Maritime Discovery and Christian Missions: Considered in Their Mutual Relations (Classic Reprint)
Excerpt from Maritime Discovery and Christian Missions: Considered in Their Mutual Relations
Missionary Enterprises Of the Rev. John Williams, a volume which has met with a measure of public favour never accorded to any publication Of a similar character. That most fascinating Narrative, - which enjoys the exalted honour of being dedicated, by permission, to the late revered sove reign Of England, - from the highest prelates and nobles in the empire down to the humblest peasants and artisans, has proved its power to captivate and charm. Invaluable from the first, for its stupendous and all but miraculous facts, it has now acquired a deep additional interest, by the melan choly issue,-should report unhappily prove well founded, Of his last benevolent attempt to extend the kingdom Of the Redeemer, and to save the souls of savage men. While sustained, from the hour Of its publication, by its own inhe rent and ever-during excellence, it was powerfully aided by the exciting presence and entrancing tongue Of its amiable and admirable author a presence, alas we fear, to be enjoyed no more, and a tongue which death has silenced for ever!
