In Far-Away Africa

A NOTE of interest to us appears in an article in the November Missionary Review of the World. An article on “Christian Unity in British East Africa” describes a missionary convention held at Nairobi in June. One paragraph is as follows:—
“Forty-five missionaries were present, representing eight different missionary societies: The Church Missionary Society, the Africa Inland Mission, the Mennonites, the Friends’ Industrial Mission, the American Friends’ Society, the Scotch Presbyterian Mission, the Seventh-day Adventists, and the Primitive Methodists.
