Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Orissa and Its Evangelization: Interspersed With Suggestions Respecting the More Efficient Conducting of Indian Missions At the farewell services connected with the author´s departure from England, he was requested, by a formal request of the audience, to present once more to the churches of Christ the claims of the Orissa Mission. This request he has now endeavored to meet. The opportunities afforded him for accomplishing his task have been by no means of the most favorable kind. A few days, during his voyage to America - a few hours, during his almost daily journeys and preachings, with now and then a brief interval, which would otherwise have been devoted to relaxation, or the sweets of friendly intercourse with those from whom he expects soon to be separated for ever, are all the leisure he has been able to command. The subject-matter of the book has, however, been daily on his mind; what he has craved, has been time for a more lucid arrangement of his facts, and for attempting to clothe his ideas in their more appropriate garb. But in this, as in most other cases, he must be content to be a practical man, leaving it for those who enjoy the sweets of literary leisure, to charm by the graces of their style and entrance by the music of their sentences. The writer has not attempted a regular account of the daily detail of missionary labor. This, for the first twelve years of the Mission, he has already given in the Narrative of the Orissa Mission, published in 1833.
