A Missionary Romance

An interesting story has been told concerning the Providence Industrial Mission at Ciradzulo, Blantyre, British Central Africa. Nineteen years ago a certain official in the district made use of an intelligent boy of the Yao tribe to take a message under difficult circumstances across country, and for this service rewarded him with a rupee. With this small sum the lad bought an English primer, and began to attend school at the mission. Later he was ordained a minister of the gospel, went on a voyage of European travel, and has since built a church which has three hundred members.— Selected.
