SOUTH INDIAN 844 MISSIONARY SKETCHES CONTAINING A SHORT ACCOUNT OF THE MISSIONARY STATIONS, CONNECTED WITH THE CHURCH MISSIONARY SOCIETY IN SOUTHERN INDIA, JAMES NISBET AND CO., 21, BERNERS STREET. MDCCCXLIII. THE writer of the South Indian Sketches begs to apologize to her friends for the time that has elapsed between the publication of the first and second parts. But she can scarcely regret the delay, as it has given time for nearly the whole of the present portion to pass under the eye of one who has the best means of judging of its correctness, and from whom so much of her previous information was received. She cannot omit this opportunity of expressing her gratitude to those friends, whose kindness. procured so extended a circulation of the former part, and she now sends forth the remainder with the hope and prayer, that He who accepts, according to what a man hath, and not according to what he hath not," will again vouchsafe His blessing. 66 Southborough, June, 1843. |
