That story is too full to allow of any attempt to include the splendid devotion, and the successful labours, of other Missions of Christendom. But, for a fair work, a knowledge of those Missions is essential; and it is in the hope of leading some of its readers to such further comparative study that this series has been taken in hand. <\/p><p> The Editors have tried to keep in view the fact that, while the wonderful achievements here recorded have been accomplished in large part through the agency of our Missionary Societies, yet these Societies are, after all, only the hands and arms of the Holy Church in the execution of her divine mission to the world\u2026<\/p><cite>Pages vii-viii.<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This is a brief history of the work of Anglican missions in North India up to around 1908.
