Wonders of Ceylon and the great preacher at Colombo
The Rev Dr Talmage delivers a world tour sermon on Ceylon titled Isle of Palma. He extols Ceylon as a garden of Eden like isle of palms, describing Colombo harbor, Buddhist colleges, Hindu temples, and Christian missions transforming the island. He contrasts two processions, praises American missionaries, and envisions Ceylon's evangelization amid ancient ruins and modern schools.
