Author Description

Excerpt from Letters From Sarawak: Addressed to a Child All Parents whose fate separates them from their little ones, during their early years, must feel anxious to lessen the distance which parts them, by such familiar accounts of their life and habits as shall give their children a vivid interest in their parents' home. With this view the fol lowing letters were sent to my little boy, during the last two years we were parted from him, when he was old enough to understand their contents; but I am induced to publish them at the instance of my friends, in order that the Mission, in which we are engaged, may become bet ter known and more appreciated.
