Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Memoir of Mrs. Henrietta Shuck: The First American Female Missionary to China The compiler deems it proper to state briefly the motives which induced him to prepare the following Memoir. Shortly after the death of the late lamented Mrs. Shuck, the members of the China mission held a meeting, and, with other resolutions suitable to the occasion, unanimously adopted the following: - "Resolved - That the character and the circumstances attending the life of our departed sister are interesting and instructive, not only to us, but, if made public, are calculated to aid the cause of missions generally, and especially that in which she labored and died, and, therefore, that the Board be requested to appoint her former Pastor, the Rev. J. B. Jeter, or some other competent person, to prepare a Memoir of her life. J. Lewis Shuck, Sec." In due time, the compiler received a letter from the Corresponding Secretary of the Board, in Boston, informing him that they heartily concurred in the resolution, and desiring him to "prepare a suitable memorial of Mrs. Shuck´s worth and works." The appointment accorded with the views and wishes of her family and friends. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
