The Society's Report to the Board.1903.

The following report, approved by the Executive Committee of the American Church Missionary Society, September 14th, 1903, is presented to the Board of Missions of the Domestic and Foreign Missionary Society of the Protestant Episcopal Church in the United States, in conformity with Section 4 of the Articles of Agreement between the Society and the Board.

In amount of work it has been able to perform, by the means at its com

mand, in the attitude of the public toward it and its work, and in its prospects for the future, this Society has much for which to be grateful to A lmighty God.

We have to report, first, the splendid advance made by the Church in Brazil. As yet that Church is confined to the one State of Rio Grande, in the very southern extremity of Brazil. but with true missionary zeal its Bishop makes appeal, at this time, for three new workers with whom to plant

THE CHURCH MISSION i i

the Church in the three principal cities of Santos, San Paulo, and Rio de Janiero. The record of achievement of this vigorous Church for the year just ended i s :

Services of the Church in eight new places, the addition of three new chapels and two churches, the consecration of the Church in the State capital, the ordination of three deacons, the employment of another acting deaconess, the admission of three candidates for Holy Orders, the organization of a theological school with competent instructors and eight students, and continued development of the whole Church in the direction of self support. The British and Foreign, and the American Bible societies have recently determined to undertake a new translation of the Scriptures in Portuguese, and they honored the slender staff of workers in the Church in Brazil by asking two of them, the Rev. Dr. Brown, and the Rev. Mr. Cabral, to assist them. The last named is unable to comply because of press of parish duties, but the Rev. Dr. Brown, whose translation of our liturgy into Portuguese is remembered, is co-operating in the work.

In connection with this splendid record two points are to be noted. I. There has been no increase in financial support from the Church in the United States. 2. The Church in Rio Grande feels strong enough to provide native clergy for future advance in its own State.

It is upon such a record, rarely equalled in the history of missionary enterprises, that the Bishop appeals to the Church in the United States for funds to provide a Normal School in the State capital where teachers may be trained for the parochial schools, which are imperatively needed in all the principal cities, and which once started are self supporting; for funds to provide another edition of the Prayer Book in Portuguese; and for salaries of three clergy, already men

tioned to make beginnings in the three great cities of Central Brazil.

During the year the Society sent one of its workers in Cuba, the Rev. Mr. McGee, to the Isle of Pines, and another, the Rev. Mr. Sharpe, to the Province of Puerto Principe. Both report finding important developments. especially by American capital, and the presence of large numbers of Americans, many of them Church people, who are wondering why the Church does not establish itself among them, and take the support in money and workers which they stand ready to give. In the case of schools this support promises to be sufficient to maintain the entire work, and in the case of missions there are offers of partial support.

Within the year the Society removed its orphanage from Mantanzas to Havana, in which city it is now well maintained. The Church of H avana is still inadequately equipped, but is doing its best, while the work at Bolondron makes excellent progress. The Bishop of Porto Rico, the Rt. Rev. Dr. Van Buren, is serving the Church in Cuba, and the Society, very acceptably.

For Cuban work the Society appeals for funds with which to purchase site and erect a Church in Havana ; to maintain a Bishop of Havana ; to place ordained missionaries in Puerto Principe, Santiago and La Gloria, on the Isle of Pines, and in other parts of the island which are now being opened up by railroads.

A feature of the domestic work of the Society is the retirement of the Rev. D. C. T. Davis because of infirmity. Had he been able to continue until next May he would have served in the ministry of the Church of God exactly fifty years. His years of devoted service were rounded out by the consecration of his Mission Church at Woodstock by Bishop Gibson, of V irginia. There is a loud call for additional workers in the domestic field. The number of people seeking the

12 THE CHURCH MISSION.

ministrations of the Church is out of all proportion to the Society’s ability to provide spiritual shepherds.

On the 18th of December. 1902, occurred the death of General Wager Swayne, U. S. A., President of the Society since 1894. General Swayne came of that splendid Quaker stock which has" given so many of its able men and women to the Church. Born in Ohio and educated at Yale, he came to maturity just in time to enter the military service of his country at the beginning of the Civil War. Nine years later he left that service bearing the rank of a Major General. Resuming the law, he became distinguished in his profession, and also rendered meretorious services to his city, his State and the nation in the work of political reform. He was always interested in the spread of the Gospel, especially during the latter part of his life, through the agency of this Society. For fifty years he gave time, energy, money and great ability to the service of God and of man, and this Society rejoices that linked with its name and with missions is the name of such a leader of men and servant of Jesus Christ.

The new President of the Society is Mr. William Ja v Schieffelin, of New York. Mr. Schieffelin is identified with the work of education in the

South. He is a manager of the American Bible Society, a vestryman of St. George’s Church, New York, and president of the Lay Helpers’ A ssociation of New York.

Last June the Rev. Dr. W. Dudley Powers tendered his resignation as General Secretary of the Society, to take effect August 3 1 , 1903. During his secretaryship the Church in Brazil has been strengthened and one Bishop consecrated for it. The Cuban work has been prosecuted upon slender resources, and the standing of the Society has been well maintained at home. The Rev. Dr. Powers is now rector of St. Paul’s Church, Flint, Mich.

In June the Society followed a new plan, already adopted by your Board and by several missionary organizations in America and England, by electing a layman as one of its secretaries. The layman chosen is Mr. Eugene M. Camp, for six years and still the Head Helper of the Lay Helpers’ Association of New York. Mr. Camp has been made Office Secretary, and a clergyman is to be chosen for the field work.

Church Council and Consecration in Southern BraziL

We have just had a great Council in our small way. On Saturday last we arrived from Porto Alegre, the delegates and clergy from that section coming down the lake with me. I also brought Mrs. Kinsolving, Miss Mary Packard, who, with Mr. Meen, stayed at Dr. Brown’s home. The Doctor and Mr. Ribble live together now in a commodious house and chacara near the church. The Council opened, as usual, with Holy Communion. As Mr. Cabral, the Council preacher, could not attend on account of the illness of

a child, I made the opening address. It was our first Council in a church, and all the meetings and services had, of course, in consequence, additional significance and solemnity. We duly organized and got to work on Saturday.

On Sunday morning I addressed the Sunday school, now numbering 220, under Mr. Ribble’s fostering care, and at 1 1 a . m . the beautiful new Church of the Saviour was consecrated. The service was solemn and uplifting. The principal lay delegates


and the vestry preceded the clergy up the central aisle as the consecration Psalm was said. The sentence of consecration was read by Dr. Brown, the sermon preached by Mr. Meem, who surpassed himself, and deserved the praise given generously by press and congregation. The service lasted two hours and a half and the attention throughout was marked and reverent —one and all felt, I ’m sure, that no religious function had ever been held in Rio Grande of such deep spiritual significance and profound solemnity.

On Sunday afternoon we had English service, as usual, when Dr. Brown gave us a fine address, while the semichoral Evening Prayer was rendered beautifully. At night I confirmed a class presented by Mr. Ribble, and ended a fairly busy day as the evening preacher. The work of the Council was accomplished during the next four days. There were some able debates on questions demanding discussion, while the routine work was executed with promptness and decision. The increased force and ability of the lay order was marked, while the clergy had cause to be thankful for the addition of three deacons to their ranks who, in the conduct of their mission work, and in the part taken in the deliberations of the Council, evidenced exceptional devotion to duty, clearness of thought, and ability in execution. The daily morning services were attended by the members of the Council and the Seminary students, without a single exception, I believe, and by a few of the parishioners, while the evening congregations grew daily till the closing service on Wednesday night.

I cannot help thinking that one and all felt, consciously or unconsciously throughout the Council, the influence of the building which we gave to God. The granite exterior, cruciform, every gable cross-cornered, with singularly accurate proportions of tower, nave, transepts, and choir, rising out of a well-kept church-yard of shrubs and

palms and growing shade trees, with ivy beginning to climb the walls, the interior newly colored under Mr. Rib- ble’s tasteful oversight—not a pagan tint to be seen, not a line or curve or spurious make-believe to cry out for rectification— the whole giving warm and reverential welcome to the worshipper ; the chancel rising three steps above the floor of the nave, flanked by a beautiful font, pulpit, and clergy stalls of red cedar, the sanctuary one step higher, with its handsome railing of the same native wood, the Bishop’s chair and sedilia of like material on either side of the holy table, which is one step above them, three above the sanctuary floor, and seven above the floor of the nave. In my wide experience at home, I have rarely spoken in a church or celebrated in one where the height of pulpit, chancel and holy table give such satisfaction, nor one whose equipment would give warmer welcome to a Prayer Book Churchman.

In chronicling the meeting of the Council of the Brazilian Episcopal Church the leading dailies of Rio Grande went out of their way to speak in warmest and most generous praise of the Church’s influence and work in this State and increasing hold upon its people.

Thursday night, after the adjournment of Council, before the delegates could leave, there was a meeting of the Woman’s Auxiliary, when the various parishes were heard from, and the reports given showed great progress and enthusiasm. I presided over this meeting and asked one of our eloquent lay delegates, Sr. Catao Coelho, to address it, which he did most acceptably. The Council, at its closing session, during my momentary absence from the chair, by a unanimous vote, requested me to appoint Mrs. Kinsolving to organize the various branches into one and report annually to the Council of the Woman’s Auxiliary and their work.

THE CHURCH MISSION 15Southern Brazil.

On M ay 15, 1889, the Church performed the first official act in establishing work in South America. The Society on that date decided to send the Rev. Lucien Lee K insolving and the Rev. Jam es W. Morris to Brazil. Both were Virginians, and both had been trained at the Virginia Theological Seminary. Assistance came to them from Philadelphia, New Jersey, Richmond and Baltimore, and they sailed from N oriolk.Ya., ou Sep t.i, 1889. They went first to Sao Paulo, Centra] Brazil, where they studied the Portuguese language, and in June, 1890, inaugurated the work of the Church in South America by opening a Chapel in Porto Alegre, Rio Grande do Sal. Their efforts prospered.

In 1891 Rev. William Cabell Brown, Rev. John G. Meem, and Miss Mary Packard sailed for Brazil, and upon their arrival a Convocation was organized, and the mission took on new life. Missions were started in Rio Grande, Pelotas, Contracto, Viamao, Jaguarao and other places. In 1893 Bishop Peterkin of West Virginia visited the mission and confirmed 142 persons. He licensed several catechists, ordered four native Brazilians to the Diaconate, and licensed four other Brazilians as lay readers. In 1897 the Bishop of the Falkland Islands visited the mission and confirmed 159 persons.

In 1898 the General Convention, in Washington, elected the Rev. Lucien Lee K insolving to be Bishop for Southern Brazil, his fellow missionaries on the field having recommended him, and he was consecrated in St. Bartholomew’s Church, New York, on the Feast of the Epiphany, 1899. Returning to his work, there accompanied him the Rev. G. Wallace Ribble and Miss Maria R. Pitts, Deaconess. The Rev. W illiam Cabell Brown translated the Book of Common Prayer into Portuguese, and an edition was published by the Bishop White Prayer Book Society of Philadelphia. So creditable was the work that its author was granted the degree of Doctor of Divinity. A Theological Seminary has been established in Rio Grande, and a Woman’s A uxiliary has been organized in the mission. From the first, lay workers were utilized, and none were found more efficient than the devoted wives of the clergy.

The services of the Church in eight new places, three chapels and two churches, the ordination of three Deacons, the admission of three candidates for Holy Orders, the employment of one acting Deaconess, the organization of a Theological School with eight students, and continued advance of the whole Church in the State of Rio Grande do Sul toward self-support— such is the record last year. That it has rarely been equalled in missionary enterprises goes without saying.

In his recent advices the Bishop says: “ The work within the State ought to be done in largest measure by our present force and the sons of the Church in this Commonwealth.”

The Rev. Dr. J . W. Morris, the pioneer missionary, is in the United States, to remain here another year. The Rev. Dr. Brown has been relieved of the work in Rio Grande, save only the English congregation, and has become Dean of the Seminary. He is also assisting the British and Foreign, and the American Bible Societies in the task of revising the Scriptures in Portuguese. Other members of the Seminary faculty are the Rev. Messrs. Meem and Ribble.

Upon his ordination last January the Rev. Mr. Coelho went, upon invitation, to a Church and school at Florida, and has since started a new Mission at Cangussu. The Church building had been occupied by Lutherans, the congregation having been gathered by a German schoolmaster. Upon his ordination the Rev. Mr Guimaraes located at Bage, the most important town in the State not previously entered. Bage is near the Uruguayan frontier, and the centre of a large cattle trade. The Rev. Mr. Fraga began services in Sao Sebas- tiao, and the Rev. Messrs, Fraga and Cabral man a chapel at Sao Leopoldo. These comprise the Church growth in stations.

There is need for another man in priest’s orders to take the place of the Rev. Dr. Morris. Were there no vacancy, however, the need would exist, because by another year vacations must be granted to those who have been several years at parochial work. The only way the standard can be maintained is for the workers to rest occasionally. The language must be acquired by the new man. Hence it is none too early to have him on the field.

i6 THE CHURCH MISSION

The Chuich is not regarded in Southern Brazil as an intrusion. On the contrary, invitations to establish itself in cities beyond its present boundaries reach the Bishop in larger numbers than can be accepted. These invitations come from cities in the direction of the Argentine, and from Uruguay on the South. Some also come from the interior of Brazil, and from the coast cities on the North, It is Bishop Ivinsolving’s conception of immediate growth that the Church should occupy, as early as possible, the three great cities of Central Brazil. These cities are Santos, Sao Paulo and Rio de Janeiro. These are cities of the first rank, the last named the capital of the United States of Brazil.

A need in Rio Grande do Sul is the parish school. Only two such schools are as yet established. One is at Florida, and is a part of the extension of last year, and the other is at Jaguarao. Both are self-supporting. Such schools should be established at all missions, and were thev established they would become self-supporting at once. The difficulty about starting them lies in the lack of teachers. The •slender staff of clergy and deaconesses is overburdened with the work of evangelization, parish support, and the training of a native ministry. The want is for Christian laymen and lay- women. These are not to be had, save by training. For their training there should be established, preferably

‘ at Port Alegra, the State capital, a normal training school. At its head should be, according to Bishop Kin- solving, a Church layman of experience as an educator, his wife, who should be able to assist in the work, and an additional teacher. These three educators will have to be sent from the United States. The normal school established, its student corps will come from native Churchmen and Church women, in numbers sufficient to provide the teaching force of the parish schools. The initial cost of

founding such normal school will be the salaries of the three educators, one of whom will be the principal, and the rent of a suitable property.

The latter part of July, Bishop Kin- solving made a visit to Rio to study religious conditions in Central Brazil. The occasion of his visit was to redeem a promise to preach the opening sermon before the National Convention of the Young Men’s Christian Association. It was a great occasion. There were present representative men from all Central Brazil—ministers and workers of various denominations, some of whom had spent thirty or forty years in South America—and testimory comes from some of those who were present, that the Bishop rose to the occasion and delivered an address which made a deep impression upon all. A distinguished Brazilian orator present declared at its close, “ There is not a Bishop of the Roman Church in Brazil who could thrill an audience like that.” The address was published in full in the Journal of Commerce, of Rio, and thus found its way into many cultivated Brazilian homes.

A part of the United States fleet, under Admiral Sumner, and including Captain Wainwright, of Santiago fame, Commander Dillingham, Lieutenant Commander Hetherington and Lieutenant Commander McCormick were at Rio at the time. Eighteen months before, Bishop Kinsolving had made a strong plea in New York for the giving of the Y . M. C. A. building to Rio.

It was grateful to South American Churchmen that their Bishop should have been asked to make the principal address on this occasion, and not less that the occasion should have been used to cultivate good relations among the Americans at work for the redemption of Brazil. The Bishop preached on Sunday for the English Chaplain in Rio, and the following week presided over a religious Congress at Sao Paulo.

THE CHURCH MISSION i /

The Bandera de Jesus, Havana.

Cuba.Philadelphia has the honor of starting the Church’s work in Cuba. In July, 1883, Mr.

John P. Rhoads of that city made possible, by gifts, the sending of Mr. Pedro Duarte to Matanzas as a colporteur of the American Bible Society. Mr. Duarte was a candidate for Holy Orders at the time, and so was granted a license as a lay reader by Bishop Stevens of Pennsylvania. The first Prayer Book service was held in Matanzas on August 5, 1883. After four months Mr. Duarte returned to the United States, and for two years the Rev. Juan B. Bres had charge in Matanzas. In 1885. supported by the Cuban Guild of Philadelphia, Mr. Duarte returned, being in Deacon’s orders, and missions were planted in Havana and Bolondron. During the Cuban insurrection, from February, 1895, to December, 1898, the Rev. Jose R. Pena, then a lay reader, maintained services at Jesus del Monte. So far as is known, this was, for some time, the only place of Protestant worship in Cuba

The Church’s Cuban work really begins at the close of the Spanish war, and the occupation of Cuba by American troops. During American occupation General Wilson and others aided the Church there, and for a time a Government building was used for a Chapel, many military officers attending the services. The Bandera de Jesus grew out of war conditions, Mrs. Farres being its founder. It was first located in Havana, was then removed to Matanzas and called an orphanage, and is now once more in Havana, with its first name of Bandera For a long time Bishop Whitaker of Pennsylvania had episcopal charge, and the work is now under the care of Bishop Van Buren of Porto Rico. From the inception of both Cuban work and of the Bandera the Cuban Guild of Philadelphia rendered splendid service

Modern Cuba.

In square miles Cuba is a little larger than England, Scotland and Wales, but in arable land it is a good deal larger than all three. There is much waste land in the British Isles, even in Ireland, but there is, outside of Santiago Province, hardly any on the Island of Cuba. In England, Wales and Scotland there is a population of 38,000,000. In Cuba there is one of 1,T)00,000. That the population of Cuba will increase, with corresponding wealth, there is no question. Under American rule its cities were cleaned and sewered, and under the present Republic sanitary conditions are being maintained. This means that Cuba is as healthful as any other part o f the globe. Its climate, especially throughout the greater part of the year, is delightful, as all know. A railway now extends from end to end of the island, with branches to several coast cities. Timber lands, farm lands, mining properties and municipal franchises are being developed. American colonies are springing up, especially in Santiago Province and along the north coast. Life and enterprise are everywhere apparent. Schools are being opened. Newspapers discuss public questions without fear of suppression. Religious freedom obtains. W ith all of this development the Church must keep pace.

tion of Bishop Van Buren the E x ecutive Committee decided, late in the year, to offer to the Mission in Havana the sum of $6,000, on condition that it raise $2,000, and with the $8,-000 to erect a Church on a lot owned by the Society and located in the Ve- dado section of the city.

When so voting, the Committee explained that its judgment was that a Church ought to be built in Havana proper, and not in a suburb. But it also explained that, being unable to secure funds with which to purchase site and build there, it deemed the plan to build in the Vedado the next best one, and declared that it could not be inactive. The definite action concerning the Vedado moved friends of the larger undertaking to make offers of money, material, and work. One of the offers included a considerable part of the building material for the Church. The close of the year found a pilgrimage to Cuba planned, for personal inspection of all questions bearing upon the location and the Cuban work. Encouragement over the situation was felt, and it is believed that a Church in Havana, either in the Vedado if need be, and in the centre of the city if possible, will soon be built.

The Rev- W. H. McGee, who is in charge of the Chapel in Havana, made two visits to the Isle of Pines, and on one of them received an offer of land, attached to which was the condition that a sum be given sufficient to lay the foundation of a school. The offer could not be accepted for lack of funds, but small appropriations were made for the furnishing of two Chapels, built by those who are to use them.

By direction of the Society the Rev. Andrew T. Sharpe went to Puerto Principe and La Gloria, and in both places found churchmen who desired to help gather Sunday schools and establish Church services. At Puerto Principe he preached to a large congregation in a Methodist place of

Rt. Rev. Dr. J . H. Van Buren,Bishop in Charge.

worship, and at La Gloria, an American settlement, he was offered a plot on condition that the Society build a Chapel upon it. The Society was unable to extend its work, much as it desired to do so, and Mr. Sharpe returned to Havana, as previously planned, the trip to the middle province of the island having been merely to study conditions. He re-entered upon work at Jesus del Monte, the Rev. Jose R. Pena being still ill. The latter is a veteran in the service of the Society, and much sympathy is entertained for him. In Mantanzas the Church’s interests are under the care of the Rev. M. F. Moreno, who is located at Bolondron, and are in charge of Mr. Emilio Planas y Hernandez, a teacher of experience, and a candidate for Holy Orders. In spite of many trying difficulties, he has brought into existence a day school whose pupils pay tuition in amounts sufficient to support that part of the work. Out of the day school Mr. Planas is building up a Sunday school. At Bolondron is maintained the only Church exclusively for work among Cubans. Mr. Moreno’s confirmation class numbered, as has been noted, 16 persons. Other phases of the work are equally encouraging.


The Bandera de Jesus,B y M RS. AM ERICA DE GOICOURIA DE FAR RES.

L a Bandera de Jesus was founded in 1899 in that ward of Havana, Cuba, known as the Cerro. The need had its origin in the war. Orphans were cared for, but we did more; with the aid of charitable persons we assisted families during those dark days, often caring for their children until they could care for them themselves. I could tell you of many cases of dire distress; you have read of our war, and of the horrors it entailed upon women and children. Our plan was, not alone to assist to support and to employment, but also to place, where possible, orphan boys and girls in homes of well to do persons, and of these homes, and of the children who went into them, I could also tell much. It was all a labor of love, and all for the Master and for His little ones.

Immediate needs being over, and peace and freedom arrived, twelve little girls, all who remained, were turned over to the orphanage in Man- tanzas, then and still under the care of the American Church Missionary Society, together w’ith $1,000 in Spanish gold, which represented the unexpected balance in the hands of the Bandera treasurer at the time. For three years the children remained in Mantanzas, but in February last they were transferred again to Havana. That is, ten of the girls came back, together with four others. The old name, dropped during the stay in Mantanzas, was resumed, and quarters, none too large, were found in the Cerro. Last Ju ly Miss Anna M. Reed came to conduct the Bandera and the school, and under her efficient care marked progress has been made. During the first period of the Bandera about one hundred and fifty children were given succor, a great number of families, and much dire need relieved. During its present period, when fourteen bright girls are being protected and given a Christian education, I will

quote from Miss Reed’s account, merely saying that, in order to gain larger quarters, and be near the Chapel and able to attend daily services, the Bandera was recently removed to Havana proper, and there most excellent progress is being made.

“ I found that the little girls had been well grounded by the Rev. Mr. Sharpe, and earlier by Mrs. Farres,” writes Miss Reed. “ The older girls are able to sew, clean, and assist with cooking. We have one sewing machine, but need another one. Our Church Home, or Bandera, is now at Corrales 15, and two blocks away is ‘El Colegio de la Iglesia Episcopal.’ Besides the girls of the Bandera we already have four pay pupils, and I hope to attract more such pupils, in time, making the Colegio self-supporting. Seven of the older girls are preparing for confirmation when Bishop Van Buren comes next May. It is a pity that prices for tuition are so low in Havana that it needs a great many scholars to give financial returns that count for much. The moral effect of each additional child from the outside is appreciable, and I feel encouraged by the favorable attention we receive from people - who have friends with children. I have organized a Normal Class, and have the older girls teach the younger ones under my direction. This has already proved most valuable, and it may be that some of the girls will be able after a while to earn their living as trained teachers. Our scholars go to Sunday school at nine, and stay to English Service at ten. Then in the afternoon we have Service in Spanish. The children are devoted to the Church, and can follow its services in Spanish and in English. The children of the Bandera rise early to do the housework before going to Morning Prayer, and on Saturday they clean house thoroughly, and make their own clothes. Two girls, for


merly members, are taking courses in nursing.”

For many years little was done in Cuba in the building of orphanages and schools. With political independence, we Cubans have now much to

It is settled that there is to be a pilgrimage. At this writing 17 persons have signified their intention to go. These include several members of the Executive Committee of the Society, and a number of ladies. The number of pilgrims is not limited, and an invitation is extended to all friends of the Society and of the Cuban work. Especially is it desired that friends of the Bandera may go.

Some have preference for the allsteamer route, and others desire the route by train to Port Tampa. The rate by water, the Ward Line’s splendid express steamer “ Morro Castle’’ is $70, New York to Havana and return. The date of sailing from New York, pier 16, East River, is Saturday, January 9, at one p. m., arriving in Havana early on the following Wednesday morning. The rate bv Port Tampa, and steamer thence to Havana via Key West, is $ 1 15 both ways, including double berth in sleeper. I f

do, and with our poverty, not much to do it with. Won't our friends in the great United States help us? At least won’t they help the Bandera? I am sure they will, when they know the good work it has done, and is doing.

two persons occupy one berth some saving may be made. The date of departure from New York cannot now be fixed, but it will be about Monday, January II , in time to make the steamer from Tampa. The Seaboard Air Line expect that the car containing the party will be attached to the Florida special, and therefore go through in the shortest possible time. Notice by mail will be given intending pilgrims. • I f a larger number join the party the rates by steamer will be somewhat reduced, and by train the party will have an entire car to itself. The rates quoted are without any guarantee as to number. Those going by train, and joining the party at Philadelphia and points South will have slightly lower fares.

The stay in Cuba will be about ten days, although there is ample limit to tickets to permit of a longer stay. Pilgrims will be free to make such trips beyond Havana as their fancy dictates.

The Pilgrimage to Cuba.

The Morro Castle.

22 THK CHURCH MISSION

The Office Secretary of the Society will attend to details of tickets, berths, etc., and will be glad to answer questions concerning the trip.

The steamer “ Morro Castle” is constructed of steel, and has twin screws. Her length is 400 feet and width 50 feet; gross tonnage, 7,000 tons, and speed 18 knots. She carries the United States and Cuban mails.

The Seaboard A ir Line desires to place a car at the disposal of the party, to attach it to the Florida Flyer, and to send a personal representative as far as Tampa to care for wants of the pilgrims. Of course berths in best staterooms will be reserved on the steamer. The trip from Tampa to Havana occupies a night and part of a day, with a call at Key West.

Domestic Work.

Under its charter the Society is at liberty to enter upon domestic as well as foreign work. For the most part it has, however, confined itself to the administration of funds coming to its hands. Appeals to it are many, some of them from among members of its own Executive Committee, to undertake more work in the domestic field.

The Society administers funds left to it by will and otherwise for the maintenance of work in Nevada, in Idaho, and in the Diocese of Spokane. It also grants stipends for whole or partial maintenance of missionaries laboring in W est Virginia, Southern V irginia, East Carolina, Olympia, Chicago, Virginia and New York.

Two domestic missionaries resigned at the end of the year. One of them was the Rev. Henry L. Badger, Olympia, Wash., and the other the veteran worker, the Rev. D. C. T. Davis, of Mt. Jackson, Va. Ill health compells Mr. Davis partially to forego his faithful labors. Had he been able to continue in service until March, 1904, he would have completed a half century since his ordination. The Society hopes that he may recover his health, and have still some years of usefulness in a less arduous field. When preparing his address on “ The

, Home Missionary as a Patriot,” delivered at the recent Missionary Council in Washington, Mr. Justice Brewer, of the United States Supreme Court, must have had before him a record of the achievements of the Society’s home missionaries.

As noted at the opening of this report, under the title “ The Year at a Glance,” the Society resolved upon work at home which it believes will not only prove helpful to its own work, abroad and at home, but will advance the cause of missions in the whole Church.

Prayer Books for Brazil.

It is not surprising that more Prayer Books are needed by the Brazilian Church, when it is known that the communicant list is growing in the old parishes and missions, and that the services of the Church were begun in eight new places last year. The Rev. Dr. William Cabell Brown and the Rev. Dr; J . W. Morris have corrected the few errors of the former edition, and the Bishop White Prayer Book Society of Philadelphia has printed and bound, at its cost, 1,000 copies of the Prayer Book in Portuguese. It happened that a ship was being despatched from New York for Rio Grande direct, and so the books were forwarded by it on December 8. Usually shipment has to be made to Rio de Janeiro, and trans-shipment made there. To the Bishop White Prayer Book Society this Society has expressed its formal appreciation of the gift.


Annual Report of the Treasurer.

The Society must have larger financial receipts, or it must curtail its work. Achievements in some fields and urgent demands in others have led the Society on until, for the past few years, it has undertaken to do more than its income permits. The Society owns a small list of securities, but more than one-half of these funds are in trust, the income to go to objects specified by the givers. The income of funds that are not designated must be held for emergencies. Other missionary societies find it impossible to tell a year in advance just how much

money will come to them during a twelvemonth. This Society is no exception. Again, during the summer vacation months stipends go on, while contributions decline. From the Society’s slender reserve of undesignated funds it was compelled to use no less a sum than $2,800. It is easy to see that this cannot continue. The Society cannot go into debt. Loud as calls from promising fields may be, this Society can spend only such sums as churches and individuals intrust to it
