christian he conducted prayers at the
opening of the school daily, and used his influence to induce the boys
to attend Sunday-school and church services. He deserves high
praise, and the successful working of the school is chiefly due to his
efforts. We have endeavored to work up the school toward the point
of self-support by requiring a small tuition fee. By this means the
expense of each pupil, in excess of tuition fees received, has been
$1.80 for the year. This includes teacher's salary and all incidentals.
The pupils bought their own books and school materials."
.Girls* Boarding' School at Bangkok. — This school has been doing
good work in all departments. Miss Edna Cole gives the following
interesting statement in her annual report :
*' In July a little princess, daughter of the king's brother, was added
to our family for a term of three years. Then followed several other
children from noble families. The school now numbers forty-eight,
and for the past three months has averaged forty-four.
" A kitchen and dining-room have been erected, with very little ex-
pense to the Board. The money was principally furnished by the
sewing department, and special contributions from a few friends. The
sewing department has been unusually industrious and successful.
Without the money obtained by it we must have closed the year in
debt. The proceeds of the bazar held at the Royal Garden, December
4th, were nearly $200, while the income from school work durif^g the
year was more than $300. Only those who have superintended such
a department can fully appreciate the labor involved in planning and
carr>ing it all out to a successful issue.
" One fact deserves note. The Board's appropriation for this school
is $525. The food alone costs $495. This leaves but $30 for salaries
of Siamese instructors, servants' wages, and all incidental expenses !
And yet the kitchen and dining-room were built, and no debt incurred,
for which profound gratitude is felt." • •
The Sunday-school ip this institution sends ^^15 as a Christmas offer-
ing to the Board.
The mission desires to make this a first-class seminary. This end
will involve sending two or three young ladies to be associated with
Miss Cole. A committee was appointed to consider the propriety of
making Wang-Lang exclusively a station for work for women and girls.
Educational Work at Petchaburee, — Miss Cort has had charge of
twelve day-schools, with an enrollment of 232 pupils. Three of these
schools were organized during the year, one at Paktalay, where there
is a church. The purpose is to try to open a school for each church.
These twelve' schools are located in the city of Petchaburee, and in the
villages of the province. The day-schools have been visited regularly,
and religious services held in them, the audiences varying from ten to
eighty. Mr. McCIure writes: "These schools are undoubtedly doing
a good work, though but little compared with the great need."

192 SIAM — MEr)ICAL.
The Boys' Boarding-School and the Howard Industrial School for
Girls have been under Miss Small's care. Twenty-eight boys were
enrolled in the boys' school. Three were sons of the Governor of
Petchaburee. Three promising boys have* been sent to the Christian
High-School, Bangkok. The oldest pupil has entered the hospital at
Petchaburee to study medicine. He with one of the other boys declared
their faith in Jesus, applied for church membership, and were placed
on probation. This school has been placed under Prof. £akin*s care,
and will be a feeder to the Christian High-School, Bangkok.
The Howard Jtidustrial School. — Thirty-seven girls were enrolled ;
twenty-six of them were boarders. A new dming-hall and kitchen were
built, and new furniture, maps, globe, and sewing-machine were placed
in the school-room. Two of the girls applied for church membership,
and were placed on probation. The girls have been studious, and ha\e
improved in their manners. A Band of King's Daughters was organized
in the school. Some of the Band — ^bright young Christians— joined M iss
Small in going from house to house teaching the precious things con-
cerning Jesus. Frequent visits were made to the Governor's home in
order to read and explain the Word to his daughters, who were once in
the school. Miss Small writes as follows : '* Miss Cort and 1 have room
in our hearts and home for more workers, and we hope to see them
soon. Siam needs many more earnest workers."
Training Department for Teachers and Bible-workers. — Miss Cort
spent five months of the year doing all the teaching in this depart-
ment. Twelve married women were enrolled. The studies were in
the Bible. " Evidences of Christianity," Shorter Catechism, names of
our Lord, a poetic Life of Christ, ** Pilgrim's Progress," and practice in
telling Bible-stories. One aim of this department is, as Miss Cort
says, *'To give teaching a more honorable and desirable position in
church work. As these women all earn their own living, I had to grant
them a small allowance for their time. The entire expense of the
training department has been $34.62. When one poor woman re-
ceived her portion she returned one-third of it, saying : * I will con-
secrate it to God.' The pupils in all the schools joined in celebrat-
ing Christmas ; each one brought an offering — some brought money,
others fruit, eggs, and rice. We need hardly assure you that all our
schools are thoroughly evangelistic, the Bible being the chief book in
use."
Medical Work,
Bangkok, — The Bangkok Hospital and the Mission Dispensary have
been under the care of Dr. Hays, ably assisted by Mrs. Hays and a native
Christian physician. The Hospital has been largely supported by the
King of Siam, and, owing to the liberal aid of a Siamese general, the
Dispensary has had no rent to pay. The latter has been a feeder to
the Hospital, and a means of furnishing funds for carrying on the
medical work. The report shows that the medicines sold were three
times the value of those sold in 1888. While there has been some
decrease in the number of patients treated at the Dispensary, this has
been more than compensated by an increase of 60 per cent, in the
Digitized by VjOOQIC
SIAM— MEDICAL. I93
9umber of patients treated at the Bangkok Hospital. The whole
number of patients treated during the year is 8,603. The Hospital
has grown in favor with both the European and native community.
"The wards furnish a grand field for Christian effort. The poor
people are sick and sad and lonely, and welcome, oh ! so heartily,
every visitor, and are ready, to listen and ponder over everything told
them. As one poor fellow said to the missionary : * Every day you
come to see nie my heart grows so big (spreading out his hand) ; but
when there is a day you do not come my heart is as little as that '
(putting the tips of his fingers together)." The evangelistic work car-
ried on in the wards has been done by Dr. and Mrs. Hays alone.
Daily morning service has been held in the Hospital, and preaching
services every Sabbath, which the missionaries, with Dr. McFarland
and Mrs. Ed. McFarland and the native preachers, have conducted.
Dr. Hays writes : **We again entreat that this grand field may not be
left in the hands of myself and wife another y6ar, but that we may have
help, so that every opportunity for preaching Christ may be embraced."
The number of patients treated at the mission Dispensary is 2,830 ;
and at Bangkok Hospital, 5,773.
It will be well at this point to mentionlwo things : (i). Through Dr.
Hays' influence the Siamese Government is sending six chos&n youth
to the United States to be educated in our medical science, and return
to practice and teach the same in Siam. Dr. Hays will make a flying
visit to the United States for the purpose of bringing the boys, the
entire expense to be borne by the Government. They will be placed
for the present under the care of Rev. Eugene P. Dunlap, who, on
account of his ill-health, is still detained in this country. While the
Siamese Government has educated a number ot youth in Europe, this
will be their first effort in this direction in this country. Great good
may result from this move.
(2). The Government of Siam has built two hospitals and a dispen-
sary in Bangkok ; one of these (the largest) is located just back of the
Wang Lang Station, the other in the heart of the city, not far from the
palace. These hospitals, together with other work in the same line,
have been offered by the Siamese Government to the care of our
medical missionary, Dr. Hays, all the expense of the work to be borne
by the Government, and no restrictions placed on teaching Christianity
in the hospitals. This, we believe, opens a wide door for evangelistic
work. And the mission, regarding the offer, resolved as follows:
"That the mission sanction Dr. Hays' proposal to enter the service
of the Siamese Government, he remaining in nominal connection with
the Siam mission and the Board." Although the Government is to
pay Dr. Hays a liberal salary, it is his own proposition to pay the same
over to the mission, retaining the ordinary salary of a medical mission-
ary. The Government also authorizes Dr. Hays to secure a medical
missionary to join him in the work. It would be well to have an or-
dained missionary free to work right along with the medical mission-
aries in this great city.
Petchaburee. — The medical work has continued as usual ; 4,327 pa-
tients were treated. Of these 659 were vaccinated. All classes h:n e

been treated from far and near. Among the patients was the ex^
Minister of Foreign Affairs and several of his family, the Governor
of Petchaburee and members of his family. The Governor has shown
much interest in the medical work, and has requested -that the doctor
take one of his sons a^ a medical student. The native student assist-
ant has done good work, not only in direct medical, but in spiritual
work as well. One new student was also taken under instruction. He
is very promising, and is also deeply interested in the Christian religion.
He applied for church membership. Regular evening services have
been held in the Hospital daily, conducted either by a native preacher
or the first assistant in the Hospital, and the patients have always been
requested to attend all services in the chapel. One indoor patient
united with the church. The indebtedness of the Hospital has been
discharged, and a small balance left in the treasury. Owing to Dt,
Paddock's return to this country, there is imperative need of a medical
missionary at the station: >
Mr. McClure writes : " The interest of our work requires the con-
stant presence of a medical missionary, especially since we have a
hospital and dispensary well established ; and then it is never safe for
a company of missionaries t<f remain without a- physician. Twenty-
four to forty-eight hours would be required to get a physician from one
of the other stations, even under the most favorable circumstances."
Ratburee. — It is a pleasure to present the first report from this new
station. Dr. Thompson says : " We began Our regular medical work
here August 17th ; 116 cases have been treated at the station, and a
good number of patients treated in their homes. A tour was also
taken along the Meekling River, during which 109 cases were treated."
While waiting to enter the house at Ratburee Dr. I'hompson labored
in Bangkok, treating 233 new cases and making 167 outvisits ; whole
number of new cases is 458 and of old cases is 471. The beginning
of medical work at Ratburee is promising. " We have aimed to give
at least a word of Gospel truth to each patient, and a small tract
which has been prepared for the purpose. Our building was put in
good sanitary condition ; one of the lower rooms has been fitted for a
dispensary s^nd another for in-patients." Dr. Thompson further adds :
" When we have become fully settled we hope that the evangelistic
will be the most prominent feature of our work. The people at Rat-
buree are easily accessible, and for the most part welcome our coming.
Our closing word is that we have been permitted to spend some most
delightful hours in telling the old, old story. May the Holy Ghost
water the seed sown ! "
, Conclusion,
There is scarcely a field in which our Church i^ hboring where
the missionary has greater liberty. It is fully open to aggressive
work for the Master; missionaries are excluded from no part of
the land. One of them writes that when about to take a tour in
provinces before unreached, the Prime Minister of Siam voluntarily
gave him a letter, bearing the Government seal, to the Governors of
the several provinces through which he expected to travel. The letter

was about as follows : " The bearer of this letter is an American mis-
sionary going down through your several provinces for the purpose of
teaching the Christian religion, disposing of Christian literature, and
healing the sick. Place no obstacle in his way. If the people wish
to adopt his teachings or receive his books, forbid them not. Permit
him to pass easily through your provinces, and, in so far as you can,
minister to the comfort of his family journeying with him."
Rev. Mr. McClure writes as follows : " The doors here, and indeed
in all parts of Siam, are wide open. Who will enter in and occupy ? '

MISSION IN SOUTH AMERICA.
Mission in the Republic of Colombia.
Bogota : the capital of the country ; situated on an elevated plain ; 4* north latitude ;
climate, temperate ; population about 90,000 ; elevation about 900 feet ; occupied as a
mission station in 18^6 ; missionary laborers — Rev. and Mrs. M. E. Caldwell, Miss Maria
B. Franks ; four native teachers ; one native helper.
Barranquilla (Bar-ran-keel-ya) : near the northern seacoast at the mouth of the
Magdalena River ; 12* N. ; occupied as a station in May, x883 ; missionaries— Rev. and
Mrs. T. H. Candor ; population, 30,000.
Medellin : population, 50,000 ; occupied October, 1889 ; situated on tableland at
an elevation of 5,000 feet, between the two great rivers Magdalena and Canda, ten days
north of Bogota ; missionaries. Rev. and Mrs. J. G. Touzeau ; i native helper. ,
The Republic of Colombia contains about 2,500,000 population. It
lies between the equator and 1 2 degrees north latitude, and is the point
of contact with North America, joined to it by the Isthmus of Panama.
The waters of the Pacific wash its western shores and its great rivers
empty into the Caribbean Sea on the north. Its three stations are
(i) Bogota, the Mountain Capital; (2) Barranquilla (Bar-ran-keel-ya),
the northern seaport ; (3) Medellin^ on the tableland between the
other two stations. The language is Spanish. The religion of the
people is Roman Catholic, which is held in rather light esteem by
some, while by the large majority it is held in its most corrupt form —
sometimes scarcely bearing any semblance of Christian faith. The
more intelligent are driven by the corrupt teachings of their religious
leaders into infidelity. The missionaries find the people generally
ready to listen to the truth, and confident hope is expressed that the
present beginnings of work will speedily grow into grand and symmet-
rical proportions.
Bogota.
The work in this station has been subject to changes and sore dis-
appointment. Rev. and Mrs. J. G. Touzeau occupied it for seven
months of the year, until the arrival in August of Rev. and Mrs. Cald-
well. Miss M. B. Franks continued her labors in the school for girls
through the year. The cloud of sorrow that came upon Bogota came
in like manner on Barranquilla. When Mr. Caldwell and family re-
turned from the United States of America in August, 1889, they were
accompanied by greatly needed reinforcements for Bogota and Bar-
ranquilla— Prof. W. W. Findley and Miss Addie C. Ramsay. On
their way both the new missionaries, Prof. Findley and Miss Ramsay,
were exposed to the contagion of yellow fever. They arrived in Bar-
ranquilla August 13th. The dreaded disease attacked Miss Ramsay
in the home of her sister, Mrs. Candor, August 14th, and she died on

the 19th. On the 15th Prof. Findley was prostrated by the same dis-
ease the day he had started with Mr. Caldwell and family on their
journey up the Magdalena River on their way to Bogota. On the
2xst, just two days after Miss Ramsay's death, Mr. Caldwell laid the
fever.stricken body to rest on the banks of the stream, at the Port of
Sogamoso.. before he had reached the end of his journey. It was a
sad day for the missionary who had waited nine years for this associate
in his work. Prof. Findley was specially fitted for the work to which
he had consecrated himself. It is a mysterious providence that this
young man's life should have ended just as he was about to enter upon
his labors. The loud call for some one to take his place has not been
unheeded, and it is expected that another missionary will go dunng
this summer to take charge of the .work that has so long waited for
him. Mr. Caldwell continued his sad journey up the river and over
the mountains to a disappointed people in Bogota. Soon after that
Mr. and Mrs. Touzeau set out for Medellin, their new station, leaving
Mr. Caldwell alone to care for both school and church work.
School Work. — Miss Franks was engaged during the greater part of
the year in her school for girls with her usual degree of success. By
previous arrangement she was to remove to Barranquilla as soon as
her successor could be secured. It is greatly to be regretted that her
health was such that she was obliged to hasten her departure early in
the new year. This made it necessary for Mr. Caldwell to close the
boarding department until another lady can be sent out. It is urged
with good reason that two ladies should go to this important centre,
not only to aid one another, but that in the trying climate at this high
elevation a change when required may be obtafned without interrupt-
ing the work of the school. It is believed that this will be the more
economical plan. Mr. Caldwell, in speaking of the girls* school, says
that " good music is highly appreciated. Many people are attracted
by the service of song. Bogota is sometimes called the city of pianos."
These Heavy instruments must be carried on men's shoulders sixty
miles over rough mountain roads ! Their own songs are weird and
doleful, and yet they are glad to hear our bright tunes in hymns of
praise. The pupils who go out from the school carry their religious
instruction home with them. When Mr. Caldwell was in Honda on a
tour, he found a pupil who in the institution had not come out on the
Lord's side. But there in her home she had her Bible and gathered
all the family to attend prayers with the missionary, herself joining in
them. New openings for the Gospel are sometimes made in this
way.
Church Work. — The congregations are large and encouraging, more
of the artisan class are coming to the services, and there is an especial
increase in the attendance of women. '^Some are always asking
admission to the membership of the church."
"Alejandro Gonzalez has been a constant and very -^'aluable helper
during the past year. Oftentimes he has conducted the services of the
church. He has sold many Bibles and other good books, and shows
great zeal, patience, and perseverance as well as economy in trying to
prepare himself for the ministry. He now expects, besides other
Digitized by VjOOQIC

mission work, to lielp in the Boys' School, and at the same time to
study with Mr. Caldwell."
**The Boys' School has opened with more than 60 pupils, and with
liberal help would soon become, we think, a grand success. All the
pupils enter the Bible-classes, and the Gospel is preached to them
daily. There are about 50 little boys in one Bible-class, and we are
sure that if the Christian people could see these bright faces, at times
almost spellbound, with their eyes fixed on the minister, as he tells
them Bible stories and talks to them about the Word of Life, a deeper
interest would be taken in this school."
While there is nominal freedom of conscience, the Government is in
the hands of the Jesuits. The presence of evangelical missionaries is
simply tolerated because of treaties. There is neither freedom of
speech nor liberty of the press, and marriage is not legal unless per-
formed before a priest. A Protestant minister has no legal right to
marry his own people I
The sum of $295 has been contributed by the church.
Barranquilla,
The first mention of this station was in last year's report. There
has been no change in the number of missionaries stationed there.
The laborers are Rev. and Mrs. T. H. Capdor. The helpers employed
are Mr. Adam H. Erwin, Miss A. M. Duncan, and Miss Eugenia Des-
moineaux.
Schools, — Mr. A. H. Erwin, a gentleman of advancing years and
extended experience in the country, conducts an excellent boys' school
of 25 pupils. He receives $120 assistance from the mission. His
school-house has been used as a chapel. It is desirable to continue the
arrangement with Mr. Erwin and also hire an assistant teacher for
$120, and thus be able to receive a larger number of pupils, and by so
much increase the influence of the school.
The Girls' School has been under the care of Mrs. Candor. Thirty
pupils are on the rolls. Early in the year epidemic measles seri-
ously interfered with work among children. Few houses escaped the
disease in its deadly form. The school was obliged to close its doors
for a short time in May.
The last annual report speaks of the appointment of Miss Addie C.
Ramsay, as promised, to aid Mrs. Candor in the Girls' School. This
report records with great sorrow her early death so soon after her
arrival at her sister's home. The disease from which she died, yellow
fever, rendered it necessary to close the school again. Profound
gratitude is felt because no one took the dreaded fever. Mr. Candor,
in speaking of her death, says : " It seems a very strange providence,
but faith does not ask an all- wise Father the reason why." Her death
produced a profound impression in Barranquilla. The influence of it ^
in our country is still felt. It was expected that a suitable building
would be selected for the Girls' School, in which she was to teach.
Now, however, it is proposed to build a memorial school called by her
name. The Woman's Board of Philadelphia has appropriated $1,000
for this purpose^ and our Board has appropriated $2,000 toward it,
Digitized by VjOOQIC
200 COLOMBIA — MEDELLIN.
guaranteeing $2,000 more in the new year to complete the required
sum of $5,000 for this purpose. It is confidently expected that the
pledged $2,000 will be given by tho^e whose hearts were so touched by
the sad termination of Miss Ramsay's life. The need of another lady
to take her place is strongly felt, and it is regarded as imperative that
some one be sent as soon as possible.
The school was resumed in October, and successfully carried on
through the term. . The fees collected more than paid for the current
expenses. Miss Duncan, the assistant teacher, a member of the
church, was born in Barranquilla. She will continue her services. A
larger attendance is promised another year.
The Charity School has been under the care of an efficient native,
Miss Eugenia Desmoineaux. The very poor have free instruction
here, and are taught the Gospel of Jesus Christ. There is good ground
for expecting that a great blessing will follow the work of these two
schools, and that they will be nurseries for the church.
Church Work, — The Barranquilla church was organized January 5,
1889. Sixteen members were received during the year out of twenty-
eight applicants. Three elders were ordained and three deacons set
apart for their duties.
Regular services were held at Mr. Candor's house and Mr. Erwin's
school-room during the whole year, with an attendance varying from
20 to 100. Two Sunday-schools were also maintained, with about
40 pupils. The utter disregard of the people for the Lord's day makes
it difficult as yet to secure very regular attendance. It is pleasant,
however, to know that there is a growing interest which is full of
encouragement. Mr. Candor says : " In the earnestness of the people
as well as in their friendly actions, we see a higher hand than ours that
can insure success."
Evangelistic Work. — Mr. Candor was greatly hindered in his pur-
pose to itinerate outside the city. The deadly epidemic, the sad
affliction of the mission, and the failure to gain reinforcements, have
kept him closely confined to work in the city. People who have come
from the country to the services are very earnest in their desire to have
churches organized in their towns. One of the elders is a promising
candidate for a native helper, and will be taught and tried in evan-
gelistic work. The surrounding towns and villages are an attractive
field for the station to cultivate, and promises good returns.
Meddlin,
This new station is an important mterior city, wmcn was occupied
for the first time in October, 1889, by Rev. and Mrs. J. G. Touzeau.
It is the second city of Colombia in importance and in population.
It contains a government mint. It is the centre of a large mining
region. The people are called the Yankees of their country, and
though they were reported to be unusually bigoted, yet no opposition
was offered to the missionary. He secured a house and has held reg-
ular services in it. The people have shown much interest in the new
teaching, and have purchased many of his books and tracts. As the

prejudice of the people is broken down, the way for the Gospel will be
opened, and blessed results may be expected.
Mr. Touzeau reports his sales of Gospel literature : Total number of
books and tracts sold, 1,355 ; given away, 1,350.

The importance of the work done by the Syria Mission is not to be
measured by the comparatively small geographical area of the country
nor by the number of its population. Its influence extends far beyond
its borders, and, in some respects, can only be limited by the wide
extent of the Arabic language. The staff of missionaries has been
subject to several changes. Rev. J. S. Dennis, D.D., and Mrs. Den-
nis, and Miss Eliza D. Everett returned to their work in Beirut. Rev.
O. J. Hardin was reappointed (after spending a few weeks in this
country), and returned in October to take up work in the Abeih Sta-
tion, including the charge of the Boys' Board ing-School at Suk-el-
Ghurb. He left Mrs. Hardin in this country to join him later. Mr.
and Mrs. W. Scott Watson are new recruits who joined the mission in
October and are associated with Mr. and Mrs. Hoskins. thus relieving
Mr. Ford from work in that station, to aid again Mr. W. K. Eddy, his
associate, who was bearing far too heavy burdens in the Sidon Station.
Dr. and Mrs. Harris returned early in the year to their work in Tripoli
Station and received a most cordial welcome. Rev. and Mrs. S.
Jessup returned to this country in July last, after an absence of sixteen
years. Rev. T. S. Pond and family returned also in July, after an ab-
sence of twenty-one years, the first five years of this period being
spent under the A. B. C. F. M. at Mardin.
The year's work has been much like that of the previous year in its
obstacles, its trials, its successes, and its joys. No great sorrow has
come upon the mission, but there have been many occasions for pro-
found gratitude.

SYRIA — BEIRUT. 203
The repressive measures of the Government have by no means
been prohibitory. The Lord's work continues to grow in influence
and pawer. There has been an advance all along the line, as will be
seen by the station reports and the statistical tables. While a few
schools are still closed bv the Government, the number of pupils re-
mains about the same. The additions lo thet church h^ve been 98.
The total membership has doubled in the past ten years. At the
opening of the new yeari about forty new candidates are asking admis-
sion to the church. There are many cheering indications that the
Gospel leaven is permeating the minds of the people of every sect,
including the Moslems.
The religion of the people is usually called by the Government
Moslem and non- Moslem. The first includes Orthodox and Persian
Mohammedans (Moslems and. Metawalies), Druzes, Nusaireeyehs and
Ismaileyehs, and all Bedaweie Arabs. Non-Moslems are Jews, nom-
inal Christians (Orthodox Greek, Papal Greek, Maronite [Papal],
Jacobite, Syrian, Armenian, and Latin Papists), and Evangelical
Christians. The principal accessions to the church have been from
the non-Moslem sects. Work among these is important. It aims to
give them a pure Gospel and to remove all ground for the well-merited
contempt in which nominal Christians are held by Moslems. This
has been so far successful that, first, the religion of Evangelical Chris-
tians is looked upon as a new religion and 16 respected by the non-
Christian sects ; second, the old sects are beginning decided reforms
in their churches ; and, third, the leaven of the Gospel is working
in a most interesting and marked manner among the Moslems, giving
the confident hope that the day is not far distant when a large number
of them may be brought to Christ. Earnest prayer is asked that free-
dom of conscience may be fully granted to all.
Beirut.
This is the central station of the mission. When our missionaries
first arrived, it was a small, closely packed city of about 6,000 inhabit-
ants. It has now grown to be nearly 100,000, and is the literary as
well as commercial centre of Syria.
Rev. Wm. M. Thomson, D.D., though spending the remainder of his
days in this country, is remembered with affectionate regard by large
numbers of Syrians, and is greatly missed in the councils of the mis-
sion.
Dr. Van Dyck has just celebrated his jubilee of missionary work.
On April 2, 1840, he reached Syria. The Turkish Government has
bestowed upon him a ** decoration " (the third order of the Majeedy),
for literary and scientific work, and humane services rendered to sub-
jects of the Sultan. The Syrians of all sects have united in presenting
him as a testimonial of their high appreciation of his services to their
country, the sum of $2,160. The amount was raised by voluntary
contributions. At the annual mission meeting in January, he pre-
sented a most interesting- and instructive paper on '* Early Remi-
niscences of the Mission."
The crowning joy of his fifty years is in the wonderful circulation of
Digitized by VjOOQIC
204 SYRIA— BEIRUT.
the Word of God, to ihe translation of which he gave so many years
of his Ufe. It is a joy that will increase as the years go on. The
report of his station says : "It is our earnest prayer that he way be
spared to afford to the mission the benefit of his great experience and
paternal counsel. May his last days be indeed his best days, and
may what- he now witnesses in the wide distribution of the Arabic
Scriptures, be to him a continual source of gratitude and comfort ! "
The Church, — ^The pastoral work of the Beirut church has been
carried on during the year by Rev. Yusef Bedr, acting as assistant to
the missionary in charge. Nineteen members have been added. One
of those baptized and received to the communion is a Bedawee Arab
of one of the great tribes. He spent the summer with his tribe in
their wanderings, reading to them the Scriptures in their black tents,
and telling them of the salvation through Christ. He was everywhere
welcomed, and his tribe found him so superior to them and so useful
from his knowledge of reading and writing, that they were unwilling to
have him leave them to resume his studies. He has, however, entered
one of our boarding-schools for further training. -He states that his
people were especially interested in the Psalms of David and the His-
torical Narratives of the Old and New Testaments.
The contributions of the native church during the year were about
$570, of which $160 was for the native pastor.
The five congregations which hear the Gospel regularly in Beirut
number in the aggregate about 820, and the Sunday-schools in con-
nection with our mission have 520 pupils. There are about 350 in
other Sunday-schools.
Wometi s Meetings, — The number of women's meetings has increased
considerably and the weekly attendance is about 300. From Mrs.
Dale's statement we learn that "the Ras Beirut Girls' and Boys*
Schools are in a prosperous condition. They were established ten
years ago/' On Sunday both boys and girls are in our Sunday-school.
Miss Van Dyck conducts the Women's Bible Class. There are five
native teachers besides Mrs. Dennis, Mrs. Dale, Mrs. Porter, Miss
Van Dyck, and Miss Post. The average weekly attendance is 1 14.
The week-day women's meetings average 84 in attendance, nearly
two-thirds of whom are Druzes. Other such meetings are held in dif-
ferent parts of the city, one of which is conducted most successfully in
the Eastern chapel by Mrs. Dale. As a result of interesting accounts
of the Aintab revival given by Dr. and Mrs. Graham, six neighborhood
meetings have been started in different parts of the city, conducted by
native Protestant women, and it is expected that this plan of work may
be still further extended.
The Theological Seminary. — The seminary was opened October
2 1 St with a class of seven students. It has now been located in Beirut
since 1873. ^^' Dennis says : " It was removed here from Abeih in
order to be in proximity to the college, and secure the advantages of
contact with the best and highest educational facilities which Beirut as
the literary centre of Syria affords. It was also thought that the exist-
ence of the seminary within the radius of college life and within the
view of college students would be itself a presentation of the claims
Digitized by VjOOQIC
Digitized by VjOOQIC
200 SYRIA— BEIRUT.
and opportunities of the ministry to the minds of the young men oi
Syria. The seminary building at one end of the college campus has
been useful in calling the attention of young men to the fact that the
medical exit at the other end is not the only door of usefulness which
opens to the college graduates. It is, no doubt, true that the Christian
young men who are receiving their education at Ras Beirut are led to
consider the call to the ministry as a possible fact by the visible re-
minder of a duty to the church and to the needy world which they
have in a theological seminary placed in such conspicuous and honored
relations to the college as a centre of intellectual activity and ad-
vanced culture. Medicine was hterally carrying the day with our edu-
cated young men until theology stepped upon the college campus, and
the fact that the last theological class were all college men gives at
least substantial encouragement that a certain proportion of our can-
didates for the minislry shall be from those trained in the college.
The present class has been selected with great care, and there is
reason to think that it represents the cream of the total list of appli-
cants. Since the location of the seminary in Beirut 52 students have
been in connection with it, some only for a short time. Of these, 39
students have gone forth for the work of the ministry. Of this num-
ber 22 are in the employ of our own mission, 13 are employed by
neighboring missions, three have left the ministry, and one has died."
" The second volume of the text-book in Systematic Theology
has been issued. A second edition of the first volume is now going
through the press. Dr. Eddy has also published the second part of
his Commentary on the New Testament. It is hoped that these
two volumes will prove an invaluable help to the Arabic-speaking
races in understandmg the Word of God in lands where this word has
so long be6n kept from the people, or presented to them overlaid and
commingled with a mass of superstitions, traditions, and fanciful and
erroneous interpretations."
. " Instruction is given at ppsent by Dr. Van Dyck in Natural The-
ology ; Dr. Eddy in New Testament Introduction and Exposition and
Mental Philosophy ; Dr. H. H. Jessup in Church History and Horai-
letics ; Dr. Dennis in Evidences, Theology, and Old Testament Expo-
sition ; Mr. Hourany in Harmony of the Gos|)els and Rhetoric."
Female Seminary, — The report of this institution is, in the words of
Miss Thomson, ** a record cf mercies ; of prayers answered ; of lives
preserved ; of the yoke made easy and the burden made light."
Grateful acknowledgment is made of the welqome. return of Miss
Everett, of the providential preservation from death of two teachers
who were on a roof when^it fell with them. There were 120 pupils in
the institution-, representing eight sects : Moslem, Dnize, Jew, Greek
Orthodox, Greek Papal, Maronite, Armenian, Protestant — " all folded
under the loving care of the Good Shepherd, all equally dear to Him,
all bought with the same great price, all taught with the story of His
redeeming love." Fifty-five of the pupils were boarders. The weekly
prayer-meetings and the noon hour of prayer were very well attended
and greatly enjoyed. The three graduates of the year are teaching in
the service of the mission. '^ The infirmities of age are appearing in
Digitized by VjOOQIC
SYRIA— BEIRUT. 20/
parts of the building, and it will require an expenditure of $800 to put
it in suitable repair."
The Press. — Substantial work has been done by the press during
the year. Mr. S. Jessup, on leaving Syria June 1 2tb, was succeeded
as mans^er by his brother. Dr. H. H. Jessup. About twenty volumes
of our Arabic publications were locked up in Damascus for two years
and the legal sanction for their sale withheld. Through the efficient
services of Consul E. Bissinger these were finally sent to Constantino-
ple, where, through the kindly proflFered aid of Rev. H. O. Dwight, of
the A. B. C. F. M., all were returned stamped with the Government
pernnt. Among them were some of our most important Arabic works,
such as Calhoun's Bible Hand-Book, Dr. Dennis' Systematic Theology,
his Evidences of Christianity, and his Biblical Interpretation, and Dr.
Eddy's Commentary on the New Testament. A new Board of Public
Instruction has been organized in Beirut, which has thus far done its
duty well in facilitating the examination and sanction of new books.
Several publications, which were once rejected by another council,
have been examined again and sanctioned. The Life of Livingstone,
however, is prohibited still on the ground of its giving an account of
missionary work in Africa, and it is claimed that Africa is a Moham-
medan country, and consequently it is prejudicial to the " public
peace " to publish an account of conversions to Christianity in Africa.
But there is reason for special gratitude because the Turkish Govern-
ment has sanctioned not only more than 25 different editions of the
Holy Scriptures, but more than 300 of our religious, educational, and
miscellaneous publications. Early in the year the Government noti-
fied all printing presses that they must obtain the Imperial permit or
close their doors. Accordingly the American press applied for the
legal permit, and on the 29th of May the manager obtained it on giv-
ing the usual guarantees of obedience to Ottoman law in all matters
pertaining to the publications of the press. The usual fee for a legal
permit was not required, on the ground that the existence of the
American press since 1834 constituted a permission on the part of the
Government. In July a number of English books belonging to various
members of the mission were confiscated by the Censor in the Custom
House. Only six were burned, and owing to strong representations
made by the manager of the press to the Government, thirty-two were
saved from the flames and exiled to the United States.
The record of the press during the year shows a large amount of
work done, though less than in 1888.
The whole number of pages printed was 24,569,167 as compared
with 28,722,968 in the previous year. The American Bible Society
published 12,638,918; London Religious Tract Society, 1,876,000;
Miscellaneous, 9,054,249; American Tract Society, 1,514,000.
The number of volumes printed is 52,203 ; publications of all kinds
issued in 1889 is 321,854.
The number of new books printed is 10 ; tracts, 14. Books re-
printed, II ; tracts reprinted, 21. Different editions of the Scriptures,
5 ; new additions to our catalogue — tracts, 14 ; books, 10 ; total, 24,
making the whole number of publications on the catalogue 404.

The stock of books, Scriptures, and tracts on hand December 31,
1889, 's as follows : Scriptures, 95,594, worth $20,676 ; Religious
Tract Society, 128,209, worth $7,000 ; American Tract Society and
Miscellaneous, 17,140, worth $44,178; total copies, 404,069, worth
$71,854. The total number of pages issued from the beginning is
418,407,354.
It is worthy of notice that the departments of work carried on by
the press are unusual in their variety. They are : making punches
and matrices, casting type, making electrotypes, stereotypes, and lith-
ographs ; map-making, composing, editing, printing, binding, jobwork,
selling. About fifty employees obtain good remunerative work in this
one establishment. They are not reckoned among the nearly 200 na-
tive helpers in the list of mission employees. There is no department
of this mission work that is more warmly supported by the missionaries
in every clime. Its publications are found in every continent. Many
special blessings have accompanied the pages that have been distrib-
uted, and great encouragement is found in following out the remarka-
ble influence exerted by these many millions of light-bearing and life-
giving messages.
The College^ — ^The Syrian Protestant College is a child of the Syrian
Mission. It was born of a strong desire to give a high Christian edu-
cation to the best minds and hearts in the East. Its president and
first instructors were chosen from members of the mission. Its board
of managers is made up principally of missionaries. There is thus a
constant and close bond of union between it and the mission. It is
looked upon as an indispensable part of our mission work and is
heartily commended to the earnest prayers of our whole Church. Sev-
eral changes have taken place in its corps of instructors. Dr. Dight
and Dr. Fisher, greatly to the regret of the college, felt compelled to
resign their posts and return to this country. Their places have been
supplied by the arrival of Dr. Harris Graham from the A. B. C. F. M.
in Turkey, and by the re-engagement of Rev. Dr. Wortabet. The
corps of instructors was further reinforced by the arrival of Rev. Dean
A. Walker and Mr. Alfred E. Day. Mr. R. H. Beattie completed a
four years' term of sifrvice and returned to this country to pursue his
theological studies.
The prosperity of the college is shown by its steadily increasing
number of pupils, notwithstanding strenuous efforts made by its oppo-
nents of other faiths to detract from its influence. There were in the
medical department 45 students; collegiate, 56; preparatory, 121.
This is a larger number than has ever before been on the college rolls.
The steadily growing influence of this institution on the country
through the graduates that go out from it is a source of great gratifi-
cation.
The Hospital of the Prussian Knights of St. John is still served by
the medical staff of the college. The indoor patients treated were
446 ; outdoor, 9,470. Its work of mercy is as highly appreciated as
ever, and its influence on the side of the Gospel of Christ is invalu-
able.
Dr. Jessup, in his station report, says : '' It gives us pleasure to re-

port that our excellent Consul, Mr. E. Bissinger, has been retained in
office by the Department of State, and that he has continued to promote
American interests with his usual wisdom and energy. At the close
of the year the Legation in Constantinople was urging anew the right
to reopen the school in Hamalh."
Sidon.
" Gratitude to God for an unbroken circle of workers, for health
continued and new mercies given, for dreaded dangers averted and
unseen perils escaped, is not a duty merely, but the outflow of hearts
full of thanksgiving." With these words Mr. Eddy begins his annual
report.
Rev, G. A. Ford, during the latter part of the year, shared again
with Rev. W. K. Eddy the burdens and the joys of the work at this sta-
tion. Misses R. M. and C. H. Brown have kept on faithfully and
successfully in their work in Sidon Seminary.
The Government has interfered directly with the work in only two
places, Mejdel and Ain Kunyeh. There the churches are still closed
and all instruction forbidden. Hopes are entertained that in the
providence of God these interdicts may be removed. Indirectly the
known hostile attitude of the Government has stimulated the zeal of
the enemies of the Gospel to many new efforts to impede its progress.
Attempts have been made to deprive Protestants of their legal status
before the law and refuse them the representatives in the courts hereto-
fore allowed them in common with other non-Moslem sects. The Mos-
lem authorities have kept such rigid watch over our schools and their
people, that they have diminished the number of Moslem pupils under
our care. It is believed that a reaction in our favor will erelong be
felt. The opposition of Romanists is increasingly active. In Saleheyeh
they engaged as their teacher a student from our college who had
been dismissed by the missionaries. The priest told the people that
as they had always leaned to Protestant morals and training he had
secured a teacher from our school and they would have no further ex-
cuse for using Protestant schools.
An incident of the work is thus related by Mr. Eddy :
" In Berta the drawing power of Gospel preaching may have been
frequently seen during the past year in the crowds collected about the
hired room. That few were inside, that the choir outside praised with
tin pans, that the collection thrown in was not taken up except to clear
the room, that it would enrich a geological cabinet rather than the
Lord's treasury, that the responses savored of the language of Ashdod,
that the iron gong at the door was stolen, and that the poor widow
woman who united with the church was beaten, — these are all little
incidents of the work there. To deter others from confessing their
faith in Christ a Protestant family there was made an example of. A
plot of land suitable for a house was seized by a priest, who proceeded
by main force to erect a building thereon. The owner is too poor to
engage in an expensive lawsuit, and so this parcel of land may keep
company with Naboth's vineyard."
A church member of Abara, falsely accused of murder, has been 1 7

months in prison withoot trial. It is well known to all the court that
he is innocent. But being poor he cannot obtain his freedom.
Female Seminary. — ^The report ispeaks at length of the first visit of
Mrs. Hoskins to the school where she as Miss Eddy taught so many
years, and of the happy reception accorded to her by pupils and friends.
During the summer vacation the girls were busy raising money for
their foreign mission band. They sent the proceeds to the City of
Mexico and were rejoicing in the quick return of notes of gratitude
from that field, and to know that it was the means of leading the Mex-
ican converts to " go and do likewise."
Six girls received their diplomas and after graduation took a special
course in normal instruction. All are engaged in evangelical work.
The primary object of the school was to train Protestant girls. A
Druze girl has, however, been enrolled among the boarders, and a
Moslem father asked admission for his daughter and is willing to pay
for her training. The day-school is made up of girls from all the sects^,
including Jew, Moslem, and Metawaly. A little benevolent society of
girls sent a few bushels of Sidon oranges to the Prussian Orphanage in
Beirut. Miss R. M. Brown adds to her report that " at the close of
the year a meeting for Moslem women was started, and between thirty
and forty have been enrolled. They gave good attention to Bible
stories, and so far have been most zealous in committing to memory
the Lord's prayer. This annex to the seminary we trust will change
the homes of many of the day pupils and thus be a real help and bless-
ing in the work. The teachers and pupils in the seminary have many
causes for thanksgiving, and not the least of them is the grant of
if 1, 500 by the Board for building the house in Judeideh for the ladies
$f Sidon station. As Judeideh, the village in which the house is to be
orected, is in easy nding distance from many villages where there are
eormer and present pupils and teachers of the seminary, the work will
continue during vacation, and with God*s blessing be to His glory.
* The Lord hath done great things for us, whereof we are glad.' "
Mr. Eddy says : " Equal encouragement comes from the Sidon
Academy^ with its 140 boys. Thirteen of the boarding pupils come
from Zahleh station and fourteen from Tripoli. A class of five gradu-
ated last summer, four of whom now have charge of schools. Of the
55 graduates 31 are engaged in teaching. Fifty pupils have been pre-
pared and sent to the college in Beirut. The pupils are from various
sects : 53 were Protestants, 55 Orthodox Greeks, 30 Papal Greeks, 14
Maronites, 8 Moslems, 8 Druzes. Three have entered the Theolog-
cal Seminary after having been tested by several years of faithful
teaching."
Lack of sufficient accommodations has compelled them to refuse
full boarding privileges to all new pupils. A reading-room and library
have been provided by renting a long vault, which, being well lighted
and fitted up, is a most useful place. Large donations of valuable
books were received from the Women's Society of Englewood and
from the late Dr. Hunt's library.
The church services have been very well attended and full of inter-
est More than 200 pupils attended the Sunday-school. Ten persons

were received into the church on profession of faith in Christ. There
is reason *' to hope for blessed results from the weekly gathering for
Christian women and the two large classes of Moslem women under
instruction." In Jezzeen the attendance of over loo pupils upon our
schools and the changed attitude of the people show how the noted
Maronite bigotry of that place may yet wholly disappear. In Meij
Aiyoon the death of the faithful helper, Ibrahim Yusef, is deeply felt.
It is hoped that his sons, now completing their education, may wear
the mantle so long worn by their father. In Judeideh the work con-
tinues uninterrupted, with 330 pupils. In Alma seven have united
with the church. In nearly all the outstations the record of the year
has been that of quiet fruitful work. Twenty-six have been added to
the eleven churches of the station. There are 1,600 Protestants ;
1,440 pupils in the schools, of whom 500 are girls.
Zahleh.
Rev. G. A. Ford, of Sidon, has spent about six months in the Zahleh
field, taking the lead in all the work. Early in October Rev, and Mrs.
F. E. Hoskins were reinforced by the arrival of Rev. and Mrs. W.
Scott Watson, who have given themselves chiefly to the study of the
difficult Arabic language. Welcome visits were received from Drs.
Bliss and Eddy, and Mr. W. K. Eddy, who rendered aid in a most ac-
ceptable manner.
A little daughter was added to the family of Mr. and Mrs. Hoskins.
Special mention is made in this as in other reports of the untiring
efforts and timely counsel and encouragement of Consul Erhardt Bis-
singer. The unmistakable attitude of hostility on the part of Govern-
ment is dwelt on at length. It is, however, clear that much of this
hostility is kept alive by the zealous bishops, who lose no opportunity
to obstruct Gospel work. The school in Ain Burday (a suburb of
Baalbec) was reopened, but was so boycotted by the police that for a
considerable time the teacher had no pupils. Late in the year eight-
een had forced the blockade and were in regular attendance. At
Shuleefa the people were frightened into giving a bond in $250, to be
forfeited if they allowed the Americans to open a school there. Later
on a teacher was welcomed by the people and their bond bought back
for one dollar and eighty cents. All the schools were visited by sol-
diers, who asked questions, took notes, and reported to their superiors.
At Kob Elias the native helper was erecting a school-house and
chapel. When the walls were up and ready for the roof the Govern-
ment prohibited finishing it and arrested the native helper. He was not
released until he gave pledge that he would do no more work on the
building. The winter rains have seriously injured the roofless walls.
At Mushghara the people purchased a large bell to replace the little
old cracked one. They were adding stonies on the roof for a belfry
when work was stopped by threats to imprison the teacher.
In general the present determination of the Crovemment is that our
work shall not expand, and that we must light to hold our own, espe-
cially where there are Moslem and kindred sects. On the other hand,
the people in all directions are friendly except the papists, who seek
Digitized by VjOOQIC

opportunities to insult or injure our missionaries and their native
helpers. All others welcome their visits and listen to their instruction.
The School Work has prospered notwithstanding the obstructive and
repressive measures of Government. The average attendance is bet-
ter than before, though the actual number of pupils on the rolls is less
than the previous year. Petitions for new schools were received from
five towns.
The one solitary pupil at Sughbeen has now i8 companions and ex-
pects many more. In Mushghara and Jadeetha^ where five years ago
the work stopped for lack of interest, we have now our best success.
Church Work, — There has been real growth in the church work
and life. Special week-day meetings are largely attended. Such was
the case in Zahleh. The regular services are attended usually by less
than one hundred, while about 300 attended the special meetings.
Five members were added to the church. Although the number is
small, the frequent changes in the management of the station and the
impossibility of working up the interests of the church must account
for it. Better things are expected another year. The Foreign Mis-
sion Band in Zahleh devotes its j^ii2 to work in India. The benevo-
lent contributions of the church average one dollar per member. In
Tullya the people have expended $174 in providing a suitable place
for the school. They also offer another house for a girls' school.
Special mention is made of the marked influence of the mission press
in all the station and its work.
In a glance backward Mr. Hoskins' report says : " It is not many
years since missionaries were driven out of Zahleh. All that has
changed. It is not many years since nothing worthy to be called
a school existed; and a man who could read was reverenced as
something above an ordinary mortal. How greatly has all this
changed. None but the poorest are denied the advantages of some
schooling. Schools have been multiplied among all sects until it is
a disgrace to a man not to know how to read and to write. The de-
mand for books and newspapers is constantly growing, and one is
continually reminded that the people as a whole have waked up to
the value and imperative need of education. Best of all the Bible
is owned and read, and that priest or bishop is rash who would
attempt to hinder people in these days from owning and reading
the best of all books. The entrance of God's Word giveth light.
It is very pleasant to have this truth exemplified as clearly as it has
been in Shuleefa this year. Several young men began to study
there ; they soon put the ignorant priest to confusion, and we re-
joiced to take two of them into the church."
The Greek school in Zahleh is manned by teachers from our
schools, and furnished with books from our Press. The whole
order and spirit of it is said to be Protestant. In Wady Yahfufeh
are several Metawaly villages in which only one man could be found
able to read. A school has been opened among them. Moslems
have attended services in Badlbcc and in Muallaka^ and Bibles are
welcomed in Moslem homes. The teachers of the Governor's
girls' school in Baalbec were educated in American mission

schools. A Moslem Mufti has a son in one of our boarding-schools,
and on being galled to account for it by the authorities in Damas-
cus, claimed the right to educate his son where he pleased. Moslems
are seeing clearly the difference between evangelical Christianity
and that of the nominal Christians of the land. One of the Turkish
Governors recently spent an hour and a half talking with non-
Moslem members of his court while the missionary was calling, and
claimed that they ought all to join the evangelical party and to be
like them in faith and practice.
Abeih,
Rev. and Mrs. Wm. Bird have been connected with this station
during their entire missionary life. Their daughter, Miss £. G.
Bird, lives in their family and conducts the work for women in a
most acceptable manner. Rev. and Mrs. T. S. Pond and family
left for this country in June. Rev. O. J. Hardin took Mr. Pond's
place in November, and has taken direct charge of the training-
school. The Abeih report speaks in common with all others of the
visitation of the ** Abu Rikab*' fever which very few escaped. In
many villages every inhabitant was "in bed" with it. In some
places schools were suspended for several months on account of
small-pox and diphtheria. The Ain Zehalteh church, besides con-
tributing the usual amount toward their pastor's salary, raised $100
for a new roof to their church. Baakleen is a remarkable Druze
centre, and the home of the famous Druze warrior, Ali Beg Hamady,
who before his death requested the prayers of missionary ladies re-
siding there. Here there are 160 children in the schools, and all
taught the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Three English ladies. Misses
Smith, Ward, and Prout, have made this town their residence.
They spend their time in work for the women and are very highly
respected. They also contribute time, money, and their earnest
prayers in aid of the schools.
Shweifai^ one of the largest towns of Lebanon, continues to be a
most interesting point of work. There are about 150 pupils in our
schools. An Irish lady* Miss Proctor, has established here a board-
ing-school in which are 25 girls and 12 little boys and 31 day pupils.
The Sabbath services are well attended. The most influential men
of the place often listen to the Gospel preaching. The people are
Greek and Druze. It is well worth while to make diligent use of
our opportunities in this the winter capital of a very large district
in Lebanon. Mr. Bird in speaking of Aramoon says : ** It is at
present highly favored in having an ignorant and obstinate priest
who has succeeded in alienating a large part of his flock. Some of
them have declared themselves Protestants, while others are about
ready to do so." A hundred pupils attend the schools. Suk el Ghurb
and Abeih were supplied with preaching by the Beirut brethren who
were spending the hot season on the mountains. The training-
school at Suk el Ghurb was opened a month later than usual await-
ing Mr. Hardin's arrival, and more fees were collected, consequently
;he number of pupils has diminished slightly. The influence of

this school is felt all through the mountain for good. At Abeih
both church services and schools are up to the usual mark of inter-
est. Seven members were added to the church. The Women's
Sewing Circle for benevolent objects is a new ferture. Earning
money expressly for benevolence was a new idea and is working
beautifully. Mr. Bird says, " it dawned upon them like a revela-
tion/' and they found a new joy both in working and in bringing
the proceeds to their treasury. They were surprised that they
could give so much. One poor woman made little clay models of
Syrian household articles, and was astounded to find that she had
more than two dollars to give to the treasury. '^ The giving of so
much money at once had not entered into her wildest dreams."
Druze women and others have joined in the same work and help it
on. While there are special obstacles in the southern part of the
station, owing to the almost unrestrained influence and antagonism
of the Maronite bishop, yet on the whole there is a bright outlook
and signs of great good to come.
Tripoli.
The area and population of the district occupied by this station
are equal to about half that of the whole mission. It contains four
important cities, Tripoli^ El Meena^ Hamath, and Hums^ now con-
nected by a carriage-road. The material prosperity of the people
is about equal to that of other Syrians. The wealth is in the
hands of a few, while the vast majority are poor. One of the prin-
cipal features of the work at this station is its touring. The suc-
cessful working of it requires the absence of one of its members
nearly all the time. The burden of this important part of the work
has rested during the year mainly on the Rev. F. W. March, senior
member of the station. Dr. Ira Harris, who returned with his
family in July with restored health, was most cordially welcomed by
his associates as well as by the Syrians of all sects, and especially by
the Moslems, among whom by means of his surgical skill he had
made many warm friends. Rev. and Mrs. W. S. Nelson are making
excellent progress with the language, Mr. Nelson having already
begun the use of it in public services.
Teachers* Convention. — Mr. Nelson says in the abstract of the
station report that " In the summer a convention of all its native
helpers was called at Tripoli, Some of the teachers travelled four
days to reach it. It was a pleasant and helpful occasion, and all re-
turned to their various posts with renewed spirit and devotion."
Persecution, — This station, whose work has been made so memo-
rable in years past by the long-continued and bitter persecutions
against its converts, has experienced a year of rest and quiet. Mr.
Nelson says : " It has been a pleasure to see an increase of brotherly
love and Christian zeal. In more than one place a p eriod of lethargy
has been followed by a time of earnest work and morediligent study of
the Scriptures. The largest accession to the church was at Minyara^
where eleven were welcomed to the communion-table." In Hums
one of the native brethren, an elder in the church and for many
Digitized by VjOOQIC
SYRIA — TRIPOLI. 2 1 5
years teacher, was called to fill the absent pastor*s place, which he
has done with great acceptance. A home missionary band has un-
dertaken work in the surrounding towns with considerable suc-
cess. One whole village with its priest offered to become Protest-
ants. The result will doubtless be the beginning of a church there
after persecution has sifted the people.
Under the leadership of one or two of the women, vigorous work was
also undertaken for the women of that city. A new place of worship,
outside the city walls, is greatly needed to meet the wants of those who
have not before been reached. The school at Hatnath^ which has
been reopened more than once in accordance with orders from Con-
stantinople, has been as often closed by the local Turkish Government.
The meetings, however, both here and at Mahardeh^ are so well at-
tended that new and larger accommodations are an imperative neces-
sity. The accessions to the church membership during the year have
been forty-one.
Schools, — " Several schools have been added to the list of last year,
and many other villages are urgently calling for more. The chief
increase in the roll has been in the line of girls' schools. One has
been reopened at Safita^ one at Bishmizeen, and a new one at Meshia,
This last is attended by boys as well as girls, though the teacher is a
young woman."
The work at Tripoli is thus described in the report :
** Several departments of work centre in Tripoli itself. The book-
store is always a useful agency where much religious work is done in
the salesroom, and the colporteurs, supported by the American Bible
Society, have made successful trips in the North, selling many copies
of the Scriptures and conversing much with the people, awakening a
new interest in the truth. The dispensary, which has been reopened
since Dr. Harris* return, calls together a large company at every
clinic. Many of these are Moslems, and they hear the Bible read and
explained before receiving medical attention. Three regular preaching
services are maintained. One is at the city proper, one at the Meena,
or port, and the third on the hill where the poorest people of the city
reside. This last quarter is the most interesting part of our work in
Tripoli. The' men gather every evening for Bible study, and meet-
ings are frequently held for the women."
The Girl^ Boarding-School has been crowded with pupils this year.
There have been 33 boarders and 100 day pupils* The Italians have
opened a free-school, supported by their Government, for the sake of
introducing their language, and thus opening a channel for their com-
merce. Many years ago the principal foreign language in Syria was
Italian, and trade was carried on through Italian merchants. The
French gradually took its place, and Italian influence with its trade dis-
appeared. We now notice a revival of Italy's interests in its introduc-
tion of new schools in the important centres with no religious purpose,
but simply and avowedly that of Government interest. The Italian
ladies, who are teaching their girls' school, showed a friendly interest
in our school. Their institution, though free and quite a success, has
not as yet detracted at all from our own. The ladies in charge
have been able, by the well-earned reputation of its teachers, to col-

lect the regular fees from the pupils. The report says : " The direct
study of the Bible is a conspicuous element in the life of the school.
During the year one of the native teachers was taken away by death.
She was a graduate, and had taught for a few years in the school.
While there was no marked religious awakening during the year
among the girls, several of their number have made public confession
of their faith in Christ, thus subjecting themselves to trying persecu-
tion from relatives and friends/*
Mr. Nelson, in closing his report, adds :
" In all respects the members of the Tripoli station look over the
past year with gratitude to God for His hand leading them, and with
new courage for the future. The whole missionary band is on the
ground and in good health, ready for active work ; the native brethren
are in earnest and ready for aggressive movements, and hopeful indi-
cations cheer the workers in many directions/'

H. H. FRY, Secretary Central Committee.
The above statement shows actual work of the Women's Societies and Boards as given in
detail in their separate reports. The expenses of these Societies and a small amount disbursed
directly by them do not appear in the statement of the Treasurer of the Assembly's Board.
♦ The Woman's Foreign Missionary Society of Philadelphia also gave during the year for
Clara Linton Hamilton Memorial Building, China, $3,585.54, and for church at Shweifat,
Syrb, $a,ooo, which, however, was not appropriated by the Board until after May x, 1890,
and will appear in accounts for 1890-1891.
t The Occidental Board, heretofore reporting through the Philadelphia Society, collected a
larger amount than here stated, but disbursed the same for work under appropriations, without
being sent through the Assembly's Board. This will be changed in the methods of the current
year.

SEVENTY-FIRST ANNUAL REPORT.
Gratefal to God for a year of enlarged work and for the cordial
support of many churches and of special friends, the Board of Educa-
tion respectfully presents to the (General Assembly its Seventy-First
Report.
The Board re-organized at the beginning of the year by the
election of the Rev. George D. Baker, D. D., for President, and the
Rev. James M. Crowell D.D., for Vice-President. The Corresponding
Secretary and Treasurer \yere continued the same as before. The
Rev. John Dixon, D. D., who was appointed to fill the term of
Rev. Marcus A. Brownsou resigned, felt it to be his duty, after full
consideration of the subject, to decline his appointment which he did
with much regret. In October last. Elder H. W. Pitkin, a much
valued member of our body who had served it faithfully for twelve
years was removed from us by death, and a resolution commemorative
of his worth was adopted and put on record. The vacancies thus
made have not been filled. The meetings of the Board have been for
the most part well attended and the business harmoniously conducted.
The carefully prepared report of the Assembly's Committee, of
which the Rev. Dr. Morris was Chairman, and which was read before
its session last Spring, seems to have awakened the attention of our
young men to the question of their duty towards the ministry and to
have secured a larger number of enlistments than ever before by its
startling fiicts and cogent appeals. In all 913 have been recommended
for aid by their Presbyteries. Of these 332 were new cases. Out of
the whole number 47 were declined from apprehensions of incurring
too heavy a debt at the end of the year. As a general rule, prefer-
ence was given to those who were intending to take a full course of
study, or were already in College or in the Theological Seminary.^
Academics were received only on strong representations of their worth
and need. The Professors' Reports have always been carefully
scrutinijed and every instance of failure on the part of a student to
reach a fair standing on all the topics specified has been noted and
inquired into. When no satisfactory explanation has been returned
and no good promise of usefulness testified to, the case has been
reported to Presbytery recommending and the Scholarship withheld.

The main dishearteniDg fact to be mentioDed is that the oontri-
butiODS have not increased in proportion to the number of candidates,
as was hoped. While some churches have doubled their gifts, others
have lessened theirs. 3,611 have sent us nothing. Many of these are
marked vacant on the Assembly's roll; others have only '^ stated
supplies '^ in their pulpits who do not remain long enough in chai^
to take the causes well in hand. Some ministers, and those too of
large churches, decline to present our cause altogether or even to give
their people an opportunity to contribute to it, on the ground that
they do not approve of the policy on which it proceeds. Others find
the opposition in their sessions. From the Synodical Reports on
Education we learn that the lack of due interest in this Board is
chiefly owing to the n^lect of ministers to set forth its importance
and its needs to their congregations. There is some reason to think
tl^t this is true.
In this connection we take the liberty of pressing one point of
no little moment. Inasmuch as the Boards were designed to act as
the organs of the church in its united capacity, working as one body,
undertaking its enterprises and incurring obligations in reliance on
"that which every joint supplieth according to the working in due
measure of each several part " it seems of the utmost importance that
this design should be thoroughly understood and complied with ; and
that all ofBcers of the church, especially its ministers, should act
together in all loyalty for the furtherance of the common interests ;
and moreover that the Presbyteries, with whom is lodged the over-
sight, or episcopate, with us, should see that it is properly executed.
When such concurrent action is lacking, the church naturally becomes
hampered in its movements. That there is need of this stricter
concurrence, is seen in the embarrassments in which this Board, for
example, is involved from want of knowing with some degree of
definiteness what to rely upon in arranging its plans and calculating
its outlays. Nearly all the applications for aid with us come in at the
beginning of the scholastic year, and the order is that the Board fulfill
the promises made to the students then, even though it should be
necessary to borrow the money in order to do it. Accordingly the
problem at the outset is to ascertain how many candidates it will be
safe to receive and at what amounts the scholarships shall be put.
But in the endeavor to solve this problem the wisest calculations are
often foiled by failure in the contributions which were counted on.

So it happened this year. When it was inferred from the great
increase of candidates and from the earlier contributions, that the
•churches were waking up to the importance of this cause and that
there would surely be an enlarged income correspondingly, a greater
number of recommendations than usual was cautiously but hopefully
accepted. But as time went on, there came a change ominous of a
deficiency. It was difficult to tell what to do. When so many of
the Boards were out with their appeals for assistance, it seemed hardly
wise to add ours to theirs, and thus multiply before the public the
unpleasant evidences of a wide delinquency on the part of the churches.
But there was no other course left for us. We proclaimed our neces-
fdties through all the journals. We sent out urgent reminders to all
the churches that had as yet given us nothing. Several chairmen of
our Presbyterial Committees came nobly to our assistance at no small
expense of time and money in stirring their brethren up to duty, and
flo earned our warmest thanks. Besides all this more than a hundred
letters were written by the secretary and by members of the Board,
and directed where it was thought they would do the most good,
showing the straitness we were in, and urging help by various
arguments. Some kind responses were thus obtained. But notwith-
standing these efforts we regret to say that the payment of last year's
debt has compelled us to close our accounts with a deficit of 8,700.*
Plain enough is it that the Church needs more system, more concert of
action, and a deeper interest in all its measures awakened throughout
its entire body if it is to accomplish anything worthy of itself with
that ease and readiness which becomes it. Constant prodding is
annoying; but indifference to obligations assumed is, on the other
hand, both discreditable and harmful when exhibited to any extent.
When churches are calling aloud for more educated ministers and
young men moved by the call are offering themselves to the service
on condition of being aided somewhat in their preparation for it, a
very discouraging setback is it for them to be refused the required
help, and the church suffers from vacant pulpits in consequence. A
painful necessity also was it for the Board to be obliged to decline
several of the applications it has had from want of funds.
• Two days after the accounts were closed for the year we were gladdened by a generous
gift of 93,000, from a friend who has once and again come to our relief aforetime. This was
Intended to go in with the contributions of the year Just ended. Had it come earlier it would
have reduced our reported deficit to $5,700 ; a less sum than that of the year previous.

THE NECESSITY UPON US.
Here another important question arises. Can the Church afford
to fail in this fundamental work of supplying itself with a sufficiency
of educated men to fill its pulpits, and to carry on its educational and
missionary enterprises? The Minutes of the last Assembly report
1,148 churches vacant of which fully 400 were, judging from their
numbers, important enough to command the entire services of a
minister. The others are small in membership and indicate a greater
or less chance for living according to the amount of nurture they may
get and the size of the place they are planted in. It must be remem-
bered, however, that a small church is not necessarily a weak one*
To these vacancies must be added our average net increase of churches
annually which Dr. Morris puts at 150. Last year it was 188. To
meet this large demand made by our vacancies and additions it appears
from the same authority that aside from the 589 ministers without
charge, of whom the number that can be relied upon for steady work
may be reckoned at 300, we are producing from our seminaries an
annual average of only 145 graduates, to which should be added an
average of 30 per annum who are classed as "extraordinary cases,*'
that is, not regularly educated. Besides these we are drawing from
other denominations at the rate of 82 annually. Last year this
number swelled to 105 in the line of a steady advance. " But when
we have to deduct from the total of these supplies the number that
die annually which may be put at 93, it will be seen that our annual
rate of increase in ministers is inadequate to meet the denominational
demand.'* So says the report from which we quote.
In this connection there comes in another consideration which
was alluded to last year but which we would emphasize anew. It is
the effect which this large dependence on outside sources for our
ministerial supplies must have on the homogeneousness of our church,
both in doctrine and polity, and also in its administration. It is
hardly possible for men who have not been brought up with us to
become at once thoroughly of us and take a deep interest in all our
various enterprises and understand our ways. Such identification
usually requires time, and when not begun early is seldom complete:
We claim therefore that the church owes it to herself, as well for the
maintenance of her credit, as for the preservation of her order, to
train up her ministers more generally from out of her own sons, and
in her own institutions, and thus to qualify them to do her work in
Digitized by VjOOQIC
her own way. Not that we should not welcome from abroad all in
sympathy with us who desire to join us. But what we want is more
consolidation. Differences weaken. If we would advance rapidly in
our attempts to conquer the country and the world for Christ we must
move together^ in compact phalanx^ and with uniform step, sustaining
each other in every common effort, and submitting to one general
control. But this solidarity can never be secured unless we have
more uniformity and hearty concurrence in our ministry, even though
it be at the sacrifice of private opinion.
THE PARTIAL CX)URSE.
The question as to the extent to which the Board should coun-
tenance those who are intending to take only a partial course nf study
is still under consideration. While it has kept in mind the opinion of
the last Assembly that it should "aid all candidates recommended by
the Presbyteries ; leaving it with them to determine what cases should
be r^arded as extraordinary," it has been constrained by a regard for
its Ck)nstitution as well as by the lack of funds to make a discrimina-
tion in favor of the r^ular cases. The number aided that were not
in full accord with our rules i^ 63, and for these in several instances
special gifts were sent.
CONTRIBUTIONS.
The number of churches contributing to the Board was 3,008 a
little less than half of the whole number. Special sums have also
been sent in by private and unnameable friends, with expressions of
interest that were very gratifying. The whole sum received from all
sources amounts to $84,936.34 an excess of $4,0001.65 for current
uses over that of the previous year.
THE NEWBERRY SCHOLARSHIP.
In September of 1888 the Board of Education had the pleasure
of receiving a check for $10,000, being the amount in full due under
the will of the late John S. Newberry, of Detroit, Mich. This devise
had been made " for the education of young men for the ministry, to
be received and held in trust by the Board for investment, and to be
called the ' Newberry Fund/ its income to be used exclusively for the
education, in some theological institution, of one young man for the
time being, and from time to time, for the ministry."
This trust was gladly accepted by the Board, and because of the
dose relations which the testator had sustained to Lane Theological
Seminary, it was resolved " that the first award of the income of said
Digitized by VjOOQIC
fund be given to one of the students in that institution who, upon a
competitive examination between three members of the Junior class of
1889, recommended by the faculty, should seem the best deserving of
it as combining the qualifications of high Christian character, good
judgment and scholarship, fitting them for special usefulness in the
Gospel ministry." A committee of the Board conducted this examina-
tion, and, after a trial in all departments of collegiate study required,
recommended that the Newberry scholarship be awarded to a student
in the Junior Class of that Seminary who had obtained the highest
number of marks on their schedule of grades. This recommendation
was unanimously adopted, and the student thus benefitted was also
urged, now that he was freed from the necessity of laboring in any
way for his support, to improve his vacation in such reading and
study, under the direction of the faculty, as would advance him still
further in his preparatory course. The money has been sent him.
One advantage resulting from such prize scholarships is that it
insures the direction of the funds to the worthiest, so far as rigid exam-
ination can ascertain who is the worthiest, and furnishes to such a
candidate still further the means of cultivating his fine gifts and mul-
tiplying his attainments to the utmost, and thus of qualifying himself
for some eminent position, either as pastor of some important church,
or as professor or president in some of our literary or theological
institutions. Such men are called for more and more as the popula-
tion of our country increases ; and we are not raising enough of them.
Our candidates, most of them, are too much straitened in resources
to obtain the means for a large and liberal culture, and are obliged
often to hasten into service for support when a longer course of study
might help to lift them into the highest ranks of Christian scholarship.
These ranks are by no means full. Might not, therefore, the example
of Mr. Newberry be profitably followed by others, and the number
of these prize funds be increased, to the great benefit of our church ?
The Board of Education at present allows its candidates but $100
per year, a sum by no means sufiicient to cover the expenses of board,
clothing, books and travel. Only to double or triple this amount
would, therefore, still be a prize worthy of consideration and prove
very helpful.
CANDIDATES AIDED.
The number of candidates under care of the Board has increased
from 772 to 839. They were distributed through their course of study
Digitized by VjOOQIC
as follows : in the Theological semiDaries, 357 ; in Colleges, 406 ; in
the Preparatory department, 76.
Classified according to their nationality and race : 36 are Ger-
mans; 110 Negroes; 5 Scandinavians; 4 Bohemians; 2 Japanese;
1 Spaniard; 1 Mexican; 1 Brazilian; 5 Bulgarians; 1 Turk; 1
Syrian, The rest are American, Scotch, Irish and Dutch.
In point of scholarship 270 are marked high; 268 medium +;
234 medium ; 14 mediuih — ; 10 low. A few of those marked below
medium have been retained on special information from their instructors
that their excellence in other respects warrants good hope of success in
the ministry; 6 have been obliged to suspend study on account of ill-
health; 4 have been dropped for marked disqualifications in ability
and conduct ; 7 have withdrawn, having found other means of sup-
port ; 36, though accepted by the Board on Presbyterial recommenda-
tions, were not reported by their professors as needing the scholar-
ships, and, therefore, they were not paid. One promising student has
been called away by death.
Those who have completed their studies at the Theological Semi-
naries, and have been graduated this spring, are as follows : From
McCormick, 31 ; Princeton, 29; Union, 16; Lane, 11; Western, 5;
Auburn, 4 ; Newark, 5 ; Lincoln, 3 ; Dubuque, 2.

a still further advance upon that of last year.

'' Lincoln " 8, " 10.
" Biddle " 0, " 5.
German Theo. school at Bloomfield, 5, same as last year,
*' *' " Dubuque, 2, a decrease of 2.
This shows a total of 213, a happy advance on that of last year by
18. Yet it must be remembered that all these graduates are not in oar
connection, and can not be counted on as for us. How many are to
be deducted on this score it is not easy to ascertain. But notwith-
standing all this increase it is plain that the accommodations at these
institutions are not all taken up. There still is room. Would that
it could be fully occupied. In order to do this there is required only
a little more effort on the part of ministers and elders and Sabbath-
school teachers to enlist the young men under their care in the blessed
service, and on the part of parents to consecrate their sons to the same
high calling.
In conclusion, the Board would respectfully ask whether the day
for presenting the cause of Ministerial Education before the Assembly
can not be changed to one less liableto interruption. . For many years
the day devoted to it has been the second Thursday of the session, and
this is the day on which the delegates from corresponding bodies are
heard as the first order. And as their speeches are of an uncertain length
it often happens that the time intended for this cause is crowded into
very narrow limits, and but little opportunity is afforded for that full
and free ventilation which it needs. It has greatly suffered in conse-
quence. There are points connected with it that require to be thor-
oughly discussed, and objections made to it that ought to be removed
by an open canvass of their force. It does not yet command that full
assent of the church which is essential to its proper support and which
its importance demands.
The members of the Board whose term of service expires this
year are as follows : Ministers — Greorge D. Baker, D. D.; James M.
Crowell, D. D. .EZcier*— George W. Barr, Andrew Blair. The two
vacancies to be filled belonging to the same term are those of John
Dixon, D. D., resigned, and H. W. Pitkin, deceased.
All of which is respectfully submitted by order of the Board.
D. W. POOR,
Oorreapondinff Secretary.

APPENDIX.
ACTION OF THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY.
The Sunding Committee of the Assembly consisted of the following, named persons:
Ministers: Elders:
Robert M. Patterson, D. D., Emerson E. White,
Timothy G. Darling, D. D., Alfred P. Reid,
Robert Irwin, D. D.. Henry Warden,
Adam McClelland, D. D., John Thorn,
Samuel T. Wilson, Robert E. Lawrence,
John L. Scott, D. D., George D. Dayton.
George S. Leeper, Samuel A. Farrand.
James H. Baldwin.
The Committee presented therr report on Monday, May Z9th, 1890, through their
Chairman, Rev. R. M. Patterson, D. D., which was accepted. The Assembly was then
addressed by Rev. D. W. Poor. Corresponding Secretary of the Board.
The report was unanimously adopted, and is as follows :
The Standing Committee on Education respectfully reports that it h^s examined the
Seventy-First Annual Report of the Board of Education, from which it gleans the following
(acts:
The whole amount of money received from all sources during the year was $84,936.34,
an advance of $4,001.65 upon that of the previous year. The payment of the preceding
year's debt, however, and the necessary appropriations to an enlarged number of students
compelled the Board to close its accounts with a deficit of $8,700, which was reduced by
the receipt two days thereafter of a gift of $3,000, intended to go in with the contributions
of the year, leaving the real deficit, therefor, $5,700. a sum, the Committee is glad to note,
less than that of the previous year.
The number of churches contributing this year is 3,008 ; 336 more than last year, but
still leaving 3,511 non-contributing.
The number of candidates under the care of the Board has increased from 77a to 839.
The number recommended* by their presbyteries was 913. a larger number than ever
before, of which 33a were new cases, but of the whole number forty-seven were declined
from apprehensions of incurring too heavy a debt at the end of the year. It thus appears
that while the contributions have increased they have not increased in proportion to the
number of candidates, and the Board had to reject worthy cases because the Church did
not furnish it with the means for their support. The Lord is answering the prayer
for the sending of more laborers into the harvest by putting into the hearts of an in-
creasing number of young men the desire to be trained for the work ; and the people should
unite in the answer to the prayer by aiding the young men in their preparation.
The number of graduates from our theological seminaries last year was 213. a happy
advance on that of the preceding year by eighteen, and of that number 106 were under the
care of the Board. These figures suggest the great value of the Board. As it is, with
those who come to us from other denominations, the annual supply of ministers is inade-
quate to meet the demands of the Church. How destitute would be our condition without
those who. unless aided as they are by the Board, could not pass through the curriculum
required 7
Special attention is directed in the Annual Report to prize scholarships, suggested by a
gift of $zo,ooo by John S. Newberry, of Detroit, Mich.; the income to be appropriated,
after a competitive examination, for the education in some theological institution, of one
young man for the time being, and from time to time, for the ministry. The report adds
very judiciously ;
Digitized by VjOOQIC
87
'« One adTantage resulting from of such prise scholarships is that it insures
the direction of the funds to the worthiest, so far as rigid examination can ascertain who
is the worthiest, and furnishes to such a candidate still further the means of cultivating his
fine gifts and multiplying his attainments to the utmost, and thus qualifying himself for
some eminent position, either as pastor of some important church , or as professor or president
in some of our literary or theological institutions. Such men are called for more and more
as the population of our country increases, and we are not raising enough of them. Our
candidates, most of them, are too much straitened in resources to obtain the means for a large
and liberal culture, and are obliged often to hasten into service for support when a longer
course of study might help to lift them into the highest ranks of Christian scholarship.
These ranks are by no means full. Might not, therefore, the example of Mr. Newberry be
profitably followed by others, and the number of these prize funds t>e increased, to the great
benefit of our Church 7 The Board of Education at present allows its candidates but $ioo
per year, a sum by no means sufficient to cover the expenses of board, clothing, books and
travel. Only to double or treble this amount would, therefore, still be a prize worthy of
consideration and prove very helpful.
"It would, in the judgment of the Committee, be highly beneficial to establish more
such scholarships, so as to enable young men of special ability under the care of the Board
to prosecute without anxiety studies that will fit them for important work in the Church.
Church.
"The Secretary of the Board, in his intercourse with the Committee, in which he has
frankly and clearly met every inquiry and fully explained the principles on which the
Board acts, desires the Committee to emphasize the fact that the number of vacant churches
and of pulpits occupied by stated supplies have an injurious influence in a two-fold way on
the work of the Board, i. In such churches the cause is either not presented at all or pre*
sented in a way that is not effective ; hence, non-contributing churches or merely nominal
contributions, a. They discourage young men from desiring to enter the ministry. The
candidate system is not alluring to them. The subject is touched upon in one of the special
reports that has been set down for consideration in connection with this report. The
Committee alludes to it here for the pur[>ose of emphasizing its importance and turning
the minds of the General Assembly the more intently upon the recommendations of the
special committee."
In view of these statements the Committee recommend the adoption of the following
resolutions :
X. That the fidelity to their trust of the members and officers of the Board of Education
be approved, and that they be commended anew to the Churches in the prosecution of the
important work committed to them.
a. That the General Assembly mourns the loss of the valuable services of elder H. W,
Pitkin, a member of the Board, who, after twelve years' service, has been removed by death.
3. That the General Assembly expresses its pleasure at the increasing interest in the
work of the Board as manifested by the increased number of contributing churches, but
regrets to note that so many are still non-contributing. As a matter of loyalty to our
Church the General Assembly emphasizes the duty of all sessions to afford their congrega-
tions the opportunity to contribute to this as well as to the other agencies by which the
Church carries on its work ; and it directs presbyteries to make diligent inquiry as to
compliance with this duty, and to press its observance upon those whose reasons for non-
compliance are insufficient.
4* That the Board be advised to support its candidates only at institutions which are
under or in harmony with our Church : and that it is against sound principle and policy
for those who are aided by the contributions of our people to be committed to the care of
institutions of leaming'where they are likely to be diverted from our own seminaries and
ministry.
• 5. The General Assembly calls the attention of wealthy members of our Church to the
system of prize scholarships, by which they can help to prepare young men of special ability
under the care of the Board for important literary and theological positions in the Church.
6. The members of the Board whose term of service expires this year are ; Minister: »
George D. Baker. D. D.; James M. Crowell, D. D.; Elders, George W. Barr. Andrew
Blair. The Committee recommends that they be re-elected.
There are two vacancies caused by the resignation of John Dixon, D. D., and the
death of Elder H. W. Pitkin.
The committee recommends the election of the Rev. W. C. Rommel to fill the forme^
and Elder James F. Magee the latter. All of which is respectfully submitted.

RULES OF THE BOARD OF EDUCATION
RELATING TO
CaNDIDJlTES FOR THE MINISTRY.
I.— Dependence of the Board of Education upon the Feesbyteries of the
Church.
1. The Board of Education shall receive and aid candidates for the ministry of the
Gospel only upon the recommendation of a Presbytery of the Church; and the IVesbytery
is responsible for their examination, subsequent care, and the designation of the annual
amount of aid to be granted to them, within the limits set by the General Assembly.
2. The Board will in each case look especially to the Education Committee of the
Presbytexy for filling out and forwarding the form of recommendation required for the
reception of a candidate, and also for the pastoral care of the same, until his entrance
up6n his official duties.
3. As a general rule, the Board will receive any young man of whose examination
and recommendation in conformity with its requirements proper notification has been
given ; but it shall be at liberty to refuse new candidates beyond its ability to support them ;
and it will not give aid to students from the foreign missionary field unless they have
been recommended by our foreign missionaries abroad, or have come to study in this
country by a special invitation given from this Board upon the request of other duly rec-
ognized church authorities, or of missionaries resident on the fields from which they come.
II. — Reception of Candidates.
1. The encouragement of a young man to enter the Gospel ministry is a matter of
serious concern both to himself and to the Church ; and it should be given only by those
who have proper knowledge of his mental and moral character, accompanied with much
counsel and prayer, and directly' by a single desire for the glory of God. Eveiy candi-
' date should join that Presbytery to which he would most naturally belong ; and he should
be introduced to it either by his pastor or by some member of the Education Committee
after such acquaintance as will warrant his taking the responsibility of so doing.
2. The Presbytery, in examining students with a view to their recommendation for aid,
must embrace such points as are indicated by the following questions, to which definite
answers, by the direction of the Assembly will invariably be required by the Board : What
is the candidate's name ? Age ? Residence ? Is the Presbytery satisfied as to his ex-
perimental piety ? As to his motives for seeking the ministry ? As to his talents? As
to his health ? As to his promise of practical efficiency ? Is he fr«e fh>m expensive and
injurious habits ? What is the lowest amount of pecuniary aid required to supplement
his really necessary expenses till the end of the present collegiate year ? Of what congre-
gation is he a member? How long has he been in the communion of the Church?
What is his stage of study ? Wliere studying ? Has he been recommended to Presbytery
by his Church Session ? If in a Theological Seminary, has he pursued a collegiate course
or its equivalent? Can he recite the Westminster Assembly's Shorter Catechism? Give
the name of a responsible person (usually a member of the faculty of the institution, or
his pastor) through whom the scholarship can be sent.
3. No candidate shall be received by the Board who has not been a member of the
Presbyterian Church, or of some closely related body, for at least one year ; who has not
been recommended to the Presbytery by the ScssioQ of the Church of which he » •
Digitized by VjOOQIC
39
member; and who is not safficiently advanced in study to enter college, except bx extm-
ordinaiy cases.
III.— Scholarships.
t. The annual scholarships to candidates shall be the same in amount for theological
and collegiate students, and not exceed 1 150; for those in the preparatory course the
a- 1 ount shall not exceed ^100.
2. These Scholarships shall be paid to a student only on the reception of particular
and satisfactory reports from his professors, embracing the following poiiits: Chri^ti^i
Character? Scholarship? Rhetorical Ability? Punctuality? Economy?
3. The Board may increase or diminish, in a general ratio, the Scholarships in case
of unusual surplus or deficiency in funds.
4. No payment shall be made in advance. Each payment shall be acknowledged
by a receipt signed by the candidate, or by the person authorized by him to receive it
And this receipt shall contain a pledge to return the amount given, with interest, in case
he of his own accord turn aside from his ministerial calling.
5. In order to suit the period when the students most need assistance, and when the
reports finom professors can be most satisfactorily made, the reports shall ordinarily be
made on the first days of October, January and April. The payments of a student whose
recommendation is made at any time between those days may be expected to commence
at the date of it.
6. The Board will in no case be responsible for the debts of students ; but it is ex*
peeled of them that the scholarship shall be first applied to the payment of tuition and
boarding.
7. The payments to candidates shall cease regularly at the close of the collegiate year,
or earlier when the time for which they were recommended by the Presbytery has ex*
pired, and these shall not be made in cases of prolonged ill health which may unfit them
lot the work of the ministry ; or when they are manifestly improvident, or contract debts
without reasonable prospects of payment; or when they many; or when they receive
assistance from any other educational board or society ; or, when from private drcum-
itances, they cease to need aid.
8. The sums of money appropriated by the Board shall be refunded to it, with
imeresL in case a student tail to enter on or continue in the work of the ministry (unless
it ^ipears that he is providentially prevented); or if he ceases to adhere to the standards
of the Ihresbyteiian Ciurch; crif he changes his place of study contrary to the directions
of the Presbytery, or continue to prosecute his studies at an institution not approved by
k or by the Board; or ii he withdraws his coimection from the Church of which this
Board is the organ, without furnishing a saisfactory reason.
9. A scholarship afforded by the Presbyterian Church, through the Board of Educa*
lion, is not to be given or regarded as a loan, to be refunded by those who comply with
these rules and regularly enter the ministry, but as her cheerful contribution to facilitate
and expedite their preparation for it; and they are only obligated by it to a warmer in-
terest in her efforts for the advancement of the Redeemer's kingdom, and especially to
the use of the means necessary to instruct and stunulate her members m the duty of
multiplying and sending forth preachers of the Gospel of salvation to all the world.
IV.— Care of Candidates.
I. Candidates are required, except in extraordinary cases, and theh only with the
explicit permission of their Presbyteries, to pursue a thorough course of study, preparatory
to that of theology, in institutions that sympathize with the doctrinal teachings of the P^es-
Digitized by VjOOQIC
40
byteriaif Church ; and, when prepared, to pursue a three years' course of theological
studies in some seminary connected with the same Church, and no work of preaching b
allowed to interfere with the diligent and faithful prosecution of their prescribed studies
until the close.
2. The Board can rely only upon the Education Committee of each IVesbjrtcry for the
regular care of its own Candidates, which should Include the constant exercise of a par-
ental oversight over them in spiritual things, and the bestowment of the counsel they need
as to their mode of preparation, their place of study, their trials, and the occupation oi
their time, while not engaged in study, in employments which will tend to qualify them
for effective usefulness as pastors or evangelists.
3. The Board shall assist the Presbytery in its care of candidates, by fumishing an-
nually to the Education Committee, a summary of information from the professois* reports
as to the standing of each student ; and the Corresponding Secretary shall exercise a gen-
eral supervisory care over them, also visit and address them, when practicable, at the in*
stitution where they are, in regard to their duties and the claims of the office which thej
have in view.
4. The recommendation of each candidate must be annually renewed by his IVesby-
tery, if possible, at the spring meeting, in connection with one from the Session of the
Church of which he is a member, and a specification must be made of the amount needed
by him ; and until the notification of these points has been received, a student will not
be considered as upon the roll for the year.
5. Recommendations, or renewals of them, made by an Education Committee in the
hiterim of the Sessions of a Presbytery, shall be received as sufficient, provided its action
is reported to the Presbytery at its next session, and not countermanded to the Board.
6. If, at any time, there be discovered in a student such defect in capacity, diligence,
and especially in piety, as would render his introduction into the ministry a doubtfiil
measure, it shall be the sacred duty of the Board to communicate without delay the in-
formation received to the Education Committee of his Presbytery; and if, on careful in-
quiry on the part of the Presbytery, no satisfactory explanation of the defect can be ob-
tained, or if no response be received by the Board from the Presbytery or from its Com«
mittee on Education, within the current quarter, it shall be the duty of thb Board to
withdraw its aid altogether.
7. Special care should be exercised by the Presbytery in the .examination of students
who are about to enter upon the theologrical course, according to the instructions of the
Form of Government (Chap. XIV. Sec. III.): and this examination should be conducted
by the Presbytery, and be entirely satisfactory as to the " real piety " of the students,
" and the motives which have influenced them to desire the sacred office," before they
are allowed to take this final step towards assuming its great responsibilities.
8. The annual report, occasional publications of this Board, and a copy of the Con-
fession of Faith, shall be sent gratis to all students under its care who request them.
V. — Particular Duties of Candidates.
I. Inasmuch as the great aim of the Church, in the establishment of the Board of
Education, is the increase of holy and faithful preachers of the Gospel ; the young breth-
ren who look to this work are earnestly and affectionately reminded that all intellectual
acquisitions are of little value without the cultivation of piety, and that they are expected
and required to pay special attention to the practical duties of religion, such as reading
the Scriptures ; secret prayer and meditation ; occasional acts of special consecration of
themselves to Christ and to His service, as their Redeemer and as the Lord of all ; a^
Digitized by VjOOQIC
41
tendance at r^ular meetings on the Sabbath and daring the week ; endeavors to promote
the salvation of others ; and the exhibition at all times of a pious and consistent example.
2. Inasmuch as the scholarships granted by the Board will necessarily fall short of a
foil support of the students, it will be expected that they and their friends will make all
proper exertions to supply whatever may be wanting.
3. When a student shall find it necessary to relinquish study for a time, in order to
increase his means for support, by teaching or otherwise, he shall first obtain the consent
the Education Committee of the Presbytery, or of the Board; and if when given, he
ill not be absent from study more than three months, his scholarship will be continued;
uuc if longer, it will be discontinued, or continued in part, according to circumstances.
4. It shall be the duty of each candidate coimected with the Board to report himself,
soon after the meetii^ of thb General Assembly, to the Education Committee of his Pres-
bytery, as to his progress, wants, and prospects ; and when any of the requisitions of the
Board which affect him may not be carried out by teachers or others, it becomes 1^ duty
to see that they are attended to, that delays and losses to himself may be prevented.
5. The reception of a scholarship by a student shall be considered as expressing a
promise to comply with all the rules and regulations of the Board.
VC— Special Rules for Colored Candidates.
1. The Board will take none under its care as candidates for the ministry aihong the
negroes during the preparatory course unless after a season of thorough trial and approval
both as to piety and ability, through two or three years — as reported by their teachers.
2. Such students are not to be aided more than two years before entering college.
3. It is not regarded as advisable for any colored student to pursue a foil collegiate
course who does not evince an aptitude for study that will enable hun to reach at least a
grade of 70, out of a possible 100, in sciences and languages.
4. In case a colored student evinces peculiar gifts for the ministry, aside from his
ability to acquire a knowledge of the sciences or languages, he should be advised to pur-
sue a wholly English course in History, Exegesis, Theology, Moral Science, etc.
5. The attention of the Presbjrteries and Instructors is called to the great importance
of having immoralities on the part of students under the care of this Board reported to it
as soon as possible, after such lapses from Christian character shall be known.
6. In order to discharge the trust imposed upon the Board with conscientious fidelity,
the Committees of Ptesbyteries, who commend students to the care of the Board, are re-
quested to fomish the Board with full and minute information as to thq moral and Chris-
tian character, and the real mental ability and promise of the candidates so commended.
7. As there is a difference of expense in attendance at different institutions, and as
it is one of the rules of the Board that students shall ask for the minimum sum that will
meet their needs, therefore when the Board knows that any named sum at the special in*
atitution will suffice, the allowance from the Board shall not exceed that amount.
8. As it is enjoined m the Rules and urged upon the Board, by a special resolution
of the Assembly, of 1 878, (see Minutes of General Assembly, p. 47) that candidates
enter and remain hi the Presbytery to which they naturally belong, and by the Assembly
of 1884 (see Minutes of General Assembly, p. 87) it is enjoined that candidates under the
care of the Board pursue their collegiate studies in institutions that are in sympathy with^
both the doctrines and polity of the Presbyterian Church, the colored students under ther
cnre of the Board are enjoined to remain in connection with their proper Presbyteries^
and to attend in both their preparatory and Collegiate courses, schools, either under the
care of the Freedmen's Board, or taught by teachers in connection with our Church.

4^The Board of Education has been instrncted hereafter invariably to reoaire, in connection with
the acceptance of a student, and before promising him aid from the ftinds or the Church, definite an-
swers to several important questions which may conveniently be given according to the form below.
A candidate, in order to receive aid. ma^t have been a member of the Presbyterian Church, or some
cloeely related body. ft>r at least one year : be reoommended to Presbytery by his church senion ; and,
except in extraordinary cases (oulored studtnts, and those of foreign populationa, especially), be pre-

The recommendation, both by church session and Presbytery, must be renewed annually, if poasible
at the spring meeting of the Presbytery, and should stato the lowest possible amount within the limits
set by the General Assembly that the candidate requires to meet his necessary expenses for the year.
f9*The following form will also answer for Annual Renewals ; such questions as that of the
candidate's age, and that of his length of time in communion with the Church, if answered
before, evidently need not be repeated; but, on consideration, it will be manifest that almost all
the other questions deserve annual inquiry.

REPORT OF THE STANDING COMMITTEE
THE BOARD OP PUBUGATION AND SABBATH-
SCHOOL WORK.
The Standing Committee on Publication and Sabbath-school Work
respectfuUj reports :
That oar Board of Pnblioation and Sabbath-school Work is an in-
dispensable instrument of church edification and church extension
none can doubt. A sound and wholesome Christian literature is by it
prepared for our churches and their work, and the seeds of future
churches are diligently sown in destitute regions bj its Sabbath-school
missionaries. No apparent or real defect in the management of the
Board should in the least weaken our confidence in this department of
the Church as a most valuable factor in its prosperity. If any defect
should be found in the administration, it may readily be corrected ;
but it would be sad indeed if from any such cause there should be any
alienation on the part of the Church in regard to an engine of such
power for good. While we, therefore, very properly examine and see
that the machinery is rightly worked, let us uphold the institution
with loyal hearts and ready hands.
The presentation of a select literature in harmony with our faith,
calculated to educate our people in scriptural knowledge and to mould
their minds in godliness, is a potent help to the pulpit, and in many
cases a conseryative power where there is no pulpit. The many helps
to Bible study, both for home use and for Sabbath-school instruction,
which are issued by our Board, are carefully and wisely prepared and
make Bible study attractive, while they give point to the teachings of
the school. We may gain some notion of the value of these by imag-
ining what a set-back our Sabbath-schools would experience by their
loss. A well-selected Sabbath-school library becomes very largely, in
parts of our country, the staple reading of the fimily at home, and so
proves an efficient agent in leading both old and young to the source
of truth. In some places the Sabbath-school library is the only
library of a neighborhood, and it forms the thought of the community.

It is also most important that books which illustrate our Presbyter-
ian system sboold be fonnd in the hands of all pastors and teachers,
so that its excellences should be known, appreciated, defended and
proclaimed by those who are in positions of influence ; and this can be
done only by the publications of a Board whose imprimatur estab-
lishes the orthodoxy of the volumes it issues.
The direct missionary work of the Board is largely that of a fore-
runner to the work of the Board of Home Missions. It can occupy
a field newly opened before the home missionary can reach it. It
collects materials and starts a life to which the home missionaiy comes
afterward. It plants the school, which the home missionary converts
into a church. It visits a settlement before the houses are roofed in,
and gathers the children to receive religious instruction, it may be
under a tree or in a bam. It seeks to sanctify a community at ito
birth, and so prepare the way for larger spiritual applications. The
work is laborious and foil of vicissitude, requiring &ith and seal and
tact that are not extensively found. The self-denying Sabbath-school
missionary meets with every variety of experience. He pushes on
under the burning heat of summer and the biting cold of winter.
He puts up with a rough diet and rougher lodgment. He faces
objections, indifference, rudeness and open opposition. He is satisfied
with a meager salary, and finds his reward in a good conscience and
the knowledge that he is working in the front for his Lord and
Saviour. With all the disadvantages that he meets, he founds the
school, he establishes its system, he appoints its officers, he instructs
them in its manner of conduct, and, having fairly constructed and
launched the new enterprise with earnest prayer, he prooeeds to the
next station to repeat the useful work there. These are the noble
men and this the noble work which our Board has been faithfolly
and efficiently sustaining, and the results have been such as to awaken
our liveliest gratitude to God. Eleven hundred and thirty-nine Sab-
bath-schools have been established during the year, from which
already a large number of churches have been organised. In these
Sabbath-schools are 4542 teachers and 38,836 scholars. The mis-
sionaries have visited and otherwise aided 2616 Sabbath-schoob,
visiting 65,920 families and blessing them with the word of God and
prayer. They have conducted Sabbath-school institutes and conven-
tions, preached and assisted at evangelistic meetings, and have co-
operated with synodical and home missionaries in organising churches
Digitized by VjOOQIC
and in proTiding them with places of worship. Even though a quarter
of the schools estahlished may not sorvive, the three quarters that are
maintained are powerful factors in the evangelization of the newly-settled
regions. The missionaries have, during the past year, sold 7118 and
given away 46,344 volumes other than Bibles. The whole number of
volumes, including Bibles, that have been distributed by the Sabbath-
school and Missionary department is 73,873. Special efforts were
used to make Children's Day a useful day for the work, and attractive
literature Was distributed to that end. The amount of at least $28,000,
the contributions of that day, was ample proof of the wisdom of this
measure.
Your committee cannot leave the matter of the Sabbath-school depart-
ment without expressing their decided approbation of the method
adopted of employing seminaiy students in the missionary work, a
method so beneficial to the students and proved so successful in its
missionary results.
Twenty-two bound volumes and eight new tracts have been pub-
lished during the year. The eleven periodicals of the Board have
been continued with increasing popularity, benefit and pecuniary
profit. The Westminster Teacher, as one of them, takes very high
rank as an exegetical and homiletic aid to the Sabbath-school teacher.
The Business Department reports 1,136,250 books or tracts and
20.764,822 periodicals as issued during the year. There are twenty-
two depositories and branch houses, including one in London, one in
Montreal, one in Toronto and one in Winnipeg.
The sales for the year in books and tracts amounted to $106,123.86,
and those from periodioak to $134,981.89, making a total of
$241,106.76.
The receipts from all sources were $337,958.94, which with the
balance from last year makes a total of $422,642.71. The entire
expenditures were $352,999.29. The balance in the treasury on
April 1, 1890, was $69,643.42. This balance includes the balance
due to " The Church at Home and Abroad." The net profiu of the
year have been $16,943.16, of which two thirds ($11,295.44) have
been placed to the credit of the Sabbath-school and Missionary fund,
and the remaining one third has been added to the capital stock,
which now amounts to $612,128.76, three fifths of which is unpro-
ductive property.
We can look on this Board and the commodious house which it
Digitized by VjOOQIC
occupies (and in which are furnished, without rent, accommodations
for the Boards of Education and Ministerial Relief, the Woman's
Foreign Missionary Society and the preshyterial gatiherings) with
justifiable denominational pride, and with devout gratitude to God
that our Church is so well furnished with needful apparatus for its
extended work.
The members of the Board have shown iheir devotion to the inter-
ests of the Church, and although there has been a difference of opinion
as to the proper economy of administration, we cannot but recognise
the high character and Christian faithfulness of those to whom the
General Assembly has intrusted this important branch of the Church's
work.
To them and to the honored secretary of the Board we would
accord the praise that is their due.
Your committee would submit to the Assembly the following reso-
lutions for its adoption :
Retolvedj 1. That we regard the Board of Publication and Sabbath-
school Work as one of the most important agents of home evangeliia-
tion, and that as such its missionary work should be liberally supported
by all our churches.
Resolved^ 2. That our churches should, as far as possible, use and
circulate the publications of our own Board as a sound and wholesome
Christian literature for both young and old.
Resolvedy 3. That pastors be urged to explain to their people the
difference between the business and missionary departments of the
Board, and show them that the latter depends chiefly on the contri-
butions from the churches and Sabbath-schools.
Resolved, 4. That the Board take into consideration the advisabil-
ity of publishing in the (German, Spanish and Scandinavian languages
such Sabbath-school books and papers as may supply a want in our
own schools, where pupils speaking these languages are found.
Resolved, 5. That the Rev. John Hemphill, D.D., having been
elected by the Board in the place of the Rev. S. W. Dana, D.D., who
declined the position to which he was elected by the last Assembly,
the Rev. J. Stuart Dickson having been elected by the Board to fill a
vacancy caused by the resignation of the Rev. H. C. McCook, D.D.,
and Franklin L. Sheppard, Esq., having been elected by the Board
to fill a vacancy caused by the resignation of the Hon. George S.
Graham, those elections are hereby confirmed.
Digitized by VjOOQIC
Resolved, 6. That the terms of office of the following gentlemen,
expiring in June, 1800, the same are hereby elected to the Board for
three years, to wit : Ministers — Benjamin L. Agnew, D.D., Thomas A.
Hoyt, D.D., John Hemphill, D.D., Rev. J. Stuart Dickson. Elders
—Samuel C. Perkins, LL.D., Robert N. Willson, Franklin L. Shep-
pard, and as the Hon. John Scott declines a re-election, Mr. W. H.
Parsons, of New York, is elected to the Board for three years.
The committee, having had referred to them an overture from the
Presbytery of Highland asking the Assembly to recommend for use
other hymnals than our own, or to make an arrangement for their
publication by our Board, recommend no action in the matter.
Respectfully submitted.

FIFTY-SECOND ANNUAL REPORT
OF THE
PRESBYTERIAN BOARD OF PUBLICATION AND
SABBATH-SOHOOL WORK.
The Presbyterian Board of Publication and Sabbath-school
Work respectfully presents to the General Aseembly its Fifty-
second Annual Report, covering the year beginning April 1,
1889, and closing March 31, 1890.
During the year the following gentlemen have been elected
by the Board to fill vacancies, namely. Rev. John D. Hemp-
hill, D.D., in place of Rev. S. W. Dana, D.D., who declined
the position to which he had been elected by the last Assembly;
Rev. J. S. Dickson, in place of Rev. H. C. McCook, D.D.,
resigned; and Franklin L. Sheppard, Esq., in place of the
Hon. George S. Graham, resigned. The confirmation of the
appointment of all these gentlemen, all of whom belong to the
class whose term of office will expire next month, is requested.
The term of office of the following gentlemen will expire in
June, 1890, viz. :
MINISTERS. ELDSBS.
Rev. BeDJamin L. Agnew, D.D., Samuel C. Perkins, LL.D.,
Rev. Thomas A. Hoyt, D.D., Hon. John Scott,
Rev. John D. Hemphill, D.D., Hon. Robert N. Willson,
Rev. James Stuart Dickson. Franklin L. Sheppard.
WORK OF THE BOARD.
The Board reports, with gratitude to God, that it has had
vouchsafed to it a large measure of prosperity, and it trusts of
usefulness, during the year. All the departments have been pros-
pered. The Business Department closed the year with net profits
amounting to $16,948.16, which enabled it to pay over to the
Missionary Fund the sum of $11,295.44. Although the sale
Digitized by VjOOQIC
12 FrPTY-SBCOND ANNUAL REPORT OF THB BOARD OF [May,
of books and tracts was somewbat less tban tbat of last year,
the circalatioQ of tbe periodicals bas largely increased. The
Editorial Department, in addition to so conducting tbe period-
icals as to win the increased favor of tbe Church, as is man-
ifested by tbe increased subscription, bas been privileged to
add many interesting works to tbe list of its publications.
Tbe Sabbath-school and Missionary Department has been sig-
nally blessed. The contributions received have been greater
tban in any preceding year. It was enabled not only to place
a large number of student missionaries in tbe field last summer,
but also considerably to increase its force of permanent labor-
ers. It has been privileged to establish 1189 Sabbath-schools,
from which has already been organized a large number of
churches. It closes tbe year with a balance of $80,125.35,
which will justify it in employing a larger number of student
missionaries during the coming summer tban it has ever yet
commissioned.
THE BUSINESS RELATIONS BETWEEN THE BUSI-
NESS AND THE SABBATH-SCHOOL AND MIS-
SIONARY DEPARTMENTS.
In the year 1882 tbe General Assembly adopted tbe follow-
ing resolution of instruction, under which the Board bas con-
tinued to act to tbe present time — the Business Department
being substituted for tbe Publishing, and the Sabbath-school
and Missionary for tbat of Colportage, since tbe reorganiza-
tion in 1887 :
Resolved^ That the General Assembly instructs the Board of Publica-
tion to maintain a separation as complete as practicable between the
Publishing and the Colportage Departments in their business affairs, so
that the relation between the two in this respect shall be the same as
between the Publishing Department and any other purchaser — the terms
of sale to the Colportage Department to be as favorable as those offered
to any other purchaser.
As the Business Department offers to its most favored cus-
tomers in this country different rates of discount on different
classes of books and tracts, it was deemed expedient, in carry-
Digitized by VjtOOQIC
1890.] PUBLICATION AND SABBATH -SCHOOL WORK. 13
ing out the spirit of this instruction, for the convenience of
both departments in the keeping of accounts, that a uniform
discount, representing the average of the various rates of
discount, should be established on all purchases by the
Sabbath-school and Missionary Department. After careful
investigation it was estimated that a uniform rate of 30 per
cent, would place the latter department on the footing of the
most favored purchaser, and the Board determined that that
rate should be established. Subsequently the discount was
raised to 33^, at which rate it has been continued for several
years. As, however, misconceptions on this subject seem to
have arisen in some quarters, the Board at a recent meeting
adopted the following :
Resolvedj That the rule of allowing a uniform rate of discount to the
Sabbath-school and Missionary Department on all purchases of books
and tracts be rescinded, and that hereafter the Business Superintendent
be directed to allow to said Department on purchases of all classes of
books, tracts and periodicals the highest rates of discount allowed on the
same classes of publications to the most favored branch houses in this
country.
The adoption of the new rule, it is believed, will not materi-
ally affect the interests of the Sabbath-school and Missionary
Department. It is proper to add that the discount on peri-
odicals has always been that allowed to the most favored
purchasers.
PAPERS FOR THE PEOPLE.
It was confidently expected when the last report was pre-
sented to the Assembly that the publication of the projected
series of Papers for the People would be shortly commenced.
A large number of essays had been promised to the Board by
distinguished writers. Various circumstances, however, pre-
vented the fulfillment of these promises, and the publication
was necessarily deferred. As soon as a sufficient number of
essays is in the hands of the secretary to justify such action,
which it is hoped will be in the near future, publication will be
entered upon.

14 FIFTT-8EC0ND ANNOAL BBPORT OF THK BOARD OF [May,
SABBATH-SCHOOL AND MISSIONARY DEPARTMENJ.
The year covered by this Report has been one of unex-
ampled prosperity in the history of the Sabbath-school and
Missionary Department. The object and methods of the Depart-
ment have been better understood, and consequently presby-
teries, pastors, sessions, churches and Sabbath-schools have
more generally sympathized with its efforts and more liberally
supported them. Our missionaries have learned much by ex-
perience and have become more efficient. Our efforts have
been crowned by divine Providence with results the largest yet
achieved. We thank God for the past and take courage for
the future.
WORK OF THK DEPARTMENT.
The functions of this Department are four — 1. Sabbath-
school extension in the destitute portions of the land. 2. The
distribution of our literature by grants and by missionary sales.
3. The elevation and improvement of the Sabbath-school work
of our churches. 4. The collection and presentation to the
General Assembly of Sabbath-school statistics.
SABBATH-SOHOOL EXTENSION.
This is effected principally through the agency of carefully-
selected Sabbath-school missionaries. This work, however, is
largely aided by the distribution of religious literature.
SABBATH-SCHOOL MISSIONARIES.
Two classes of missionaries are employed, styled respectively
permanent and temporary.
Of permanent missionaries there were in commission at the
beginning of the year 34. Of these 6 have been retired, and
16 have been added to the force. The number now in oom-
Digitized by VjOOQIC

mission is 44. These are stationed in 24 states and territories,
viz., Galifomia, Washington, Oregon, Wyoming, Colorado,
New Mexico, Kansas, Indian Territory, Nebraska, North Da-
kota, South Dakota, Minnesota, Iowa, Missouri, Wisconsin,
Michigan, Indiana, Kentucky, West Virginia, Tennessee, Vir-
ginia, North Carolina, South Carolina and Florida.
During the last summer there were sent into the field (78)
seventy-eight temporary missionaries — students selected from
our theological seminaries and appointed to labor during their
four months' vacation. These young men labored with fidelity
and success. God enabled them to accomplish great things for
Christ by giving them favor with the presbyteries, pastors and
people. They also have gained invaluable experience in view
of their future ministry.
The total number of missionaries, permanent and temporary,
in our employ during the last year was (128) one hundred and
twenty-eight.
RESUME OF RESULTS.
During the year our missionaries directly organized 1139
new Sabbath- schools, with a personnel of 4542 teachers and
38,836 scholars— a total of 43,378 individuals.
In addition to the foregoing, 109 schools have been organ-
ised under the offer of the Board to supply hymn-books, lesson
helps, papers and Bibles to any man or woman establishing a
Presbyterian Sabbath-school. It thus appears that there have
been organized during the year, under the direct or indirect
agency of the Board, 1248 new Sabbath-schools, having a
membership of over 47,000 teachers and scholars.
Our missionaries have visited and otherwise aided 2616 Sab-
bath-schools. They have delivered 5889 addresses, visited
65,920 families and travelled 802,493 miles.
It may aid us, in appreciating the work performed by these
laborers, to recognize that oh an average they organized on
each of the 365 days of the year three new Sabbath-schools,
of 118 members in all. Each of the 52 Sabbaths of the
year covered by this Report witnessed the organization of

more than 21 new Sabbath-schools, with over 834 teachers
and scholars.
No numerals, however, can set forth the best results of work
done for Christ and his Church by these men. In regions of
our land destitute of religious services, where the Sabbath is
unrecognized or desecrated, they have gone from house to
house, into 65,000 families, with the gospel of Christ on Uieir
lips and on the printed page, blessing these families with the
word of God and prayer. They have sought and brought into
the fold the scattered sheep of the good Shepherd. They have
conducted Sabbath*Bchool institutes and conventions. They
have preached in the mode appropriate to them as frequently
as most pastors. They have assisted in evangelistic meetings.
During the winter, when field operations were impracticable,
they have co-operated with synodical and home missionaries in
organizing churches and in providing for them places of worship.
Into new settlements they have often gone in the very nick of
time to determine their future character by bringing their youth
and children into the church and the school. They have been
scouts, at once a pioneer corps and an advance guard for the
army of Christ.
PERMANBNCT OF THE NEW SCHOOLS.
Will these newly-organized schools live ? From the outset,
the Department, in its instructions to its missionaries, has laid
the greatest emphasis on the direction not simply to organize,
but permanently to establish, Sabbath-schools. It is not easy
to estimate the difficulty of carrying out this direction. In
many localities it is difficult to find a man qualified to superin*
tend a school ; in many it is scarcely possible to secure a suf-
ficient number of competent teachers. In many northern re-
gions the country schools, on account of blockades of snow
and almost impassable roads, must suspend operation during
the winter. It is pleasing, however, to be able to state that in
the spring most of the suspended schools are reopened ; and
who is there that will despise the good accomplished by a Bible-
school maintained even six months in the year ?

The missionaries are instructed, wherever possible, to place
the new schools under the care of some neighboring Presbj*
terian church, of the committee of presbytery and of the
synodical missionary.
A systematic effort has been begun, and will be continued,
to ascertain the facts concerning the permanency of each school
organized by our missionaries.
We have received information concerning 695 of the 881
schools directly organized by our missionaries from April 1,
1888, to April 1, 1889. Of these, 474 are still maintained;
221 of them are no longer in existence. We have also
received accurate information that from the 474 living schools
reported, 85 churches have already been organized.
It should also be stated that, of the 117 schools indirectly
organized during that year through the offer of grants of Bibles,
hymn-books, lesson helps and papers, all are alive and active.
GRANTS.
In addition to the work done by living missionaries, as above
reported, this Department makes use of the printed gospel as
a method of evangelization. In the last twelve months it
has distributed 78,873 volumes of Christian literature, of
which 6,750 were Bibles. Of volumes, the missionaries sold
7,118, and gave away, other than Bibles, 46,344; and the
Sabbath-school and Missionary Committee made grants of
13,661. The number of pages of tracts and periodicals given
away by the missionaries was 2,703,755 ; the number granted
by the Sabbath-school and Missionary Committee was 9,509,-
257 ; which, together, make 12,213,012. The net value of the
grants made by the Department, through its committee and its
missionaries («. e., the exact cost to the Department), was
(14,246.52. The bare statement of the number of volumes
and of pages of Christian literature thus distributed will have-
but little meaning for the casual reader. It will, however^
possess unspeakable significance for every one who has learned
how God is pleased to use printed truth for the salvation of
men. It may enable us to appreciate the magnitude of these
2

18 FIFTY-SECOND ANNUAL REPORT OF THE BOARD OF [May,
grants to say that they average, for every working day in the
year, 236 volumes, and 89,000 pages of tracts and periodicals.
The number of Sabbath-schools assisted during the year by
these grants, most of which are entirely dependent for reading
matter upon them, was no less than 1,376. The number of
grants of books and tracts made to churches and individuals
was 446 ; so that the Department has made, altogether, 1,822
grants during the last twelve months, or more than six for each
working day of the year.
RECEIPTS AND EXPINDITURES.
The total receipts of this Department for its current fund,
during the year, were $87,608.35— of which $68,020.64 came
from churches and Sabbath-schools ; $3,511.63 from individual
contributors; $4,195.28 from interest on invested funds;
$485.86 from profits on sales by missionaries, and $11,295.44
from the Business Department, being two thirds of the net
profits of that Department for the year.
The total expenditures of the year were $92,201.66 — ^an
excess of $4,693.81 over the receipts. A statement of the
items of expenditure will be found in Statement No. 2, p. 43.
Concerning the balance on hand April 1, 1890, of $30,125.85,
it may be said that it is less by $4,698.31 than was the balance
on April 1, 1889. At the beginning of the field operations
of the summer, the balance is always greater than in the autumn
and winter, and it is proper that it should be. Already 88
theological students have been commissioned for work during
the coming summer. This will entail for their support and
expenses, and for the equipment of the Sabbath-schools which
they will organize, an expenditure of over $80,000, which will
exhaust the balance.
The trustees of the Board, during the year, have received
legacies, etc., amounting to $5,976.06, which will be added to
the permanent funds.
NOTABLE GIFTS.
A friend of this work contributes $800 a year for the salary

and expenses of one of our most efficient missionaries. He
has also contribated $1,200 this year, to be expended in sap-
porting temporary missionaries during the summer of 1890.
These gifts he has sent to us through his church Sabbath-
school. He also authorized us to publish the following munif-
icent offer :
" To ANY CHURCH OR SABBATH-SCHOOL WHICH WILL UNDER-
TAKE THE SUPPORT OF A MISSIONARY TO ORGANIZE SaBBATH-
schools, a gentleman guarantees $150 op the amount
necessary! So that you may have your own mission-
ary IN THE FIELD, REPORTING DIRECT TO YOUR SaBBATH-
SCHOOL, BY SENDING TO THIS TREASURY $550."
This offer was embraced by the First Presbyterian Church
and Sabbath-school of Bridgeport, Conn., which sent us $550 ;
and that church and school have now the satisfaction of
regarding a Sabbath-school missionary as peculiarly their
own.
A lady of the state of New York makes an annual
gift to this work of $600 for the support of a Sabbath-school
missionary in the South. Other large gifts have been made
to the cause of Sabbath-school missions by several churches
and schools.
children's day.
It is diflScult precisely to state the amount of contributions
received from Sabbath-schools on last " Children's Day," be-
cause many of them were sent in with those of the churches,
and many were not separated from the annual contributions
of the schools. It is safe, however, to say that it amounted
to considerably over $28,000. It is also worthy of record that
the efforts on Children's Day, instead of lessening, increase
the regular giving of the Sabbath-schools and churches.
Larger preparations than hitherto have been made for
the observance of this day in June next. Full supplies of
orders of worship, music, etc., are offered to Sabbath«schools
intending to observe it. It is hoped that the approaching
celebration may be an occasion of great spiritual profit to the

youth of onr churches, and that the contributions to Sabbath-
school work maj be largely increased.
CALLS FOB BXTBNSION.
Galls for increase of workers, and the enlargement of our
work, come to us from the states west of the Mississippi and
the Pacific slope. Immigration is pressing into Nebraska,
Dakota and Kansas, and demands immediate steps to provide
for the spiritual necessity of the immigrants. Montana and the
fresh fields of southern California, Washington and Oregon
are rapidly being opened to our work. Whatever we do for
these great regions must be done quickly.
In the states of the South, during the past year, there have
been organized 265 Sabbath-schools. Of these 54 were estab-
lished among the colored people ; 118 in the mountain region
of the South, and of West Virginia, eastern Kentucky and east
Tennessee.
But what are these among so many ? In addition to the de-
mand for the organization of Sabbath-schools, there is a loud
call for permanent missionaries, who should be located in cer-
tain communities, concentrating their labor and teaching until
those communities are ready for the organization of churches.
This somewhat new work will demand a large increase both of
men and of means.
CO-OPBRATION WITH OTHER BOARDS.
It has been our privilege, in the year that is past, to assist
the missionaries of our Foreign Board by favorably responding
to all their appeals for donations of books and other publica-
tions. To Persia, at one time, were sent 76 volames ; to Bra-
zil, of Portuguese publications to the net value of $40.17 ; to
Lahore, India, 35 volumes ; to Yokohama, Japan, 65 volumes.
Most of these were for the use of foreign colleges.
The missionaries of this Board have worked together in har-
mony with the missionaries of the Home Board, and they have
been of mutual assistance in their labors. Sabbath-school

literature has been freely supplied to all schools established by
missionaries in connection with our Church.
Encouraging letters have been received from the secretaries
of the Home Mission Board, and from its synodical mission-
aries.
AMERICAN BIBLE SOCIETT.
This noble society has, for another year, placed us under ob-
ligations, by supplying us freely with Bibles and Testaments
for gratuitous distribution.
ELEVATION AND IMPROVEMENT OF SABBATH-SCHOOLS.
This is one of the important functions of the Department.
It is carried out by the following methods :
1. Bibles for Reciting the Shorter Oatechism. — The offer
of a Bible to every scholar who shall perfectly recite the
Shorter Catechism is continued. During the year 2,716 have
been awarded. The total number that has been awarded since
the offer was first made is 5821.
As the Missionary Bible Fund was exhausted about January
1, 1890, by the draughts upon it for this purpose, the demand for
Bibles has been met from the Missionary Fund. It is contem-
plated to continue the offer upon the basis of the Missionary
Fund.
2. Institutes, Conventions and Assemblies. — ^A large number
of such meetings to stimulate and instruct the workers have
been held in various parts of the Church. The Department
has co-operated and assisted in these to a considerable extent
daring the year. The subject of teacher-training is constantly
before us, and time and labor are freely given to it.
3. Missionary/ Letters. — To each Sabbath-school that sends
a contribution to the Missionary Fund, a Sabbath^school mis-
sionary is assigned for part support. That school receives
quarterly a letter from its missionary. Three thousand schools
now receive such letters, and the result is a great increase in
the steady interest in this work.

will be generally filled.
Attention is called to the marked improvement in the contri-
butions of the Sabbath-schools to the Sabbath-school missionary
work of this Board and to the other Boards of our Church, as
shown in the above table, and as will appear in the summary
to be printed in the appendix to the Minutes of this Assembly.

PERIODICALS.
No new periodicals have been started during the past year,
and there have been no changes in the form of those regularly
issued. The full list is as follows: of lesson helps — The West-
minster Teacher^ The Westminster Question Bookj The West-
minster Quarterly, The Westminster Lesson Leaf, The West'
minster Primary Quarterly, The Westminster Primary Lessons,
The German Lesson Leaf; of illustrated papers — Forward,
The Sabbath-school Visitor, The Morning Star, The Sunbeam.
A few descriptiye words concerning each of these will explain
their character and object*
THB WESTHINSTBR TBACHER.
The Westminster Teacher is issued once a month. It is a
beautiful magazine, each number containing forty pages. It is
prepared specifically for the teachers and officers of Sabbath-
schools, but is used also by many Bible-class scholars. It
contains full and varied expositions of the International Bible
Lessons. Its aim is not merely to furnish exegetical notes,
but specially to aid teachers in applying the truths of Holy
Scripture to the consciences and lives of pupils. Warm com-
mendations of the lesson-work in the Teacher are constantly
received from persons who use it, in all parts of the world,
many of them from workers in other denominations. This
magazine also gives, each month, valuable editorial and con-
tributed articles. The past year a most helpful series of papers
on important doctrinal subjects was issued. It is published in
octavo form, monthly. Price, single copy by mail, per an-
num, 60 cents ; school subscriptions, to one address, 50 cents
each copy.
THE WESTMINSTER QUESTION BOOK.
The Westminster Question Booh, though mentioned among
the ^^ Bound Volumes," belongs also to the list of Lesson Helps.
It is a complete manual or hand-book, containing the Scripture
text, with Home Readings, Golden Texts, Lesson Plans, Shorter
Catechism, Notes, Questions and Practical Suggestions. It
Digitized by VjOOQIC
80 FIFTT-SSCOND ANNUAL BSPOBT OF THS BOABD OF [MftJ,
thus gives in a single handy and compact volume the basis for a
whole year's work. It is adapted to higher grade or senior
classes. Price, $12 per hundred, net ; single copies by mail,
15 cents.
THE WESTMINSTBB QUARTSRLT.
The Westminster Quarterly is adapted to older scholars.
It is used in intermediate and Bible-classes. It is issued
quarterly, and each number contains full lesson work for the
three months. It is an octavo of 86 pages, and is furnished
at the low rate of $12 for one hundred copies to one address,
for one year; single copies, 20 cents.
THB WESTMINSTBB PBIMABT QUARTERLY.
The Westminster Primary Quarterly is adapted to the little
people in primary classes. It is bright and attractive, with
easy explanations and suggestive questions and things to re-
member. It is prepared by Mrs. G. R. Alden (" Pansy ").
Price, school subscriptions, to one address, 100 copies per year,
$8, or 8 cents for each scholar.
THE WESTMINSTER LESSON LEAF.
The Lesson Leaf is prepared with special reference to inter-
mediate and younger scholars. It is issued monthly, but so
arranged that if desired the leaves can be separated and dis-
tributed to scholars weekly. Each lesson leaf contains one
lesson complete, with Scripture, Oolden Text, Catechism,
Notes, Questions, Practical Teachings. Price, school sub-
scriptions, to one address, 100 copies per year, $5 ; or 5 cents
yearly for each scholar.
The Question Bookj Quarterly^ and Lesson Leaf are pre-
pared by W. M. Rice, D.D.
THE WESTMINSTER PRIMARY LESSONS.
The Westminster Primary Lessons is a neat leaf, adapted
to the little people. It is issued monthly, but the leaves
may be separated and distributed weekly if preferred. It is
Digitized by VjOOQIC
1890.] PUBLICATION AND SABBATH-SCHOOL WORK. 81
prepared by Mrs. G. R. Alden (" Pansy "), and is illustrated.
Price, school subscriptions, to one address, 100 copies per year,
$5 ; or 5 cents yearly for each sdiolar.
THE GBRMAN LESSON LEAF.
The German Lesaon Leqf is prepared specifically for the
Sabbath-schools of our German congregations, and is heartily
appreciated by them. The limited number of Presbyterian
German churches renders a large and paying circulation of
this leaf impossible. It is published, however, as a help
which ought to be giyen to our excellent German people, even
at a financial loss. The price is the same as that of the West-
minster Lesson Leaf.
ILLUSTRATED PAPERS.
PORWARD.
Forward continues to grow in favor. It is designed for
older young people, of intermediate and Bible-classes. Its aim
is to furnish articles of an instructive and elevating character,
and yet to avoid being dull and heavy. The name of the paper
is suggestive and fitly embodies its aims — to lead its readers on
to better things, to inspire and help them upward and onward.
This periodical is attractively illustrated. It is published
twice each month, but may be taken either once or twice
a month as subscribers desire. Price, school subscriptions, to
one address, once a month, 100 copies per year, $15; twice a
month, 100 copies per year, $30.
THE SABBATH-SCHOOL VISITOR.
The Sabbath-School Visitor is the oldest of the periodicals
of the Board, but it has all the sprightliness and vigor of youth.
It is adapted to a class of readers a little younger than For-
ward. It is an illustrated four-page paper, each number con-
taining attractive and interesting matter adapted to children.
It is a welcome visitor in many thousands of homes. It is pub-
lished twice each month. It may, however, be taken either

once or twice a month, as preferred. Price, school subscrip-
tions, to one address, once a month, 100 copies per year, $10 ;
twice a month, 100 copies per year, $20*
THB MORNING STAR.
The Morning Star was started to meet the demand for a
paper at a small cost. It is of the same quality, grade and
style as the Visitor j but is only half the size. It is issued twice
a month, and may be taken once or twice a month as desired.
Price, school subscriptions, to one address, once a month, 100
copies per year, $5 ; twice a month, 100 copies per year, $10.
THB SUNBEAM.
The Sunbeam is issued weekly and is finely illustrated. Its
large circulation attests its popularity. It is designed for
children, and it is always full of pure and pleasant things for
the little ones. Price, school subscriptions, to one address,
$20 per 100 copies, for the year. No subscriptions taken
for less than a month.
Forward^ the Sabbath-School Visitor and the Morning Star
each being published twice a month, schools that so desire may
have four papers each month. The older scholars can receive
Forward and the Visitor each twice ; and the younger pupils
the Visitor and the Morning Star each twice. Then for the
little people the Sunbeam comes every Sabbath in the year.

BUSINESS DEPARTMENT.
This Department has charge of all the property of the
Board, and conducts all its business operations. Of these
operations, the most important are, first, the publication
(manufacture) of books, tracts and periodicals, and, secondly,
the placing of the publications on the market.
PUBLICATIONS.
According to the statement on p. 40 there have been pub-
lished during the year 1,186,250 books and tracts and
20,764,822 periodicals, which, together with 8,150 copies of
the Annual Report, make an aggregate of 21,909,222 publica-
tions for the year. There has been an increase over the pub-
lications of last year in books and tracts of 43,500 and in
periodicals of 1,871,143, a total increase in books, tracts and
periodicals of 1,414,648. There was an increase of 1,500 in
the number printed of copies of the Annual Report.
PLACING ON THB MAREBT.
This work continues to be performed, as was reported last
year, by advertising in the leading papers of our own and
afSliated denominations throughout the country, and through
the agency of the main store in Philadelphia and twenty-two
depositories and branch houses, eighteen of which are in our
own land, three in British America and one in England. These
agencies are as follows :

It should also be mentioned that our periodicals are still
further brought to the attention of churches and Sabbath-
schools through the medium of circulars addressed to pastors
and superintendents. Our Sabbath -school missionaries also
perform an important work in bringing all classes of our pub-
lications to the notice of those who dwell in missionary dis-
tricts.
PERIODICALS.
Our periodicals, including the lesson helps, designed prima-
rily for the use of Sabbath-school teachers and scholars, form
an instrumentality of incalculable power, not only for benefic-
ially influencing the young, but for the general diflfusion of
knowledge of the truth. Since the introduction of uniform
lessons into our Sabbath-schools, the Westmiiuter Teacher and
other lesson helps have largely superseded the use of Bible
Dictionaries and Commentaries. The information that formerly
had to be sought by teachers and scholars in these volumes is
now culled out by skillful hands, and is presented week by
week to those that need it and as it is needed.
These periodicals form one great system which is not only

of inestimable benefit to the Church at large, but is remuner-
ative to the Board. Some of these are published at a pecun-
iary loss ; the deficiency, however, is more than counterbalanced
by the gains upon the others. Lists of both these classes will
be found on p. 41, in the balance sheet. The explanation of
the amount <^ balances against one of these classes is the same
as that given in preceding years — they are the accumulation
of losses since the establishment of the papers. They are
retained upon the balance sheet as being of the nature of
investments. All these, with the exception of the German
Leaf, give promise not only of reaching a paying basis, but of
ultimately liquidating the charge against them. The deficit in
the case of each for the year is as follows :

86 PIFTT-SECOND ANNUAL REPORT OP THE BOARD OP [May,
There has been an advance in the total amount of sales
npon those of last year of $10,869.07 — ^a decrease in the sale
of books and tracts of $8,086.28, but an increase in the sale
of periodicals of $18,955.85.
RECEIPTS AND EXPENDITURES.
The receipts into the treasury during the year from all
sources were $387,958.94. To this should be added the balance
in the treasury April 1, 1889, making a total of $422,642.71.
The entire expenditures have been $852,999.29.'^
The balance in the treasury, April 1, 1890, is $69,643.42.
This balance includes not only the balance belonging to the
different Departments of the Board, but also the one due to
''The Church at Home and Abroad." The total balance
belonging to the Business Department alone is $29,671.85.
NET PROPITS.
The net profits of the year have been $16,943.16.
Of this sum, two thirds^ or $11,295.44, has been placed to the
credit of the Sabbath-school and Missionary fund, in accordance
with the direction of the General Assembly. The remaining
thirdy or $5,647.72, has been added to the eapital stock.
CAPITAL STOCK.
This, at the beginning of the year, amounted to $506,481.04 ;
it is now reported at $512,128.76.
What was said two years ago in reference to the reported
amount of capital, and which was repeated last year, it is
proper here again to repeat, and by so doing to emphasize :
^' Much of what is so reported is unproductive. It consists
of books in the library ; of stereotype plates of books for which
* The apparent discrepancy between the preceding statements of " re-
ceipts " and " expenditures " and those given in the Treasurer's Report, page
42 (" cash received/' |433,938.I6 ; " cash paid/' $364,294.73), is due to the
fact that, in the report, each of the statements is increased by the amount
paid over from the Business Department to the Sabbath-school and Mission-
ary Department, viz., |1 1,295.44.

there is very little demand ; of printed sheets of books and
tracts that cannot in any considerable degree be placed at once
upon the market ; of investments in periodicals that have not
yet reached a paying basis ; and also of real estate. The re-
ported value of real estate, or in other words of the Publication
House, is upwards of $152,000. From the portions of this
house not used by the Board, a large rent would naturally be
expected by those not acquainted with the facts. In compli-
ance, however, with the well-known wishes of the donors, ofSces
free of charge are granted to the different Boards of the Church
located in Philadelphia. The rent value of these rooms together
with their heating and care cannot be less than $8000 per
annum. In reference to such rooms, the value of which is
included in its capital, the Board acts as a trustee in the in-
terest of the benevolent operations of the Church at large.
It is probable that the working capital of the Board does
not exceed $200,000 ; and that even this amount, in view of
the necessary line of the Board's operations, cannot be used
for the accretion of profits with aught approaching the power
with which it might be employed by an ordinary business
publisher."
In reference to the use of the Publication House, it is deemed
proper to insert the following extract from the Report of the
Special Committee on the Board of Publication that was ap-
pointed by the Assembly of 1884, which report was issued to
the Church by direction of the Assembly of 1885 :
"The noble buiMing occupied by the Board is not under its
sole occupancy. It is shared in common with the Boards of
Education, Ministerial Relief, the Woman's Foreign Mission-
ary Society and the Presbyterian ministerial brotherhood of
Philadelphia generally, yet is kept in repair, heated, lighted
and its taxes paid out of the earnings of the Board of Publica-
tion. In this estimate the choice rooms of the second floor, cov-
ering the entire Chestnut Street front, are occupied by the
Board of Education. The Board of Ministerial Relief occupies
an adjacent room, 18 by 88^ feet in size. A large assembly-
room, occupying the entire Sansom Street front, is reserved for
Digitized by VjOOQIC
38 FIFTY-SECOND ANNUAL RBPORT OF THE BOARD OF [May,
public meetings of presbyteries, ministers' meetings and women's
prayer-meetings, and a large room across the liall is reseryed
for committee meetings. On the third floor two rooms, 13 by
38^ feet in size, are occupied by the Woman's Foreign Mission-
ary Society."
Since the issuing of the report from which the foregoing
paragraph is quoted, a large room in the third story has been
appropriated to the Editor of *^ The Church at Home and
Abroad," and an additional room in the fourth story to the
Board of Ministerial Relief.
PROFITS AND BENBYOLBNT CONTRIBUTIONS OF THE BUSINESS
DEPARTMENT.
If the $8000 remitted in rent be added to the net profits of
the year, namely, $16,943.16, the aggregate amount would
be $24,943.16, or ten per cent, upon an active capital of
$250,000.
If the $8000 remitted be added to the $11,295.44 contributed
to the Sabbath-school and Missionary Department, the total
amount contributed by the Business Department to the be-
nevolent operations of the Church would aggregate $19,295.44.

THE CHURCH AT HOME AND ABROAD.
At the request of the committee appointed by the General
Assembljy the Board continues to be the publisher of this
magazine. The relations of the Board to this publication are,
however, different from those which it sustains to other period-
icals for which it is directly responsible.
The editor of the magazine is selected by the Assembly's
committee, and he works under its general direction, as does
also the Board itself, in this particular. The Board is an agent,
rather than the principal, in this connection, and assumes no
pecuniary responsibility in the matter.
No charge has been made by the Board for anything except
actual expenditures directly on account of the magazine, and
every effort has been adopted, through the machinery of the
Board, to further the success of the enterprise.
The amount of receipts'^ of the magazine for the year was
$25,222.16. The number of copies published was 240,314.

TWENTIETH ANNUAL REPORT
OF THE
mjm OF THE CHUEjCH EBECTlOpUND.
MAY, 1890.
To the General AssenMy of the
Fretbyterian Church in the UnUed States of America :
Acknowledging with grateful thanksgiving the Divine mercy, that
notwithstanding repeated bereavement has sustained and enlarged
its work the Board of the Church Erection Fund respectfully pre-
sents its twentieth annual report, as follows :
Twice during the year the summons from above has made a
vacancy in the ranks of its Trustees.
Upon the fifteenth of January, Stephen H. Thayer, Esq., and
upon the ninth of March, 1890, Judge Bennington F. Randolph were
called from earthly work to their rest and reward. Both had been
long members of the Board, Mr. Thayer having been one of the
original incorporators, and Judge Randolph having been elected in
187-3 ; and thus closely associated in its work for many years, they
were veterans and leaders in its service. Both were distinguished
members of the legal profession, and as trusted counselors of the
Board were alike ready to give freely in its interests, their time,
their strength, and their professional skill.
Although they bolh had passed in their years the line of three
score and ten, there had been no cessation of their interest or
activity in the cause of their Master, and their deaths in each
instance unexpected, oppressed with a deep sense of bereavement
not only the Board, but the churches in which they had long been
officers, and the community in which they were widely known and
honored. Appropriate resolutions of respect will be found recorded
upon the minutes of the Board.

4 ANNUAL REPORT.
Early in the year the Board also suffered a severe loss in
the death of the Rev. John Irwin, who for four years had acted as
its assistant secretary. For nearly a year his health had been man-
ifestly failing, and several months before his death, which occurred
upon the sixth of June, 1889, he was obliged to seek entire rest
from active work. Mr. Irwin came into the office of the Board
during the illness of the late Dr. Wilson, which rendered special
assistance necessary. His experience upon the mission fields of
the West, his business ability and his interest in the work especially
qualified him for usefulness, while his genial manners and ready
sympathy endeared him to all who were associated with him.
The workmen die, but the Church of Christ ever grows stronger
and stronger ; and each particular agency that bears a part in its>
progress, if worthy of its place, must each year keep pace in the
advance. Very manifestly this is the case with the work of church
erection. The continued multiplication of new congregations calls-
for constant additions to the number of church homes. Every
denomination of evangelical Christians is making rapid progress in
this broad land. It needs but a very brief glance at what the differ-
ent branches of the Church of Christ in our country are unitedly
doing, to answer the flippant sneers of those who allege that the
cross of a Divine Redeemer is losing its power. The growth of
churches, the number of communicant members more than keeps
pace with the increase of the population marvellous as it is. And
God is stirring up the hearts of His people to confirm the growth
and ensure its permanence by aiding these new congregations to
build the houses of God, they would be unable unassisted, them-
selves to erect. We cannot doubt that the work will be done. The
question of supreme interest to us is : Shall our beloved Church
have her full share in the work ? The report of this Board may aid
us in answering this question.
I.— THE PROGRESS OF THE WORK.
The progress of the work of this Board assumes a special inter-
est when it is considered that it is a very accurate guage of the
advance of the Church. Such advance is mamifested in two ways ;
by the number of new organizations that give proof of vigorous life,
and the number of older churches that outgrow their original
church homes. Both of these modes of progress are reflected in
the applications made to this Board and so far as the former
is concerned, the rate of advance is very accurately registered.
Manifestly as the Church grows larger, if the rate of increase is to
be maintained, the actual demands must each year be enlarged.
Digitized by VjOOQIC
ANNUAL REPORT. O
What do we find to be the facts ? For the last five years there
has been a steady increase both in the number of formal applica-
tions and in the aggregate amounts for which they have called.
There has also been a constant advance, although not in like
proportion, of the contributions from the churches. This progress
of the Board indicates a like forward movement in the Church — an
advance so quiet, so unnoticed, and yet so certain and unceasing
that it prophesies of the day when this nation shall be in fact what
it always has been in name, a Christian people ; while it reminds us
of Our Lord's word : "The kingdom of heaven cometh not with
observation."
The applications are usually from churches in the first or second
year of their existence, and thus the number received tells the story
•of the advance during the previous year of our missionary army.
Early in this present year it became evident that the year prece-
ding had been one of very great activity in missionary work, with
an advance all along the line. So rapidly did the applications
come in, that it seemed as if it would be impossible to find means
to meet them. Although in the later months the increase was not
so marked, yet the number of formal applications approved by the
presbyteries and received by the Board probably exceeds that of
any previous year since the Board has been in existence.
The total number thus received was for church edifices 200
and for manses 39, and the aggregate sum asked for was $120,870
for the church buildings and 115,675 for manses, or a total of
$136.545— which is $19,288 more than last year and •22,113 more
than the year before. These figures indicate a steady and marked
advance.
II.— THE RESOURCES COMMITTED TO THE BOARD.
To meet the growiAg demand as indicated above, it is neces-
sary that there should be year by year a corresponding increase in
the working income of the Board.
Were this the case, the forward movement would be quiet and
uninterrupted. When, however, the demands exceed the supply ;
when churches go forward, as most of our young missionary
churches do, confidently trusting in the organized instrumentalities
of the Assembly to give them the aid they need, then, if such help
is not forthcoming, hardship, peril and at times disaster ensue.
It is, therefore, a source of satisfaction to the Board that it can
report an increase in its ability to redeem the pledges that its organi-
zation involved ; it wishes that it could add that the increase has
been commensurate to the demand. The contributions from the
Digitized by VjrOOQlC
6 ANNUAL REPORT.
churches this year have exceeded those of last year $5,060.48, and
those of last year were •1,031.64 in advance of those of the year before
which in their turn were ^3,168.60 in excess of the year still pre-
ceding.
The total of the working income is materially affected in suc-
cessive years by the amount received from legacies, a very variable
quantity, and not to be largely accounted in forecasting the
resources of & new year
To this it may be added that the number of contributing
churches is slowly increasing — the total this year beng 63 greater
than last year and 213 in advatice of the year before.
It is evident, however, in view of the new churches added to our
roll that this slight increase hardly maintains the percentage of con-
tributing churches four years ago. Making every allowance for
the large number of weak and struggling churches many of them
without pastors, which have all that they can do to maintain a name
and a place upon the roll, it is, if not staitling, still a subject for grave
reflection, that so many congregations whom God has blessed are
content to spend so much at home while they send little or nothing
abroad. Many of these are churches that were themselves aided
in the days of their feebleness, and who then cheerfully promised
to return again what they had received.
The actual receipts which comprise the working income of the
Board have been for the year ending April 1, 1690, as follows :
Contributions from churches $62,976 21
Individual contributions 1,962 36
Legacies 6,539 23

III.— APPROPRIATION OF RESOURCES.
The funds entrusted to the Board are placed in its hands simply
for distribution, but its report is necessarily not a mere accounting.
It is not in the position of a distributing agent who has simply to
see that funds reach their appointed destination. It is accountable
for the wisdom with which the gifts of the Church are distributed,
and unfortunately too often there is added to its responsibility the
necessity of deciding who, when resources are insufficient for all,
will suffer least if they are withheld. Thus its task is one of great
delicacy and at times of embarrassing difficulty. It must arbitrate
between claims both of which cannot be fully met. It must cause
frequent disappointment and at times risk criticism and complaint.
Each church applying for aid realizes keenly its own great need,
and it is not strange, but is rather a proof of natural and commend-
able enthusiasm, that so many congregations conceive their case to
be a special one in behalf of which the Board may for once over-
step the rules of the Assembly. Where mistakes have been made
in the apportionment of funds, it has not been because the Board
has failed to interest itself and seek such information as was avail-
able. In this endeavor it has been greatly aided by the standing
committees of the presbyteries, for whose valuable aid and wise
counsel it would express its sincere acknowledgements. It also
recalls most gratefully the unselfish readiness of churches gener-
ally, even when disappointed, to appreciate the situation, and with-
out complaint assume unexpected burdens in order that insufficient
funds may be the more widely distributed.
1. Churches. — ^Appropriations have been made during the year
for 174 Church edifices distributed among 25 Synods and 92
Presbyteries. As is to be expected the centre of distribution geo-
graphically like the centre of population is each year moving west-
ward. Yet Kansas is so large a State, so nearly central to the
Union, and so attractive a field for enterprise that for the last four
years the centre has vibrated within its boundaries, and the State
itself has claimed until this year the largest number of grants. Yet
the number assigned even to this imperial State, is slowly decreas-
ing, 14 this year, 23 last year, 25 and 24 respectively in the years
next preceding.
Naming now the States that have received more than ten grants
in the order indicated by the number to each, the following is the
succession : Minnesota, 15 ; Kansas, 14 ; California, 14 ; Iowa,
13 ; Nebraska, 12.
In the aggregate the appropriations for Church edifices have
reached $96,394, being an increase of $8,420 over last year from

the general fund, and a falling off of $5,113 from our now nearly
exhausted special fund.
Adding to this the special gifts, the number of church edifices in
whose erection the Board was permitted to aid, amounted to 207
and the entire sum thus promised reached •112,061.04.
The actual payments have amounted to $107,412.92, of which
$15,657.04 were gifts designated by the donors to special cases, and
$1,324.88 were to make good losses by fire.
2. Manses. — The fourth year since the work of the Board was
extended to include manses is now completed, and the results of
the new departure can be estimated with a good degree of accuracy.
The first year, as was to be expected, made the largest demands
upon the fund. Many churches in all parts of the country were
ready and waiting for the opportunity to build homes for their
ministers. In each of the three succeeding years the number of
applications has been about the same, ranging from 30 to 42. Prob-
ably the number would be largely increased were the fund sufficient
to permit the Board to encourage the hope that it could, if it approved
them, respond favorably to all that might be sent. As, however, the
fund is only a little over $30,000, of which hardly a third is each
year available, and as the amounts needed average about $400, it
is evident that the number of loans in any one year cannot much
exceed 25.
Applications were received during the year from 39 churches,
asking for gifts or loans to the aggregate amount of $15,675.
Some of these requests came from churches that were building
houses of a more expensive character than was contemplated in
the plan of the Assembly, which directs the Board to fix " such
limit as will confine the work to the feebler and mission churches ;"
and some were from congregations that were in a position to
borrow elsewhere at a low rate of interest, but 31 of them were
to provide very modest homes for missionaries in the region west
of the Mississippi, and 11 of these were from New Mexico, the
Indian Territory and the Pacific Slope.
In response to these applications there were made 26 loans
aggregating $10,050, and one absolute grant of $150 to a missionary
church in Arizona.
There have been repayments from 64 churches aggregating
$6,956.42, and other contributions to the amount of $1,454.06.
The fund stands upon the books at the close of the year as
$33,207.2S.
Time has thus shown that the plan of loaning to supplement the
resources of the Church, the amount to be returned without interest
within three years is a good one. The apprehensions that suggested
Digitized by VjOOQIC
ANNUAL REPORT. * 9
themselves that congregations would feel burdened by the debt
have not been realized. In the great majority of cases repayments
have been made with reasonable punctuality, and the prospect is
good that the fund so generously provided will realize the expecta-
tion of the original donor and of others who have added to it, and
remain essentially intact to continue its beneficent provision in the
years that are to come.
The Board sees no reason to change its opinion expressed last
year that no more remunerative use of money could be made than
by increasing this fund to the full amount of 150,000.
IV.— RECAPITULATION.
Looking at the work as a whole, accounting appropriations, both
general and special, for church edifices and manses, and payments
of losses by fire, the total number of churches thus reached has been
250 ; and the aggregate amount pledged 1122,694.35.
All of the home synods, excepting Baltimore, are numbered upon
our roll, and all of the States and Territories within the bounds of
our Church. In fact, the border has been over-run for one little
church aided by a special gift, although counted in the presbytery
of Los Angeles, is in Lower California and under the Mexican flag.
The receipts from all sources available in the different depart-
ments of the work amounted to 1126,113.42; and the sum of all
payments, including expense of administration, was $129,473.80.
While the payments of any particular year are not dependent
simply upon its current receipts, but so far as they are disburse-
ments to meet appropriations made in previous years are provided
for by sums set aside at the time of appropriation, it is still
evident that taking one year with another, the Board can only pay
out what it receives. The consequence is that as the payments
have now for two or three years exceeded the receipts the small
reserve fund that was on hand four years ago is now entirely
exhausted. In other words the demand outruns the resources.
These payments indicate the churches that during the year have
reported the completion without debt of their houses of worship.
The number is 179, and a reference to the alphabetical list in the
appendix shows that the aggregate value of the property thus secured
was nearly a half million of dollars.
Upon the map accompanying this report the location of each
church is indicated by a number corresponding to the one opposite
its name in the annexed lists where the names are given by synods,
and in alphabetical order. The map as a whole gives at a glance an
idea of the reach of the work.

v.— BUSINESS DEPARTMENTS.
There are several important departments of the work of the
Board which must be carefully maintained either to protect and
conserve what has been done in the past, or to extend advice and
assistance aside from pecuniary aid to young churches proposing to
build. These departments, although essential to its successful
administration, add nothing to the income of the fioard, yet they
are necessarily each year demanding more time and expense in their
maintenance. ,
1. Mortgages, — As is well known the plan of the Assembly
requires that whenever a Church receives an appropriation it shall
give a mortgage to the Board. The mortgage draws no interest,
and is never due unless the Church is dissolved or abandons its
house of worship.
Experience proves that this provision is of the highest import-
ance. The Presbyterian Church would be recreant to its duty if it
refused to organize new churches until the character and perman-
ence of villages were settled beyond peradvcnture. No great and
far-reaching work can be carried on successfully without a certain
measure of over-work, of an expenditure of strength that at first
blush appears to be wasted. Thus as no one can unerringly prophecy
of the future of a new village, and as all churches organized in
missionary work, must ordinarily share the fate of the villages in
which they are placed, a certain per centage must in the end fall out
of line.
The mortgage is to provide against such contingency. It serves
also in the case of churches that grow strong, to remind them in
their prosperity of the aid they received in the days of infancy, and
to suggest that they return the gift to bless some <^er struggling
congregation. To show the practical effect it is only necessary to
say that during the year 14,304,79 have been received from churches
that have completed their work and have been dissolved, and
17,412.50 have been repaid by others out of their present prosperity.
The number of mortgages now held by the Board exceeds 3000,
covering grants to the amount of over 11,500,000, and securing
property valued at, at least, four times the amount, and probably
very much more.
2. Insurance. — Insurance policies to nearly an equal aiMHint
with the mortgages are also held, and as these must be renewed at
their expiration, their care and protection is itself a large item of
business — the expense of which must be added to the outlay of the
Board. Practically this insurance is for the benefit of the church, for
although, in case of loss, the Board recovers the amount insured,
Digitized by VjOOQIC
ANNUAL REPORT. 11
it is always ready to regrant the same to the church to aid in
rebuilding.
In connection with this plan of insurance there are two or three
points to which it may be well to call attention.
Under the system adopted by the Board, it is obliged to
effect all of its insurance in one way. The request comes very
frequently that the Board will accept for. its protection the
assignment of a policy already secured by the church. This the
Board is not able to do, both for the reason given above, and
also because in view of the large number of policies it holds
and the large amount of property involved, it would be almost
impossible, except under one unvarying system, to arrange its
business so as to care for all interests involved, including the
periodic renewal of the policies and the provision for the payment
of so large a number of premiums.
» Upon the other hand it is equally impracticable to cover by its
insurance a larger sum than its mortgage interest.
It should be, therefore, the universal rule for churches to secure
insurance for themselves in approved companies to an amount
that, together with the amount secured by the Board, shall equal
at least two-thirds of the value of the buildings. This, we are
sorry to say, is very often neglected. Case after case is reported
where after a fire has occurred it is revealed that the only insurance
is that held by the Board, and that too when the value of the build-
ing is fourfold greater than the amount of its mortgage, which alone
is protected. When in such cases the fire comes it leaves the
church almost crushed beneath its loss, and in great danger of
dying because unable to rebuild its home. During the year there
have been reported to the Board 15 cases of dam^ige from fire, and
losses aggregating 92,SD9.60 have been paid.
3. Architectural Plans. — Under the direction of the General
Assembly, the Board has procured many designs for churches
which it is always glad to send out for the benefit of congregations
contemplating building. The most of these designs are for simple
and inexpensive buildings. And when a design is chosen, there
can usually be furnished at a very moderate expense (little more
than nominal) the drawings, including the elevations, ground plan,
specifications and details for working. Such are sent, and with
advantage to the smaller churches, almost every day.
The Board had hoped to complete the preparation of a new
edition of its book of designs, before the close of the year, but
circumstances have delayed the publication. It is believed that in
the enlarged and improved form that is contemplated, it will be of
great service, especially to the smaller churches.

VI.— GENERAL OUTLOOK.
The demands of the future are likely to be fully equal to those
of the past, if they do not greatly surpass them.
The Church is constantly growing, and the admission of new
States to the Union and the opening of former Indian reservations
to the entrance of immigrants has given an impetus to population
in those young empires which can not fail to make itself felt in
increased demands upon all our missionary Boards.
But how can the Board respond unless the Church that stands
behind it puts the means into its hands ? It has been already shown
upon a previous page that for several years the demands have
outrun the resources, and that disastrous inability to give aid has
only been averted because a small reserve fund has come down
from previous less exhausting years. That fund is now exhausted
and the Board enters upon the new year with a treasury practically
empty.
It is proper here also to state that the special fund contributed
some years ago by a generous friend of the Board is now also
exhausted. The fund was of inestimable value in enabling the
Board to extend aid in exceptional cases, which, although well
worthy of assistance, were still outside of the explicit rules given by
the Assembly. The Board would esteem it a signal blessing if the
knowledge of the value of such a fund should prompt its replenish-
ment.
In short, if the work of this Board, so absolutely essential to the
miintenance of our noble missionary line, each year still further
advanced, is to be effective there must be an immediate and sub-
stantial addition to its resources. It is with gratitude that it
remembers that its receipts have yearly shown an advance, although
the increase is but small, and that a larger number of churches have
contributed ; but it still remains true, as has been already remarked,
that nearly one-third of the congregations upon the roll of the
Assembly give this Board no assistance.
On the other hand, it should be remembered by congregations
preparing to build that, owing to lack of funds or to other reasons,
it is not possible for the Board always to supply the deficit between
the subscription of the church and the cost of such house as will
entirely meet their wishes. In view of insufficient supplies, it
would seem that the most careful economy should be exercised by
all concerned, and no contracts made until it is clearly understood
whence will come the supplies. Moreover, if the Board rightly
interprets the rules of the Assembly, its legitimate work does not
include appropriations or loans of large amounts to complete
Digitized by VjOOQIC
ANNUAL REPORT. 13
edifices costing from $10,000 to $20,000. Yet not infrequently it
is asked so to do.
All uncertainty could be obviated and all danger of disappoint-
ment removed if in every case the Board were consulted at the
very inception of the movement. The natural and safe sequence
of steps in church building is : First, a lot with title in fte simple ;
second, as large a subscription as possible ; third, an estimate of
the cost of building ; fourth, an assurance of a grant from the
Board ; and fifth, the letting of the contract at a price within
the assured resources of the congregation. Too often all this is
reversed and the contract is made and the building commenced
even before the title to the lot is secured, much less the subscrip-
tion completed or the Board consulted. Hence anxiety, embarrass-
ment, debt, and not infrequently sad disaster.
The Board would also call attention to the probability that there
is a large wastage in response to private appeals to churches and
individuals. Natural as it is for churches that feel their need, to
make such appeals, the General Assembly has again and again in
terms discouraged the expedient. The very object sought in
organizing this Board was to systematize the matter of aid in church
erection and to relieve churches and individuals known to be
liberal, from being overwhelmed with appeals. Two or three con-
siderations emphasize the wisdom of carrying out the original
intention of the Assembly.
When contributions are given in response to appeals scattered
broad-cast over the Church, no one ever knows how much in the
aggregate is given or how wisely it is expended. Indeed, if the
enterprise after all is not carried through, the money is given in
vain.
Moreover, there is no security for the money if in after years
the church should be dissolved. Experience has shown that before
money is sent to a distant field it is well to know how much the
congregation itself is doing ; what is the need of its organization ;
what are the prospects of successful life ; and finally to be assured
that the edifice will be completed and the congregation left free
from debt. It is upon such facts as these systematically reported
and upon the approval of the presbytery, that the Board makes its
appropriations.
Thus while it is inevitable that donors should from time to time
be interested in special cases, and well that it should be so, the
Board ventures to suggest that many infelicities would be avoided
and many dangers averted if in such cases the givers would send
their contributions through the Board, directing, if they please, that
the amounts be immediately forwarded, or, still better, directing
Digitized by VjOOQIC
14 ANNUAL REPORT.
that they be held in trust until the church furnish to the Board an
assurance that with the aid provided it can complete its building
without debt.
VII.— ELECTION OF MEMBERS OF THE BOARD.
The term of office of the following members of the Board ex>
pires at this time, viz.:

Report of the Standing Committee on the
Board of Church Erection.
The Standing Committee on Church Erection would respectfully
report to the General Assembly :
That we have carefully examined "Twentieth Annual Report of
the Board of Church Erection Fund," the Treasurer's report and
the minutes of the Board for the year 1889-'90.
Again this year, as last, the Board reports loss by death among
its members, this time a double loss. In January Stephen H.
Thayer, one of the original incorporators of the Board, and in
March Judge Bennington F. Randolph, a member of the Board
since 1873, were called from their earthly service to their heavenly
reward. Both of these servants of the Master had lived their three
score years and ten, and yet their deaths were unexpected and a
sore bereavement. The Board has placed on its record a minute
of its sense of loss and respect for these fathers of the work, and
then well says : ** The workmen die, but the church of Christ ever
grows stronger and stronger."
In looking over the annual report it appears that a larger
number of churches have applied for aid during the past year than
ever before, and that the amount asked for is larger in the average
to each church than heretofore. The contributions from the
churches have likewise increased during the year, and the amount
of appropriations returned in payment of mortgages has increased,
and consequently the appropriations to the churches have increased ;
and yet the increase in the resources of the Board have not nearly
kept pace with the ever-increasing demands upon it. The demands
for assistance are far outrunning the means supplied. The church
needs to appreciate more fully the importance and exceeding
usefulness of this Board. It is not to be looked upon as one of
the minor agencies of the church. None is more important. One
of the Secretaries of the Foreign Board, with no little enthusiasm,
remarked to the Chairman of your Committee this week : " I do
not know of any part of the work of the church where a little
money will go so far and do more good than in the hands of the
Digitized by VjOOQIC
16 ANNUAL REPORT.
Church Erection Board." We might add that if a little does much
good here, larger means will do more.
Our home Board with the hundreds of thousands of dollars
placed at its disposal (and that is not enough) may go forward and
plant churches, but unless the Board of Church Erection comes
after to supply the means which enables these new and small
churches to provide for themselves permanent houses of worship
the evangelizing work of the church is certain to suffer great waste
and loss. The Synod of Kansas with its seven presbyteries and
nearly or quite four hundred churches has little more than come
to be of age, having been organized in *69, or possibly in '68.
And of all these four hundred churches in Kansas there are said to
be less than half a dozen which have not been aided by this Board.
For some years previous to the present Kansas has received a
larger number of appropriations than any other State. This year
Kansas takes second place, having received fourteen grants, which
is one less than Minnesota, while California has exactly the same^
fourteen; and Iowa and Nebraska come next with thirteen and
twelve each respectively.
During the year applications for aid in the erection of houses of
worship have been received from 200 churches. Appropriations
have been made to 174, and 179 have been reported completed
and dedicated without debt. While every home Synod in the
church, with the exception of Baltimore, has received aid for some of
its churches, yet more than two-thirds of the churches aided by this
Board lie west of the Mississippi river. The geographical center of
operations of this Board has for years vibrated within the State of
Kansas. Will another half century carry the center of our chnrch
population and influence across the great river? Certainly the
rapid development of our country in the West ought to inspire us
to undertake great things in the Lord's service. A single instance
will illustrate the importance of this cause and the rapidity with
which returns of many fold are secured in the church. It is not
yet twenty-five years since the home mission pastor of the Second
Church of Kansas City was sent East to New York to secure six
hundred dollars with which to erect their first house of worship.
Since then this church has become strong enough to have planted
numerous colonies, has had two General Assembly Moderators as
its pastor, has returned an hundredfold all that it ever received,
and now covets the whole General Assembly for next year. Was
not that humble home missionary building better than he knew
when in 1866 he trudged to New York for his $600 ?
The contributions to the general treasury of the 3,236 con-
Digitized by VjtOOQIC
ANNUAL REPORT. 17
t
tributing churches, including individual and special gifts, have
been •80,268.97. The total working income, including both funds,
has been «126,113.42.
The total amount of grants has been, for churches, •96,394;
for manses, $10,200 ; total for both objects, $106,694.
While there have been sixty-three more contributing churches
this year than last, yet this increase is not nearly in proportion to
the increase in the whole number of our churches.
It is feared that among the non-contributing churches there are
some that have received aid in past years which have forgotten or
neglected their solemn promise to make an annual contribution to
this cause.
It will be remembered that four years ago — in 1886 — the Board
received a special gift of $25,000, to be used as a '' Manse Fund,'
to be put oift in loans to churches, without interest for three years »
to assist in providing homes for ministers. In this work the
Assembly directed the Board to fix '^ such limit as will confine the
work to the feebler and mission churches," and also asked the
stronger churches for contributions to this fund. The success of
the Manse Fund has surpassed expectations. Thirty-nine churches
have applied for loans from this fund during the year, thirty-one of
this number being from churches west of the Mississippi river.
Twenty-six loans and one absolute grant (an exceptional case) have
been made. Sixty-four of the churches which have received aid
from the Manse Fund during the past four years have this pa«t
year returned their loans to the amount of $6,956.42. The total
amount of the Manse Fund is now $33,207.26, though such is the
nature of the fund that only about a third thereof is available for
new loans in any one year. It is certainly to be regretted that the
Assembly's recommendation of last year did not carry this fund to
the full amount asked for, namely, $50,000.
In conclusion, your Committee submits the following recom-
mendations for the action of the Assembly. We recommend ;
1. That this Assembly commends the faithfulness of the Board
and its Secretary, and approve their annual report, the Treasurer's
report and the miiuites of the Board as being full and admirably
kept and recorded.
2. That this Assembly calls the attention of such churches as
have received aid in the past, and are now strong and self- sustaining,
to the desirability of paying off the mortgages which stand against
their property. The conditions of these mortgages are such that no
legal claim can be enforced under them so long as the property
continues to be used for the purposes of worship according to our
Digitized by VjOOQIC
18 ANNUAL REPORT.
Presbyterian order. But the Assembly would press the moral
obligation upon the Christian consciences of these churches to
return the amount received just so soon as aireasonable degree of
financial strength has been attained. It is gratifying to know that
during the past year over seven thousand dollars ($7,412.50) have
been returned by churches out of their present prosperity to be
again sent forth to help other churches. The Assembly calls
attention to the fact that the rules of the Board permit a discharge
of the mortgage by an annual contribution to the Board's fund of^
ten per cent, of the original grant till the whole is paid, or by a
cash payment at one time of seventy-seven per cent, of the original
grant.
3. That churches Expecting to apply for aid be instructed to
consult with the Board at the earliest possible stage of their efforts
before indebtedness is incurred or too large plans adopted.
4. That aid-applying churches be reminded that the purpose of
the Board is to assist in providing comfortable houses for the
youthfully weak and not to provide enlargement or ornamentation
for the mature or the strong.
5. That churches are earnestly urged to send all their contribu-
tions for this cause through the treasury of the Board. Private
appeals for aid ought not to be encouraged, but emphatically
discouraged. All contributions, whether general or special, should
^ sent through ihe Board so as to secure them to the church.
. 6. That this Assembly emphasizes the importance of the Manse
Fund, and would press the churches to raise this as speedily as
possible to at least $50,000.
7. That this Assembly believes that $160,000, exclusive of the
Manse Fund, is urgently demanded for the use of this Board, and
hereby pleads with the churches to raise this amount for use during
the coming year. The urgency of this demand will appear greater
when it is known that the '^ Special Fund," which the Board has
had at its disposal for some years, is now exhausted. Is it not
possible that some other generous giver or givers stand ready to
establish another such fund as the '^ Stuart Fund " of the past ?
8. That the Assembly commends for the use of presbyteries and
churches expecting to apply for aid the plans for buildings, both
churches and manses, prepared under direction of the Board, and
which will be furnished at cost when applied for. A new book of
plans is soon*to be published by the Board.
9. That the following members of the Board whose terms of
office expire at the present time be re-elected, namely :
Digitized by VjOOQIC

main room, 50 in small room ; has between the two rooms sashes that
raise, so that the two rooms can be used together. The ceiling is
higher in the centre the sides being sloped up. All walls and ceiling
are plastered. It is wainscoted to height of window sills. The
pews are shown straight but curved ones can be used if preferred,
the difference in cost being very slight. The small room opposite
the vestibule can be used for Bible class, infant room, session room,
or any purpose to which such a room could be applied.

costly than the buildings in the erection of which this Board is
expected to aid. We receive frequent inquiries in regard to such
buildings, and the study of their arrangements is always of service,
even in the planning of much less expensive buildings.
The illustrations give a view of the edifice, and the arrange-
ment of its various parts. The extreme length, including the porte
cochere, is 189 feet, and the extreme width 131 feet. The main
audience room is cruciform, with a seating capacity of 600. Its
length, through the nave to back of chancel or apse, is 98 feet, and
its breadth across the transepts T8 feet. The nave is 44 feet wide,
and the transepts 5J6 feet wide. Two of the massive supporting
co!u/nns of the tower appear at the intersection of nave and tran--
septs and from them spring a fine series of arches, above which the
base of the tower is pierced on three sides with lantein lights. The
roofs are upheld by heavy trusses, and the ceilings are panelled in
v/jod.
The walls are of grey Belville stone, laid in rock-faced ashlar.
T!ie i'Uerior finish is in Southern pine and Michigan brown ash.
IJirp.Ms, cushions, walls, and glass, have harmonious shades of
brown and amber predominant Oas fixtures are in wrought iron.
The Chapel and Sunday-school rooms will accommodate be-
t.v::3n 400 2tnd 500 hundred, and are similarly finished with the
auditorium.
The large transept windows, 20 feet broad, and of equal height
at point of arch, are filled with elegant memorial glass, the designs
being the Ang^l of the Resurrection and the Good Shepherd with
the Heavenly Choir.
These are represented in the illustrations upon the opposite
page.
The architects, who have done admirable woik, are Fowler &
Hough of New York.

HARPER MEMORIAL CHURCH,
29th Street and Susquehanna Avenue, Philadelphia, Pa.
The Harper Memorial Church is constructed of stone from
Avondale, Pa., a light grey stone, trimmed with Indiana limestone.
The audience room is 56 by 68 feet, is entered through three doors,
two from tower and one through centre vestibule. The floor is bowled,
pitching 18 inches in 24 feet, the balance being level to the pulpit.
There is a side entrance to pulpit, from which access is also had to
audience room. The organ chamber is on the right side of pulpit,
arranged for pipe-organ. The seats are semi-circular, and will
accommodate 600. The chapel is separated from audience room
by means of sash partitions, all of which are movable, being hung ;
those in first floor descending into cellar, those in second ascending.
Immediately adjoining the audience room are two stories of class-
rooms— the main portion of the Sabbath-school running up through.
In the end of the Sabbath-school room next the street, flrst story is*
a large class-room accommodating 75 ; in the second, an infant
room accommodating 300. The whole Sabbath-school department
will accommodate 600. The two stories of class-rooms next the
audience room, accommodating 200, can all be opened into audience
room, so that, on special occasions the congregation can be
increased to 800. The stairways are ample and easy. Toilet rooms
are provided for the children. The audience room has open
timber ceiling. All rooms are wainscoted. All the windows glazed
with beautiful stained glass. The entire building is heated with
hot air.

ANNUAL REPORT
TO THE
GENERAL ASSEMBLY,
OF
MAY, 1890.
The Presbyterian Board of Relief for Disabled Min-
isters, AND THE Widows and Orphans of Deceased Ministers,
respedtfully presents to The General Assembly its Thirty-Fifth
Annual. Report. The Book of Minutes confining the proceed-
ings of the Board for the year from April i, 1889, to April i,
1890, is also herewith presented.
During the past year the Board has sustained a great loss in
the death of Rev. R. D. Harper, D. D., which occurred on the
third of January last. Dr. Harper was a member of this Board
for ten years, during all of which time he bore its interests upon
Lis heart. A further notice of this honored and beloved brother,
taken from the March number of the Church at Home andAbroady
will be found appended to this report.
In our Report to the Assembly of last year reference was
made to the *' History and Outlook of the Board," prepared by
direction of the Assembly for its centennial year, and printed in
pamphlet form for general distribution. A number of copies still
remain, and these will be sent to any address that may be for-
warded to the Office of the Board.
THE roll.
The number on the Roll of the Board to whom remittances
were sent upon the recommendation of the Presbyteries during
the year from April i, 1889, to April i, 1890, was 624: that is,
ministers, 241 ; widows of ministers, 358; orphan families, 24;
and one widow of a Medical Missionary placed upon our Roll
according to the directions of the last General Assembly. (See
printed Minutes page 32). The number of families provided for
during the year at the Ministers* House at Perth Amboy, N. J.,
3
Digitized by VjOOQIC
was iS, making upon the Roll of the Board during the past year
a total of 642 families, an increase of 27 over last year.
It should be borne in mind that there are more than 642
persims who share in these appropriations. These families are
often composed of aged couples ; or the minister, laid aside from
his adive duties, may have a wife and children to support. There
are also many families composed of dependent widows with little
children to be cared for.
The Presbyterial recommendations in their behalf came from
159 Presbyteries. The Presbytery of West Africa recommends
three families. The Missionaries who have returned home, and
who may need help in their sickness or old age, are of course
recommended by the Presbyteries with which they are conne<5led
in this country.
WITHDRAWALS FROM THE ROLL.
Besides several withdrawals from the Roll, owing to a change
in pecuniary circumstances or restored health which has rendered
further aid from the Board no longer necessary, forty-four names
have been removed from our roll by death — that is, twenty-six
ministers and eighteen widows. The death of the head of the
family, however, does not always withdraw the family from the
Roll of this Board. In many cases the helpless widow, or the
orphan children are still to be provided for.
ADDITIONS TO THE ROLL.
There have been seventy-seven families added to the Roll
during the year ; that is, forty-one ministers, thirty-five widows^
and one orphan family.
THE ministers' HOUSE.
The number of families at the Ministers' House has been
eighteen — in all twenty-one persons. For further information
respecting this Home for the sick and aged servants of the Church
the Board begs leave to refer the Assembly to its previous Reports,
and especially to the extended notice which appeared in the
Church at Home and Abroad for last May. This account,
containing also a picture of the Home, has been reprinted, and
copies will be sent to any one who may apply, in person or by
letter, to the office of the Board.
During the past year one of the aged guests, a beloved mother
in Israel, was called to the House not made with hands. Ad
Digitized by VjOOQIC
appreciative notice of this estimable lady appeared in our church
journals from the pen of Rev. Edward Cooper, D.D., who has
resided for some weeks at the Home, availing himself of the pro-
vision made by the Board — so long as there may be unoccupied
rooms — for ministers of our Church who may wish to enjoy tem-
porarily the privileges of the Home at their own charges. He
The Bible was her daily text-book and her example reflected its teachings
to ennoble, purify and encourage those who came within the circle of which
4he was the recognized centre and to whom she was a constant benediction.
In the freedom of her long cherished friendship she often alluded to the won-
derful course of God's gracious providence in making this old mansion, built
ibr the Colonial government with royal munificence, the delightful home for the
■i^ed and infirm laborer for Christ. Under the permanent management of the
Presbyterian Church there is secured an intelligent and faithful superintendence
with tender and sympathetic ministries to temporal and spiritual needs. She
often spoke of the goodness of God in granting her such a calm retreat for the
closing period of her life. There was but one place more dear to her ; and that
was the New Jerusalem which, in her last hours, her faith saw " coming down
from heaven," with the pearly gates open, through which she passed in the
early morning hours on the twenty-fourth day of January.
When the House was first opened, the Board was not
unmindful of the fact that, owing to the extreme old age and
infirm health of most of those who would seek its privileges, the
number of deaths would be large — at least, in proportion to the
number composing the Household. . And, in fa6l, there were
five deaths in a little more than a year after the first guest was
admitted.* The Board was, therefore, careful to provide a suit-
able burial lot in the beautiful cemetery at Perth Amboy. This
piece of hallowed ground is now nearly filled with the graves of
those who have fallen asleep ; and the Board, during the past year,
has thought it wise to purchase additional lots. Other expenses
during the year at the House, including a new roof, have made
more than the average demand upon our Treasury for the support
of the Home. We doubt not, however, that all the money
really needed to make this Home comfortable for the infirm
and aged servants of the Church will be regarded by the
Assembly as wisely spent; nor will the Assembly regret the
expenditure for an appropriate resting place for the beloved and
honored dead near the Home in which their declining years were

peacefully spent, and which they loved so well. The first recorded
purchase in the history of the race was that of a grave.*
LEGACIES.
It will be seen from the statement on page i8 that the Per*
manent Fund of the Board has been largely increased during the
past year by legacies, f The total of bequests received during the
year (all of which, unless the legatee directs otherwise, is placed
in .our Permanent Fund) is larger than the whole amount received
by the Board from legacies for the last eight years. No doubt
some of God's people have been influenced to remember this
Board in their wills from the general interest ip our work awak-
ened during the centennial year, when many new friends were
won to this cause, and this will account for some of the bequests
received during the past year. More will doubtless follow. But
among those whose names appear on page i8 were some who,
for many years, have shown their interest in the work of this
Board by large gifts sent annually to our Treasury. Our income
will therefore not be so largely increased as this great addition
to our permanent fund would suggest — unless indeed the places
of these annual contributors, who have passed away to their
reward on high, are taken by new friends of the cause whose
special gifts to the Treasury year by year will replace those that.
have now ceased.
THE TREASURY.
The past year has been exceptional in the history of the
Board in one res|)ect — our funds for current use have been suffi-
cient to meet ihc demands upon our Treasury without any special
appeal to the Churches, either through circulars or the col-
umns of the press. But this, it must be added, is due
to the large addition (115,575) to our income from the Cen-
tenary Fund ; for the appropriations last year were ^8,722
more than in the year previous, while the contributions from
Churches, Sabbath Schools and individuals, as will be seen from

f Those present at the last General Assembly will recall the telegram
read during one of the sessions, announcing large bequests to our Bpards by
an elder. Among these reported bequests was one for 150,000 for the Board
of Relief. This amount proved to be a mistake. The bequest was for $5,000.
Digitized by VjOOQIC
the comparative table given below, fell off ^3,216 ! It should
also be noted that we began the year with ^18,388 in the Treas-
ury— reduced, as was said in a foot note to the last Report, to
1639.80 by the payment of the appropriations for April and
May.* This year we begin with a balance of only 1 15, 263.
We have, therefore, employed in the expenditures of the year,
besides the current contributions and the interest from the
Permanent Fund, more than three thousand dollars of the receipts
of the previous year.
This announcement will be read with sorrow by those who are
interested in this cause and who are impressed with the sacred
duty the Church owes to it. They will justly regard as a calamity
to the Church any endowment of the Board that releases God's
people from annually contributing to its support.
Pastors and Elders need therefore to remind the people that
their efforts in the Centennial year will result in harm both to
the Church and to this cause should there follow any diminution
of their personal interest in this work. The General Assembly has,
year after year, recorded its conviction that at least one hundred
and fifty thousand dollars should be annually contributed for the
use of this Board. Last year, the contributions from Churches,
Sabbath Schools and individuals amounted to f 105,369 — a very
little more than two-thirds of the amount named by the Assembly
when the number of those upon our Roll was but little over half
the number we report now ! The year before last, these con-
tributions amounted to $108,586; the year before that (which
was the Centennial year*) to %\ 10,736. This steady falling off in
the annual contributions suggests the question whether the Elders
are really giving to the Pastors the active aid on behalf of this
Board which, all over the Church, they have so cordially ten-
dered ? The Board makes an earnest appeal to them to adopt
measures to arrest this steady decline. If the eldership of our
Church will move vigorously in the spirit of the action taken by
them at the General Assembly of 1885 at Cincinnati, and re-
peated at successive Assemblies and at meetings of Synods and
Presbyteries all over the land, there will surely be an increase,
'"'This year the situation (after the payments made for these two months
since the books were closed) is far worse. At our last meeting, May 3, not
only was our balance of 115,263 entirely used up, but our Treasury was
short nearly l7,ooo of the amount needed to pay the appropriations voted at
this meeting.

rather than a falling off, in the annual contributions to this Board ;
and we beg leave to call their attention to the action inaugurated
by the Presbytery of Lackawanna with a view of giving greater
eflSciency to the work of the Elders in behalf of this Board. It
will be found appended to this report. — ^page 14.

THE NEW RULE OF THE ASSEMBLY.
The last Assembly ordered a change in the methods of the
Board's administration with reference to honorably retired Min-
isters over seventy years of age who may have served the Pres-
byterian Church, on Mission fields or in the Pastorate, for a
period in the aggregate of thirty years. Such a minister under
the new rule has only to certify once for all these facts to Pres-
bytery for record upon its minutes, and the Board upon being
officially notified of this record is directed to pay the veteran
such an annual amount as he may need from the Board for his
support — not exceeding I300.
This important action was not hastily taken. The subject
was introduced in the previous Assembly (Philadelphia) by an
overture from the Presbytery of New Brunswick (see The
Church at Home and Abroad^ for June, 1888), requesting the
appointment of a Committee, to devise some plan by which the
honorably retired Ministers who have served the Church for a
long period, may draw from our Treasury an annual sum for
their support without being under the necessity of having their
application for aid *' renewed " by Presbytery year by year.
This overture was referred to the Assembly's Standing
♦This includes |i 5)575.51 interest from the Centenary Fund.
' Digitized by VjOOQIC
Committee upon Ministerial Relief, Governor Beaver, Chairman,
which recommended
that the subject matter of said overture be referred to a special Committee
of seven, of which the Secretary of the Board of Relief and one member of
said Board to be chosen by the Board itself, shall be members ; the other five
members of which shall be appointed by the Moderator, with instructions to
report upon the whole question involved in said Overture at the meeting of
the next General Assembly.
This recommendation was adopted by the Assembly, and the
Moderator appointed as Chairman of this Committee Rev. John
Dixon, D. D., Pastor of the First Church, Trenton, N. J., with
whom the Overture originated, and who brought to the consider-
ation of the whole subje<5l the results of wise and careful
study. The other members appointed by the Moderator were :
Ministers, D. R. Frazer, D. D., and Henry Van Dyke, D. D.;
Elders, Ezra M. Kingsley and Charles D. Morris. The Board
appointed its President, Elder George Junkin ; and these brethren,
with the Secretary of the Board as provided for by the resolution
of the Assembly, constituted the Committee which held several
meetings during the year.
From many personal interviews with the brethren and much
correspondence with those specially interested in this work in differ-
ent parts of the country, it soon became evident to the Committee
that there was a diversity of opinion with reference to making a
general provision, in the nature of an annuity or pension, for all
Ministers honorably retired after a certain age. While many
persons thought this should be done and no question raised as to
the aged Minister's need, many others (who were in the fullest
sympathy with the object and aims of the Board), stoutly
opposed it as unwise and impracticable — at least without an
adequate fund raised for the special purpose. The opinion
seemed to be very general that all appropriations from the Board
should, as heretofore, be placed in the hands only of those minis-
ters or widows who may be in need of such assistance, although
. all held the just view that the appropriations from this Board were
not to be regarded as charity, but as an acknowledgment of ser-
vices rendered to the church. It was also urged by many that
the honorably retired Ministers who may have spent their
long, useful and honored lives as teachers, or professors and
Presidents in our Colleges, or as Secretaries in our Boards
and in other such agencies (to say nothing of those grown old
Digitized by VjOOQIC
in secular employments) should depend for their retiring
allowance in old age, upon the Institution or Corporation
they have served — like their colleagues (not Ministers) engaged
in the very same work. But all agre,ed that the claims of those
worn-out Ministers whose lives had been spent either in the
Pastorate of the Presbyterian Church or upon its Mission fields,
at home or abroad, and who were in need, should have special
recognition by the Church ihey have served ; that it should be
clearly and emphatically stated by the Assembly that their claim
for support in old age was on account of such service and not
merely because they were poor, and that they should be exempt
from the rule of the Assembly requiring an annual recommenda-
tion of Presbytery before the Board can vote any appropriation.
The Committee therefore recommended the following
action, which was unanimously adopted by the Assembly :
Every hoaorably retired minister over seventy years of age, who b in
need, and who has served our Church as a missionary of the Home or For-
eign Board or as a pastor or stated supply for a period in the aggregate not
less than thirty years, shall be entitled by such service to draw from the Board
of Ministerial Relief an annual sum for his support without the necessity of
being annually recommended therefor by the Presbytery. When such a
minister shall certify to the Presbytery the fact an I amount of his need, not
exceeding I300 per. annum, it shall be the duty of the Stated Clerk to forward
the app ication to the Board, with his end)rsement there sn as to the years of
service such m'nister has rendered, his field or fields of labor, with the term
of service in each, and to report the same t6 Presbytery for record on its min-
utes. It shall then be the duty of the Board to pay such annual amount so
long as the applicant shall live, unless otherwise directed by the Presbytery or
the applicant himself, in view of a change in his circumstances that may make
the appropriation in whole or in part no longer necessary.
This new rule, it need scarcely be said, renders more digni-
fied and independent the position of many worn-out Pastors and
Missionaries already upon our Roll ; and nineteen of these aged
men have applied, during the past year, to be placed upon the
new list.
These faithful men, worn-out in the sacred office and
whose life-long services to our Church as Pastors and Mission-
aries are now a matter of honorable record in the Presbytery, are
saved from the humiliation of appearing before their brethren
year by year, with the pitiful story of their want, in order to secure
a ** recommendation *' for aid from this Board. They are also
saved from the embarrassing and painful delays in receiving their
Digitized by VjOOQIC
II
appropriations from the Board, as too frequently happens^
owing to the failure through some mishap or other of their
annual * 'renewals'* to-be promptly laid before the Board by
the proper authorities.
Seven other honorably retired Ministers, who had pre-
viously hesitated to avail themselves of the provision made by the
Church for the support of its worn-out Minister?, had the record
of their Pastoral and Missionary services placed upon the minutes
of the Presbytery, and their names were entered upon our new Roll.
It was well understood that the action of the Assembly would
add a few more names to those already upon our Roll. But the
Board is persuaded t;hat the Church will rejoice in the duty, as
alsain the privilege, of supplying the "need " of every one of
its ministers who is over seventy years of age, and who is honorably
retired by the Presbytery from the active duties of his sacred call*
ing after serving the Presbyterian Church for thirty years as a
Pastor or Missionary. And God's people will further rejoice
that the veteran has been assured by this special and emphatic
deliverance of the Church that " he is entitled by such service'^
to have his "need" removed; and that when all the facts of
his long and honored service are, once for all, a matter of record
in his Presbytery, he can depend upon receiving from this Board,
his modest remittance for the few remaining years of his life^
promptly and regularly, without the annual ** renewal " by Pres-
bytery.
The oldest of these ministers, placed upon the new *'Roll
of Honor,*' is in his ninety-fourth year. Eight are past four-
score. The average age is seventy-eight and the average number
of years spent in the ministry is forty-four. Nearly all of them
have certified to Presbytery that they need from the Board
for their support Three Hundred Dollars — the limit of the
amount fixed by the Assembly and which is the maximum appro-
priation made by the Board. Four asked for |2oo and one for
I150; and the entire sum paid by our great and wealthy Church
to these hventy-six veterans during the year, amounts to only
l7>25o — exactly three fourths of the annuity paid to each of the
Judges of our Supreme Court, upon his retirement from active
duties at the age of seventy.
The Board cannot but feel that they express the opinion of
the whole Church when they record their gratification at this
Digitized by VjOOQIC
T2
advanced step taken by the Assembly on behalf of these aged
Wards of the Church ; and also in expressing the hope that, with
% the increasing interest manifested in this sacred cause throughout
the Church and a more intelligent appreciation of the duty of the
people to the ministry, a better provision can be made for these
veterans and for all who are upon the roll of the Board. But a
little study of the Treasurer's Report for last year will show that
God's people must greatly enlarge their contributions to this
Cause before any advance c^ be made in the appropriations of
the Board. For, notwithstanding the large amount of interest
received from the Permanent Fund, had we begun the year with
no money in our treasury we should, have ended it with a debt of
13,125 ! In other words, the whole income of the Board for the
year just closed — contributions from all sources and the interest from
the Permanent Fuml-^wBS three thousand dollars less than the
sum needed to carry on the work of the year, even upon the
scale of the present small appropriations !
This fa<5l should be clearly stated by all Pastors to their
people, and it should be a stimulus to the Elders in supplement-
ing the appeals of the Pastor by personal solicitations throughout
the congregation.
The term of service of the following members of the Board
expires with the present Assembly : Rev. John A. Liggett, D. D.,
Rev. J. Henry Sharpe, D. D., Robert C. Ogden, Esq.,
John D. Wattles, Esq.
The vacancy occasioned by the death of Dr. Harper was
filled by the election by the Board of Rev. W. M. Paden to serve
during the remainder of the year. This vacancy is now to be
filled by the Assembly.
Respectfully submitted on behalf of the Board,

From the March number of 7%« Ckmrck at Htmu and Abroad,
REV. R. D. HARPER, D. D.
The Board of Ministerial Relief has met with a great loss in the death of
Rev. Robert D. Harper, D. D., which occurred on the third of January last.
For ten years he had occupied a seat in the Board, and, as was his wont in all
that he undertook, he was active, earnest, conscientious and faithful in the
discharge of bis duties. He was a man eminently wise in counsel, and always
prompt, as well as frank and courteous, in expressing his convictions. The
General Assembly in 1884 appointed him to the special duty of securing a
library for the Ministers* Home, under the care of the Board, at Perth Amboy.
Within a year tiiere was collected a valuable library as the result of his well-
directed and energetic efforts. . . But he bore upon his mind and heart all the
Interests of the Board. He never wearied in his efforts to advance its tender
and sacred work.
Dr. Harper had been spending a few days at the sea-shore to recuperate
for his next Sabbath's work. Although for several weeks he had not been in
robust health, there was no thought on the pai:t of his friends that he was in a
precarious condition. But shortly alter leaving Atlantic City with Mrs. Harper,
OD the way home, " he was not, for God took him."
A friend who was with him on the cars, and who had spent several days
at the same hotel with him at Atlantic City, writes in a note to the Secretary
of the Board:
On the day Dr. Haroer started for home we had after dinner a half hour's
talk at the hotel. It will be of special interest to you to know that our con-
versation was entirely upon the subject of ministerial relief. The doctor intro>
duced ^e subject as though 'it was one continually on his mind. He gave
medal expression of the joy he felt in the awakened interest throughout the
Church in this important work. Shortly after this interview was ended we left
for the cars, and the train had gone but a few miles when he suddenly
expired
This was perhaps his last "talk" on earth, and it was all upon the
Church's sacred duty to its worn-out servants. He had scarcely ceased to
dwell tenderly and lovingly upon this theme — the care of the suffering brethren
of Christ — when he entered into Christ's presence. Dare we not think that in
the welcome he received from the Master there were some such words as
these : " Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my
brethren, ye have done it unto me " ?
While our loss is his gain, we cannot but deeply feel that loss. We
mourn sincerely that we shall see his face no more.
And what Dr. Harper was in the Board of Relief, he was also in all the rela-
tions he sustained to his brethren in church work. This is shown by the
appreciative minute adopted by his presl>ytery, by the Philadelphia Association
of Ministers with which he .was connected, by the Presliyterian Historical
Society, and, above all, by the church and congregation he served so faith*
folly and by whom he was so devotedly loved.

FroB the February number of Tht ChmrcA tU Hcnu and Abroad,
THE AID OP THE ELDERSHIP.
The Presbytery of Chester (Synod of Pennsylvania) at its last meeting
Adopted the plan of the Lackawanna Presbytery (in the same Synod) to secure
the efficient aid of the eldership on behalf of the Board of Ministerial KelieC
A reference to thb plan was made in the December, 1888, number of this
journal (page 560), where some account was given of the remarkable move-
ment among the elders, which began at the General Assembly of 1885. The
elder-commissioners to the Assembly of that year adopted an address to their
fellow elders, in which they emphasized the special duty and obligation of the
eldership with reference to the Board of Ministerial Relief. Among tther
things they say :
During the present Assembly many of us have been deeply moved upon
this subject. We have felt a special call to go forward, actively and earnestly,
in this matter. The hearts of the pastors are with their " suffering brethren,"
but many of them feel a reluctance to press home this subject upon the hearts
and consciences of their people. It seems to them like pleading for themselves
or claiming their own right. We do not think there should be ihis reluc>ance,
but we can understand the feeling that underlies it, and we sympathize
with it. And it constitutes an obligation, oU the more imperative and sacred,
for the elders to give their hearts and hands to the important work of this
Board. We ought to esteem it both our duty and our privilege to bring this
cause before our people, so that bi every congregation systematic and liberal
contributions may be made to it.
If the people are instructed, they will promptly, heartily and generonsly
respond. Let us solemn^, and in the fear of God, charge ourselves with this
responsible duty.
At the next General Assembly the elder-commissioners not only " heartily
endorsed the address and appeal issued by the elders of the last General
Assembly,'' but took an advanced step toward rendering the proffered aid of the
eldership more efficient. They recommended —
That each session appoint one elder who shall charge himself with the
special duty of disseminating information in his church and awakening its
interest in the beneficent work of the Board, and who, on the day of the
annual collection, shall be ready himself to address the congwgation in behalf
of the Board in case the pastor shall consent.
This recommendation was endorsed by the Assembly, and the following
year at Omaha the Assembly resolved —
That the Assembly regards with favor the effort recently inaugurated to
enlist and utilize the interest and influence of the eldership in behalf of this
agency for the relief and help of those laid aside from the active work of the
Church. This Assembly would reiterate its approval of the special arrange-
ments suggested last year, by which an elder should be associated with the
pjistor in the oversight of the interests of this Board in the congregation.
A fall account of these successive steps, from the first meeting of the elders
at Cincinnati in 1885 to ^^ centennial year, is giv^ in " The History and Out-
look " of the Board, prepared by order of the Assembly.
It was in this centennial year (1888) that the Presbytery of Lackawanna
gave still greater efficiency to the plan recommended by the elders in 1886, and
endorsed by the Assemblies of 1886 and 1887. This was done by having the
presbytery appoint in each church the elder who shall « be associated with the
Digitized by VjOOQIC
»5
pastor in the oversight of the interests of thii Board in the congregation." It
w.s thought, by making this a presbyterial appointment, and requiring the elder
to report to presby ery of ** his d.ligence therein," that there would be an added
stimulus to the pfrformaDC:! of the sacred duty,
And now, by a printed circular issued by the efficient stated clerV, Dr.
Roberts, we learn t^at the Presbytery of Chester has tiken the same action.
These brethren recognize the fact that ** elders ought to be more deeply inter-
ested in this work," and also that " presbyterial overs^'ght is essential in order
to give the highest measure of success to this movement." As in the Presbytery
of Lackawanna, a nominating committee was appointed, so that the selection of
an elder in each congregation might be made afler due deliberation and con-
sultation with the other elders and with the pastors. The whole circular is
given below. It will be read with interest, not only by chairman of ministe-
rial relief committees in other presbyteries, but by all those who have been led
to feel a special interest in the sacred and important* work of this Board, and
who share in the conviction that God's people ought to be " roused to greater
zeal and earnestness in the cause " :
The Committee of the Presbytery of Chester on Ministerial Relief, in
their report. April, 1889, reminded presbytety that the General Assembly and
the Sjmod of Pennsylvania had, each of them, taken action favoring the appoint-
ment of one elder from each church to assist the pastor in bringing the caose of
ministerial relief before the people. They also laid before presbytery the spe-
cial reasons for such action, as follows:
1. That many pastors feel reluctant to press upon the hearts and con-
sciences of the people the claims of this Board feeling that it might seem as
thoagh they were pleading for themselves or claiming their own rights.
2. That elders ought to be more deeply interested in this work ; and by
these appointments at least one in eveiy session may thus be roused to greater
zeal and earnestness in the cause.
3. That increased activity on the part of the elders in one department
of church work prepares the way for increased activity in other departments.
4. And that pr6sbyterial oversight is essential in order to give the highest
measure of success to this movement.
The committee consequently made the following recommendations, which,
after some discussion, were adopted :
1. That the moderator appoint a committee of three, who shall nominate
to the presbytery one ilder from each church, who shall be specially charged
with the whole interests of this cause in his own church. He shall, under
overiight of the session, bring this cause before the people at least once a year
for their contributions. He shall also be required to report annually at the
spring meeting of presbytery his effort and success. His term of office shall be
limit^ to one year, subject to re-election by presbytery.
2. That the stated clerk shall notify each elder appointed and send a list
of all to the Secretary of the Board of Relief.
The nominating committee presented, later on in the session, a full list of
elders' names, which presbytery adopted as its appointment on the above work.
The names are given below, and each elder appointed is hereby notified of
his appointment.
Then follows the printed list of all the churches in the presbytery, with the
name of the elder in each church " specially charged with the whole interests
of this cause in his own church."
It should be added that although we began the year (April i) with a bal-
Digitized by VjOOQIC
i6
ance k the treasiuy of ^18,388, yet at the last meeting of the Board (Jannaiy)
our treasury was reported as overdrawn nearly fifteen thousand dollars ! Does
not this show the need of some special agency, like that of the eldership, to
rouse th^ churches everywhere to greater ** zeal and earnestness in the cause " ?
MBBTINQ8 AND RULBS OP THE BOARD.
The Board meets on the third Thursday of each month, except during
July and August, when a committee, appointed by the Board, acts upon all
matters requiring attention during the interim. All recommendations from
the Presbyteries for aid are carefully examined by a committee of the Board,
who report their conclusions at each meeting. Each case is then taken up by
itself, and after a consideration of all the facts, it is decided by a vote of the
Board. When the Board are unable to grant the appropriation asked for, the
Chairman of the Pk^sbyterial Committee sending the application is promptly
notified, and the reasons given for the decision. The following rules, approved
by the General Assembly, govern the Board in the administration of this Fund:
I. Only members of Presbyteries in connection with the General Assem-
bly, and the families of those who were at their death in such connection, are
entitled to aid. (See note below.)
* 2. All appropriations must be made on the recommendation of that
IVesbytery or of a Standing Committee of that Presbytery to which the appli-
cant, if a minister (and not Honorably Retired — see note below), belongs ; if
the application be for a widow or orphan children, it may be made by the
Presbytery within whose bounds the family resides or by the Presbytery with
which the minister was connected at the time of his death. The same rule
applies to the renewal of recommendations, if aid is continued.
3. Appropriations are made for one year, unless otherwise ordered; and
the renewals must be made from year to year, (See note below.)
4. Applications for aid should, in case of a minister, state his age, his
circumstances and the number of years he has been in the ministry; and io
the case of a deceased minister's family, the application should state the cir-
cumstances of the widow, and the sex and age of the children who are
dependent on her for support.
5. While the responsibility of recommending applicants rests with the
Presbyteries, and these recommendations largely govern the action of the
Board, yet there is reserved to the Board the right to appropriate according to
the merits of the case and the state of the treasury.
6. All the appropriations are paid in advance, provided the funds of the
Board will allow ; when the i^>propriation is at the rate of more than one
hundred and fifty dollars per annum, it is paid semi-annually in advance.
7. Applications for admission to the Presbyterian Ministers' House, at
Perth Amboy, are to be made in accordance with these Rules. Guests of the
House who, in the judgment of the Superintendent, are a hindrance to its
comfort and usefulness, shall be reported by her to the committee in charge,
who shall have power of removal, subject to the approval of the Board.
The General Assembly of 1885 directed " That women who have given
themselves to the Missionary Work be placed on the roll for the benefactions
Digitized by VjOOQIC
17
of this Board, upon the same conditions as ministers." The Assembly of 1888
modified this rult by adding " after five years of actual service under the care
of either the Home or the Foreign Board.'' The Assembly of 1889 directed ** as
the best method for the present for supplying a felt need " that the names of
" regularly appointed lay-Missionaries of the Foreign Board ** shall also be
placed upon the roll of the Board. The same Assembly also directed that
■** every honorably retired minister over seventy years of age, who is in need,
and who has served our Church as a missionary of the Home or Foreign
Board, or as a pastor, or stated supply, for a period in the aggregate not less
than thirty years, shall be entitled by such service to draw finom the Board of
Ministerial Relief an annual sum for his support without the necessity of being
annually recommended therfor by the Presbytery."

The standing committee on the Board of Ministerial Relief, having
examined the minutes and the report of the Board, recommend them to the
approval of the General Assembly.
Your committee invite the attention of the Genera! Assembly to the
following fac's: During the year from April I, 1889, to April i, 1890, in
compliance with the recommendation of Presbyteries, remtltinces of money
were sent to 241 ministers, to 358 widows of ministers, and to twenty-four
orphan families of ministers ; the whole number of families provided for during
the year at the Ministers' House at Perth Amboy, N. J., was eighteen, making
a total of 642 families on the roll of the Board^-an increase of twenty-seven
over last year.
The contribations during ths year from churches, Sabbath- schools and
individuals amounted to $105,369, a little more than two thirds of the sum
named by the last General Assembly as necessary to carry on the work of
the Board. The con'ributions of the previous year amounted to $108,586,
which was less by |2,ooo than the contributions of the preceding, the cen-
tennial year. ' This steady decrease in the gifts of the churches to this most
sacred cause may well be regarded with anxiety if not with alarm. But for
the interest of the Permanent Fund, amounting to 134,9 1 1. 84, the Board
would close the year in debt. If the effect of the endowment raised during
the centennial year is to release our people from a sense of their obligation to
contribute annually to this cause, that endowment will prove to be a calamity
rather than a blessing. No more sacred duty c in rest upon the church than
the duty to provide for the adequate support of her aged and infirm ministers
and the helpless families who are dependeit upon them. No more tender
appeal can be made to the hearts of God's people than that which interprets
the silent sufrerinjs of those who have worn themselves out in the service of
the church, and who« devotion to the spiritual welfare of others has prevented
theni'/rom making provision for the time of sickness and old age. If to visit
the fatherless and the widows in their affliction is an essential fruit and evi-
21

deoce of pure and undefiled religion — and if in the final judgment the test of,
fitness for the kingdom of heaven will be the question whether we have
ministered to Christ represented in His brethren — surelj these elementary
principles of our holy religion apply with double force to the care which the
church owes to her aged and infirm ministers. The obligation to save these
faithful and afflicted servants of Christ not only from bodily want, but from
the humiliation of being regarded as objects of common charity or pensioners
upon the bounty of the church, is not a mere matter of voluntary benevolence,
but a sacred debt, for the payment of which the head of the cliurch holds the
church to a strict account.
In view of the facts above recited ai^d of the obligation thus acknowledged,
your committee recommend to the General Assembly the adoption of the
following resolutions :
1. That this General Assembly acknowledges in behalf of the whole
church which we represent, the solemn obligation to provide for our infirm
and aged ministers, not as a matter of charity, but as a debt due alike to them
and to Christ ; and while expressing our tender sympathy for all those who in
the providence of God are in circumstances which require the aid this Board
is designed to furnish, we affectionately exhort them not to regard themselves
as pensioners upon the charity of the church in any humiliating sense.
2. This Assembly solemnly enjoins upon all the churches under our care
the duty of contributing annually to the fiinds of this Board, and we repeat
the earnest exhortation of former Assemblies to our ruling elders to see to it
that every church makes a contribution to this sacred cause.
3. This Assembly recommends to the churches under its care to contribute
to this Board during the coming year not less than |i 50,000, which in our
judgment is the lowest amount needed for the adequate prosecution of the
work of the Board.
Your committee recommend that the following members of the Board,
whose term of service expires with this Assembly, be re-appointed : Ministers^
John A. Ligget, D. D., Rev. Henry Shaipe, D. D ; Elders, Robert C. Ogden,
and John D. Wattles All of which is respectfiiUy submitted.
II. Report of the Secretary's Address.
(From the Daily Saraiogiany May 19th.)
Dr. Cattell, after calling the attention of the Assembly to a few fricts pre-
sented in the Report of the Board, turned to the New Rule adopted by the
Assembly of last year, by which a certain class of those aided by the Board —
the honorably retired Pastors and Missionaries over seventy years of age —
need no longer apply every year for a renewal of their Presbyterial recom-
mendations. This might seem to some only a slight change in the methods of
the administration of this Board ; yet, in the prominence it gives to the true
principle of service to the Church upon which the Board is founded ; and in
the comfort, independence and dignity it adds to the worn-out Ministers upon
our Roll, the Doctor regarded the action of the last Assembly as the most
important advance made in the cause of Ministerial Relief since 1849, when
the General Assembly first established a definite agency by which the Church
could care for its disabled ministers.

This subject had, indeed, early engaged the attention of the Sjmod of
Philadelphia, the first Synod of our Church organized in America, but the
Doctor argued that there was then no adequate conception of the whole duty
of the Church towards the Ministry. The " Corporation for the relief of poor
and distressed Presbyterian Ministers and of the poor and distressed widows
and children of Presbyterian Ministers," (chartered in 1759), was founded
upon very much the same principle as the annuity or mutual life insurance
companies now so common. Every Minister (as in the Mother Church of
Scotland) paid annually a fixed sum to constitute a Fund, out of which at his
death a certain annuity was paid to his widow for life and to his children for
a term of years. Annuities were also to be paid to the Minister himself should
he by sickness " be rendered incapable of all business whereby he might be
supported."
This was all very well in its way. But this Corporation by no means rep-
resented the Bible teaching as to the duty of the people in the support of those
*' that preach the Gospel." This duty is not wholly discharged when in return
for its immediate benefits a stipend is paid by the congregation to the. pastor
who serves it — a stipend which rarely permits him, even with the closest
economy, to lay by anything for his support in protracted sickness or old age,
or for his family after his death. It is the people who are to support the Min-
istry, and not the ministers themselves, as would virtually be the case if no
other provision be made for their support in sickness or old age than that which
b made through, the 'Mutual Benefit Associations and Brotherhoods for those
who have spent their lives in some one of the money making occupations.
Although this Corporation continued for many years to report to the Synod, and
then to the Assembly, it was regarded as a purely business matter. Collections
were now and then taken up for it in the Churches, and contributions were solicited
for it in the Mother Country, but the ground for these appeals seems always to
have been that these worn-out Ministers, and their dependent widows, were a
class of the worthy and deserving poor who ought to be aided in their efforts to
take care of themselves. God's people had not learned in those days to distioguisly
between the sacred duty of the Church to its poor and its no less sacred duty
to the Ministry. They had not carefully studied the rule for the support of
the Christian Ministry laid down by the Apostle in his first epistle to the
Corinthians. " Even so," said he, " hath the Lord ordained " — ^en so as it
had been ordained in the law of Moses to which he had just referred. When
the Levites. became too old for the laborious service in offering the sacrifices
at the Temple, were they not retired from their sacred duties and their support
continued just the same as in the days of their strength and usefulness ?
And so the whole matter of Ministerial support, in its relation to the sick
and worn-out Pastor, was left to drift along — the Corporation continuing to
represent the busimss idea and the collections in the churches the charity
idea: and this latter became more and more prominent as the Corporation
gradually withdrew from its relation to the Synod or to the Assembly, until
finally it ceased to report at all.
When, therefore, the General Assembly took up the subject during its
sessions in Pittsburg in 1849, i^ '^ ^^ wonder that this charity idea had taken
Digitized by VjOOQIC
24
deep hold upon the Giurch. While the Churches gladly welcomed this new
agency established by the Assembly for the care of our " disabled and super-
annuated Ministers, and widows and families of Presb3rterian Ministers, who
are in indigent circumstances," it was generally regarded only as an agency
by which the " duty of the Church " to the " poor and distressed " might be
better performed than by either the old Cbrporation or by the fitful and
uncertain efforts of private charity.
There were not wanting men in either branch of our Church, who recog-
nized the true principle upon which such an agency ought to be founded, but
this " charity" idea was firmly fixed in the minds of the people. And it has
prevailed to this day — confusing the mind of the Church as to the grounds
and the extent of its obligation to the Ministry, and needlessly adding to the
sorrow of these honored though dependent servants of the Church, by placing
them in the humiliating position of recipients of public charity.
I recall an incident which illustrates how largely this feeling has pene-
trated the Church. I was visiting one of the Synods, and the subject of
Ministerial Relief was discussed with great tenderness and interest. One
after another of the brethren arose and spoke earnestly and forcibly. Many
instances were given of faithful and honored servants of the Church who had
reached an old age of want. A leading member of the Synod spoke, from
his personal knowledge, of one of these suffering brethren of Christ, in a way
that moved all our hearts. He told how, with shattered health and after a.
long life of usefulness and honor, this brother had now been reduced to abso-
lute want. At a conference of his firiends it was agreed to make an application
to the Board of Relief for an appropriation of $300. This came to the know-
ledge of a friend of the speaker, one who also knew of the great worth and
eminent service of this brother, and said he : " No, he shall not go upon the-
Board. I claim the privilege myself of contributing the $^00"
Moderator, the whole Synod rang with applause. I too, could have heart-
ily joined in it to show (as perhaps many did^ appreciation of so generous an<
act on the part of this noble man ; but 1 confess that a pang shot through my
heart as I thought, that after all, the great assemblage was moved to this enthu-
siasm because the generous offer of this noble man had saved this brother from
the humiliation of going upon the Board ! Why should it have been more of
a humiliation for him to receive the $300 from this agency of the Church than
from the generosity of an individual ?
With such an opinion prevailin • so widely, is it a wonder that so many of
those upon the Board keenly feel this humiliation ? Do not let us judge them
harshly for this sensitiveness. Perhaps some of them are morbid. But they
are all educated, refined, cultured people, who have known happier days.
Can you not tmderstand and even honor the delicate sensitiveness which makes
them shrink from being classed, as they are so thoughtlessly classed by many,
with the pauper recipients of some charity fund ?
The Secretary here read letters from several veterans showing their extreme
sensitiveness, as to receiving aid from the Board. One of them, in a recent letter^
gratefully acknowledging his first remittances from the Board, adds, neverthe-
less, that if it were ever possible for him to do so, he would return every penny to
the Board !

Why should this honored servant of the Church, asked the Doctor, want
to return this money to the Board, any more than to return to the Home Board
the salary he received when he was a Missionary ? Ah, you know why !
It was at the General Assembly at Omaha in 1887, and in the June num-
ber for that year of The Church at Home and Abroady that I asked whether
the Church had not too long borne the reproach of adding a new sorrow, even
while it was relieving the need in these homes of our suffering breth-
ren. If it is too much to hope that ample and honorable provision shall speedily
be made by the Church for all those upon the Roll of its Board of Ministerial
Relief, can there not be devised some change in the methods of the adminis-
tration of the Board by which at least one class of those upon our Roll — ^the
honorably retired pastors and missionaries — may be clearly recognized as the
honored recipients of an annuity, or retiring allowance, which they have earned
by their long and faithful service to the Church ?
To this question there came, in the action of the Assembly last year, a
response which, though not all the Secretary could wish, nevertheless was so
hopeful for the future that he rejoiced and gave thanks. The new rule pro-
vides that the honorably retired minister — over seventy years of age, thirty years
of whose life have been spent on the missionary fields of our Church or in its
pastorate, and who is in need — shall no longer be obliged to appear annually
before Presbytery to make bare his poverty, and by his very plea with his
brethren to recommend him to the Board for an appropriation, deepen his own
humiliation and the shame of the Church. Too often has that spectacle been
witnessed by the present generation !
Only last week a pastor wrote to me describing his feelings at one of these
scenes, which impressed him all the more as it occurred at the first meeting of
the presbytery he attended. A venerable, godly man, had prepared a written
statement of his nearly half a century's wo.k in the pastorate. During all these
years he had labored within the bounds of that presbytery, never having been
without a pastoral charge and never having bad a salary of over ^50 — frequently
less. Now he had grown old and feeble and could no longer earn his bread
in the sacred work or in any other employment. A widowed daughter and her
helpless little ones were dependent upon him for support. He needed help,
and he humbly asked the presbytery if they would recommend him to the
Board of Relief for an appropriation of $200. Handing this paper to the Mod-
erator of the Presbytery, the Patriarch left the room with his head bowed and
the tears coursing down his furrowed cheeks. Of course the presbytery (they
all honored and loved him) hastened to vote him a recommendation to the Board;
but, brethren, ought not this old man to have been spared that bowed head and
those tears ? Ah, the coming generation will wonder that such a scene was
ever witnessed.
Now the new rule of the Assembly not only emphasizes the fact that ser-
vidc to the Church, and not poverty, is the basis of the claim which the worn
out veteran has upon the Board of Relief — ^that has often been emphasized
before — ^but it is put in a business shape. When the long and useful service of
the honorably retired Pastor or Missionary is, once for all, a matter of record
upon the minutes of Presbytery, the veteran, upon the simple statement of his
Digitized by VjOOQIC
26
need, and without further questioning, draws his modest annuity of ^300 from
our Board for the few remaining years of his life. Why was not this done
before?
Dr. Cattell then spoke of the twenty-six honorably retired veterans, who,
during the past year had availed themselves of this provision which takes away
so largely the sense of humiliating dependence under the old rule which has
prevailed since 1849. The oldest of these ministers placed upon the new
" Roll of Honor," is in his ninety-fourth year. Eight are past four score.
The average age is seventy-eight, and the average number of years spent in
the ministry is forty-four.
Referring to the " need " of the veteran, as a necessary condition of his
receiving an appropriation from the Board, the Secretary confessed that he saw
only one way to entirely eliminate this " charity " idea, and that was in the
retiring allowance fixed for pastors and missionaries who have served the Church
for a certain number of years there shall be no distinction between those who
are poor and those who are not. The annuity provided for the retirmg Judges
of all our Federal courts and the officers in the army and navy is regarded by
the recipients themselves, no less than by the public, to be as honorable to
them as to the country that gives it. For this annuity is not only ample ; it is
paid to the retiring judge or officer all the same whether he is rich or poor,
sick or well. The Government never asks him : '^ Have you not enough money
to live on ? Or, cannot your children or your relatives, or your wife's relatives sup-
port you ? " Or the further question : " Why did you not, like other people,
lay by something out of your ample salary for your support in old age ? " But
these questions have been too often asked of the worn out (nreacher — though
there is not much emphasis laid upon the ample salary ! Is it not the church
that should set an example to the Government in the tender care of its servants
and in the honorable provision made for their old age, rather than that the
Government should set an example to the Church ?
Just before leaving home I said to a lady who is very much interested in
the work of this Board : ** The General Assembly of our Church has often em-
pha^zed the fact that the appropriations from the Board are not charity or alms
but the payment (and that only in part) of &jus/ debt. How does it strike yon
that the Assembly limits the payments to those who are in need? " Said she*
** It strikes me as a little confusing. But I suppose that the reason for the
limitation is that you cannot raise money enough to pay a decent appropriation
even to those who are in need." Like all women, she hit the nail on the
head the very first time she struck at it. Yes, brethren,. " we are con-
fronted by a condition, not by a theory." The Presbyterian Church does not con-
tribute enough money to furnish a decent support for its aged servants wJko org
in need.
Look at the figures in our report this year. Thizty-five hundred churches
(more than half of all upon the Roll of the Assembly) made last year no contri"
bution whatever to our treasury ? One hundred and forty churches only went
through the motion of it, giving in all ^129.67, ranging from one dollar to
twenty-five cents (it was the pastor himself, no doubt, who gave the dollar oat
of his own meager salary I ), and worse than their record is that of many large
Digitized by VjOOQIC
27
and wealthy churches that are still playing the role of that widow with only two
mites. Last year the Board received ^2,570 from the collections in Churches
and Sabbath-schools; add to this ^12,798 sent directly to the treasury by a
comparatively few generous individuals, and there was only a little over a
hundred thousand dollars contributed during the year, to be divided among
624 families upon the Roll of the Board. The interest from the Permanent
Fund was ^34,911 ; but the whole income was only ^140,856, while the expen*
diture, on the present scale of small appropriations to those in netd^ was ^143,981.
The Board really ends the year with a debt of ^3,125.
Brethren, let us first make some worthy provision for these blessed servants
of the Giurch who are in need, and then we can argue the question whether
this charity idea cannot and ought not to be effettually and finally disposed of
by a '< retiring allowance '' to every worn out pastor and missionary. It will be
interesting, then, to inquire whether there was any other reason than the poverty
of the Fjresbyterian Church for the declaration in the New Rule that the veteran
by his service to the Church is entitled to a retiring allowance if hi needs U!
And doubtless some will then wonder whether the Presbyterian Church really
held the view that a just debt ought to be paid only when the creditor is poor I
The Doctor, however, asserted that the " need '* of the worn-out minister
did not in itself involve any humiliation. Surely, the servants of Him who had
nowhere to lay his head will never hold this view.
"Whatever may be the hardships of poverty, it is the glory of the Presbyte-
rian ministers, worn out in the service of the Church, that they are poor.
Ptofessor Agassiz once said, ** I have never had time to make money." How
nobly this sounds from his lips — for he had all the time there was ! But the
philosopher was too absorbed in his great work to turn aside from it to
make money, even to provide for his old age; and the ministry furnishes a still
grander illustration of self-sacrifice in the noblest of callings.
No, it is not the *' need " of the worn-out minister in his old age that is
humiliating. It is the "charity" idea associated with the provision for
his support that does this; and if men would only look at it rightly, there is,
after all, a sense in which the " need " of the veteran may be regarded as the
reason for an annuity, or retiring allowance or pension, without obscuring the
service which entitles him to it. Was it not the pathetic fact of General Grant's
" need " that brought about his pension near the close of his life ? — for such
was really the replacing of his name by Congress upon the retired list of the Army.
But shall this obscure his great service to the country, which, after all, was the
only ground upon which this honorable provision for his relief could rightly
have been made by Congress. Who thinks pf calling this an act of charity, though
it would never have been done if the illustrious General had not been in need.
And the New Rule of the Assembly reduces almost to the vanishing point
whatever might wound the feelings of the veteran in the fact that his retiring
allowance is given to him in view of bis " need. " He has now only to state
the fact, with the official record of his services to the Church. No painful and
humiliating questions are now asked ! There is not a man in all our Church
who can object to this retiring allowance of $300 being placed in the hands of
an honorably retired minister upon his simple statement that he needs this
Digitized by VjOOQIC
28
amount from the Board for his support, after he has given thirty years of service
to the Church as a missionary or pastor.
Yes, I do rejoice and give thanks for the advance which has been made
by the New Rule. It is a good beginning; but let the good work go on until
the very thought of humiliation in the aged minister's drawing a pension from
the Church because he is in need, shall be an impossibility ; and the very names
of these veterans, instead of being carefully suppressed.can be publicly announced
and printed as a " Roll of Honor."*
Ah, how carefully do some presbyteries conceal the names of those whom
they recommend to the Board for aid ! I honor the tender and thoughtful deli-
cacy that leads the brethren thus to spare the feelings of these Wards of the
Church. Perhaps, as things now are, it may be the best plan But is it not a
sad proof of the existence of a widespread sentiment in the Church that, after
all, there really is in these appropriations something for the veteran to be
ashamed of ? And does not this studious concealment of the name perpetuate
this sentiment, which ought not to exist at all?
Last month I visited one of our Presbyteries— that of Lackawanna — and
it gladdened me to find that the brethren there had taken high ground on this
very subject. A whole evening was given to the cause, and Dr. Logan, the
Chairman of our Committee in that Presbytery, in his Report read at this
meeting, dwelt tenderly upon each case upon which the PresSytery was called
to act. Nor did he hesitate to mention the honored name, a> though the
" need " which led the blessed servants of the Church to apply for aid to
which they were entitled by their services, was something to be ashamed of !
No ! No ! Of course it was put in a wise way ; the " service " was so empha-
sized that the appropriation, asked for from the Board for these suffering
brethren, was recognized as something they had fairly earned ; and there was
no member of that Presbytery, and no m in or woman in that lai^e audience,
who did not feel that these retiring allowances were honorable to these vet-
erans and honorable to the Church — except that the amount was shamefully
small.
It so happened that among these names was that of a Minister very dear
to me. I had myself long years ago, when a young Professor at Lafayette
College, often called that name in the class-room. He was older than I was,
* The following paragraphs are from a letter by the Secretary of the Board, printed in
Tkf Church at Home and Abroad iox June, 1888.
* * * Scarcely a week passes but our church papers contain an appreciative obituary
notice of some honored father of the church who, in his helpless old age. has been receiving
aid from this Board ; but that fact is scrupulously withheld. * * * Let me give you a
ca!ie in point. Not long since I received a brief note to the effect that the writer had sent
to one of the religious journals here in Philadelphia a notice of the life and character of an
honored father of the Church who had just died. But writing in great haste, and under
unusual pressure of work, he feared there was something said which might betray the fact
that the patriarch was upon the roll of this Board. He therefore begged me to go to the
office of the paper and look over the proof, as there was not time for it to reach him by mail
and if there was any such sentence, to strike it out. I was deeply touched by the delicate
and thoughtful consideration of this good pastor, so characteristic of him.; but. my dear
brother, why should there be forced upon him and upon me and upon the Presbytery the
necessity of being so careful lest it should come to be known that some honored servant of th
Church received aid from the Board of Relief? May God speed the coming of a better dayt

and well do I remember the manly form that rose in response, and the invar-
iably good rendering of the Greek that followed. The tender mention of his
name in the Report recalled cherished memories of those far-off days, when,
in thnt class-room and in the students' weekly prayer-meetings and in the
Chapel service and in many long walks we had taken together, my heart was
knit to his. But little did I then think that when we both came to be old and
gray-headed, it would be through my hand there would be put into his, the
annual remittance from the Church that would keep him from hard and bitter
want. But so it has pleased God. After many long years of faithful, laborious
and self-sacnficing service, mainly in feeble churches, this scholarly man was
stricken with paralysis, and was laid aside from the work he loved so well.
You can understand how, among the many letters that have come to me, as
Secretary of the Board, from these honored servants of the Church upon our
Roll, few have had for me such a pathetic interest as those from the humble
home of my old pupil and friend. May I read you one of them ?
Here the doctor read a tender letter from his aged and helpless friend,
which referred to his entire dependence for the support of himself and his
wife upon the remittance of ^200 sent from the Board, and modestly asked
for its continuance another year, adding :
** We hope the funds in hand may be sufficient to justify such an appro-
priation : but if not, we will try to suffer patiently with your other needy
pensioners."
Think of it ! said the Doctor. This godly, scholarly man, tracing with
his tremulous hands, " growing more helpless daily," these pathetic lines. I
wish they could be read in every Presbyterian home throughout the land !
After describing a visit he had made to the humble home of this patient
sufferer. Doctor Cattell said : ** The memory of that last interview always
touches me most deeply; but not less was I affected when at this large
meeting. Dr. Logan, in his report to the Presbytery, dwelt so tenderly upon
the name of that dear old man, and upon his services to the Church, and then
added there would no longer be any necessity for the Presbytery to vote him
an appropriation ! God had provided for his afflicted servant better things.
A few weeks ago a Voice had called to him in his pain and suffering : Enter
thou into the joy of thy Lord !
One more reference. Moderator, before I take my seat — it is to that
devoted wife, who for many long years had cheered and aided her husband
in his sacred work. I must read you a letter fix>m her that I received in answer
to one of mine, containing a little sum of money, placed in my hands by a
friend to use according to my own judgment :
" Dear Brother : Your unexpected favor reached my husband yesterday.
With tear dimmed eyes we read your note, and I am not sure but your words
of kind remembrance were of more value than the check accompanying them,
much ias we appreciated the latter. It is not always that our friends remember
that our greatest trial is that we are laid aside from the work. Yet we are
thankful that the work goes en, even if we are not helping, as we would like
to do.
Did you notice that sentence, " our greatest trial is that we are laid aside
from the work " ? Oh, brethren, who can estimate the worth of the minister's
Digitized by VjOOQIC
30
wife to the church ? Her name does not appear in the call to the pastor and
no salary is named for her. But think of what her service is to the church —
not only in the joy with which she irradiates the manse, cheering and strength-
ening her husband for his special duty — but her own share in the parish work.
Calling once at the manse of an old friend I was told he was out of town.
Then I asked for his wife, whom I had long known. The answer was that
** she had gone to visit some sick people." Not the sick people among her
personal friends, but the sick people of the parish ! Shall there not be some
recognition by the Church of this faithful service ? Shall it ever be told to the
shame of the Church that in the home of the Pastor's widow there is no bread?
And do your thoughts revert to the noble woman whose letter I have just
read, and are you thinking of the Church's duty to her in her lonely and
dependent widowhood ? Let me further tell you that for many weary months
she had suffered intensely with a malady that put her life in peril every moment,
and which she well knew must end it at no distant day. But she carefully
concealed all knowledge of this from her husband. Her constant prayer was
that her life might be spared as long as his. When her tender ministrations
for him were ended she did not care to live longer.
And God granted the desire of her heart. Just two weeks after she had
gently folded upon her husband's breast the dear paralyzed hands — now no
longer trembling, but still as the heart beneath — sA€ was natf for God took
hir*
In her home now there is no suffering or want. But, as our Report tells
you, there are throughout our Church more than three hundred homes where
the pastor's widow sits solitary, and where there is want — often hard and
bitter want \ Fathers and Brethren, need I urge you to " help those women f "
III. Meetings of the Elders During the Sessions of
the Assembly.
(From the Daily Saratogian^ May 24th.)
The meetings held on Tuesday and Wednesday by the elder-commission-
ers to the General Assembly at the rooms of the Young Men's Christian Asso-
ciation were lai^ely attended. In fact the audience overflowed the hall and
occupied a large part of the reading-room adjoining. Elder William H.
Parsons, of the Synod of New York, presided at the first meeting, and after
devotional exercises, said:
We have met here, brethren, to consider our duty as elders in Christ's
Church; especially our duty with reference to the Board of Ministerial
Relief. Your sympathies and mine have gone out towards those servants of
the Church who have been laid aside either by sickness or the infirmities of
age. We all recognize our duty in this matter, and the responsibility that rests
upon us i but the fear is that when we leave the Assembly and go to our homes
the cares of business life may call our attention away from the needs of this
Board. We have, of course, a duty in connection with all of the boards of the
Church, This we all recognize, but there are some of the boards whose inter-
ests the pastor can better look after than we can. With respect, however, to
Digitized by VjOOQIC
31
this Board of Ministerial Relief, I think it devolves upon the elders of the
Church more than upon the ministers themselves to see that its work is effect-
ive, that its aims and wants are made known to all our congregations, and that
its treasury is always supplied, The time allotted for this meeting is very short
and I shall not take up any more of it. The meeting is now in your hands.
Brief addresses were then made by elders representing all parts of the
Church. The interest was so great that frequently three or four elders rose at
the same time to address the meeting.
Elder Curtis C. Strong, M. D., from Oregon, spoke of Ministerial Relief as
a subject of very great importance, and one which really interested the whole
Church. The people, however, do not generally understand the importance
and necessity of contributing to the Board. The ministers have got the idea
that to present this subject from the pulpit is begging for themselves, and the
result is that many of them neglect this duty. Ministerial Relief is a subject,
therefore, that should be taken up by the elders and pushed by them in every
congregation. He referred to the nominal sum that was contributed last year
for this Board, and emphasized the necessity of adopting some method to '
increase the contributions in all our churches for the aid of our sick and worn-
out ministers. '
Elder David N. Murray, of Ohio, referred to the fact that nearly twenty
years before the General Assembly took this matter up he introduced a reso-
lution in his presbytery for the relief of our superannuated ministers, and a
committee, of which he was one, was appointed to this duty, which they per-
formed for many years. I could not bear, said he, to see our worn-out min-
isters turned out from their field after long years of usefulness with no means
of sustenance. When the General Assembly took the matter up I rejoiced, and
I do hope that this matter will go on until a much better support is provided
for all.
Elder Alfred Hand, formerly of the supreme court of Pennsylvania, and
a commissioner to the Assembly from the Presbytery of Lackawanna, spoke of
his beloved pastor having been stricken down with paralysis as he stood one
Sabbath in the pulpit. His usefulness as a pastor was over, and he resigned
his pulpit. But the church, as long as he lived, which was several years,
tenderly cared for him» paying him an annuity of ^1,200. When he died the
church paid ^300 to his widow ; and they are paying it now and expect to
pay it as long as she lives, in addition to their contribution to the Board of
Mmisterial Relief. '* There is no one in that church," said he, " who feels
that we are doing an act of charity. It is simply our duty. We want to get
rid of that idea of charity so generally associated with the provision made by
the Church for the support of the sick and worn-out ministers. The elders
must devise a plan to educate the people up to their great privilege, as well as
their duty, to support them, just as those are supported who are preaching the
Word. Let us enter into this work heart aqd soul."
Elder James S. Baker, from New Jersey, wanted the meeting to take a
practical turn. The elders know what their duty is. The Church last year
contributed a little over ^100,000.00 to this cause. We should go home and
tell our churches we want ^200,000.00; and the delegates here must put into
their brother elders at home the same spirit which has been aroused in this
Digitized by VjOOQIC
32
Assembly. We should go to our presbyteries and insist that this subject of
Ministerial Relief be brought fully before them. We must make the churches
double their contributions.
Elder James Brown, Synod of Kansas, confessed that, while he had looked
at this matter before he came to the Assembly, and had considered it a sacred
duty to take care of the disabled ministers, it had never struck him in the light
it has since he heard the report of the Board to the Assembly. That it is not
merely a duty, but a high privilege ; that it is not a charity doled out to these
servants of the Church, but a reward for their faithful services, all this had
dawned upon him since then. He hoped all the elders would go to their
homes resolved to educate the people up to a sense of their duty and responsi-
bility. Ministerial relief is a great work. The elders should feel a deeper
and more sacred interest in it than they now do.
Elder N. T. Qark, from the presbytery of Geneva, thought one evening
ought to be set apart for Ministerial Relief at every meeting of presbytery. In
that way it can be brought, not only before the ministers and eldeis, bo^
before the people.
Elder S. Cadwallader, from Los Angeles, Cal., said that the session of his
* church had already taken action upon the subject of Ministerial Relief. It was
the duty of the elders to present the claims of that Board, and the cause would
be presented in all the churches of his presbytery.
Elder D. C. Eaton, of BiooUlyn, expressed his very great pleasure at the
practical turn this meeting had taken. Every elder in the Assembly should
charge himself with the duty of seeing to it that each church in his presbytery
takes a collection for Ministerial Relief, and the contributions in every church
should be at least doubled. Elder Barber agreed with the last speaker, and
thought the elders in attendance ; t the General Assembly would not perform
thebr duty unless the influence and spirit of the Assembly reached throughout
the land from ocean to ocean. As representatives of their respective presby-
teries it was the duty of each one to carry home and extend the spirit and enthu-
siasm which has been here aroused. At the next presbytery the elders should
make a repoit of these meetings, and look to it that in each of our presbyteries
the elders are made to feel the same influence and spirit that has prevailed
here. The doubling of the collections in the churches will then be more than
realized.
Elder Oscar L. Peak, from Kansas, referred to the elders' meetings fre-
quently held preceding and during the meeting of the presbytery. Some elder
should present, at each of these, this subject of Ministerial Relief. In that
way it will reach all the churches of the presbytery.
Elder P. W. Bently, Synod of Pennsylvania, suggested that as the elders
would all go home filled with a desire to carry out the thoughts gained at
the Assembly, each one should resolve himself into a committee of one and see
that this matter is effectively brought to the attention of all the churches in his
presbytery.
i Elder F. F. Hopkins, from the Pacific Coast, observed that although in
the church to which he belonged they were very strict to take up a collection,
he had always observed that it was with more or less diffidence that this matter
Digitized by VjOOQIC
33
was presented by the pastor of the church. He agreed with the previous
speaker that the elders should take hold of this matter with vigor and bring it
before the presbyteries.
Elder G. N. White also emphasized this thought. He insisted that the
elders would not do their duty to simply see that this cause is represented in
their respective churches and a collection taken. He found no cause for
which he could raise money so easily as for the Board which provides for the
faithful minister of Christ who is disabled or worn out in the service. People
who are not members of the Church give as gladly as those who are members.
The Chairman here announced that the hour had expired, and it was
uzutnimously resolved to continue the topic at the meeting in the same place
next day.
Elder James A. Beaver, governor of Pennsylvania, presided at the meet-
ing on Wednesday, and, after the devotional exercises, referred to an officer in
the army, a comrade of his in the war, whose friends, including the speaker,
had recently interested themselves in a bill before congress to place him upon
the retired list of the regular army as a lieutenant-colonel. From over nineteen
states of the union letters, petitions and appeals in his favor were sent to Wash-
ington, to the Military Committee in both houses of Congress. The argument
was based upon his services to the country, and the i^peal for him was made
because of love for him. So had these ministers a right, by their services to
the Church, to demand a support in sickness or old age ; and though the min-
ister may have some diffidence in presenting this subject fA)m the pulpit, he
has no right to have any such feeling. This leads to the very thing we are
endeavoring to prevent. That is, having the Church think an appropriation
from the Board to our ministers is anything more than that to which they have
a right. No good reason can be given why a minister should not present this
cause trom the pulpit with all the power and pathos he has. I agree that the
elders ought to assist all in their power, but the minister ought first to put him-
self on record; it he does not the elders ought to stand up and tell why he
does not. The governor insisted that all pastors should teach their people the
basis upon which the Board is founded ; that the Church owes a support to
every minister of the Gospel who is disabled in the service of the Church.
There is no charity about it. " I want,'' said he, " to take that idea away
from it, and it is my firm conviction that this reluctance of the pasters to pre-
sent this cause to their people helps to make the appropriations given to minis-
ters regarded as a charity rather than the discharge of an obligation which
the Church owes her disabled servants. This meeting hkis been called to
devise some practical means by which the elders and the pastors of the Presby-
terian church can give this Board of Ministerial Relief the support it ought to
have in the year to come, and this should be ^150,006 outside of its regular
income from the interest of its invested funds.*
Elder William H. Parsons, Synod of New York, agreed with the gov-
* Governor Beaver was a Commissioner to the Centennial General Assembly in
Philadelphia, year before last. He was Vice-Moderator of the Assembly and Chairman
of the Standing Committee upon Ministerial Relief. His report and the abstract of the
address he made in presenting It to the Assembly are printed in the appendix to the report
•r tbe Board for that year, z888.

ernor that the pastors cught to present this subject from their pulpits, but at
the same time there was undoubtedly more embarrassment upon their part in
pleading this cause thin in pleading for the other Boards. Therefore the
elders, in connection with the pastors, should give themselves heartily to this
work, not only in their own churches, but also in all the churches of the pres-
bytery. An effort should be made to at least double the contributions of las^
year.
Elder Daniel R. Noyes, Minnesota, said he had come to the conclu^on
first to contribute more himself to this cause. There are 250 elders members
of this General Assembly, and they represent a large amount of intelligence
and wealth, God-given. If they go home and do their duty the collections
for the Board will increase fifty per cent. He then referred to the necessity
of more concentration in their benevolent work, and not scatter so much.
Let us do the work which our own church has undertaken. If it be necessary
to have two collections for foreign missions, let us have them ; and two for
Ministerial Relief, if necessary. " Then," said he, *' I shall try to have all the
churches in the presbytery give something for this cause ; but let us give all
that we can."*
'Elder Gark was surprised to learn that ministers in any part of the coun-
try are timid about presenting this cause to the people. Where he lived that
feeling was not known. Our pastors and our presbytery are very particular to
keep this sacred cause before the people.
Elder William Wynkoop, Philadelphia, reminded Governor Beaver that
when the Synod of Pennsylvania met in Bellefonte it was resolved that the
elders should go home and especially bring the matter before the Sunday-
schools and instruct the children in this cause, and that a collection should be
taken up. He described how this was done in his church, and they got about
half as much as the church itself had given. A collection for this cause had
been taken up from year to year ever since. Besides the amount thus gained,
the youth of our Church are being educated in this noble cause. Elder George
H. Utter, from the recently formed Synod of New Mexico, urged all the
missionary churches, however feeble, to interest themselve in this cause and to
contribute something toward it.
Elder Henry Day, of New York referred to the interest taken by his
church in this great and noble work, as shown by their contribution to the
* Mr. Noyei says, in a recent letter to the Secretary, who had requested his views
upon the work of the Board :—
To provide for our aged and infirm ministers and their fkmilies. and to do it in a
way that acknowledges their right to such provision— is the great privilege, as well as the
sacred duty of the Church ; and this duty belongs to the eldership and membenhip, rather
than to the ministry itself
Not only is this obligation imperative in itself, but such generous provision com-
mends itself as of the greatest importance to the Church in all iu interests. Itencourages
young men to prepare for and enter the ministry. It strengthens and sustains them in it,
relieving them (Vom anxious care for the future, and enabling them to do better and more
hopeful work.
In this provision for its aged and disabled servants, and in the manner of It, I trust
the Church of Christ mav not only do as well as worldly corporations and governments,
but may lead them in willing and generous acknowledgment of service rendered. There
is wealth enough, ability enough, and grace enough in our Presbyterian Church to speed-
ily complete the one million fund and to double our annual gifts for Ministerial Relief
without in any way impairing the work of the Church in any of its other departments
while doing so

Centenary Fund, which amounted to OT«r seventy thousand dollars. He
-showed the necessity of individual work as necessaiy to success in this as in
every other good cause. He also emphasized the thought that these collections
>^ould be made so as to elevate the ministry. Our Lord's words, " Inasmuch
•as ye have done it unto one of the least of these, my brethren, ye have done
It unto me," had a special application to this cause. These ministers of Qirist
:are in a special sense his brethren.
Brief but spirited addresses followed from Elders James H. Torrey, of
Pennsylvania; William A. Bowles, Tennessee; R. V. Ditmore, Indiana; and
J. Foster Barber, Pennsylvania, who emphasized the importance of thoroughly
enlisting all the Sabbath-schools in this work.
Governor Beaver announced that the time for closing the meeting had
arrived, but the brethren all wanted to hear from Elder George Junkin, the
president of the Board, and he called upon him for the closing address. Mr.
Junkin responded with much feeling, referring to his connection with this
Board for the past twenty-five years, and showed that the principle upon
-which it ought to be put is that to support a sick or aged minister is a matter
•of right, and not a matter of charity brought out by pity. The church, said
he, does not give us enough money to properly care for its servants who are
in want ; and he described the feelings of all the members of the Board as
they sat beside their too often empty treasury and heard the appeals for help
from these honored servants of the church. These old soldiers of the cross
•ought to receive their appropriations as a matter of justice, and when they die
they ought to know that they do not leave their wives and children to the
Isenevolence and charity of the church. But the Board should not have an
endowment fund so large as to relieve the church from annual contributions to
4ts treasury. This cause should year by year lie upon the hearts of the people.
These two meetings, said he in conclusion, have simply been splendid. Do
•not let us go back to our churches and allow it all to end in the speeches
made here. When Nehemiah went down to build the wall around Jerusalem,
he set every man to work over against his own house. Our first duty is to
work for this cause in our own congregations. Let us work there first, and
<hen if we have time, let us go into the neighboring churches.
NoTE.'-'Iiir. William E. Dodge, an Elder-Commissioner to the Assembly
who took special interest in these meetings, made a brief but most earnest and
forcible address to the General Assembly, following the Secretary of the
Board, when the report of the Assembly's Standing Committee upon Minis-
terial Relief was under consideration.

FORM OF BEQUEST.
The laws of the different states vary so much as to testamentary bequests
that it is always desirable to secure the services of a competent lawyer. In
all cases, however, where bequests are made to this Board, the corporate name
should be used, as follows :
The Prbsbytbrian Board of Relief for Disabled Ministers,
AND THE Widows and Orphans of Deceased Ministers.

Twenty-Fifth Annual Report
OF THE
Board of Missions for Freedmen,.
Of the PreBb3rterian Church in the United States ^
Of America.
To the General Assembly of the Presbyterian Church,
Prom March Slat, 1889, to April lot, 1890.
Thb Presbyterian Board of Missions for Freedmen
respectfully presents to the General Assembly its Twbntt-
FiFTH Annual Report, and in doing so desire to record its
gratitude to God for the prosperity with which He has been
pleased to crown its work during the past year.
Reorganization of the Board.
The Board has been thoroughly reorganized during the year,
which we trust will make each department of work more syste*
matic and efficient. In the reorganization the Board felt it neces-
sary that there be an Office Secretary and Treasurer elected, who,
together with the duties of the Treasuryship, should have charge
of the work of the office under the direction of the Office Com-
mittee. After mature deliberation the Board on the 15th of July
elected to this office Rev. Joseph T. Gibson, of Sharpsburg, Pa.,
who accepted and entered on the duties of the office October 1st.
Mr. Gibson has been in the office now six months, and the Board
feels satisfied that it has made a wise choice in electing him to
this position, his experience as Secretary of the Synodical Susten-
tation of the Synod of Pennsylvania giving him a valued pre-
paration for the work of this office.
A Quabter-Cbntury's Work.
The ecclesiastical year just closed completes a quarter of a cen-
tury of our work among the Freedmen. Twenty-five years ago
the General Assembly gave this work its first consideration. The
Digitized by VjOOQIC
Presbyterian Board of
smoke of the battle fields of the South had scarcely cleared away
before some of its missionaries were on the ground, and with earn-
est hearts and hands had commenced a work which at that time
and under existing circumstances was one of the most difficult and
self-denying upon which a missionary could enter. Neither the
Assembly nor the Church seemed to realize what a tremendous task
they had undertaken. DiflSculties and hindrances met us at every
step, which, if related at this day, would seem almost incredible.
But God was in the movement; and His constant favor rested
upon it.
Twenty-five years ago we had not a church or school among the
Freedmen, not one educated colored preacher or teacher. Today
finds us with 245 churches, 78 schools, 117 colored preachers and
133 colored teachers. These churches and schools are now reach-
ing not less than half a million of the Freedmen with their elevat-
ing and Christianizing influences.
From 1870 to 1890 there were added to the colored churches
under the Board 22,253 persons on profession of their faith, and
4,268 by certificate, making a total of 26,531. The reports for the
first five years do not afibrd definite infofmation on the points just
referred to, but at the close of 1869 they report 5,634 members as
belonging to the churches, so that during the tweiity-five years
just ended, not less than 82,165 persons have been brought into the
churches under the Board.
October 4th, 1866, the first colored Presbytery, Catawba, was
formed, having only two churches enrolled. Now we have two
Synods: Atlantic, with six Presbyteries, and Catawba, with four.
Looking back over this past quarter of a century we feel pro-
foundly grateful to God that we have made a good start in the
effort to evangelize the Freedmen.
Yet the work is only begun. Lights have been enkindled, and
they have burned brightly indeed, but they also reveal and define
the darkness that "covers the land," and the '*gross darkness" that
covers the people.
The Wobk of the Year.
This has certainly been most gratifying and in some regards
the most prosperous year in the Board's history. The receipts of
the Board during the year, as will be seen from the Treasurer's
report, amount to $176,825.60, against $134,450.88 from the same
sources last year, a gain of $41,874.72. It is gratifying to record
Digitized by VjOOQIC
Miadons Jot Freedmen.
also that the Freedmen have given $30,464.21 towards the support
of their own charohes and schools. Add to this the sum they have
paid for scholarships in Scotia Seminary, $4,961, Mary Allen
Seminary, $2,784, and other schools, we find they have given
$40,209.21 towards self-support. These last mentioned sums are
not included in the receipts of the Board.
Nine new churches have been organized and a number of new
preaching stations occupied. In the Carolinas our churches have
suffered greatly by the emigration of many Negroes to the West.
More than 40,000 have left these states for Mississippi, Arkansas,
and Texas. In Georgia, the Empire State of the South, the work
has been greatly strengthened and pushed forward. The colored
population in this State is rapidly increasing, and numbers now
probably not less than 900,000, and in no state, unless it be in
Texas, are these people accumulating property so rapidly. Until
recently we have accomplished but little here, but a number of
earnest and energetic men have been put into this field, and now
Knox Presbytery (which includes the entire state) is as able, earnest
and aggressive as any in our Southern work. We may anticipate
a marked advance by our Church in this state within the next few
years. The same promising outlook is afforded us in Arkansas,
where many of our colored people from the Atlantic states are
settling. A Presbytery, White River, was organized there a little
over a year ago, and is earnestly pushing the work in that state,
and we may now regard Arkansas as one of our most hopeful
fields. Two new men have been put in the Indian Territory, and
we have the most encouraging reports of their good work in the
Choctaw Nation. The new Presbytery of Southern Virginia is
doing good and efficient work, two additional ministers having been
sent to that field during the year. The work in the entire field, as
a whole, is healthy and growing. There were added to the
Churches during the year 1,290 persons on profession of faith,
and 272 by certificate.
The Educational Work.
This is the right arm of our Church among the Freedmen, and
is the hope of the race. It is an ominous fact that in the South
illiteracy is steadily increasing. The colored people are multiply-
ing more rapidly than the means of educating them. If all the
children of the Freedmen of school age were to*day provided with
Digitized by VjOOQIC
Prahyierian Board of
adequate Bchool privileges, by the time your venerable body meets
next year, there would be 255,500 children asking to be taught
their letters, to whom we should have to say there are do schools
for you. It is an encouraging fact, however, that in the regions
where our schools, especially our seminaries and academies are
established, illiteracy is steadily diminishing. Biddle University,
Scotia and Mary Allen Seminaries, Brainerd Institute, and Wal-
lingford and Haines Academies, and others of our schools, are
making bright spaces in the surrounding gloom which are gradu-
ally growing brighter and larger every year.
The Parochial School is a necessity in building up our Church
work. In every instance where such a school has been established,
whether in city or country, it has proved a most efficient aid in
drawing attention to the work, and making friends for it. The
colored people as a rule prize education, and they love the Church
that gives it to them. These schools should be multiplied, and as
far as our funds would allow, it has been the policy of the Board
to do so.
Industrial training is now made a special feature in all our
Seminaries and Academies. It has been introduced in Biddle
University during the past year with marked success. In Scotia
and Mary Allen Seminaries it has been carried on most prosper-
ously. At Brainerd Institute nearly every new building needed
for the institution for the last three or four years has been put up
by the students. A large three-story dormitory just at this time
is being completed by the students there, and done in workman-
like manner. At the time of our last report several school build-
ings were being erected. The buildings at Carthage, N. C, Abbey-
ville and Aiken, S. C, and Bogersville, Tenn., are all occupied
and so far completed that a little further effort will finish them.
The handsome building for Haines Memorial School, at Augusta,
6a., is nearly completed, and will be ready for the fall session.
A large proportion of the sum to erect this building was the
generous gift from the estate of the late Thompson Bell, of Pitts*
burg. Pa. A good substantial building for our Academy at
Cotton Plant, Arkansas, has been completed and furnished during
the year, and is now occupied by 200 pupils. This has been
done almost entirely by the ladies of Illinois.
At Mary Allen Seminary, Crockett, Texas, an additional hall
has been erected, and will be ready for occupancy by the opening
Digitized by VjOOQIC
Missions far Freedmen.
of the fall term. This hall is a beautiful addition to the Seminary
costing $16^000^ and the generous gift of Hon. James McMillan,
United States Senator from Michigan. It was a necessity also, as
more than one hundred girls were denied entrance to the Seminary
last fall for the want of room. At Pine Bluff, Arkansas, a school
building has been completed, and is now occupied by more than
200 scholars. The school work at Aiken, S. C, heretofore under
the care of Rev. W. R. Coles, has been put entirely under the con-
trol of the Board, and the entire property, valued at over $4,000,
transferred by deed to the Board. This property was secured
through the gifts of a number of northern friends who became
interested in Mr. Coles' work, and with some aid from the Board.
In consideration of the payment by the Board of a debt of $1,000
remaining on the buildings, the entire property, consisting of a
neat church building, two large and substantial school buildings
and a small dwelling house, has been transferred to the Board.
The educational work in the Indian Territory is progressing
hopefully, and could have been greatly enlarged and extended
had the necessary funds been at our command. The schools at
Atoka, Caddo, Wheelock and other points have done good work.
At Oak Hill, the central point of our school work, a new building
has been erected and paid for at a cost of $1,800. This building
was greatly needed, and we may anticipate an enlarged and
efficient work to be done at Oak Hill Industrial School.
The Board would emphasize the importance of its educational
work — it is the strength and glory of our work among the Freed-
men. In all our schools the Gospel and the Shorter Catechism
are studied, and the students are taught that the fear of the Lord
is the beginning of wisdom, and that consequently the separation
between religion and morality, which is the supreme danger of
the Southern black churches, is guarded against.
We have sustained in the field during the year 316 missionaries,
of whom 252 are colored, an increase of 26 over last year. The
following table will show the work of the year in detail :

The Board, in carrying on its work throughout its extended
field, has received valuable aid from our Field Superintendent,
Rev. H. N. Payne. The duty of this field agent is to
visit personally and frequently as possible, every portion of the
work east of the Mississippi River, to study the peculiarities of
the different missions, their relative importance, their advantages,
disadvantages and prospects, and report upon these things to the
Board. He is expected to have close and sympathetic relations
with the missionaries, whether ministers or teachers, to counsel,
encourage and cheer them in their work. He is expected also to
attend, as far as possible, the Presbyteries and Synods in the
region in which his work lies. In prosecuting this work, Mr. Payne
has, during the year, traveled 12,600 miles, visited 65 churches
and 30 schools; has attended the meetings of 10 Presbyteries and
2 Synods ; preached 57 sermons and given 44 addresses, and by
frequent letters has kept clearly before the Board the condition
and needs of the field.
Work of the Women.
There has been an encouraging increase of interest and receipts
in the work of the women, as will be seen from the following
report from the Women's Department :
Digitized by VjOOQIC
Missions for Freedmen^
SIXTH ANNUAL REPORT OF WOMEN'S DEPART-
MENT.
In presenting the sixth annual report of the Freedmen's depart-
ment, we would acknowledge vrrth gratitude, that by the blessing
of God upon our feeble efforts, the work has steadily advanced.
More societies have contributed to this cause than ever before, and
we are much better prepared for effective work. A large number
of Presbyterial Societies now have Secretaries for the work among
Freedmen. These Secretaries are earnest, Christian women, who
feel the peculiar obligation resting upon us for the welfare of the
Negro. It is to their efforts under God that the prosperity of this
department is largely due. We hope in time to have such a secre-
tary in every Synodical, Presbyterial and local society.
The contributions through the Woman's Executive Committee
of Home Missions this year were $26,117.87, an advance of
98,564.62. Beside this the Treasurer of the Board of Missions
for Freedmen has received direct from women's societies and bands
$3,182.17.
Miss Holmes, of Illinois, raised $774.14 for painting and fur-
nishing the new buildings at Cotton Plant, Ark., and Oak Hill,
Indian Territory, which, under the pressing needs of those institu-
tions at the time, she was authorized to use without sending through
the usual channels. The total amount contributed by women's
societies and bands is $80,074.1$. Perhaps it would be well here
to state that a number of societies and individuals have, always
sent their scholarships direct to the schools aided, and these sums
have not been included in the reports made.
The box work has greatly increased. From the partial reports
received we find that 140 boxes and barrels have been sent, valued
at $6,879*29, and many more of which no value was given.
No new methods have been used during the year, unless it be
the employment of Miss Hartford, of Steubenville, for three
months to visit societies and diffuse information in regard to our
work. The experiment, we think, was quite successful.
Ninety-two full scholarships and eighty-two partial ones have
been sent through the Woman's Executive Committee to twelve
schools.
Digitized by VjOOQIC
10 Preibyierian Board of
Aid has been given in building or repairing 18 houses for
school purposes. The salaries of 30 teachers have been paid in
full or in part.
We cannot report any new work this year, but have endeavored
to develop that already established. The Industrial School at Louia-
ville, Ky., to which reference was made in last year's report, has
been greatly enlarged and their methods have proved highly satis-
factory. Feeling, however, the inconvenience of sending the
money raised in the city for this work first to New York and then
to Pittsburgh, they decided to work independently in this respect.
Their most interesting report will be printed, in the hope that
women of other cities, where there is a large Negro population,
may follow their example.
We are glad to say that the small c^ebt resting upon Cotton
Plant has been entirely cancelled by the women of Illinois, who
have also furnished the house and paid the salaries of two teachers.
This school has had a valuable donation of land from the Y. P.
0. E., of CarroUton, III.
The school building that was so greatly needed at Oak Hill,
Indian Territory, has been erected, furnished and is now occupied.
The Haines Normal and Industrial School at Augusta, Gra.,
is also about completed.
At Gainesville, Florida, a house for our school has been built,
and is now in use, the money having been furnished by a genei^
ons lady in New Jersey.
Of the work contemplated at the beginning of the year all has
been provided for with the exception of the building at Burk-
ville, Va. We are still far short of the amount necessary for the
building. We own the land, and there is now in the treasury
$4,087.78 for the building. While our hearts rejoice in what has
been accomplished, we feel humbled when we think of the unim-
proved opportunities.
God has again come very near to us this year, and from our
midst has taken one whose youth, energy, acquirements, and devo-
tion to her Master's service seemed to fit for a long life of useful-
ness here. Mrs. Lora Shields Miller is not, for God has taken
her.
The year has closed ; the record of disappointments and success,
of trials and of joys, of short-comings, and resttess longings have

been made. Hitherto the Lord has helped us, and with firm
reliance upon Him we enter upon the new year resolved to do what
*we can to advance His cause.
Mrs. C. E. Coulter,
General Secretary.
The Board has had the painful duty of recording the death of
two of its members during the year^ Mr. John F, Ley, an elder of
Second Church of this city, who was a member of the Board since
1885, who died on May 8th, 1889. Mr. Ley was seldom absent
from a meeting of the Board, although burdened with the infirmi-
ties of age. The other death was that of Bev. W. C. Burchard,
who died May 23d, 1889. Prudent and sagacious, thoughtful in
-counsel and yet aggressive in plan, Mr. Burchard was a valuable
member of the Board, prompt and faithful in attendance even
when failing health made e£fbrt wearisome.
The term of service of the following members of the Board ex-
pires with the present Assembly :
Rev. S. J. FISHER. JOHN C. McCOMBS, Esq.
Rev. JOHN FOX. ROBERT S. DAVIS.
Rev. J. P. E. KDMLER, D. D.
Respectfully submitted on behalf of the Board.
E. P. COWAN, R. H. ALLEN,
President. Corresponding Secretary,
TREASURER'S REPORT.
In submitting his annual report, the Treasurer very respectfully
•calls attention to the following facts in explanation of his report :
1st. Under the heading ^* Directs" is included only money re-
ported by ministers and teachers in the employ of the Board as
sent directly to them to be used in work that the Board has ap-
proved.
2d. Having begun the year by making a distinct record of all
the money that came to the Treasurer from the Woman's Execu-
tive Committee, of the Home Board, it was thought best to con-
tinue it ; but it does not give the exact amount contributed by the
women's societies, for the reason that, on the one hand, it some-
Digitized by VjOOQIC
12 Presbvterian Board of Mimons for Freedmen,
timeB includes money contributed by Sabbath schools, and on the
other hand, it excludes money sent by women's societies directly
to the Treasurer of the Board, and not by way of New York.
8d. The amount sent directly to the field this year was
$7,145.60 less than last year, while the amount that passed through
the hands of the Treasurer was $49,020.32, more than last year.
Of this excess, over last year's contributions, $28,160.49 came from
legacies ; $8,564.72 came from the Woman's Executive Committee,
and $17,295.11 came from churches and individuals.
The Board has on hand, as a balance, $1,535.66 more than last
year, with $8,000.00 of a reduction in notes outstanding, with
$25,000.00 of an increase in invested funds, and with about
$80,000.00 of an increase in value of real estate.
In addition to notes outstanding the Board has indebtedness in
the form of special contributions not yet remitted, and grants
made to institutions, due, and not yet paid, amounting to $9,871.68,
and permanent funds, uninvested, amounting to $600.00.
The report does not include the sum of $40,209.21 reported to
us by ministers and teachers as contributed by the Freedmen for
self-support of schools and churches.

Rev. E. D. Morris, D. D., presented the report of the Stand-
ing Committee on Freednien and the following recommenda-
tions were adopted :
In accordance with a request from the Board, we recommend
that, in cases where there is a surplus of money for scholarships
or for other specific purposes at any particular institution support-
ed by the Board, the Board shall be authorized to use the said
surplus for the specified purpose at other and needier points,
wherever this can be done with the consent of the donors, or
without violating any of the terms or conditions on which their
gifts were originally made. In cases where this cannot be done
with propriety, the Board is directed to hold and keep such
moneys in reserve for future needs, the income to be expended
meanwhile from year to year, at any point, for the particular pur-
pose specified in the original gift.
The Board also desires permission to recommend to the Presby-
teries containing churches under its care, that all applications
made to these Presbyteries for aid from the Board shall be voted
upon by ballot. As this is substantially the rule approved by the
General Assembly, in the case of applications for aid from the
Board of Home Missions, and generally observed by our Presby-
teries in that connection, we recommend that this permission be
granted.
The term of service of the following members of the Board
expires at this time, namely : Ministers — S. J. Fisher, John Fox^
J. P. E. Kumler, D. D.; Elders— John C. McCombs and Robert
8. Davis. Two members of the Board have been removed by
death during the past year — Mr. John F. Loy and Rev. W. C.
Burchard. We recommend that the five brethren whose terra of
service now expires be appointed again for the period of three
years ; and that Elder T. A. Parke be appointed to fill the place
of Mr. Loy in the class of 1891, and Rev. D. S. Kennedy to fill
the place of Rev. Mr. Burchard in the class of 1892.
In behalf of the Committee.

SEYEl^TH ANNUAL KEPOET.
With the presentation of this report this Board ends its
seventh year. It has " fulfilled its week." This it does with,
the same officers and with a majority of the same members
with whom its work began. Only two of its members have
been removed by death ; one of these, Kev. Dr. John F. Ken-
dall, of La Porte, Indiana, having died within the year just
closing. During his brief relation to the Board he had shown
such punctual and intelligent interest in its work that the loss
of his counsels is as much regretted as of most welcome com-
panionship. In other particulars this last year has added
much to the evidence of that divine favor which the Board
has enjoyed from the beginning. Indeed, so notable is the
addition which it has made to the solidity and promise of this
new work, that it may fairly be considered to have completed
the first stage of its history. This report, therefore, may very
properly make some record of the chief features of this
advance, and of the point which it has reached.
I. KEVIEW.
1. Principles.
The principles of the Board's work were plainly announced
in its organization. It was to be the agent of the Church in
planting and establishing her truly necessary schools of Chris-
tian learning in those right places where they could not be
Digitized by VjOOQIC
2 SSYENTH ANNUAL SEPOBT
expected to be bo established by other agencies. Its bare cre-
ation, therefore, included such declarations as these : That a
certain distribution of schools of higher Christian learning is
indispensable to the Church's welfare and to her dutiful ser-
vice of her Master; that much of that needful distribu-
tion has been arranged for in the past and is likely to go
on in the future bj agencies, personal or local, that do not
require any organized oversight or aid from a Church
Board ; but that since a great part of such needful distribu-
tion cannot be eflfectively made except by £elp of the Church
at large, it is proper that such help be applied under the judg-
ment of a Board, controlled by the General Assembly, and
representing, as nearly as possible, the prudence of the whole
Church. Such a definition of the Board's work would have
defined, in effect, the field in which it was to be done, even if
the Assembly had not carefully described it. In the nature of
the case it would lie beyond the limits of the old and able
presbyteries and synods. This is now so plain that it is a
matter of wonder that the Board was persuaded, even for a
year or two, to include among its printed credits gifts which
some of the older and abler communities were making to
their local colleges.
Within the more needy field so specifically committed to
it, the Board has, from the first, aimed at two classes of
results : The early supply of Christian education to the youth
already waiting to receive it, and the solid establishment of
institutions that may continue the supply to all future genera-
tions. These two aims have never been separated. No school
has been opened that was not thought to have the prospect of
permanence and ultimate strength.
In order to such prospect, two conditions have been held
to be indispensable : The right location, and an outlook to an
adequate property. Of the property, one very important ele-
ment (namely, the land) has been, in most cases, comparatively
easy to secure. Indeed, the abundance of land within the
Board's special field, and the obvious local motives for oflfer-
ing it, have created one of the Board's chief duties — of decid-
ing what offers to approve, and what to discourage. The
Digitized by VjOOQIC
OF THE BOABD OF AID. 3
decision has turned chiefly upon two things: The formal
advisory action of the presbytery or synod within whose lim-
its the offered site might fall ; and the readiness of the offer-
ing community to add to its gift of land, at least a chief part
of the cost of a competent building. The places that met these
conditionft were likely to approve themselves to the judgment
of the Board, in which case they secured promise of its
aid. The beginning oi a school or college being thus made,
any movement toward the establishment of a competing
institution, by whatever offers accompanied, has been discour-
aged* In several cases, such competing offers have been so
large tli^ they would have moved the Board from anything
less than a cleai: purpose resting on principle. Much more
frequently, however, the propositions made to it have lacked
all promise of needful pedutiiury strength. Accordingly, no
feature of the Board's work, has been more marked or more
constant than its effectual repression., of local undertakings
which it saw to be either needless or hopeless, and, thereforcy
without claim to the Presbyterian help which they would be
sure to demand. The sum which, during these seven years,
has been given by churches and individuals to the Board**
work, can be reckoned exactly. But the sum of the saving
which the Board has effected, both for churches and for indi-
viduals, by preventing seven campaigns of very earnest and
persuasive, but wasteful, canvassing for abortive schools, can-
not be reckoned.
Consideration should also be given to the practical value of
those decisions of the Board under which the preferred offer*
have been seized and put to use. By such decisions, mere
proposals, which would have melted into air, have been turned
into valuable properties, whose honorable destiny is now pro-
claimed by tlieir fine buildings and growing trees. Mean-
while the rapid changes that have gone on about them have
made it impossible to duplicate, except at great cost, if at all,
the choice grounds that have thus come to our Church by gift.
But local provision thus made for property has gone
but a short way toward establishing a school. The Board has
had to cope with a list of remaining necessities.

2. Points of Difficulty.
The very provision of property has in many cases been so
incomplete that new expense has immediately grown up on
that account. This statement is carefully kept from being
universal. A majority of the older institutions are out
of debt. Some of the new ones have eflfectually avoided
it, contenting themselves with such properties as they could
produce, or waiting for enlargement till the necessary means
were secured. But that has not been the rule. Few
of the larger properties, especially, have come into being
so complete and so completely provided for that they have
not been encumbered to some degree. This is not to be won-
dered at. The most careful board of trustees seldom builds a
chnrch without some overrunning of estimates, even if there
be no shrinkage in subscriptions. There was no probability
that this new College Board, however thoughtful, could so ad-
vise the several boards of trustees that the building ventures
of even the half of them could be sure to end with bal-
anced books. (What it believes itself to have learned on
this important point will be set forth hereafter.) Thus, from
the first, the Board has had to deal with debts and interest.
Its direct and constant work, however, has been to contrib-
ute to the support of the schools, and especially to the salaries
of their teachers. Though their salaries have, for the most
part, been very small, such income from tuition fees as could
be commanded in schools newly opened in new commnnities
has been quite insufficient for meeting them. Just at that
point, according to the theory, the Board was to come in with
its yearly appropriation, which, together with friendly local
subscriptions, was to square the year's account. In very few
cases was the theory met by the fact. The new Board's in-
come was so far short of the aggregate demand made upon it,
that with many of the new schools especially, the year al-
most certainly ended with a deficit. In some cases the zeal-
ous and liberal teachers surrendered the balance which could
not be paid. The Church should have some just idea of the
spirit of Christian self-sacrifice which has consecrated not a
few of the spots whose names are read on the Board's unsenti-
Digitized by VjOOQIC
OF THE BOABD OF AID. 0
mental roll of colleges and academies. Many a youth who,
by and by, will be doing heroic service for Christ in some
home or foreign mission field will have formed his character
upon the model of the teacher whom, during some of these
past seven years, he has been watching in some scantily-helped
institution of the " Presbyterian Board of Aid."
Other teachers have been unable to make surrender of
their promised salaries; against which, indeed, in many cases,
loans had been made, which the delayed salaries gave the only
hope of paying. Accordingly, so much new debt has grown
up against the young institution. Very commendable zeal
has often been shown by the local trustees in clearing up these
debts by special subscriptions of themselves and others. In a
few cases there has been salable property, the proceeds of
which could \)e turned to the same purpose. But some pain-
ful instances remain in which the bald debt lasts on, leaving
the teacher still in need, while his just claim grows by yearly
interest. The Board, while fully aware of these evils, has
had its little income more than absorbed by every new year's
demands for current work, and has not been at liberty to re-
fuse its new appropriations in order to supplement its former
ones, however insuflScient they may prove to have been. At
this difficult point, also, the Board believes that it has gained
some light to which it will by and by ask attention.
But there has been a special reason why this deficit of
unpaid salaries has been hard to control. Very naturally,
every separate board of trustees has had its own judgment of
the scale upon which its own school work should be attempted ;
and such as have found themselves beside flourishing State
institutions have counted some generosity in outlay the only
way to a remunerative attendance. Such motive to prema-
ture expense has been very strong, and the Board has not
stopped at general remonstrance against it. In one case aid
was definitely withdrawn, and the reason was explained to be
a schedule of expenses that was held to be excessive. In sev-
eral others, distinct warning was given against that kind of
mistake, and not without effect. Yet instances remained in
which the engagements of the trustees so far exceeded their
Digitized by VjOOQIC
6 SEVENTH ANNUAL EEPORT
ability of performance that the yearly addition of debt was
very considerable.
There have been two ways in which these debts, whether
on property account or on account of current work, have
embarrassed the Board and limited its success.
1. They have essened materially the serviceableness of
those contributions which the Church has yea^rly been making
to the teaching work. The Board, for good reason as it
believes, has wished that all the collections of the churches
and all ordinary gifts to its treasury should go, neither to
the creation of property, nor to any property interest, but to
the maintenance of that living work of Christian teachers
on the minds and hearts of their pupils, for the immediate
spiritual success of which every contributor can pray as
naturally and as hopefully as though his contribution were
made to the Home Board or the Foreign. When, therefore,
a considerable part of the means thus received has been
needed by the recipient boards of trustees for the payment of
interest, not only has so much money gone aside to a sepa-
rate end ; the end which it ought to have served has been, to
that degree, thwarted. For every dollar paid out as interest
money has been a dollar out of some teacher's pocket. Even
if the particular institution that paid the interest paid its own
teachers in full, the money which it took from the Board on
interest account was so much taken from the general supply,
which at the best was too small for its legitimate office of sup-
porting school work.
2. This payment of interest, therefore, has been steadily
creating new debt, namely, in those unpaid claims of teachers
which were growing up while the sterner claim of a note or a
mortgage was asserting its precedence. Meanwhile, in many
cases, yearly interest has no more been paid than the yearly
salaries ; and in those cases, crisis has come, in which the Board
has been required to do its most anxious and difficult work —
of securing personal benefactions, of large amount, for the
rescue of the endangered properties. In some cases, such
crisis has been reached under the pressure of property debts
only.

3. Offsets.
These sombre details are not given without a reason. But
they are to be offset by such facts as these :
The trustees that have been liberal in their estimate of
yearly outlay have, in most cases, only been carrying out a
scheme of liberality which they have personally put to prac-
tice, first in producing their college property and afterward in
co-operating for saving it.
The rate of outlay which has proved beyond their means
has generally been moderate enough when compared Mrith the
teaching ability on which it has been expended, and with the
outlay of other institutions of like grade. In many instances
indeed, it has been quite below the rate of remuneration which
the same teachers were refusing in their zeal for building up
the college of their own Church.
Every rescued property has been valuable enough to reward
all effort and liberality expended in saving it.
In most cases the local outlay upon such property has been
far greater than the total of contribution brought to it by
means of the Board.
II. MEANS AND EESULTS.
Some knowledge of all the foregoing facts is necessary to
any just comparison of the means which the Board has han-
dled with the results that have been reached.
The Board's means, as has already been said, have been of
two sorts: Money which it has received into its general
treasury, and chiefly from church collections, to be expended
in yearly appropriations on teaching work; and money
which personal givers have committed to it, sometimes in large
amounts, to be applied to the increase or relief of the school
properties.
1. General Tbeasury and its Appeopbiations.
The giving to its general treasury was naturally moderate
at first. But it increased with great regularity until the not-
able advance of the present year was made. The number of
Digitized by VjOOQIC

contributing churches has stood in the Board's successive
years as follows : In its first, at 480 ; in its second, at 1330 ;
in its third, at 1529 ; in its fourth, at 1761 ; in its fifth, at
1865; in its sixth, at 1902; in its seventh, at 2030.
From this general treasury the Board made distribution
in its first year of $10,984, which it appropriated among nine
institutions, as follows : Colleges : Park, Parsons, the Col-
legiate Department of the German Theological School at
Dubuque, the Colleges of Emporia, Kansas, of Pierre, Dakota,
and of Montana, at Deer Lodge ; Academies or Collegiate
Institutes : at Salt Lake City ; at Princeton, Ky., and (Lenox)
at Hopkinton, Iowa. Of these only the three colleges of
Emporia, Pierre and Montana were new. The yearly distri-
bution has increased as follows :
Distributed in the second year, $13,410.
" " third « 23,962.
" " fourth " 23,243.
" " fifth « 25,847.
" " sixth " 27,945.
" « seventh " 41,900.
This last distribution is made to thirty-five institutions
(see the following tables), of which twenty-seven are sub-
stantially new, since those that are not new in fact have
begim the kind of work which entitles them to the Board's
assistance either Mrith or after the organization of the Board.
- Of the large addition thus made to the roll of aided schools^
by far the greater part dates from the Board's third and
fourth years. In its third year its list numbered twenty-
nine ; and in its fourth year it was as large as it now is. There
has been some variation of the list from year to year, but no
substantial increase of it ; and, for the most part, the same
names have stood forth in every report. The Board has
taken up very few institutions that have not proved their good
claim to its continuous aid ; and its policy has been to estab-
lish the institutions with which it has charged itself, rather
than to increase its charge beyond the Church's readiness to
provide for it. Of the names that have successively disap-
peared from its reports a very few, whose merit has not been
Digitized by VjOOQIC
OF THE BOARD OF AID. 9
questioned, have been thought to have no farther claim to the
aid of the Church at large. But in several cases application
for the Board's assistance has been voluntarily ended. Three
institutions are omitted from this year's Kst because they have
done no school work during the year. They are : Longmont
College, Colo., Oakdale Seminary, Neb., and Groton Colle-
giate Institute, South Dak. The causes of their arrest of
work are local and, in each case, may possibly give way.
Accordingly these names are retained upon the map.
The payments stated below consist chiefly, as in former
years, of amounts paid by the Board from its own treas-
ury; but in part, also, of the gifts made by churches to
special institutions, the Board givifig credit to such churches
as though their gifts had been put into its general fund.
This year, for the first time, as will be more fully set
forth on a later page, all appropriations of the Board
are paid in full. Actual final remittance has been made in
all but two cases, in which it awaits delayed reports from
the two institutions. Of the special receipts from legacies,
which made such payment possible, a large part became
available at the very close of the year. While the emer-
gency which is hereafter explained has required this partial
expenditure of legacies on the appropriations of the year,
the Board believes that its current income ought to meet that
whole demand of current work, and it will not make a prece-
dent out of a necessity that has been forced upon it while its
means and methods have been only developing, According
to its theory, all moneys coming to it by will, even if not so
restricted by the testator, should in prudence be reckoned with
that class of personal gifts which is soon to be described, and
should be appKed where they can be traced in permanent ad-
vantage secured to the school properties, and where they can
be guarded by lien.

2. Personal Givebs and Peoperty.
The means supplied by individuals for the relief or increase
of school properties have been given in different ways:
Sometimes directly to the institution, with the understand-
ing, however, that the gift was to be reported to the Board,
and to receive its acknowledgment. In the Board's first
year gifts of this sort were reported to the amount of
$13,603. In this last year similar gifts will be found here-
with reported (see "Direct Donations'') to the amount of
$3,350. The total of this sort of giving for the seven years
has been $116,738. Other gifts to special institutions have
been made through the Board's treasury. Such giving began
in the Board's second year, to the amount of $19,000. The
actual payments of this kind that have been made this year
aggregate $34,235.62. (For details, see Treasurer's statement,
pp. 30-1). Other gifts of the same class are waiting for trans-
mission till the legal papers necessary for the security of the
investment are executed. The total of the Board's receipts
for this purpose, from the beginning, has been $100,640.
For the confidence that has been shown it, both by
contributing churches and by personal givers, it is deeply
thankful. Of this latter class of helpers it should be said,
that if God had not moved them to give, at critical junctures,
their ready and, often, munificent help, all hearts would have
failed over a hopeless task.
3. Present Statistics.
Some idea of the results that have been reached will be
gained from the statistical tables here following. It must
be borne in mind, however, that any material change in
the list of aided institutions must make proportionate change
in the tables and their footings. Thus, while the absence of
the name of Park College, of Lenox, and of Carroll, indicates
no arrest of these institutions' work, and therefore no loss of
any outlay made by the Board upon them, the Board's show
of totals is immediately lessened by the lack of their reports.
That change leaves on the Board's roll but four colleges and
four academies that may not properly be called new. The
Digitized by VjOOQIC
12 SEVENTH ANNUAL EEPOBT
table, accordingly, comes to set forth chiefly the form and
growth of the Board's creative work. A detailed comparison
of the showings of this part of the tables, for the last year and
for this, will discover proof of a general advance. Three
particulars may be noticed :
The total of net property owned by same new institutions
shows an increase of $20,409. A great part of this change
has been made by the payment of debts. Some cases that
are known to be provided for, would add to that increase
$4:1,120. Fuller reference to this matter will be made
on a later page.
The increase of attendance in the same institutions has
been considerable, the new colleges alone reporting 111 more
students than a year ago ; namely, an increase of 13 in their
college classes, and of 98 in their preparatory.
The new institutions that reported last year 63 probable
candidates for the ministry, this year report 68.
One very interesting class of facts is not shown in the
tables : These young colleges have three graduates who have
completed their second year of theological study — two of them
at McCormick Seminary, and one at Princeton. A fourth has
been at McCormick one year; and a fifth, graduating this
summer, expects to enter there in the fall. The two more
advanced of the McCormick students are already preaching
(during their vacation), one of them having charge of a num-
ber of mission churches in Nebraska, among which are two
that were organized last year as a result of those labors of stu-
dents of Hastings College, which were described in the letter
of President Eingland, printed in the Board's last report.
The foregoing, however, are only the begini^ings of this class of
results. One of the young colleges reports, as the " prospect-
ive ministers " in its lower classes : " '91, one (of two men
and three ladies) ; '92, five (of eight men) ; '93, seven (of six-
teen)." This statement (from Emporia College), is far beyond
the average. Yet, what tendency the whole work has in
that direction appears from the following letter, which con-
cerns the newest school that has been organized under the
Board. It is written under date of April 16, 1890, by Rev.
Digitized by VjOOQIC
OF THE BOARD OF AID. 13
Dr. Henry S. Little, Synodical Superintendent of the Synod
of Texas :
Dear Brother : Trinity Presbytery held its meeting at Glen Rose. We
Tisited the institute fonnally, and were delighted with its management.
Among the notable things was the fact that three young men were receired
under the care of the Presbytery, with a view of entering the ministry. (He
speaks a good word for them, and adds) : Their coming amply justifies the
Presbytery in asking your aid. This fact alone is a return in full for all
that the churches have done for education in Texas.
The blank spaces in following table are explained by the
delay of the reports referred to on a former page.

III. FUTUEE POLICY.
The Board believes that the Church will look upon this
showing with the same feeling of encouragement with which
it is made ; and it beUeves, as well, that one chief element of
that encouragement will be the suggestion that must have
come to every interested reader, of a great improvement to be
made upon the Board's past methods. Has it not reached
a stage of strength at which the element of debt, however
unmanageable at first, can be early eliminated from its work,
and thenceforth eflfectually excluded ? As a Board, indeed,
it has never carried over a dollar of deficit to a new year.
It is with great thankfulness that it ends this more difficult
seventh year, like all the rest, with balanced books. But the
foregoing pages show that it cannot present a similar balance
on the books of all of its aided institutions. Yet it now sets
out to prove, by recent notable advance toward that result, that
it can be reached with little difficulty, and at an early day. If
such a point can be gained, cmd hdd^ the upbuilding of our
Church's new academies and colleges will become a process
as direct and sure as it is important.
1. Payment of all Existing Debts.
The facts which look to the clearing up of all existing debts
are such as these: Leaving aside three institutions which
have this year come upon the Board's list, the remaining 32
have, within the last two years, been carrying among them an
aggregate indebtedness of nearly $250,000. Of this the
larger part, by far, has been debt upon property. But the
debts accumulated from unpaid current work have been very
considerable. Of the gross amount just named, about $100,-
000 has, within two years, either been cleared off by payment
actually made, or has been so provided for that the Board
counts the early payment quite assured. Into that aggregate
of payment will have been put, from means received by the
Board from its personal helpers, a total of $51,000 ; the remain-
der, about one-half, will have been furnished to the several
institutions by their own personal friends. Thus the total of
Digitized by VjOOQIC
OF THE BOABD OF AID. 17
debts on the 32 institntions now stands practically reduced to
$150,000. But further movement is already making, look-
ing less definitely but hopefully to the extinguishment
of $50,000 of this remainder. The policy of the Board is
to stimulate local self-help by the offer of conditional assist-
ance from the "property fund" which individual contribu-
tors put at its disposal for that purpose. There is the best rea-
son for believing that the success which is so largely attending
that process will soon be complete. Kot only is the entire
remainder of debt small in comparison with the aggregate
of property against which it stands; the burdens are so distrib-
uted that most of them are small, in fact ; so that any judi-
cious advice and help from the Board will be sure to inspirit
the several communities for earnest effort in throwing them off.
With a continuance of its recent current of receipts from per-
sonal sources, the Board confidently expects to see the whole
list of its present schools free from debt within two years.
The worth in money of the properties thus assured to our
Church's educational work will, under conservative estimates,
be likely to exceed considerably a million dollars. But their
money value is no measure of their value to the Church. The
able friends of this cause have every motive to aid in the
early extinction of these remaining debts.
2. Balanced Curkent Accounts.
But the Board's best assurance that it will secure the
clearing off of old debts lies in its hope, which it has this year
substantially tested, of preventing the most insidious class of
new ones — namely, those which result from unbalanced yearly
accounts. Although the Bo£u*d had given much attention
to the fact that debt of that kind was yearly created by some
of its aided institutions, the measure of the evil was not defi-
nitely known except under a new form of return by balance-
sheet that had been provided for at the Board meeting of
November, 1888. Such returns were first received in the
fall of 1889, after the contracts for this school year of 1889-
90 had been made. These balance-sheets of 1888-9 were soon
followed by the applications of 1889-90, and the two sets of
Digitized by VjOOQIC
18 SEVENTH ANNUAL REPOBT
documents, when brought together, revealed the startling
facts that for the year then past the outgoes of current work
had exceeded corresponding income (the Board's appropria-
tions included) by about $30,000; and that the year then begun
would, under the estimates which the trustees had adopted and
forwarded, substantially duplicate that history. If such an
evil was to be arrested, it was necessary both to diminish, as far
as the interests of the schools would allow, the schedules of
current expenses, and to increase the schedules of assured in-
come. If any such increase could be made as would provide with
^certainty for all the expenses, including teachers' salaries as
already contracted for, of course the problem would be solved.
But the Board saw no way of so suddenly ensuring that result.
It did see a way, however, to such a considerable increase of
the incomes then in sight as would warrant it in frankly put-
ting before the teachers the alarming facts which it had dis-
covered, and in asking them, for the sake of the advantage
which an arrest of this debt-making would bring to their
schools and also to themselves, to unite with the tnistees in
arranging for this year as the teachers who manage schools
for themselves do always — namely, to take the whole income
of the year as specially increased; to see the other expenses
all paid, and to pay themselves out of the remainder. Of
course the first condition to the success of such a scheme
would be the demonstration of so much addition to income
that the teachers could afford to surrender their contracts and
trust the receipts. Toward that necessity the Board proposed
to contribute such increase in its appropriations as would
pledge an aggregate addition of $9,765 (and if its income
would allow, of $13,955) to the aid dealt to its institu-
tions in the former year. It expected, moreover, to stimulate
very generous subscriptions from the local friends of the several
schools. The teachers were to have all those additions before
them and to judge of their suflSciency before they should
accept the plan. Accordingly the scheme contemplated a
free conference between trustees and teachers, in a sort of
temporary joint-trusteeship, in which the year's new sched-
ules of expenses and income should be agreed upon.
Digitized by VjOOQIC
OF THE BOARD OF AID. 19
Such proposal was made to the trustees and teachers of the
thirtjHBeven applying institutions. The results have been
these: Thirty-five of the thirty-seven consented to the
arrangement, and made formal signature of the Board's paper.
One declined the proposal of squared accounts as impossible in
its case, and afterward withdrew its application. Another
saw reason, of which the proposal was set forth as part, for
withdrawing itself from the Board's list of aided institutions.
Inasmuch as three of the thirty-five are newly come upon the
Board's list, no comparison of year with year can be made in
their case. Two others were not aided in 1888-9. Concern-
ing the remaining thirty the following facts appear :
1. Under the joint review of trustees and teachers the
estimated current expenses, other than for payment of
teachers, were changed from $135,685 to $126,512 — ^a reduc-
tion of $9,173.
2. The total of expected income (apart from that to be
supplied by the Board) was raised from $73,947, as estimated
in the applications, to $87,413, as presented in the schedules
revised by trustees and teachers under the Board's proposal
and oflEers — an increase of $13,466.
3. The Board has paid over to the thirty-five institutions,
according to its largest intimation, $41,900, — $13,955 more
than it paid the year before.
4. Teachers' receipts for the two years, in the thirty
schools, will stand as follows : In 1888-9, 148 teachers and 5
tutors had claims to salaries aggregating $91,191. Actual
payment for the year reached only to $77,651. In paying
that amount the trustees borrowed or sunk of school property,
$7,579; and still they left 44 teachers and 2 tutors unpaid
in the aggregate sum of $13,540.
In 1889-90, assuming that subscriptions of the most trust-
worthy sort will be paid, 143 teachers and 8 tutors will re-
ceive the total of their claims as they themselves have stated
them. They amount to $97,183— $5,992 more than the
nominal salaries of the preceding year, $19,532 more than the
teachers received in that year, and $27,111 more than they
could have received if the trustees had not either borrowed
Digitized by VjOOQIC
20 SEVENTH ANNUAL BEPOBT
money or Bunk good property. This increase comes this
year with balanced books.
Bat for the fact that one of the three institutions which
the Board has this year newly taken up comes to it with a
debt previously incurred, additional debt of no kind enters
into the history of the seventh year of the Board of Aid.
5. Apart from the arrangement above described, the year
would not probably have ended without adding $30,000 to
the existing debts of the aided institutions ; which means, that
if the Board had been able to effect, during the year, the
removal, say, of $60,000 of debt, it would have been allowing
the full half of it to come back as new debt, for whose subse-
quent removal, the Board, that is, tJie ChurcKs h&neoclence^
would be required again to provide.
6. But this movement for the prevention of evil is doing
positive good. The hopeful effort which several communities
have made to balance the accounts of their schools, even for a
single year, has put new tone into their whole school work.
There is proof that over and above every gift referred to in
the foregoing recital, some of the Board's assisted schools are
this year gainers to the amount of many thousands in the
assured increase of their property, under that very spirit of
courage and purpose that has proved itself able to end one
year with balanced books.
Such a recital shows, on its face, some things that cannot
be incorporated into a standing method. Very plainly, the
Board's yearly financial arrangements are to be made with
trustees, and not at all with their teachers. Such measure of
its aid as the Board thought necessary in order to persuade to
the balancing of a year's work already contracted for, was
probably larger than it would dare to pledge to trustees as
basis of their new contracts. And it is further doubtful
whether the measure of local helpfulness that was shown by
individuals especially, can be counted upon year by year. But
there are elements of income that can be counted upon. The
yield of endowment, where any is had, is constant. Tuition
and other fees have constancy sufScient to be prudently esti-
mated. So long as need exists of resort to local aid from indi-
Digitized by VjOOQI^
OF THE BOAKD OF AID. 21
viduals or churches, a school that really deserves favor can
enlist some measure of such aid with constancy enough to
warrant an average expectancy. II then, in addition to these
items, the Board shall henceforth inform the several institu-
tions, at the end of each scholastic year, what aid they may
severally expect for the scholastic year following, it may prop-
erly leave with the b9ard8 of trustees the responsibility of so
arranging their contracts that the balance between outgoes
and income shall be assured. To this end, the Board should
promise to pay its entire appropriation, and not a percentage
of it ; with the understanding, however, that, in order to receive
payment of the first half of it, the trustees should present to
the Board such an itemized schedule of contemplated income
and outgoes as would show that the Board's promised aid
would effect the desired balance between the two ; and that,
in order to receive the last half, they should afterward present,
certified by vote of the trustees, at their annual meeting at the
close of the scholastic year, an itemized balance sheet, showing
that, with the exception of such outstanding bills as the Board's
final payment would be suflBcient to meet, all bills of the year
had actually been paid, and accompanied with the trustees'
pledge that the remaining bills should be paid so soon as the
expected remittance of the Board should be received. The
question whether or not an arrangement so rigid would carry
with it discouragement to the institutions and hardship to
their teachers, is simply the question whether or not the
Church will put the Board in funds for developing the schools
which she shall know to be economically managed. It is
believed that she will, and that, with such a system under-
stood, the Board's appropriations will rapidly grow large
enough to meet their theoretic purpose — of bridging over the
interval between the founding of a solid institution and its
complete establishment with means of self-support.
3. No Debt on New Properties.
If any such provision can be made against deficit in cur-
rent accounts, should it not be supplemented with some pro-
vision against the creation of debts for property ? Will it be
Digitized by VjOOQIC
22 SEVENTH ANNUAL BEPOBT
wise to stop Bmall leaks and to pay no regard to large ones ?
The Board, without claiming to have reached any unchange-
able conclusion on this grave matter, believes that, from this
time forward, it should be able to do for any new school
properties which are to come upon its list, just what the
Board of Church Erection does for church properties. It
should encourage such local foresight and liberality as truly
deserve its co-operation, by giving help enough to allow
their school work to start in a property that is paid for.
Not a dollar of income, received through this Boai*d, ought
to go to the paying of interest The school work needs
the whole of it, and the Church should be sure that it gets
the whole. The property so paid for might be modest in
all particulars except in the location and the proportions
of its site. In those matters there should be no defect.
The proper and ample site being owned without incum-
brance, the building could be provided by degrees, enough
of a well-planned whole being finished at first to meet the
present need. It is toward that completed part that the
Board should be able, if necessary, to contribute, taking a lien
to the amount of its contribution. And if, in order to com-
mand a position truly valuable, it should be necessary to erect
a building nearer the measure of its future needs than the
unaided conmiunity could hope to provide for, this Board
should be able to supply the substantial assistance that would
complete the arrangement. Very grave thought should be
given to the fact that the "West is at a stage of its develop-
ment when real prudence, backed by moderate available
means, can be little less than a creator of our Church's future
wealth. Such prudence, refusing to be tempted into any out-
lay upon land which it does not need, or to accept the land
which it does need, until local means and zeal are pledged to
liberal help in putting it to use, can grasp, at the right moment,
the opportunity which would never come back. Only for a
while will such opportunities last in any given town ; for, in
this matter, a young town is like a young tree ; there is a right
time for inoculating it. A tithe of the foresight by which the
Church of Rome possesses herseW of choice sites wherever she
Digitized by VjOOQIC
OF THE BOABD OF AID. 23
wants them, would keep this Board, in funds for meeting a
class of movements which are now made toward out Church,
even with eagerness ; but which the next generation of Pres-
byterian college-makers will recite with lasting gratification or
regret. Whatever beginning of property be thus made, the
Board should be able, on the one hand, to prevent all premsr
ture attempt at enlargement, by providing that the incurring
of any debt will preclude appropriation ; and, on the other
hand, to encourage enlargement when necessary, and to make
it safe, by adding to the local subscriptions the needed supple-
ment of its own means. Every additional investment should
be secured by additional lien.
The rule thus proposed would embrace only new institu-
tions. If any school or college that has hitherto been doing
its independent work should find itself in emergency that
would require the aid of the Board, such case could be judged
of by itself. But the Board's experience makes it exceed-
ingly unwilling to encourage any new undertaking that cannot
from the outset go on with squared accounts.
It is easy to foresee strenuous objections to this policy.
Every eager new community will be sure that the early rise of
value in real estate will enable their trustees to sell lots
enough to meet the mortgage that has been left on their fine
new building. There will be fears felt that to delay the open-
ing of a proposed school till its property is paid for will allow
some other denomination to get possession of the field. And
it will be thought that the proper responsibility and independ-
ence of trustees will be overridden by an arrangement which
prevents them from contracting a debt which they judge to
be unavoidable. But the Board is charged with its correlate
responsibility of soliciting and disbursing the trust-moneys
which the Church's institutions expect to receive. On no
other ground has it warrant for attempting to shape, in any
particular, the policy of any board of trustees. Nor has it
any choice or theory to urge in this regard apart from what it
believes to be the mind of those who supply its means. Yet,
after carefully weighing the question in all its aspects, it is
persuaded that when exclusion of debt from the start shall be

onderstood to be the Church's rule for all new institntionsy
this whole work will take on a reputation for solid advance
which will more than compensate for any incidental evils of
restriction or delay. Only let a proper proportion of our
Church's wealth be put at the disposal of a Board which at all
represents our Church's caution and steadiness, and as many
schools of every grade as the Church will ever develop and
endow can be begun and carried on without debt.
4. Current Investments to be Secured.
And to these proposed features of the Board's future pol-
icy another should, in prudence, be added. Cases may occur
of academies or colleges beginning work, and therefore begin-
ning to receive Board aid, without having had need of Board
investment in their property. They will therefore have given
the Church no security by lien that the teaching work into
which she puts her current aid will be maintained. It should
be understood that maintenance of current aid is to give the
Church some hold upon the property of the school which that
aid is yearly developing. It is evident, indeed, that for a part
of that current aid the Church is immediately getting her fair
return in the profit of the youth that are taught. But, at the
beginning of work especially, such return is so small as to be
only a pcu*t of the consideration for which the Church makes
her yearly payments of appropriation. The contemplated
quid pro qiu> lies largely in the expected future of the school;
and, to that degree, the yearly appropriation is nothing else
than investment, which the aided school should be legally
bound to return out of the proceeds of its property before it
has power to turn the property to any other use. Still, inas-
much as every community that produces a property for a
Presbyterian school itseW shows large faith in the success of
its undertaking, it would become the Board to meet faith with
faith, and not to demand any security for its earliest aid. But
if a year's experience under the Board's assistance encourages
the trustees to maintain their undertaking, they should be
willing thenceforward to give the assisting Church a legal in-
terest in their property to the amount of at least the half of
the assistance rendered.

IV. THE OUTLOOK.
1. Thb New Starting-Point.
Of course, all these additions to the secarity of the Board's
work of investment are meant to encourage an increase of the
volume of its means. Like many another builder, it has been
compelled to do some pile-driving and some pumping and
grouting, down in the depths where its foundations are laid.
But it counts its great building to be up now to the water-table,
and henceforth expects to put all expense into the shapely,
solid structure. Such growth will be visible, and it is expected
to find supporters. No former year has compared with this
in the amount of means put into our hands. To that increase
of Church collections that has been noticed on a former page,
is to be added the larger increase received from personal
gifts and from legacies. These forms of income all combined,
our treasury which in our first year received less than $15,000
this year reports nearly $100,000. Our second week of years
thus starts from a point quite different from the zero of seven
years ago.
And larger than this difference in mere finances is the dif-
ference of regard by which the Church now looks upon a liv-
ing cause which she has identified with her largest purposes
for the nation and the world. Already is it clearly seen —
and it is to be seen more clearly year by year — that that
work of education by Christian institutions to which the evan-
gelical Churches of our country have committed themselves is
to have a reach far wider than its effects on its immediate pu-
pils. The numbers directly taught in denominational schools
and colleges will always be small in comparison with the num-
bers that receive education from the State. Hence the im-
mense importance of the question. What can be done for
keeping the influence of the State school from becoming un-
friendly to the Christian religion ? Any hopeful answer must
point, not only to Christian schools and their alumni, but to
the whole practical outcome of their work. That outcome
will include particulars like these : A demonstration, in the
Digitized by VjOOQIC

sight of all interested parents, of the comparative moral and
religions inflnence of distinctively Christian education; the
production, in every region, of a good proportion of Christian
scholars who will do their share of the teaching work of the
next generation ; the maintenance of a perpetual reminder to
the secular schools that the eye of the Christian part of their
community is kept upon the demeanor of their teachers toward
the fundamental Christian facts. In proportion as the Chris-
tian schools gain in means and reputation, these effects may
be expected to grow till, by such manifest influences as God's
Spirit and providence have attached to Christian truth and
Christian people, there shall be developed a pervasive power
of restraint under which infidel teaching in the public schools
shall be impossible. Directly to that end is tending all that
interest in Christian education, which, advancing with our
Christian people into every newest region, forms a part of the
common thought of pioneer congregations, presbyteries and
synods ; which, encouraged and aided by this Board, produces
in good time some beginning of the kind of school which it
means to employ, and which resolves, with good hope, to carry
on that beginning to its ideal completion. In a word, there is to
be an immense education of our forming communities on this
great matter. Good beginning of it is already made ; but
to carry it on, this Board of the great contributing Church
must be the teacher. The lesson will not be complete till
there shall stand forth, in just distribution, academies and
colleges so furnished in buildings, equipment and endow-
ment that they can set some such standard of true education
at the West as even Princeton and Lawrenceville do at the
East.
2. Beasonable Expectations.
Such results will not come at once. But Presbyterian piety
is to control wealth enough for producing them ; and her motive
to employ it is to grow by every new sign of sound advance
toward the magnificent result. The foundations are now in
sight on which generations of the future givers of the West,
with their cohorts of thankful alumni, are to rear such increase
as a score or two of years have been building up in New
Digitized by VjOOQIC
OF THB BOABD OF AID. 27
Jersey. For insuring to our Church and nation a complete
provision of Christian schools with their best results, this
Board has full confidence, under God, in the following rules :
1. Plaut them only where they are needed.
2. Support them, not lavishly, but adequately, from the
start.
3. Keep trustees, teachers, Board, and the whole contrib-
uting Church assured that there is to be no waste and discour-
agement by debt.
4. Secure every investment of Church means by lien held
by the Church's Board.
5. Concentrate upon this movement the giving of the en-
tire Church, to the rejection of all appeals from schools or
communities that evade these reasonable terms.
The past seven years have left no room for doubting the
success of such a policy. The steady increase of the Church's
interest in this cause, and especially the increase of those
personal benefactions from which it must receive its chief
supply, pledges for it such a growing record as shall befit
this momentous and unretuming epoch in American things.
What an executor writes concerning the giver of a recent
unexpected legacy of $5,000 will be said, in eJBEect, of many
more: '^She found her thoughts turning to the destitute
regions of the West and South." Mrs. McCormick's act of
relieving and establishing Hastings College by her gift of
$15,000 will be so approved by its manifest results that it will
find many imitators. And Mr. Thaw's munificent legacy of
$50,000 is to stand as such an attestation of a sagacious man's
sympathy and confidence as might well have encouraged our
hopes, even if we had been near to despair. But our hopes
have been constantly encouraged; and this succession of
great and hearty benefactions coming within a single year
brings, not relief, but inspiration.

CONSTITUTIONAL PROVISIONS.
The following are the chief provisions under which this Board has been
constituted, as determined by the act of the General Assembly of the Pres-
byterian Church in the United States of America, in session at Saratoga,
N. Y., May, 1888:
The name of this Board shall be the Presbyterian Board of Aid for
Colleges and Academies, and the general work shall have the limitations in-
dicated by its title.
The Board shall consist of twenty-four members, divided into three
classes, composed equally of ministers and laymen, and one class shall be
elected each year.
The province of the Board shall be to secure an annual offering from the
churches for this cause; to co(5perate with local agencies in determining
sites for new institutions ; to decide what institutions shall be aided ; to
assign to those institutions seeking endowment the special fields open to
their appeals, that clashing between them may be avoided; and to discourage
all independent appeals to the Church at large.
The funds received by the Board shall be devoted either to current
expenses of struggling institutions, or to permanent endowments.
The funds shall be secured (a) by annual offerings from the churches,
mainly for current expenses of the institutions; (6) by special applications
for endowment under the approval and general direction of the Board.
Every institution hereafter established, as a condition of receiving aid,
either shall be organically connected with the Presbyterian Church in the
United States of America, or shall, by charter provision, perpetually have
two-thirds of its Board of Control members of the Presbyterian Church.
In the case of institutions already established, and not included under the
above provisions, appropriations for endowment shall be so made as to revert
to the Board whenever these institutions shall pass from Presbyterian control.
In all other respects the disbursement of funds by the Board shall be
wholly discretionary with the Board, both as to amount and direction, sub-
ject always to the control of the General Assembly.
BY-LAWS.
The following are the'more important by-laws adopted by the Board for
its guidance.
It shall be the duty of the Permanent Secretary to have charge of the
general work of the Board, subject always to the direction of the Board or
its Executive Committee. He shall conduct the correspondence; visit the
churches, presbyteries and synods; inform himself as to proposed college
sites, and the character and prospects of institutions applying for aid; send
out all notices; prepare an annual report to be submitted to the General
Assembly; and in every way, as the chief executive agent of the Board, seek
to promote the int«rests committed to it.

66 SEVENTH ANNUAL fiEPORT
The Board shall hold three stated meetings each year as follows: On the
Tuesday after the second Sunday of June and NoTember respectively, and
on the third Tuesday preceding the opening of the General Assembly. It
shall also meet on the call of the President, or in his absence, of any member
of the Executive Committee, when that oall is authorized by the written re-
quest of any five members of the Board, duly signed and submitted. Seven
members shall constitute a quorum.
The Board shall elect an Executive Committee consisting of seven mem-
bers, the President and Vice President being eoc-officio members of this Com-
mittee. It shall be the duty of this Committee to supervise the work of the
Board, to act as its executive on all matters committed to it by the Board,
to forward the business of the Board by all proper arrangement of its details,
and to report to the Board from time to time what may be deemed desirable
or needful action; and in the interval between the meetings of the Board, to
take all needful original action not involving the appropriation of funds.
No appropriation for aid shall be entertained without the endorsement of
the presbytery in the case of an academy, or of the synod in the case of a
college or university, unless sixteen members of the Board be present, and
the vote to consider the application be unanimous.
GENERAL INFORMATION.
INCOME SOLICITED.
This Board solicits two classes of gifts :
I. Gifts to its general treasury, out of which it makes annual appropri-
ations to the current expenses of those institutions which it finds to be
entitled to such assistance. It is only for this general treasury, and for its
current aid of the teaching work, that the collections of the churches are
asked. Personal gifts to the same treasury are also solicited.
PASTORS AND SESSIONS OF CONTKIBUTINO CHURCHBS
Which have not arranged another time for taking their collections, are re-
quested to take them in February, as was recommended by the General
Assembly of 1884; and also to accept the offer which, about January 1, is
made of a brief document (of which a specimen is then forwarded to every
pastor) for informing the congregation concerning this work.
II. Gifts for the increase of school property or endowment. Such
gifts are asked of individuals only, and the Board will not acknowledge as a
contribution to its work any church collection that shall be diverted from
the Board's general treasury and applied to clearing a debt or increasing the
property or endowment, even of one of its own institutions.
SOLICITATION OP PEE80NAL GIFTS.
In the matter of soliciting individuals for their gifts to the property of
institutions, the Board has made material change of its first methods. Its
latest commission of any canvasser ended with the year 1887. The policy
which it has since pursued and which is more and more approved by its ex-
Digitized by VJtOOQIC
OF THE BOABD OF AID. 67
perience, is, in substance, this: It is understood that any presbytery having
care of a needy academy, or any synod having care of a needy college, is the
proper judge of the form and measure of personal canvass to be made with'
in its oum howids by its own dependent institution. Within such limits, ac-
cordingly, the Board applies no policy of its own. But when an academy or
college seeks property gifts from beyond the limits of its presbytery or synod,
the method of supply that is held to be on every account the best, is for the
Church's Boaid to be informed of the institution's need, and to meet it,
either out of a general fund with which it shall be entrusted for that pur-
pose, or out of such particular gifts as it can secure by its own corres-
pondence or publications, or by the personal representations of its own o£S-
cers. The certainty of safe giving which is thus assured to the givers, the
saving of their time and patience, and the saving of the very large percen-
tage of canvassers* commissions and expenses, are advantages so manifest
that they hardly need to be named. Added to these, the Board's special rule
of securing by lien all the property gifts of which it is made the e?ia/nnel sets
its method far above comparison with the forms of independent solicitation
and venturesome giving to which liberal people have been accustomed. This
method cannot prevent any officer or friend of a needy institution from pre-
senting its case and claims among his personal friends (though even in such
case the giver should make a Board lien the condition of his gift.) But the
Board discourages any act of solicitation by any canvasser who prosecutes
his work by introductions, however secured. JVo such canvasser acts by its
authority. Its whole influence is thrown on the side of that other sort of
giving from which has grown the notable increase that is now making in the
property of its institutions — the giving by liberal individuals to the Board
itself, as the adviser, distributor and guardian of their benefactions. This
explanation is made at such great length for the purpose not only of fore-
stalling applications from institutions to the Board for such '* fields for can-
vass ** as it formerly assigned, but also of soliciting the direct and generous
co-operation of those who approve the Board's reasonable, secure and econom-
ical method. Will these latter kindly consider that the Board can distribute
only what it receives ; that its present bestowments are rapidly consuming
its present material, and that such a central fund as is here described can
never be maintained without a good degree of spontaneity in those who make
it up ? The only weak point in our scheme lies in that common inconsist-
ency by which even conscientious and thoughtful givers wait for the very
form of irresponsible personal persuasion to which they object; and when it
comes, yield to it in spite of their objections. We bespeak an increase in the
number of men and women who wishing to build up, at the West, Presby-
terian institutions of higher learning, themselves direct their means toward
this Board, to be distributed under its advice; and so are prepared to notify
any canvasser that his case is to be made out to the Board, which has the
means of sifting his claims and of securing what it gives.
LEGACIES.
The Board believes that its cautious methods and demonstrated results,
the assured permanence of the institutions which it is rapidly establishing and
Digitized by VjOOQIC
68 SEVENTH ANNUAL REPORT
the incalculable reach of their future influence in the nation and the world,
will appeal more and more to the thoughtful makers of wills. Information
will be given in regard to any feature of its general work, or concerning the
financial condition, the prospects and needs of any one of the institutions
under its care. It is incorporated under the laws of the State of Illinois by
the title, ** The Presbyterian Board of Aid for Colleges and Academies."
APPLICANl'S AND MODE OF APPLICATION.
Aid cannot be giyen to institutions, however excellent, that are owned by
individuals or by stockholders. They may be owned and controlled by an
ecclesiastical body belonging to our denomination, such as a synod or presby-
tery; or the ownership and control may be vested in a board of trustees
elected or nominated from year to year by such ecclesiastical body; or such
board of trustees may both nominate and elect their own successors, pro*
vided there be a stipulation in the charter or articles of incorporation that
two-thirds of the trustees shall always be members of the Presbyterian
Church in the United States of America.
Attention is asked to that "constitutional provision" above recited by
which it is made a part of the province of the Board "to co-operate with
local agencies in determining sites for new institutions." In advance of the
fixing of any site upon which Church aid is expected, whether for the pro-
duction of property or the maintenance of work, the movers in the attempt
should have the clearest understanding with the local presbytery or synod
on the one hand, and with the Church's Board on the other.
Under the policy approved by the General Assembly of 1890, the Board is
intent upon excluding debt of all kinds from the whole career of every insti-
tution which it shall take upon its list. Accordingly it will aid in propor-
tion to its ability and the demands of the case, in producing an adequate
property in which a new institution may begin its teaching work ; but it will
not give current help to any work that is begun before such adequate prop-
erty, including building as well as grounds, is distinctly provided for.
Communities that contemplate the establishment of their academy or col-
lege are hereby guarded against the belief that their local provision of
grounds, however admirable, coupled with a small proportion of the
requisite building-fund, can be supplemented with necessary means from the
Church through the Board. The scope of territory for which the Board has
to care is so vast, and it is so common for owners of land to offer desirable
plots together with considerable bonuses of cash, that to close with the offers
so made, even of the best sites, would require outlay immensely beyond the
Board's ability. It is only after a community has itself arranged both for a
desirable site to be had without encumbrance, and for the main pari of the
cost of the building in which the teaching work is to be begun, that the
Board can be expected to make any investment either in the property or
the teaching work. Its best advice, however, it will gladly give at any stage
of the undertaking.
It is farther to be understood that an institution having aid from the
Board as an academy forfeits all presumption that aid will be continued if

it changes its grade to that of a college without the full understanding and
previous consent of both its synod and the Board. .
APPLICATION FOR CURRENT AID
Is to be made by the trustees in formal meeting by filling out a form
which the Secretary will furnish upon request ; and it is to have approval
of the proper synod or presbytery, as the Board's by-law requires. The
annual meeting for voting upon these applications is held on the Tuesday
after the second Sunday in June. The appropriations so voted will at once
be made known to the several boards of trustees, in order that their outlay
for the next scholastic year may be adjusted to the foreseen income of the
year as supplemented by the Board's voted aid. The vote accordingly will
be made for a definite sum which the Board will hold itself obliged to pay,
but only upon the condition ( which has the full approval of the General
Assembly) that the cost of the year's work shall be actually balanced by
the year's income. In effecting such balance every academy will be allowed
to receive, over and above the Board's voted aid, the "Board of Aid collec-
tions " for that year of the churches of its presbytery, and every college
those of the churches of its synod, provided, in each case, that the contribut-
ing church shall have declared its choice for such application of its collec-
tion.
No institution having pledge of the Board's aid shall be at liberty, with-
out the Board's concurrence in writing, to create debt of any kind beyond
its own then visible and certain means of payment; and departure from this
understanding will release the Board from its pledge. But it will be the
Board's duty to assist, according to its ability, in such outlay for any insti-
tution as it judges to be necessary and as cannot otherwise be met.
In order to a proper distribution of its expected income, it is necessary
that the Board have all applications for the ensuing scholastic year put
before it at its June meeting; and since the information furnished by the
applications requires consideration by the Executive Committee in advance
of Board action, it is for the advantage of all concerned that the entire set
of facts be presented for study at least a fortnight before the day of meeting.
Institutions that withhold their applications beyond that time, and mean-
while furnish no satisfactory explanation of their delay, will be considered
to expect no aid from the Board for the year then begun. Indeed, the
nature of the application allows it to be prepared and forwarded many
weeks in advance of the meeting of the Board, and inasmuch as the infor-
mation which it gives often calls for explanatory correspondence, such early
sending is very desirable.
APPLICATIONS FOR AID IN THE PRODUCTION OR INCREASE OF PROPERTY
Or in the removal of existing debt, should be made in writing and be so
explicit as to lay before the Board all the substantial facts of the case;
should be certified as adopted by the applying trustees by formal vote in a
meeting regularly called, and should have formal approval of presbytery
or synod, as in the case of application for current aid.

70 SEVENTH ANNUAL BEPORT
ACTION OF THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY
At Saratoga, N. Y., May, 1890.
The seventh annual report of the Board of Aid for Col-
leges and Academies was, by the General Assembly, referred
to the following Standing Committee :
Ministers — John Hemphill, D.D., Francis Brown, D.D.,
J. P. E. Kumler, D.D., Thomas X. Orr, D.D., Francis S.
Blayney, Robert F. McLaren, David B. Duncan, Howard
Billman. Elders — Henry V. Freeman, Peter D. Hamilton,
Judson E. Carpenter, James Browne, Squire L. Vanpelt,
William D. Dobson, James M. Harris.
This committee presented by its chairman, Rev. John
Hemphill, D.D., the following report, which was unanimously
adopted :
Your Standing Committee on the Board of Aid for Ck>lleges and Acade-
mies respectfully reports :
That this, the youngest-bom of our Boards, is a remarkable child for its
years. It has been healthy and vigorous from the hour of its birth. It is
healthy and vigorous still. It is no longer in swaddling-clothes. It has
"fulfilled its week" of years, and appears before you to-day with the
** promise and potency,*' of a still more healthy and vigorous life in the years
to come. It has come, and it has come to stay. It is no longer an experi-
ment— it is a fact. That such an agency is needed to superintend and push
forward the work of higher Christian education in this land is too evident
to admit of argument. The wonder is that such an educational agency did
not appear in such a Church as ours long before. The mighty tide of popu-
lation is flowing westward in irresistible currents, and some of us shall live
see a vaster empire west of the Mississippi than east of it. Professor Fiske,
a cautious and conservative thinker, estimates that a hundred years hence
the United States will contain a population of not less than six hundred
millions. This may be exaggeration, or it may not. The undisputed fact
remains, that our population is increasing very fast.
All missionary work is important at all times ; but there are times when
special forms of missionary work call for immediate action. The Board of
Aid is doing such missionary work, and the time to push that work is now.
Grants of land for school and college sites are now offered to us, which will
not be available later on. And as the population we have is now shaped
under the redeeming and uplifting influences of the Gospel by means of
school, and academy, and college, and toiling missionary, so shall be the
larger population of the years to come.
Your Committee have read attentively and considered carefully the able
and elaborate report of the Board submitted to this Assembly. We con-

gratulate the Assembly and the Board on the work accomplished by it.
Some of us said sadly when this Board was created: ** Another Board for
an annual collection." But it has already more than proved its right to an
annual collection, and, therefore, its right to be. We oall the attention of
the Assembly to the following facts stated in the report:
The number of contributing churches has risen steadily from year to
year. In its first year it had 480 contributing churches; in its second, l,3d0;
in its third, 1,529; in its fourth, 1,761 ; in its fifth, 1,865; in its sixth, 1,902;
in its seventh, 2,030; and the increase of its receipts has kept step with the
increase of contributing churches. In its first year it received less than
$15,000; this year more than |84,000.
This is the bright side of the picture. Look at the other side. Of the
184,000 received by the Board, only $32,000 came from the churches, the
rest being gifts of individual donors and legacies; and of the 6,800 churches
on the roll of the Assembly, only 2,030 contributed to this Board. We have
inquired diligently into the causes of this lack of loyalty on the part of more
than two-thirds of our churches to the recommendations of Assembly after
Assembly, which call upon every church to take up a yearly collection for
this Board ; and we are persuaded that the neglect arises, partly from mis-
conception and partly from carelessness on the part of pastors and church
sessions. Many churches take annual collections for this Board, and then
pay the same, not into its treasury, but into the treasury of some local insti-
tution of learning, very needy and highly deserving, but not under the
Board's care, thinking that thereby they have fulfilled their obligations to the
Board and the Assembly. Hence it is that so many churches reported as
contributing to *' Aid for Colleges" in the minutes of the Assembly, appear
as non-contributors in the report of the Board. This is not right. Every
collection for this Board ought to be paid promptly into the treasury of the
same. We trust that the members of this Assembly will return to their
presbyteries with this Board as a special burden upon their hearts, and do
what they can to bring light concerning this Board, where now there is dense
darkness, that so the non-contributing churches may come up to the full
measure of Gospel requirement in respect to this important arm of our
denominational life and work.
There are so many things worthy of special commendation and emphasis
in the policy of the Board, that we hardly know where to begin, or which
to commend the most. In its wise caution in withholding aid from institu-
tions whose prospects of permanence are not hopeful ; in its settled purpose
to help only those which manifest a disposition to help themselves; in its
discouragement of the multiplication of useless schools and colleges; in its
unswerving loyalty to its original determination to keep out of debt, never
having ''carried a dollar of deficit to a new year," in its reduction of old
debts and its prevention of new ones — in all these things and many more,
the policy and work of the Board are worthy of all praise. Your Committee
desires to call special attention to the Board's policy of preventing new debts.
Such debts for current expenses were being created from year to year in
many of the aided institutions. For example, the balance-sheets of the
aided institutions for 1888-9 showed that the outgoes for current expenses
Digitized by VjOOQIC

had exceeded the income by about $80,000. This was patting money into
a **bag with holes." The evil must be arrested; and it has been by an
arrangement made for the emergency between trustees, teachers and the
Board, tt has been so successful as to secure for erery institution the
important result of balanced books, and at the same time greatly to increase
the teachers' income for the year. For the future the Board's arrangement
for the prevention of this great evil is made by stipulation between itself
and the several boards of trustees.
Your committee have carefully examined the minutes of the Board, and
find them correctly kept; and recommend their approval.
In view of the foregoing facts we recommend tiie adoption of the follow-
ing resolutions:
1. That the Assembly recognizes with gratitude the manifold blessings
of God upon the work of this Board in the seven years of its history, and
earnestly prays that these blessings may be multiplied in the years to come.
2. That we heartily appreciate the fidelity, zeal, and business-like
sagacity with which the Board has carried forward the work committed to
its care.
8. That its seventh annual report shows it to have reached such a stage
both of results and of efficiency as warrants a great and immediate increase
of its resources.
4. That its success in removing all debt from many of its most valuable
school properties, its good prospect of rapidly reducing what debt remains,
and its twofold policy of preventing future debt and of securing all prop-
erty gifts by lien, deserve the attention and co-operation of all who wish to
make safe investments in behalf of Christian education.
5. That as rapidly as any college or academy is cleared of debt, the Board
is advised to state in the " Church " magazine and in its annual report the
nature and the value of the property so cleared ; and that individual givers
are hereby urged to arrange with the Board for so endowing such schools by
secured investments that they shall be established in their work, and relieve
the Board from yearly contributing to their support.
6. That, in order to encourage the work of endowment by personal gifts,
it is of the first importance that the churches, by their annual collections,
make adequate provision for the Board's supply of current aid to unendowed
institutions; and that for the year now begun the churches are urged to raise
their joint contributions for this purpose to the sum of $60,000, and to hold
all collections taken in the Board's name sacred to its distinctive work, as
administered by itself.
7. That the following persons be, and hereby are, elected members of the
Board, to serve three years, namely: Ministers — B«v. S. J. Niccolls, D.D.,
Rev. J. H. Worcester, Jr., D.D., Rev. Robert Christie, D.D., Rev. H. D.
Jenkins, D.D. ; Laymen — W. 0. Hughart, Henry W. Johnson, Dexter A.
Knowlton, John C. Grant; and that Rev. Thomas C. Hall be elected to fill
the unexpired term of Rev. John F. Kendall, D.D., deceased.
All of which is respectfully submitted.
JOHN HEMPHILL. Chairman.
Henkt V. Freeman, Secretary.

REPORT OF THE
6E|iEI|IIL ISSiBLT'li SPEGl GOmminEE
—OF THE—
PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH,
—ON—
SYSTEMATIC BENEFICENCE.
1890.
The Assembly's Committee on Systematic Beneficence respect-
fully presents its Eleventh Annual Report, traversing the first year
of a new decade in this work. We are thankful that our numbers
are intact, that no record need be made, as so sadly in these recent
years, of members removed by death. In the important duties rele-
gated to us by the Assembly, of informing and stimulating the
Church in regard to best principles, and wisest methods of benevolent
giving, we have found the usual difficulties, which experience has
led us to expect, in alteringold habits of life and thought throughout
the Ch\irch. New measures require time to demonstrate their
superiority, before they supplant the old. Innovations that call for
thought, work and sacrifice, are not apt to be swiftly popular. Yet
our previous effort has been evidently fruit bearing, in the wider
information and interest of our ministry, officers and people. So
that a large part of the available time and strength of your Commit-
tee has been spenlf in coaching the early efforts of Sessions and
Churches that resolve to run upon the new lines of effort opened to
them by advice of the Assembly, at your Committee's instance.
Modes and principles that have behind them the word of God and
the verdict of experience, will not long suffer rejection in a church
like ours. The reward of your Committee has been always in hand,
through the kindly, sometimes enthusiastic welcome with which our
efforts have been greeted in all parts of the church. A new era of
Christian giving has unquestionably begun in the Presbyterian
church. If our feeling of the public pulse is at all to be trusted,
the popular heart is beating with a healthier movement towards
those Scriptural reforms in giving, for Christ's sake, to which our
denomination is now distinctly committed, before God and the
world. A true beginning has been made. We may be content to
build slowly, if we only build firmly.
Digitized by VjOOQIC
A few years ago, the immense practical truth that God was to
be worshiped by the offerings of his people, was only here and there
accepted, with a few sporadic applications to practice.
Systematic giving was making some advance under special
appeals from straitened Boards. The proportionate consecration of
every Christian's income, as God has prospered him, was seen by
some eyes to be Biblical, yet slenderly accepted in practice, and
never vigorously enjoined by the church, in practical modes of oper-
ation. Now, all three of these grand basic foundations of Christian
beneficence are established in our Constitution, by deliberate action
of the Presbyteries. In recent Assemblies, and by action of our
lesser judicatories, in large majority, these principles are now con-
tinually reaffirmed. What the mind of the church has received and
what its convictions have accepted, its heart must adopt with enthu-
siasm and its hands carry out with practical zeal, in fealty to Christ,
before these great truths of principle and policy can be anything
among us, but a breath upon the air.
The new Chapter VI, in our Directory for Worship, is con-
stantly aiding us, as we anticipated, in the efforts we have had in
hand. The varied advantages and the flexible adaptation of the
system of weekly worshipful giving, there commended, are pressing
it upon the churches' mind with frequent successful adoption. Yet,
in some Presbyteries, not a single church has turned into line as yet.
Presbyterial Committeemen on Beneficence, as well as conservative
Pastors and Sessions, need stirring in such cases to examine with
more intelligent sympathy, and to endorse with keener zeal, such
Scriptural methods, whose pronounced success is sure to follow their
hearty adoption, and which, loyalty to our church will never allow
to be condemned, unheard or untried.
The latest efforts and most careful studies of your Committee
for the past year have been expended upon the problem of Propor-
tionate Giving, as the best individual rule of Christian giving and of
financial policy for the church. Qur reports have for years indi-
cated our conviction, which is in no wise weakened by lapse of time,
or watchfulness of observation — ^that the great benevolent advances
of our church in time to come, must largely run along that line. The
resolutions of many Synods and Presbyteries, as such action has been
communicated to us, show that this conviction is creeping into the
thought of the church at all points. Very few Synodical or Presby-
terial resolutions on the subject of Beneficence have come to our
notice, where the matter of Proportionate giving, as the rule for
Christian life, is not prominently set forth, and none where it is in
any way antagonized. Many important judicial bodies have llud great
stress upon the importance of pushing this endeavor to the utmost.
Digitized by VjOOQIC
We quote from the last Minutes of the Bjnod of Indiana, as
representative of this feeling:
"The O. T. bj its system of tithes^ and the N. T. hj its injunctions to give
as Qod gives, and to lay by in store on the first day of the week as Ood has
prospered each one, present proportionate, systematic, thoughtful giving as the
only Scriptural standard. There can be no doubt that the failure to reach this
Scriptural standard is the cause of the distressing lack of funds today to enable
us to enter the world's open doors. On this point our General Assembly's
Committee has well said : 'The desideratum now is the distinct arithmetical
setting apart, in the sense of glad, conscientious duty, some definite part of every-
one's income, large or small.' We, therefore, most earnestly urge upon every
minister and elder the duty of bringing this matter of thoughtful,proportionate
giving to the attention of the people of our churches.
''Scriptural proportionate giving asks from everyone, young and old, rich
and poor alike, his share in the Lord's work."
A year ago, your Committee asked the patient, judicious con-
sideration of the Church in regard to a scheme upon which we were
then just entering, viz.: by a "Presbyterian Union of Proportionate
Givers," on a severely simple plan, without expense or organization,
for the purpose of encouraging and uniting persons who are begin-
ning, or have already formed' the habit of setting aside a definite
percentage of income for religious and charitable purposes, and of
enlisting their co-operation in the extension of this practice. For
the purpose of economy and for comparison of results, we have em-
ployed this method tentatively in some Synods, and not in others,
distributing a prospectus and simple pledge — our Document 28— to
the number of about 40,000, by a plan for reaching individuals in
each church supplied, and providing a method of knowing its results,
through a return coupon to be sent back to us. In this endeavor we
have been well aided by one of the members of our Committee, who
has supplemented this general effort by disseminating large numbers
of an identical document into many quarters not hitherto reached by
our endeavor. The result of this effort has convinced us of its great
utility. At the same time it has almost demonstrated the paucity of
members in our Communion, who have, as yet, conscientiously dedi-
cated to God and his Kingdom, any definite portion of their incomes.
Judging from the results of this investigation, by the returns
made to your Committee during the year, in the field thus far
traversed, about one in ten of our ministers, and not more than one
in eighty of our church members, have yet adopted any such definite
rule of proportionate giving, as would insure to the cause of Christ
any distinct and regular share whatever, of the means wherewith the
Lord has prospered them. But so encouraging appears to be the
local influence exerted, and so prompt and decided have been the
favoring resolutions adopted by many Presbyteries and Synods, even
— 3—
Digitized by VjOOQIC
thus early, in regard to this "Proportionate GiTers^ tJnion/' that
we should deem it the policy of your Committee, however consti-
tuted in future, to continue throughout the whole church an effort,
which, even in partial application, has showed itself so searching
and stimulative in the wisest lines of our endeavor. We have tried
to discover how the good seed was springing, how these principles
were working — so novel, so untried, so unpopular, as yet
This has been a still-hunt to a great extent, thus far, not noisy,
not conspicuous, but provocative of much inquiry and heart-search-
ing among our members, and susceptible of great possibilities of
training and reform among them, in the hands of faithful
pastors. It has brought forth, in our correspondence, a large
amount of new testimony to the individual blessings of proportion-
ate giving, and not one unfavorable verdict from any who have
honestly, ex animo, made trial of the principle.
We are happy to perceive that very many churches are adapt-
ing the pledges and the various literature issued by your Committee,
to publications for their own local use.
Again, we acknowledge gratefully, the inestimable aid given in
our effort by the Committeemen of Presbyteries and Synods. These
brethren must continue to be largely our channel of communication
with the bodies that they represent. We ask that they be retained,
if efficient and interested, in order that experience may give facility
and power to their influence, and that, when changes must be made,
brethren of acknowledged and conspicuous interest in the cause we
represent, should, if possible, be appointed. Push and piety and
patience are three indispensable requisites for the helpers we desire.
The growing practice is greatly to be commended among our
judicatories, of publishing their Beneficence Reports for general cir-
culation, statedly reminding Sessions of their standing in benevolent
gifts, inquiring as to their methods and ability, informing them of
what the rest are doing. So kindling quickened interest and urging
them to improve upon themselves. Such active supervision pays.
Presbyteries and Pastors could do wonders, if they would, in starting
non-contributors and spurring up the laggards.
We venture to quote from the excellent report of the Synod of
Illinois, a few sentences, to illustrate this kindly but crucial self-
inspection :
'The contrast in the benevolent contributions of the different Presbyteries
is very marked, and ought to give us instruction. Omitting Chicago Presbj-
tery, in which are some very wealthy men, who are large givers, we ask why
should Springfield and Bloomington Presbyteries give more than three times as
much as Mattoon and Alton ? Your Committee cannot fully solve the question,
but feel sure that it is mainly due to the fact, that the Committees on Sys-
— 4 —
Digitized by VjOOQIC
tematic Beneficence and the leading pastors of the f onner Freshyteries began
earlier and have been more faithful to agitate the subject of Beneficence.''
Here is a hint as to the motive springs of power. To adopt
practically in Christ's great church, the principle which we have
recorded as our creed in beneficence, would give as grand an impulse
to the march of Christ's Kingdom, as ever steam gave to the arts,
or type and presses to literature.
We look with favor upon the plans now partially in vogue in
some Presbyteries and Synods, of wisely apportioning, among the
bodies represented, the sums needed for the work in hand. It might
be wise for the General Assembly to make such a move itself, appor-
tioning the minimum amount needed for our Church Boards among
the Synods, and they among the Presbyteries and so on, until the
individual churches are all reached. Synodical Sustentation has
been successfully carried forward by just such a method in the State
of New Jersey. Still, back of any such assessment would be the
question as to best methods of reaching it from the individual. All
our plans of systematic, proportionate giving would still press as
cogently as ever.
Your Committee has always publications in print, which are
suggestive and useful to Pastors and churches in reference to best
methods and principles of giving. These documents we are glad to
send gratis and postage paid, to any applicant who will faithfully use
them.
Complaints still reach us that are deep, if not loud, as to irregu-
lar and independent canvassing of our churches, through various
appeals for aid. Sometimes these applications are endorsed by ofii-
cers of our Boards. If successful, injustice is done through partiality
and the general work is so far crippled. It would seem to promise
gain, if some just and wise method could be devised by the Assembly
of lessening these special appeals; while securing every possible
increase for the treasury of the particular Board, whose province it
should be to deal with such cases.
It is one part of the duty of your Committee, each year, to pre-
sent, in comparative tabulation, the financial statistics of our Boards.
The picture presented to a careful examination is calculated to
impress anew upon the Church, both our splendid ability and our
sorry lack. Instead of the constant advance that should be expected
from the living, growing body, we find a decrease in those receipts
which testify most surely, the Church's vital beneficence. The
ebb is slight, but real. Shall it be the beginning of a receding tide ?
Not if the proper principles and plans of Christian giving shall pos*
sess the hearts of our people. But unquestionably where we need
— 5 —

speedjy practioal revision of standards, is in our standards of benefi-
cence. The personal confession of faith and consecration to Jesus
Christ, of thousands, will need radical reconstruction, before our
Lord shall fairly get his own among us, from the offerings of
Christian money.

Here appears a net increase of only $27,162, in receipts of our
combined agencies, from all sources. This shows a smaller gain than
for many years past. Yet, in all fairness, there should be added to
this the sum of $77,263, which was included in the Foreign Board's
receipts of a year ago, as taken temporarily, for current expenses,
from reserved funds. This amount has been reinvested now, and
disappears from the current statibtics of this year. So that the total
gain is really $104,425. This will also render partial explanation of
the immense comparative decrease in the year's entire receipts of the
Foreign Board. With this correction made, the deficit is large
enough — no less than $61,564.
The large gains for Freedmen and College Aid, are the more
encouraging since they obtain also in the gifts of churches and indi-
viduals. In Church Erection, payments on Mortgages and Manse
Loans, to the amount of $14,368, are included under the head of
total receipts.
In Ministerial Relief, the above statement does not include
any part of the Centenary Fund.
All the gain in total receipts is for permanent investment, of
which only the interest is used. The large increase of $79,438, arises
entirely from legacies, which furnished $65,409 in excess of last year.
The other Boards have received from legacies as follows: Home
Missions, $187,173. Foreign Missions, $112,877. Education, $16,
932. Church Erection, $6,539. Freedmen, $40,030. Aid for
Colleges, $15,550.

Here is a raost suggestive net decrease of $17,808. In Home
Missions, while the women and children have increased in systematic
giving, as they always do, the men of the churches have fallen off*
this year, to the extent of $19,814, in their support of this important
cause. The embarrassing fluctuations caused by our more prevalent
methods of Church Contribution, are illustrated by the fact that while,
on February Ist, the receipts of the Home Mission Board were $97,
000 in advance of the same date in 1889, in February, 1890, the re-
ceipts fell off $10,000, and in March, $85,000, as compared with the
same months last year. The Board comes to the Assembly with a
debt of $80,000.
In this table. Foreign Missions have received $26,045 less than
last year — and report a debt of $60,275.
Freedmen also have a debt of $11,000, with balance of $4,809,
and Education reports a debt of $8,700, with small balance. The
debts of the Boards amount, altogether, to $159,975. Balances,
without debt, are reported by Relief, $15,263; College Aid, $11,706,
and Temperance, $409. Women's Societies have nobly swelled
the amount credited to Churches by their increased gifts of $286,627
for Home Missions — not including the value of Boxes provided —
$280,285 for Foreign Missions, and $26,117 for Freedmen. Sabbath
Schools have aided to the extent of $34,319 for the Home Board,
$36,062 for the Foreign, $2,039 for Relief, and $31,264 for Publica-
tion and Sunday School work.

A net increase of 1103 contributions.
In Home Missions the advance in Contributing Churches covers
the last two years, from 1888, since the Board gave us no report
under this table last year.
We again take pleasure in acknowledging another gift of $100
for your Committee, from Alexander Guy, Esq., of Oxford, Ohio,
reducing to that extent our draft upon the Assembly.
Your Committee recommends the following action to the
Assembly:
1. That all Presbyteries and Synods be a^n instructed to
maintain efficient Committees on Systematic Beneficence, who shall
report to and co-operate with the Assembly's Special Committee.
2. That Presbyteries be advised to call their churches, annu-
ally, to account, at some regular meeting, in reference to their com-
. pliance with the recommendations of the Assembly.
3. That the useful practice of some Presbyteries through their
Beneficence Committees be approved, in calling conventions for
prayer and discussion in reference to Christian Giving, and in
publishing comparative tables of their Churches' gifts for stimulus
and information.
4. That the new chapter VI, of the Directory for Worship,
be warmly commended to all our Churches, and advice given to them
as before, to discourage combination in the same offering of self-
support and gifts for the Boards.
5. That every Minister be challenged to secure the instruction
of his congregation in the grace and duty of liberality for Christ's
sake, and in scriptural principles of ^ving; also to keep them in-
formed as to the work of our various Boards, with the needs of each
particular cause; especially to train the children and youth of his
charge in true principles and habits of Christian giving.
6. That every member be earnestly advised in his Christian
stewardship, to adopt the practice of proportionate giving, as God
hath prospered him.
7. That this Assembly again establish between our several
Boards an equitable ratio of distribution for the guidance of Churches
in apportioning undesignated gifts.
Respectfully submitted
In behalf of the Committee.

THE Ninth Annual Report
OF THK
General Assembly's Permanent Committee on Temperance,
For the Year Ending May 1st. i"890.
Presenttd fo the General Assetnbhj at New York.
It is with unexpected joy and satisfaction that the General Assem-
bly's Permanent Committee on Teraf)erance reports the work done
and the general results attained during the past year. It is a well
known fact that the oi:)enly aggressive movements on behalf of temper-
ance during the past year have not been very encouraging and we have
feared that the defeat of the Prohibition Amendments in Michigan,
Pennsylvania and some other states might have had a depressing, para-
lyzing and perhaps a reactionary influence in regard to the cause through-
out the country, but if the reports which have come to us have any
significance this has not been the case. Indeed there seems to have
been a steady, healthy and most hopeful advance made along the whole
line, indicating a growing conviction on the part of our very best
citizens that the iniquitous liquor traffic must by some means or other
be brought to an end.
In order to test the feeling of the church in regard to this matter,
your committee sent out a circular containing three points of inquiry.
The first was in regard to methods of work and the efficiency with
which they were prosecuted. The second was in regard to any notice-
able change in the christian sentiment on the subject of temperance and
the third was in relation to the acceptibility of the past deliverances of
the General Assembly.
Digitized by VjOOQIC
We are happy to state that the answers to these inquiries were far
more numerous, full and satisfactory than any similar reports have ever
been, and, in addition, there was a snap, determination and aggressive
spirit manifested in these reports which was most hopeful and far in
advance of the average in times past.
Ifi regard to the first inquiry, while no new methods of work have
been suggested or adopted, nearly all of the reports speak of the unan-
imity and earnestness with which the ministers are advocating the
cause of temperance in their pulpits. In some Presbyteries they are
required to preach on the subject at least once a year, and in others
every quarter. Sabbath schools in increasing numbers are devoting
the last Sabbath of each quarter to the consideration of this subject.
In some of them Bands of Hope are organized, and in others temper-
ance pledges are taken by the children when they reach a certain
age. In nearly all the reports the good work of the Woman's Chris-
tian Temperance Union is spoken of and commended.
In relation to the second question the reports assure us that there is
no retrograde movement among Christian people, but in nearly every
instance we are encouraged to believe that there is a steady undertone
of feeling inimical to the liquor traffic which is gradually asserting
itself, and which cannot but be felt and sooner or later be productive
of very great good.
Among the causes operating to produce this result the following have
been referred to, viz.: The high position taken by the Assembly in its
various deliverances, the effect of which can scarcely be overestimated,
the inherent wrong in the traffic, the utter rottenness of the whole
business as revealed in our courts of justice, the iniquitous means by
which it is promoted and the utter lawlessness of those engaged in it.
It is becoming more and more evident that the reason why Prohibition
does not prohibit is that the thing proposed to be prohibited is by in-
stinct as well as practice not only a law-breaking but a law-defying
business. Men are not prevented from engaging in it because
they will not be. Of course, in an issue of this kind there is left to
the Christian conscience no room for choice. So that it matters not
what temporary reverses may overtake the cause itself; the individual
Christian no less than the Church itself is bound to stand by the right
and testify against that which tends only to evil.
It is most gratifying to your committee to learn how unanimously
and heartily the past deliverances of the Assembly are endorsed by the
several Presbyteries. The only exception noted is to the so-called
Digitized by VjOOQIC
3
explanatory. clause added to the otherwise most admirable deliverance
of the last year.
The objection to this is not so much that action is wanted in favor
of any distinct line of political action, but because, under the circum-
stances that explanatory clause seemed to commit the Church agamst
any political action which is certainly not the voice of the Church.
With this single exception, the past deliverances are referred to not
only with approbation, but with evident feelings of pride and gratifi-
cation. Not a few of the reports refer to the admirable results flowing
from the distribution of our tract containing a summary of these de-
liverances among the jJfeople.
It is also interesting to note that not one of these reports refers to
High License with approval as a remedy for the evils connected with
the liquor business, but in everyone in which it is referred to, it is with
manifest disapproval, for the reasons that it is wrong in principle,
compromises the State, does not materially lessen the amount of liquor
sold, and that high-priced intoxicants are just as prolific in the pro-
duction of drunkenness and its consequent pauperism, crime, taxation,
lamentation, woe and ruin to the bodies and souls of men, so eloquently
referred to one year ago, as that sold under lower license. The testi-
mony of the Presbyteries in the Synod of Wisconsin and Nebraska ^re
especially emphatic in regard to this matter. One of these reports,
after declaring that the theory of High License is a delusion and a
snare, closes with these emphatic words : '* We want no compromise
with evil. We want no blood money to pay our taxes and educate
our children. . We want no sympathy with a power that frameth mis-
chief by a law.'*
Another interesting fact brought to light in these reports is that,
owing to the increasing light and recent discoveries in regard to the
utter rottenness and diabolical character of the whole liquor business,
it is rapidly being put under ban, and only tolerated as an evil to be
gotten rid of as soon as possible. It 'iS' no longer considered respect-
able for men in good society to drink at an open bar. The treating
habit, once so common among young men, is rapidly disappearing,
the window curtains are being drawn tighter and the door screens
made both higher and broader. The wine cup, too, is rapidly being
banished from all good society, and what fills your committee with
special joy is to learn from the report sent us by the Presbytery of
Washington City that even there " the social customs are rapidly
changing for the better, liquor being banished from the tables of many
at public dinners and other receptions." The truth is that the drink-
Digitized by VJtOOQIC
ing habit is rapidly coming to be regarded as an un-American institu-
tion, and is largely being handed over to foreigners who flock to this
country, bringing with them their drinking and other evil habits, and
by their great numbers and skill manage to terrorize and hold in abey-'
ance our politicians so as to maintain the protection of law for their
nefarious traffic. If it were not for this significant fact, unless all signs
fail us, the temperance jubilee could not long be postponed and the
nation redeemed from the curse of strong drink.
THE WORK OF THE COMMITTEE.
In regard to the work of the committee during the past year we have
to report that very soon after the sitting of the last Assembly we de-
termined to take a new departure and announced through nearly all of
our religious newspapers that we would, to the extent of our ability,
furnish gratuitously any of our publications that might be called for to
those who would undertake to wisely distribute them, the applicants
simply paying for their transportation. Our reason for making this
announcement was that we found by experience that the communities
most neieding information were the ones least disposed to seek it and
especially to purchase it. Facts have fully demonstrated the wisdom
of the course pursued. We have met to a very liberal extent every
call made upon us. A very large amount of our literature has been
sent into Nebraska and other States where it was especially needed,
and while the general demand has not been as large as we anticipated,
it has been constant and from almost all parts of the country.
We have during the past year, besides distributing a large amount
•of matter on hand at the close of the preceding year, issued a large
edition of a new tract written by the chairman, entitled, '* The Li-
cense System Wrong in Principle." We have also re-published the
deliverances of the General Assembly, bringing them up to the pres-
ent time. Also, ** The Temperance Catechism." Both of these latter
publications are greatly sought after and appreciated.
We had made arrangements for the publication of a tract to be pre-
pared by one of our ablest ministers on the *' Moral and I^gal Right
of Prohibition," and had reserved funds for that purpose, but as yet
the manuscript has not come into our hands, but this tract will be pub-
lished as soon as it is prepared.
As will be seen by referring to our Treasurer's Report, the contribu-
tions have not been large, but they have covered a large district of
country and have been sufficient to meet our necessary expenses, and
we believe that should larger demands be made upon us, our treasury
Digitized by VjOOQIC
will not be found wanting. We believe, also, th^t there is a hearty
readiness on the part of the Church to respond most fully to whatever
the General Assembly will undertake in this direction.
The term of service of the following members of the Committee
will expire with this Assembly, viz. : Rev. W. O. Campbell, D. D ,
Rev. J. J Beacom, D. D., O. L. Miller, M. D., and R. S. Davis.
We recommend the re-election of Dr. Beacom and Elder O. L. Miller,
and in the place of Dr. Campbell, who declines a re-election, Rev. •
Joseph B. Turner, and in place of Mr. Davis, W. N. Zeigler.
Inasmuch as Rev. W. J. Holland, of the class of 189 1, declines to
serve longer, we recommend that Rev. Richard S. Holmes be elected
to take his place.
All of which is respectfully submitted.

A SUMMARY
Of the Action of Tlie Assembly on the Foregoing Report,
The Standing Committee on Temperance presented its report, which was accepted, and
after an address by Dr. I. N. Hays, Chairman of the Committee, was amended and adopted,
and is as follows :
'* In studying the work of the Assembly*s Permanent Committee, it gratifies us to recog-
nize that this useful agency of our Church, still continues actively at work on the lines of its
appointed effort, with a hopeful and enlarging measure of encouragement and success. The
gratuitous and self-denying labors of its officers and members during the past year are worthy
of all praise.
^'The year has been a period of incessant stir and varying conflict around the great ques-
tion of temperance, and the control or suppression of the liquor traffic. More and more deeply
the conviction has been burning itself into the public mind, that however checked by legis-
lative restrictions, or burdened by he&vier taxation, the peril of the public sale of intoxicants
is too great for any valid excuse of its existence. In regard to such an evil that affects the
whole body of our people, the issue is being steadily pressed by conscience and self-preserva-
tion, against the greed which is now absolutely the only cause for retention of the dram-shop.
'* Indeed, the saloon has well-nigh passed its period of defense. Nobody stands up for it
to-day, except as an alleged necessary evil, supposed to be so strong as to be incapable of
suppression, and which must continue, only to be curbed and prevented from venting quite
its full curse. It must be the business of the better class of our citizens, and of Christian
society at large, to prove that theory false.
" Eventually the open sale of liquor must go. Forces are now at work that, however
temporarily resisted, will yet crush the life out of it. Meanwhile, let us sow good seed
among the children. Emphasize the sinfulness of inebriety, and ply every man his neighbopQ[^
with temperance and Gospel influences. While permitting no final satisfaction with half-^
,way measures, let us help enforce existing laws that tend to fetter the liquor traffic, until
with constant agitation and unremitted effort something more and better can be done. Even
the defeat of political prohibition in some quarters lately need not be explained as the triumph
of the saloons — only the temporary non-acceptance of certain methods devised to oppose
them.
^*Let it be remembered that our Presbyterian Church itself is one great temperance society,
that practices the principles it has avowed, and constantly exerts a power that is beyond
tabulation towards the reform of inebriates and the closure of their sources of temptation."
RESOLUTIONS.
We recommend the following, yiz :
1. We stand by the deliverances hitherto issued by our Church upon
the temperance question, a summary of which has proved our Committee's
most popular tract, and we enjoin our ministers and people to abate nothing
in their zeal and effort in or out of the churches, to check the drinking
habits of society, and by effort, voice and vote, to oppose^ the traffic in in-
toxicants as a beverage, believing with intensified conviction that it is a
direct inexcusable curse to our country and our age.
2. While, as a Church, we neither advocate nor antagonize any political
party — we earnestly commend to our ministers and people, as Christian
citizens, such vigorous persevering efforts, as may seem wisest to them,
towards the enactment irj every State and Territory, of statutes which shall
hopefully secure entire prohibition, of a traffic largely responsible for the
bulk of the drunkenness, crime, pauperism and social miseries which afflict
our land.
3. We honor all executive public officers who have had the fidelity and
firmness to execute the laws in accord with their oath of office, against out-
breaks of characteristic lawlessness on the part of the liquor power.
4. We recognize with congratulation, the influence already exerted by
our Presbyterian women — forming the majority of our membership— in the
temperance cause ; and the organizations forming among them in Pennsyl-
vania and elsewhere, on the lines of our Assemblies' deliverances, to further,
in their own way, the ends aimed at by our Permanent Committee.
5. Congratulating the Permanent Committee on the encouragement that
has followed its operations for the year, we approve of its new departure in
distributing its literature gratuitously. In many cases the offer of gratuitous
transportation also might be wise. And we commend the Committee to
the Church for whatever increase of contribution to its treasury may be
needful, glad that no deficit has arisen, and that a good balance for begin-
ning the work of a new year is still in its hands.
6. That we, as an Assembly, assert our conviction that the love of God
for the sinner, as applied to the conscience by the convicting, converting
and sanctifying power of God's spirit and truth, is the inebriates* only hope
of salvation and assurance of all true reform.
7. We recommend that the Committee on Temperance be continued ;
that Rev. J. J. Beacom, D. D., and Elder O. L. Miller be relected ; that
Rev. Joseph B. Turner be chosen in place of Rev. W. O. Campbell, D. D.,
who declines to serve, and in place of Mr. R. S. Davis, Mr. W. N. Ziegler,
and since W. J. Holland, of the class of 1891, declines serving longer, we
recommend that Rev. Richard S. Holmes be elected to take his places
