XLIII.<br /> + NOVEMBER, 1889.<br /> + No. 11. + </center> + <h2 style="font-variant: small-caps;">American Missionary Association.</h2> +<hr /> + + +<h3>FREE ONCE MORE.</h3> + +<p>At the close of our fiscal year in 1887, we were enabled to utter the joyful +word "Free," no <i>debt</i> darkening our balance sheet. Last year (1888) +we were compelled to moderate our tone and say "Not quite free," for a +balance of $5,641.21 stood on the wrong side of our ledger. But now, in +the good providence of God, we can say "Free once more."</p> + +<p>Our receipts from all sources were $376,216.88; payments, including +debt of last year, $371,745.21, leaving a credit balance of $4,471.67. For +this good result we are in some measure indebted to legacies. But, under +all circumstances, we rejoice in the past and look forward with hope to +the future. The work we have in hand, with its grand results, as will be +seen in the "General Survey" published in this number of the MISSIONARY, +will encourage our friends, and the call there made for growth and enlargement, +will, we are sure, stimulate them to increased contributions and more +earnest prayer. The "Survey" will also contain a statement of the income +and expenditure of the Hand Fund.</p> + +<hr /> + +<h3>THE NATIONAL COUNCIL.</h3> + +<p>The gathering of this representative body of the Congregational +churches of this country was the largest ever held. It grappled more +fully than any of its predecessors had done with great questions touching the +missionary and benevolent societies in their relations to the churches and to +each other, and the consolidation of the missionary magazines. The most +exciting topic discussed was that of the Georgia Congregational Churches, +white and colored. The result reached on this point was that the representatives +of two District Conferences were enrolled, and that the representative +of the United Congregational Conference of Georgia was given a seat +as an honorary member.</p> + +<hr /> +<a name="page302" id="page302"></a><span class="newpage">[pg 302]</span> + + +<h3>THE COLORED DELEGATES.</h3> + +<p>The Southern Associations were represented by six colored delegates in +the National Council. Their bearing and ability won the respect and admiration +of the whole Council. They were modest and manly in their deportment, +prudent in their counsels and very eloquent in their speech. +They showed themselves to be the peers of their white brethren, and demonstrated +beyond a question the capacity of the colored man for the highest +intellectual and moral training. They were a credit to the American Missionary +Association, whose pupils they have been, and were a living and +triumphant vindication of its work at the South.</p> + +<hr /> + +<h3>THE MOHONK CONFERENCE.</h3> + +<p>The seventh annual gathering of this Conference, Oct. 2-5, was the +largest ever assembled. Among those present for the first time were Ex-President +Hayes, Gen. O.O. Howard, Gen. John Eaton, Prof. Wayland +and Dr. Wayland. The newspaper press, religious and secular, was very +fully represented; Abbott, Buckley, Dunning, Gilbert, Ward and Wayland +are perhaps best known. The venerable Judge Strong well represented the +law, while the absence of Senator Dawes was sincerely regretted.</p> + +<p>A marked feature of the Conference was the presence of Gen. Morgan, +Commissioner of Indian Affairs. For weeks prior to the meeting of the +Conference, rumors had gone abroad that he intended to abolish the "contract +schools"—that is, schools of the missionary societies which the Government +by a "contract" agrees to assist. Articles had appeared in the newspapers +remonstrating against this course, and it was believed that this topic +would be one of most practical interest in the Conference. The Commissioner +early in the meetings read a paper outlining his plan for the establishment +of Government schools for all Indian children—the attendance to be +compulsory. The omission of all mention of the "contract schools" in +this paper confirmed the impression to which rumor had given currency. +An animated discussion followed the reading of his paper, in which the +Commissioner freely participated. It appeared that he had been misunderstood—at +least in so far as any immediate curtailment of the "contract +schools" is concerned, and he impressed the Conference warmly in his favor +as a Christian man with broad views, impartial and progressive. He will +meet, we feel sure, with the cordial support of all the societies engaged in +Indian educational work.</p> + +<p>The final action of the Conference was embodied in a platform substantially +repeating the utterances of last year, urging national education for +all Indian children and approving the continuance of "contract schools." +Other planks of the platform related to lands in severalty, to the legal rights +of the Indians, etc.—all of which were unanimously approved, and thus +<a name="page303" id="page303"></a><span class="newpage">[pg 303]</span> +once more this remarkable Conference followed its predecessors in free and +frank debate, consummated by entire harmony in the result.</p> + +<p>The varied and unique scenery of Lake Mohonk was shown at its best +by three days of bright and bracing weather. The welcome of Mr. and +Mrs. Smiley to their increased number of guests, who taxed to the utmost +limits the accommodations of the large establishment, was as cordial and +genial as ever. The hearty and enthusiastic vote of thanks, the only compensation +permitted, was a far less reward than the gratification of their own +benevolent feelings in doing good; and that gratification is probably to be +enhanced by the calling together of another Conference in the early summer +in behalf of a still larger class of our needy fellow-citizens than the Indians.</p> + +<hr /> + +<h3>NOTES FROM NEW ENGLAND.</h3> + +<p>A good friend of the American Missionary Association in a New England +village recently greatly stirred up the interest of the people in behalf +of our work, through a missionary society which she organized among the +children. They had meetings for sewing, preparing articles for a box, and +then a fair, in which they sold other articles that they had made, out of +which they gathered a considerable sum of money. The interest went far +beyond the children. A gentleman, not a member of the church, who +had never been interested in missionary work, was stirred up by the solicitation +of the children, and gave both time and money to their effort. He +afterwards said to a good lady who inaugurated the movement, "I am glad +I have given to this cause; it makes me feel good, and I want to keep right +on giving." That is the way it affects every one when the heart and pocket-book +are open to these missionary objects. It makes them feel good, and +stirs up a desire to continue the process.</p> + +<hr class="short" /> + +<p>The Christian Endeavor Societies of New England are assisting nobly +in the work of the American Missionary Association. One society pledges +itself to support a missionary in our field for a year. Another makes one of +its number a Life Member of our Association, contributing thirty dollars. +Still another brings in a handsome collection recently taken, and still another +devotes the prayer meeting evening to thorough study upon the work that +is being done through the A.M.A., in the needy and destitute portions of +our country. One young man who spoke at the last meeting spent a portion +of his vacation in studying up the work among the Highlanders of the +South, and gave the results of his study at their meeting. And why should +not this active society of earnest young people be interested in the great +work that is being accomplished among other young people, painfully in +want of the advantages which those here enjoy? A prayer meeting pledge +of the Y.P.S.C.E., printed in the Sioux language by Indian boys at a +<a name="page304" id="page304"></a><span class="newpage">[pg 304]</span> +Santee school, is a most interesting evidence that this society is not confined +in its usefulness to any locality or race. A vigorous Society is one of +the elements of work in this Indian school, and a most useful element. In +a letter written by an Indian boy is the following: "We have a Christian +Endeavor Society here. I joined that society not very long ago, and we +have nice meetings on Saturday night. It does make me feel good in those +meetings. There are about thirty members now." And so these Societies +of New England in their prayers for, and contributions to, the work of the +American Missionary Association, are clasping hands with the same societies +among the Negroes, Mountain people and Indians.</p> + +<p>The "King's Daughters" are also a useful agency in the field work of +our Association. A little Indian girl writes interestingly of the "King's +Daughters" of whom she is one.</p> + +<hr /> + +<h3>DEATH OF SUPERINTENDENT HALL.</h3> + +<p>Just as we are going to press, (October 18th), we are startled by the +telegraphic announcement of the sudden death from typhoid fever of Prof. +Edward S. Hall, one of our Field Superintendents. Mr. Hall had been one +year in the service of the Association, and had already shown himself to be +a man of varied and remarkable capabilities—not only skilled in the management +of schools, but familiar in an unusual degree with the practical +work of building and repairing school and church edifices. His services +have been invaluable to the Association, and it will be difficult to supply +his place. As a man of noble Christian character and consecration to +the work entrusted to him, he had won our highest esteem.</p> + +<hr /> + +<h3>DEATH OF LARMON B. LANE, M.D.</h3> + +<p>Rev. Larmon B. Lane, M.D., died at his home in St. Charles, Ill., Sept. +15, 1889. He was born in Tallmadge, Ohio, June 21, 1821. He studied +medicine at Cleveland Medical College, and afterward attended Oberlin +College and Theological Seminary, graduating in 1848. The following year +he was sent by the American Missionary Association as missionary physician +to Siam, where he labored faithfully, ministering to soul and body six +years. In 1855 a severe hemorrhage compelled him to give up the missionary +work. After a short rest he began his work of preaching the gospel. +He had successful pastorates in Illinois and Ohio; afterwards he practiced +medicine in Geneva and St. Charles, Ill., at which latter place he died. +He was successful as a physician and continued to the end a loyal servant +of Christ, was deacon, treasurer and Sunday-school Superintendent, besides +being always ready to do with his might what his hands found to do.</p> + +<p>S.</p> + +<hr /> +<a name="page305" id="page305"></a><span class="newpage">[pg 305]</span> + + +<h2>FORTY-THIRD ANNUAL REPORT</h2> + +<h4>OF THE</h4> + +<h2>EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE,</h2> + +<h3><span class="sc">For The Year Ending September 30th, 1889.</span></h3> + +<hr /> + +<h3>GENERAL SURVEY.</h3> + +<hr class="short" /> + +<p>The American Missionary Association finds its commission in the +words of the Master, "Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to +every creature."</p> + +<p>It does not choose its fields of labor because the people in them are +black, or red, or yellow, or white; but because they are those for whom +Christ died and to whom he commanded the glad tidings of salvation to be +preached. In the fields to which it providentially has been called, it seeks +to bring the gospel to every human being who has it not in its purity as an +uplifting power.</p> + +<p>In nineteen States and Territories we are laboring—six in the West and +thirteen in the South. In ninety-four schools and one hundred and forty-two +churches we have been directly teaching and preaching the gospel during +the past year. In them have 456 missionaries wrought with holy purpose. +12,132 pupils have been taught in our schools; more than seventeen +thousand have received instruction in Bible truth in our Sunday-schools; +782 conversions have been reported. $3,160.14 have been reported as +given in our mission churches for benevolence, and $21,658.57 for their own +expenses—again over last year of $660.03 in benevolence and $2,322.62 +in church expenses. Besides all this and all that in various ways has failed +to be reported to us, have been the vacation work of our students, the large +work of our previous graduates, the indirect results of many kinds, and the +unknown results and influences of great power and far-reaching importance +which have gone forth from our institutions and missionaries whose only +possible record is in God's Book of Remembrance.</p> + +<hr /> + + +<h3>THE SOUTH.</h3> + +<p>In the South, we are directly reaching three classes—the colored people, +the mountain whites, and the new settlers from the North and from the old +countries. Indirectly we are reaching many more. The schools we plant +often incite others to plant schools; the houses of worship we aid in erecting +cause others to be erected. A single neat, but inexpensive building +for a country church of colored people has been known to occasion the +building or repairing of at least nine church buildings of neighboring +white people. The incontestably good results of our work among the +colored people are slowly but surely undermining race prejudice. In spite +<a name="page306" id="page306"></a><span class="newpage">[pg 306]</span>of +all the race trouble during the past year and the increasingly bitter +utterances of some papers and some public speakers, during no other year +in the history of our country have so many manly words in favor of the +Negro been printed in Southern papers, and sounded from the pulpits and +platforms of the South. It was in a Southern University and before a +Southern audience that a Southern man, a Bishop of a Southern church +which took the name Southern when it declared for slavery, this year uttered +these words:</p> + +<blockquote><p> +"It is a travesty on religion, this disposition to canonize missionaries +who go to the Dark Continent, while we have nothing but social ostracism +for the white teacher who is doing a work no less noble at home. The solution +to the race problem rests with the white people who live among the +blacks, and who are willing to become their teachers in a missionary +spirit." +</p></blockquote> + +<p>Cruel and unreasoning is prejudice, but when the public platforms, and +especially the pulpits, begin to yield in their utterances to the sway of +logic and humanity, by and by public opinion will feel their force. Our institutions +and our missionaries have compelled the respect of the Southern +people. This year many expressions of it have been heard.</p> + +<hr /> + + +<h3><i>EDUCATIONAL WORK.</i></h3> + +<h4>CHARTERED INSTITUTIONS.</h4> + +<p>During the past year we have directly sustained five chartered institutions +in the South—Fisk University, Talladega College, Tougaloo University, +Straight University and Tillotson Institute. Every year that passes +emphasizes anew that these are most wisely located, so that each is a center +of far-reaching power, and supplements the work of all the others.</p> + +<p>Fisk University at Nashville, Tenn., with its 503 students, has had a year +of great prosperity, and solid, telling work. Its buildings have been full, +the quality of the work done has been excellent. A graduate of Fisk +recently took his diploma from an Eastern school of medicine, with a rank +two per cent. higher than any other man in his class. Another graduate +of Fisk is a missionary in Africa under the American Board, and is not only +declared by the Secretaries to be one of its best missionaries, but has shown +such business capacity that he has been chosen treasurer of his mission. +His wife, a worthy helpmeet, is also a graduate of this institution. Fisk +has high ideals—few institutions in the South have higher ones, or come +nearer reaching them.</p> + +<p>Talladega College, in Talladega, Ala., has had 427 students in all departments. +Its year's work has shown most satisfactory results. Talladega +is closely connected with the church work of the State. All the pastors +in the Congregational State Association but four are from its theological +department and several other States have found pastors there. The last +<a name="page307" id="page307"></a><span class="newpage">[pg 307]</span> +State Association, with its fine body of young men, educated, dignified +and earnest, was a most emphatic demonstration of the good work done in +this institution. The students of Talladega have carried forward during +the past year, under direction of a member of the Faculty, a systematic +mission work in the surrounding neighborhoods, which has yielded large results, +both in the good done in the neighborhoods and in the training received +by the workers for future usefulness.</p> + +<p>Tougaloo University has been filled to overflowing with 343 students, +and after the last inch of room had been filled, scores had to be turned +away. This school is situated almost in the center of the State, and +reaches a far larger region not limited by State lines. It is near the border +of the Yazoo country, which has begun to be so wondrously developed, +and is so rapidly filling with colored people. The evangelization and +enlightenment of this new Africa must largely come through Tougaloo. +Here must be trained preachers, teachers and other leaders of character +for this new region, as well as for the older portions of the State. Good, +solid work has been done here all through the year, and preparation has +been made for even better results in the future.</p> + +<p>Straight University, in New Orleans, La., is peculiarly situated for an +important and far-reaching work. It draws its students not only from the +States, but also from Mexico and the West Indies—484 last year. With +the enlarged accommodations for the primary and intermediate work which +have been planned, this institution will be better prepared to meet the demands +of higher education.</p> + +<p>Tillotson Institute, at Austin, Texas, the youngest of our chartered institutions, +has had a prosperous year with 230 students, in the Primary, +Intermediate, Grammar, Normal, College Preparatory and College departments. +Situated at the capital of the great empire of Texas, it is destined +to be an educational, religious and evangelistic centre, a power for the +building up of the kingdom of Christ. It greatly needs enlarged accommodations. +Where is the Lord's steward who is ready to give it at once +the imperatively needed Girls' Hall?</p> + + +<h4>NORMAL AND GRADED SCHOOLS.</h4> + +<p>Next to our chartered institutions come our normal schools. These +have the same course of study up to the college department as the chartered +institutions have. These normal schools are eighteen in number, +and are situated at Lexington and Williamsburg, Ky.; Memphis, Jonesboro, +Grand View and Pleasant Hill, Tenn.; Wilmington and Beaufort, N.C.; +Charleston and Greenwood, S.C.; Atlanta, Macon, Savannah, Thomasville +and McIntosh, Ga.; Athens, Mobile and Marion, Ala. Adding to +these the normal departments of our five chartered institutions, gives us +twenty-three normal schools in the South.</p> + +<p>Besides these, we have in the South thirty-seven which we class as +<a name="page308" id="page308"></a><span class="newpage">[pg 308]</span> +common schools. Eight of these are graded, with two or three teachers +each. Nearly all are parochial schools. The teachers are in both the day +schools and the Sunday-schools, and are not only school teachers, but +church missionaries. They train the young of our congregations for +greater usefulness, encourage many of the most promising to go to higher +institutions, teach the parents better ideas of home life, and lead all ages +to a more intelligent and spiritual worship.</p> + + +<h4>INDUSTRIAL WORK.</h4> + +<p>Nearly all our schools—chartered, normal and even common—give +some industrial training.</p> + +<p>At Fisk, the young men are taught wood-working and printing; the +young women, nursing, cooking, dress-making and house-keeping.</p> + +<p>At Talladega, the young men learn farming, carpentry, painting, glazing, +tinning, blacksmithing and printing; the young women, cooking, +house-keeping, plain sewing and other needle-work.</p> + +<p>At Tougaloo, the young men learn farming, carpentry, blacksmithing, +wheelwrighting, painting, turning and tinning; the young women, sewing, +dressmaking, cooking and housekeeping.</p> + +<p>At Straight, the young men receive instruction in printing, carpentry, +and floriculture; the young women, needlework, cooking and housekeeping.</p> + +<p>At Tillotson, carpentry is taught the young men; needlework, cooking +and housekeeping, the young women.</p> + +<p>Our normal schools at Memphis, Tenn., Macon, Ga., and Williamsburg, +Ky., have carpentry, printing, and other industrial training for the young +men, and training in the various arts of home life for the young women.</p> + +<p>At Wilmington, Charleston, Savannah, Macon, Thomasville, Athens, Ala., +Marion, Mobile, Pleasant Hill, Sherwood, and other normal, graded and +common schools, the young women are trained in the things which they +will most need in making comfortable and pleasant homes. Indeed, we +make it our special care that the girls shall everywhere in our work be +taught these things, so essential to the uplifting of a people. In many +places where we have no schools, the pastor's wife, or our special lady missionary, +is doing this same kind of work.</p> + + +<h4>THEOLOGICAL SCHOOLS.</h4> + +<p>At Fisk, Talladega, Tougaloo and Straight, there have been during the +year theological classes. The Theological Department of Howard University, +at Washington, has been supported by this Association. Even in +some of our normal schools Biblical instruction has been given to some +who are now preachers and some who intend to preach. But the number +trained has not been sufficient to supply our pastorless churches. The +need of a general theological seminary for our churches in the South is +becoming imperative. The extensive enlargement of our church work, +<a name="page309" id="page309"></a><span class="newpage">[pg 309]</span> +which ought to begin at once, can scarcely be made successful without this. +Who is the one to seize this opportunity to establish an institution of +untold possibilities in advancing the Kingdom of Christ on earth—a place +where ministers shall be prepared for the work in the South and for foreign +missions in Africa?</p> + + +<h4>STATISTICS OF EDUCATIONAL WORK IN THE SOUTH.</h4> + +<table summary="Educational work" width="40%" align="center"> +<tr><td>Total number of Schools </td><td align="right">60</td></tr> +<tr><td>Total number of Instructors </td><td align="right">260</td></tr> +<tr><td>Total number of Pupils </td><td align="right">10,094</td></tr> +<tr><td>Theological Students </td><td align="right">82</td></tr> +<tr><td>Law Students </td><td align="right">10</td></tr> +<tr><td>College Students </td><td align="right">51</td></tr> +<tr><td>College Preparatory Students </td><td align="right">103</td></tr> +<tr><td>Normal Students </td><td align="right">784</td></tr> +<tr><td>Grammar Grades </td><td align="right">2,127</td></tr> +<tr><td>Intermediate Grades </td><td align="right">3,181</td></tr> +<tr><td>Primary Grades </td><td align="right">3,773</td></tr> +<tr><td>In two grades </td><td align="right">17</td></tr> +</table> + + +<h3><i>CHURCH WORK IN THE SOUTH.</i></h3> + +<p>Our church work has necessarily been of slow growth. Churches +might have been multiplied, had we thought it best to lower the standard +near the level of the old churches, and acknowledge wild ravings as belonging +in the worship of God. We have believed that our churches should +mean new ideas and intelligent worship. We have knowingly lent our aid +to nothing else.</p> + +<p>These churches are gathered into Associations, and the fine bodies of +pastors and delegates which come together in these, present a most emphatic +testimony to the value of the work done in the past, and are an +earnest of what the future will show.</p> + +<p>Revivals—some of them of great power—have been reported to us +from the Plymouth Church, Washington, D.C., Fisk University, Memphis, +Jonesboro, Sherwood, Glen Mary, Oakdale, Athens and Pine Mountain, +Tenn.; Montgomery and Florence, Ala.; Tougaloo and Jackson, Miss.; +Straight University, New Orleans, and Corpus Christi, Texas. Many others +of our churches have had a quiet work of grace, by which additions have +been made to them.</p> + +<p>We report new churches at Glen Mary and Athens, Tenn.; Roseland, +La; Fort Payne and Alco, Ala. This makes the whole number of our +churches in the South 136.</p> + +<p>Besides these churches, there are our churches among the Indians and +the work of gathering the Chinese into churches in California.</p> + +<p>We are praying and laboring for the eternal salvation of millions, the establishment +through the grace of God, the atoning blood of Christ, and the +<a name="page310" id="page310"></a><span class="newpage">[pg 310]</span> +work of the Holy Spirit, of character which shall meet the tests of the Judgment +Day and the needs of eternal association with purity. In aiming at this +ultimate result, our missionaries are doing a work of inestimable importance +for the nation and the world. They are successfully working upon some +of the great problems of this country, which armies and millions of money +have failed, and of necessity must fail, to solve. Nothing but the "glorious +gospel of the blessed God," taught from the pulpit and the teacher's +desk, and illustrated in the eloquent lives of consecrated missionaries, can +change the idol worshiper from heathen China, the wild-man of the West, +the half-heathen Negro so recently in the cruel degradation of slavery, those +of our own race in the bonds of ignorance and immorality—so that they +shall have and manifest an intelligent and worthy manhood and womanhood. +Nothing else can meet cruel prejudice, which would forever deny +full manhood or womanhood to those called to it by God himself, and +pour oil upon its angry waves until they shall be still.</p> + +<p>Our plan of work in the South is often misunderstood and often misrepresented. +It is not our plan to force the races together. It is not our +plan to agitate questions which arouse the prejudices of the Southern people. +We do not agitate. Quietly, steadily, patiently, lovingly, our missionaries +seek to lift up the degraded, enlighten the ignorant, and bring them +all to Christ, well knowing that bitter prejudice cannot forever stand opposed +to an enlightened, cultivated, Christian people, whatever may be +their color or their past condition. We have nothing to do with the question +of social equality in the South any more than we have in the North. +We are not even trying to force the races together in the churches. We +have no principles which would prevent our aiding two churches in the +same town—one with a membership of white, the other of colored people. +We have done it. In our church work, we simply maintain that a Christian +church should stand ready to fellowship any one whom Christ fellowships, that +it should turn no one away because of his color, or because he, his father or +his mother was a slave. We maintain that there is no Christian reason +why there should be either State or local organizations of churches which +will not fellowship churches whose memberships differ in race. We seek +to establish churches and other institutions which dare interpret Christianity +as Christ taught it, and which will not yield a Christian principle for +enlarged statistics. There are caste churches enough in the South. No +more are needed. If Congregationalism can go there true to its history, +true to its real convictions, true to that gospel which successfully faced the +bitter prejudices of Jew and Gentile with the broad invitation, "Whosoever +will, may come," then it goes to become a mighty power and to win both a +place for itself and other churches, in time, to accept the same broad interpretation +of Christianity.</p> + +<p>This Association has faith in the power of the gospel, and, under the +reign of God, of the final triumph of the right. It is willing to enter the +<a name="page311" id="page311"></a><span class="newpage">[pg 311]</span> +doors now so wide open for missionary work, and to wait, if need be, for +that glory of the denomination, which is better than long tables of statistics, +the glory of adhering to the right.</p> + +<p>The time has now come when our church work can be greatly enlarged. +Our schools have been doing their work, and scattering all through the +South those who have learned what pure religion and spiritual worship +mean, and they are ready and longing for something better than they find +within their reach. We can now push our work as fast as the churches of +the North will furnish the money. We most earnestly appeal for the means +to enable us to greatly develop, during the coming year, this department of +the work.</p> + + +<h4>CHURCH WORK AMONG NEW SETTLERS IN THE SOUTH.</h4> + +<p>Wonderful and more wonderful tales are now reaching the world of the +unlimited resources of the South. They are a new discovery even to the +South itself. These stories of lumber and mineral wealth are turning the +tide thitherward. Towns and cities are beginning to spring up as they +have in the West, and both great need and rich opportunity call for immediate +missionary work. This new population is mostly, as yet, from the +North, though many from Wales, especially miners, and from other countries +of the old world are beginning to come in. In the new towns they find no +churches, in the old towns few whose ideas and customs can satisfy their +minds and hearts. Here is a great opportunity. We can aid these people +to establish churches which will emphasize that interpretation of the +Gospel which we believe to be Christian.</p> + +<p>In Florida, Louisiana, Alabama and Tennessee we have already aided +in establishing such churches which have connected themselves—and +gladly so—with the regular State organizations of Congregational churches. +No direful results have followed. No fanaticism is in it. It is simply +doing the thing that is right and Christian. May such churches continue +to multiply in the "New South" and help to make it <i>new</i> indeed.</p> + + +<h4>STATISTICS OF CHURCH WORK IN THE SOUTH.</h4> + +<table summary="Church Work" width="40%" align="center"> +<tr><td>Number of Churches </td><td align="right">136</td></tr> +<tr><td>Number of Missionaries </td><td align="right">113</td></tr> +<tr><td>Number of Church Members </td><td align="right">8,438</td></tr> +<tr><td>Added during the year </td><td align="right">989</td></tr> +<tr><td>Added by profession of faith </td><td align="right">734</td></tr> +<tr><td>Scholars in Sunday-school </td><td align="right">14,735</td></tr> +</table> + + +<h3><i>THE MOUNTAIN WORK.</i></h3> + +<p>Notwithstanding all the interest that has been manifested in our mountain +work, we feel sure that the churches do not realize the magnitude of +this field, the pressing needs of this people in the heart of our country, the +wonderful opportunities before us, and the heart-stirring results already +secured.</p> + +<p><a name="page312" id="page312"></a><span class="newpage">[pg 312]</span> +Large portions of seven States—three or four hundred counties—with +a population of between two and three millions, claim our attention and +call for our work. Here is a country of untold natural resources. Here +is a people of good blood. Men of power have come from among them, +and shown of what they are capable. Side by side with the Northern soldiers +these mountaineers fought for the Union, or suffered in prisons rather +than fight against it. Where our schools and churches have been established, +men and women of worth and ability have stepped out and become +strong helpers in building up new institutions. But away from these institutions +and out of touch with the life of the towns, we find a class of people +whose condition in itself is a Macedonian cry. Their windowless, +stoveless, comfortless log cabins; their so-called schools, in which on the +roughest benches conceivable, and without a desk, a slate, or a blackboard, +with a teacher with unkempt hair, ragged and dirty clothes, possibly +bare feet, who perhaps can scarcely read, the children study at the +top of their voices—<i>blab</i> schools they call them—have for their course of +study the spelling book alone, and are taught that a word is correctly spelled +when all the letters are named, no matter in what order; their so-called +churches, with perhaps a monthly meeting during the summer months, without +Sunday-school, prayer meeting, or any form of church work, without +morality as a requisite of church membership, with an illiterate ministry—a +large number of the ministers cannot read even, and what is worse in many +cases are drunken, impure, and in every way immoral; their children so +easily gathered into day-schools and Sunday-schools, and so responsive to the +work done for them—all these things appeal to us with pathetic power. +Perhaps no missionary work ever showed greater results in so short a time +than those obtained in these mountains.</p> + +<p>We have here in two States eleven schools and twenty-two churches. +Earnest calls have come to us to begin work in North Carolina and Alabama. +We feel sure that if the churches could hear these appeals they would bid us +respond. We have promised to begin work the coming year in these States, +and we must look to the churches to furnish us the means. New lumbering +and mining towns are springing up in this mountain country, and immediate +missionary work is their only hope. A single one of these new towns, scarcely +half-a-dozen years old, has had already more than a hundred men shot in it, +and this awful work still goes on. This marvelously rich mineral region is sure +to be filled in the near future with these mining towns, and unless the Christian +work keeps pace with this kind of growth, this large territory will +become notorious for bloody scenes as no portion of our land has ever +been. Now is the time to preempt the country for Christ, by planting at +strategic points the church and the Christian school, and through them to +send forth to every part the pure, restraining and elevating influences of +the gospel. God's call to us to do this work is loud and clear. Can we be +faithful to Him and refuse to obey?</p> + +<hr /> +<a name="page313" id="page313"></a><span class="newpage">[pg 313]</span> + + +<h3>THE INDIANS.</h3> + +<p>There are 260,000 Indians in this country. Compared with our great +fields in the South, this is small. But there is an emphasis on this work +which is not made by figures. Those who were native to this land have +been made foreigners. Those who were the first to receive missionary +work here, and who responded as readily as any heathen people ever did, +are still largely pagans. While one Christian has been telling the Indians +the story of the gospel, another calling himself a Christian has been shooting +them. They have not yet had a full chance to learn what Christianity +is. From place to place they have been pushed so that they have not had +time to build their altars to the true God. We have wronged them and we +owe them more than we shall pay. We shall meet our obligations but in +part, when we do all we can to save them.</p> + +<p>We have in bur Indian work eighteen schools and six churches, one +new church having been added this year. In these, 68 missionaries have +been doing noble service for the Indian and for the country. Shall the +Indian problem forever perplex and shame both the country and the +Church? Will not the churches enable us to send all the workers and do +all the work needed to be done, and thus hasten the day when it can be +joyfully proclaimed that the Indians are evangelized—no longer pagans +and foreigners, but our fellow Christians and our fellow citizens?</p> + + +<h4>STATISTICS OF INDIAN WORK.</h4> + +<table summary="Indian Work" width="40%" align="center"> +<tr><td>Churches </td><td align="right">6</td></tr> +<tr><td>Church Members </td><td align="right">401</td></tr> +<tr><td>Schools </td><td align="right">18</td></tr> +<tr><td>Missionaries and Teachers </td><td align="right">68</td></tr> +<tr><td>Theological Students </td><td align="right">24</td></tr> +<tr><td>Normal Students </td><td align="right">11</td></tr> +<tr><td>Grammar Grades </td><td align="right">32</td></tr> +<tr><td>Intermediate Grades </td><td align="right">120</td></tr> +<tr><td>Primary </td><td align="right">495</td></tr> +<tr><td>Total Pupils </td><td align="right">658</td></tr> +<tr><td>Sunday-school Scholars </td><td align="right">1,332</td></tr> +</table> + +<hr /> + +<h3>THE CHINESE.</h3> + +<p>At our Annual Meeting in 1887 we were urged to bring the attention of +the churches to this their phenomenal opportunity and duty, to give the +gospel at short range and nominal cost to Asia's millions, and to support +their hopeful and fruitful mission with all possible sympathy and aid. +Again, in 1888, the need of immediate and great re-enforcement and +enlargement was urged upon us.</p> + +<p>Sixteen missions have been in operation during the year, and in them +thirty-five workers, ten of them Chinese, have been employed. 1,380 have +<a name="page314" id="page314"></a><span class="newpage">[pg 314]</span> +been enrolled as pupils in our schools—249 more than last year. 40 have +this year come out of heathenism into Christianity, and the whole number +who have confessed Christ in these missions and have been received as true +converts is above 750.

At Williamsburg, +Ky., thirteen acres of land have been secured for the enlargement of our +very successful school there and the large industrial building moved upon it. +$2,300 of the expense for this was paid by our generous friend, Mr. Stephen +Ballard, of Brooklyn, N.Y. The increasing number of boarders at this institution +has made necessary a new and larger dining room and kitchen, +which have been built.</p> + +<p>At Nashville, Tenn., a commodious two-story building of modern +architecture, with rooms for physical culture and industrial training, has +been erected.</p> + +<p>At Memphis, Tenn., the Le Moyne school building, which in the winter +was partially destroyed by fire, has been restored by the insurance.</p> + +<p>At Knoxville, Tenn., the old church building, which was unfit for use, +has been built over and a parsonage added, making a neat and convenient +place of worship, and a home for the minister.</p> + +<p>At Jellico, Tenn., the building used for church and school purposes has +been considerably enlarged to meet the wants of a large Sunday-school and +congregation.</p> + +<p>At Grand View, Tenn., a new building has been put up for school and +dormitory purposes.</p> + +<p>At Pleasant Hill, Tenn., a large three-story Girls' Hall is in process of +construction to enable the mountain girls to take advantage of this successful +normal school.</p> + +<p>At Pine Mountain, Tenn., the church building has been completed and +furnished for school as well as church purposes and a teachers' home has +been built.</p> + +<p>At Beaufort, N.C., the large old school building known as Washburn +Seminary, has been placed in the hands of the Association and refitted and +a new normal school started in it. The church building, also, has received +many greatly needed repairs.</p> + +<p>At Chapel Hill, N.C., a brick church building, formerly belonging to +the Southern Methodists, has been purchased for a school, and will be used +also for church services.</p> + +<p>At Macon, Ga., the Ballard School building has been completed and +<a name="page315" id="page315"></a><span class="newpage">[pg 315]</span> +furnished at a cost of $14,000, and a Girls' Hall erected at a cost of +$7,500—two more generous gifts of Mr. Stephen Ballard, of Brooklyn.</p> + +<p>At Savannah, Ga., extensive repairs have been made on the Beach Institute +building.</p> + +<p>At Thomasville, Ga., the school facilities have been increased by moving +a school building in the town, to the Connecticut Industrial School.</p> + +<p>At McIntosh, Ga., land and buildings have been bought for the enlargement +of this historic, successful and intensely interesting school.</p> + +<p>At Woodville, Ga., the church and school building which had been +nearly wrecked, first by the Charleston earthquake and then by a cyclone, +has been made solid and comfortable.</p> + +<p>At Byron, Ga., land has been bought and preparations have been made +for a church building.</p> + +<p>At Fairbanks, Fla., a school building and lot worth $2,500 have been +given to us by Mrs. Merrill, of Bangor, Me., on condition that we maintain +a school there.</p> + +<p>At Marion, Ala., we have refitted a large dwelling for a greatly needed +school building.</p> + +<p>At New Decatur, Ala., a new church building is about completed.</p> + +<p>At Tougaloo, Miss., the large Girls' Hall, owing to the peculiarities of +the soil—alluvium, 300 feet deep—unknown when it was built, had been +crushing its foundations into the ground until it was on the point of falling. +Our own missionary and student force lifted it up, put under it new foundations +and repaired it in every part.

Through it pass the sympathy and the help of the +earnest workers in the older churches to the earnest workers in our mission +churches and schools. The people for whom we labor cannot be saved +either for this world or the next, unless the women who make the homes are +lifted out of coarseness and vice, and taught true womanhood and womanly +duties and arts.

The income only +of this Fund is to be used. The amount received as income from this +Fund for the nine months to September 30, is $36,999.71. This amount is +not included in the current receipts stated above, but is a Special Fund and +has been appropriated under the terms and conditions of the Trust. From +this income we have not only aided more than three hundred students who +otherwise would not have had the privilege of attending any school, but have +also greatly enlarged our school accommodations at Chapel Hill and Beaufort, +N.C., Phoenix, S.C., Thomasville and McIntosh, Ga., Selma, Ala., +and New Orleans, La. Another year will afford opportunities to a much +greater number of pupils, and will still further enlarge our school facilities +<a name="page317" id="page317"></a><span class="newpage">[pg 317]</span> +in the special lines of work contemplated by this gift. It was a noble gift +from a noble man and it will do a noble work.</p> + +<p>The overwhelming majority of the Southern Negroes are still found in +the rural districts, where schools are few and far apart.

The work attempted and done is +great, the work unattempted and not done is far greater. Should every +church and individual in the land double last year's contribution this year, +we would be compelled still to leave greatly needed work undone. In view +of boundless opportunities, we can ask no less of the churches than that +which the recent National Council at Worcester recommended—five hundred +thousand dollars ($500,000) for the work of the coming year. +Brethren, with more prayer, more consecration and more self-denial let us +take up together this vast work and these difficult problems which God has +set before us.</p> + +<hr /> +<a name="page318" id="page318"></a><span class="newpage">[pg 318]</span> + + +<h2>THE CHINESE.</h2> + +<hr class="short" /> + + +<h3>REVIEW OF THE YEAR.</h3> + +<h5>BY REV. WM. C. POND, D.D.</h5> + +<p>Our fiscal year ended August 31st. To a stranger looking on as I close +its accounts, there might be nothing visible but an array of figures "dry as +dust." But if that on-looker could count the heart-beats, as I draw near +to making up the balance, could watch the rising tide of feeling, could hear +the out-burst of thanksgiving sounding through the chambers of the soul, +and now and again breaking the silence of my study with the cry:—"What +shall I render unto the Lord for all his benefits," he would realise that there +was something in those figures not so very dry. <i>All bills paid</i>, and even a +balance much larger than usual left to help out the too scant resources of +the new year! I find myself saying again and again: "How can this be?" +It looked so dark four months ago; it looks so bright to-day. God has +answered prayer, has been true to his promise, has changed to blessing the +stress that we were under by placing thus upon our work the seal of his +own and his people's approbation.</p> + +<p>Sixteen missions have been in operation during the year, all but three +of them for the entire twelve months. Thirty-five workers have been employed, +ten of whom have been Chinese brethren. The months of labor +aggregate 354.</p> + +<p>The total number who have been enrolled as pupils in our schools is +1,380. This is larger by 249 than the enrollment of the previous year, and +by 336 than that of the year before. The <i>average</i> membership month by +month was in the aggregate, 523; the average attendance, 319. These +numbers are also in excess of the corresponding ones in several previous +years. Among these members of our schools there are 211 that profess to +have ceased from idolatry, and 150 who are believed to be true disciples of +Christ. I cannot now state the exact number who have professed conversion +during the year, but I believe it to be about <i>forty</i>. If so, the total +number who have declared themselves to be Christians and have been accepted +as such by our brethren, is more than 750.</p> + +<p>The expenditures have been $11,019, of which more than 1,600 came +from the Chinese themselves, while their offerings for mission work in China +and expenses met in connection with Christian work in California would +show a giving on their part of at least $2,500 during the year.</p> + +<p>SOME OTHER TOKENS OF GOOD.—Our helper, Loo Quong, writes as +follows from Los Angeles under date of Sept. 20th: "Now I have some +good news to tell you this time. The first one is this, that <i>five</i> of our +brethren will receive their baptism on Sunday in the First Congregational +Church. I brought them all down to the church to be proved by the pastor +and the deacons, and they all gave their good testimonies to the satisfaction +<a name="page319" id="page319"></a><span class="newpage">[pg 319]</span> +of all. Dr. Hutchins [Rev. R.G. Hutchins, D.D., pastor] was so glad on +hearing this good news again. There will now be eleven Chinese members +among his white flock. He spoke very kind towards the Chinese and our +school in their prayer-meeting, as he always did so in his preaching." Another +item of good news is, that by an arrangement among the ladies of this +church, a reduction in the teaching force which I have been compelled to +make is to be made good by volunteer service, each lady giving one evening +in each week. I earnestly hope that this good example may be followed +in others of our churches.</p> + +<p>At San Buenaventura the new mission house, finished several months +ago, gives great satisfaction. It is not the property of the Mission, but has +been built for it and is rented to us at cost. We can rely upon the use of +it as long as the work continues in that place,—that is, if the building lasts +so long. We were paying $12.00 per month for a low, ill-located and ill-built, +untidy shanty, yet the best place that could be had. We now pay +$8.00 per month for a neat, commodious building which furnishes not only +an attractive school-room, but living rooms also, for which our brethren pay +a small rent, and thus make for themselves something very like a Christian +home. Four of these brethren were recently baptised and received to the +Congregational Church.</p> + +<p>No mention has yet been made in these columns of the new mission +house in Oakland which we hold by the same tenure as that at San Buenaventura. +It could not be better located, is a very neat structure, substantial +also, and planned expressly for our work. It, too, is rented to us at +cost. A hint of what goes on there, and of what goes <i>out</i> from there, aside +from the labors of the school, may be found in these few sentences from a +letter of Yong Jin: "One scholar promised to be Christian was two weeks +(i.e. two weeks ago), and he will join our Association to-night. I hope his +soul will be saved. I had preaching on the street last Sunday and before +last Sunday. I shall go next Sunday too. I hope you pray for me and this +school. May [may be] I can conquer the evil and bring more number to +the school and to the Association. I believe God has a great power."</p> + +<hr /> + +<h2>BUREAU OF WOMAN'S WORK.</h2> + +<h5>MISS D.E. EMERSON, SECRETARY.</h5> + +<p><span class="sc">We are glad</span> to see the State Organizations increasing.

This work added to the care of the Mission +Home will, I fear, be more than I can carry, unless I have help, and I do +not see how I can let one bit of the work stop.

I was glad to find a Christian Endeavor +Society in the school, it seemed so like home."</p> + +<hr /> + +<h3>WOMAN'S WORK IN NORTH CAROLINA.</h3> + +<h5>BY MISS A.E. FARRINGTON.</h5> + +<p>On Thursday, Oct. 3d, a Woman's Missionary Union was organized for +the Congregational churches of North Carolina. A year ago, at the meeting +of the State Association in Wilmington, the subject was discussed, and +a committee was appointed to confer with the ladies of the churches in +regard to a local organization in each church. The plan met with favor, +and on coming together this year it was found that nearly every church +reported a missionary society in some form. All were therefore ready for the +State Union, when the Association of Congregational Churches convened in +the little country church at Oaks. As there was no chapel or church parlor to +be placed at the disposal of the ladies, they withdrew to the grove, and there +under the tall, symmetrical oaks by the veranda of the little mission home +of Miss Douglass, the organization was effected with the aid of Miss Emerson, +of New York, who was present.</p> + +<p>The following evening a public meeting was held at which reports were +heard from the local societies. The dark countenances were light with +eager interest, as they listened to the account of the work done by the women. +One told of a society, organized in February with two members who +became President and Treasurer. The numbers soon increased to eight, all +of them hard-working women, one of them the mother of twelve children +for whom she found it difficult to provide, yet that society reported $10.61 +as the result of their eight months' work.</p> + +<p>Another reported a weekly Bible reading in connection with the Woman's +Society, at which one who could read took the Bible while others gathered +around, and "as they got to understand the Word" they spoke to one +another of the work of the Lord in their own hearts.</p> + +<p>Report was made of a contribution to the Indian work at Fort Berthold, +<a name="page321" id="page321"></a><span class="newpage">[pg 321]</span> +also a quilt made by the little girls for a Christmas present to the Indian +children.</p> + +<p>One society, embracing both home and foreign work, cared for the sick +and needy of its own church, and also sent contributions to Africa.</p> + +<p>Knowing, as I do, the poverty of this people and the sacrifices they +make, I could but feel that if in the North there should be as ready and +proportionate a response, the treasury of the Lord would be overflowing.</p> + +<hr /> + +<p><b>WOMAN'S STATE ORGANIZATIONS.</b></p> + +<p>CO-OPERATING WITH THE AMERICAN MISSIONARY ASSOCIATION.</p> + + +<p>MAINE.<br /> +WOMAN'S AID TO A.M.A.</p> +<blockquote>Chairman of Committee—Mrs. C.A.

A.S. Barnes & Co. publish a great variety of valuable works. There is +nothing better in the line of hymn books than their "Carmina Sanctorum," edited by +Zachary Eddy, Lewis Ward Mudge and the late Dr. Roswell Dwight Hitchcock. +This book of sacred song has already been adopted by over <b><i>400 Churches</i></b> of +different denominations—<i>The New York Observer</i>.</p> + +<hr class="short" /> + +<p>Any congregation that likes to have its hymnal represent careful thought and full +culture, would do well to examine this collection of "Carmina Sanctorum," recently +published by A.S. Barnes & Co. The editors have taken it for granted that choirs and +congregations are desiring, not revolution, but only improvement in their service of +song, <i>i.e.</i>—the plan is conservative, but not narrowly so. It represents the great +communion of saints of all ages and nations. All corners of the vast hymnic field have +been drawn on.—<i>The Independent, New York</i>.</p> + +<hr class="short" /> + +<p>"Carmina Sanctorum" contains 746 hymns, 21 doxologies, 43 chants, 450 tunes and +7 separate indexes. The hymns are only the choicest, and they have been carefully +edited by that accomplished authority in hymnody, Dr. Hitchcock, who gives the date +and authorship of each hymn and notes all abbreviations and changes in each page. +The responses are selected from the revision and make a complete manual. The +cream of the old [tunes] is all here. The cream of the new is all here. <span class="sc">As The +AMERICAN CHURCHES HAVE GROWN IN TASTE AND CAPACITY FOR MUSICAL EXPRESSION IN +WORSHIP, THIS BOOK SEEMS TO MEET THEIR WANTS COMPLETELY, GIVING THEM PLENTY OF +TUNES, THEY CAN AND WILL SING, AND AT THE SAME TIME EDUCATING THEIR TASTE AND +IMPROVING THEIR PUBLIC WORSHIP</span>. It is also a pleasant feature that when new tunes +are furnished to certain hymns, the more familiar ones will be found on the same page. +To all this may be added that four editions are published, two with music and two +without, and they are all cheap.—<i>The New York Evangelist.</i></p> + +<hr class="short" /> + +<p>SPECIMEN COPIES FURNISHED ON APPLICATION.</p> + +<hr class="short" /> + +<p><b>A.S.

In 2001, the Project +Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure +and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations. +To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation +and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4 +and the Foundation web page at https://www.pglaf.org. + + +Section 3.

Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg +Literary Archive Foundation + +Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide +spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of +increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be +freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest +array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations +($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt +status with the IRS. + +The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating +charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United +States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a +considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up +with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations +where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To +SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any +particular state visit https://pglaf.org + +While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we +have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition +against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who +approach us with offers to donate. + +International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make +any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from +outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff. + +Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation +methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other +ways including including checks, online payments and credit card +donations. To donate, please visit: https://pglaf.org/donate + + +Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic +works. + +Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm +concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared +with anyone. For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project +Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support. + +Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed +editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S. +unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not necessarily +keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition. + +Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility: + + https://www.gutenberg.org + +This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm, +including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary +Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to +subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks. + +*** END: FULL LICENSE *** + + + +</pre> + +</body> +</html> |
