African Mission School Equipment.
The following is an extract from a letter from Rev. Jas. Fraser to Rev. W. Grant received since Synod met:—
“We are indeed deeply grateful to yourself, to the donors, and to those who helped to pack and despatch such a valuable box of equipment. It is without doubt the finest lot of school and mission requisites which we have had so far from overseas. Every single article is of value. We are very glad to get so many English Bibles and copies of the Pilgrim’s Progress. Those will be put into the hands of our students in the Teacher Training Centre, and there are enough, not only for this year’s class, but for the new students whom we expect (D.V.) next year. May the blessing of the Holy Spirit follow the study of these precious books. The exercise books, foolscap, pencils and rubbers are an exceptionally fine lot and will help considerably to reduce the cost of equipping our schools.
“Please convey to Mr. Paton my warmest thanks for the generous share contributed by the Grant Educational Company. The Trinitarian Bible Society have also contributed most handsomely, and we are much indebted to them.”
