Missionary feats and growth in Niue and Bechuana regions
Dr. Moffat outlines vast Christian expansion from Niue to Bechuanaland, noting 12 000 converts, native Bible translation, and new schools and cottages. He recounts government support, trade links aiding commerce, and the spread of native agencies as missions establish out-stations and print presses. A Leicester gathering praises his long service and prays for continued work, while Dr. Morratin and others stress Scriptural translation and unity among churches.
