Wherefore, my friend, we must not whine, nor ddfre to claim compassion for imaginary renunciations. ' Thus would this good man argue against himself, in order to do justice to men with whose teaching he could not on many points agree.
It was by the Padre's assistance that I was first enabled to get into communication with the savages, although the Fathers themselves had never visited them. The Sek-hoan converts were on intimate terms with the savage ab- origines, and they gladly introduced me t...o some of their head men.
The Roman Catholics have made some progress amongst the Chinese, but their chief success has been with the civilised aborigines.
In 1864 the English Presbyterian Mission determined to attempt the conversion of Formosa. They therefore sent over the Rev. Carstairs Douglas, a most accomplished Chinese scholar ; and Dr. Maxwell, a medical missionary, who had left his post as house-surgeon to the Birmingham Infirmary in order to preach the Gospel. These gentlemen commenced operations at Takao and Taiwanfoo.
