Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from How England Saved China
In saying this they fail to recognize how much the England of to-day owes to the missionaries who brought Christianity to it, when it was barbarous and uncivilized. Neither have they read the history of other lands and marked how some of them have been elevated by English missionaries, and how the English ?ag is looked upon as the symbol of freedom and justice, in a large measure through the heroic services of her sons. If Africa could speak today, she would declare that the horrors of the past have been swept away through the devotion of Living stone, one oi the most distinguished of English missionaries, who gave his life for that dark continent.
That many Christian men and members of Churches should speak in the same strain is still more distressing. The command of Christ, clear.
