Malagasy Christians During the French Invasion

The conduct of the Malagasy Christians during the trying times of the French invasion and attempted subjugation has been beyond all praise. The Rev. T. T. Matthews, of the London Society, says that "anything more creditable to the spirit of true Christianity than the conduct of the Hovas toward the French subjects has been seldom seen." The church at Ambatonakanga, with which Mr. Matthews is connected, has improved the past year in nearly every aspect. For the support of the gospel it raised $100 more than in the previous year, and has agreed to help support five evangelists.
