REETRIETA

e ——

In presenting the Sixth

Nneporg

of our

Mission

to our friends and

supporters, we would first of all gratefully acknowledge the mercy and

goodness of our great Head, who has during the past year so gracious-

ly succoured and supported us amidst our various trials and labours,

encouraged us by fresh tokens of love from many a well wisher to His

Holy cause, and we may add,

1elined our hearts to dedicate ourselves

afresh to Hi

service in making known His blessed name to a perish-

1ng nation,

It is

no pleasan

ask to record publicly the progress or

success of our own hboam

vet has an annual retrospect of the same

this advantage, that it lead

anew to self examination of heart and

life, so convincing us afresl

that unto the Lord belongs the glory for

any good that may have been don

and we, after we have done the

things commanded us, must say, we are unprofitable servants, we have

Acain on the other hand we

done that which was our duty to do.

consider it the duty of every true christian to take a lively interest in

the establishing of Christ’s kingdom, and we desire by this means like-

wise to excite a greater sympathy and j participation in the part of the

Lord’s work entrusted to us.

We have now entered on the twelfth year of our mission in this

Oi

country, and on a review we find, that already thirty Missionarie

whom 13 were married,

have been sen

ha

1T

Lord’s

out to this part of t}

vineyard; 21 of them, 11 of whom are married, are still actively engag-

ed in the work. During the course of last year w

Br. Greiner was consequently called in,

and when the daughter thro’ the mercy of God got better, she with

The father too tried alternately w

tears, thr

village was soon roused to indignation against them.

They threw the

young man out of caste and threatened the sister, that if she would not

separate from her husband (a late convert) they would do the same to

her, but if she would submit to their authority, they promis

her another husband. This was a time of great trial, yet by the good-

caste.

poor house here, under our care, only one woman, who was cast by her

unnatural relatives into the street along with her three children, was

awakened to a sense of thankfulness and acknowledgement of the mer-

and hope is, that all these, above mentioned, may be numbered among

those who are called to the marriage supper of the Lamb. We intend,

IOOLKY.

Rev. J. Ammann, and Mrs. Ammann.

The erection of a Mission House in the old Fort at Moolky, as

mentioned in our lastReport, has been completed and br. Ammann,

repaired thither in the beginning of July. He was joined by Mrs. Am-

mann in November last, Concerning his labours he writes, ¢ since my

removal from Kadike to Moolky I feel, I am where I ought to be (viz.)

in the midst of the people, and the visits of Natives from Moolky and

its vicinity are much more frequent, which gives me many welcome

e:,,\pportunii.ies to sow the seed of eternal life. A knowledge of the truths

of the Gospel (I observe) gets more and more abroad, tho’ not as yet to

=

i¢

J

the saving of the soul, for indifference with regard to their eternal

welfare, a tenacious clinging to caste, and the hold family connections

have on them, are the great drawbacks, the power of darkness employs

to keep them in their state of bondage.

The cross of Christ is still a

stumblingblock to some, and foolishness to others g

The Congregation has not increased during the year, except that the

W }‘-

VY iX

young man

o had, as formerly mentioned, relapsed again into hea-

thenism, was restored to Church fellowship.

It may be said of the

members in general that they are growing in grace and adorn the doc

trines they profess;

et are there not wanting instances of lukewarm-

ness, that tend to grieve and discourage us,

Two have fallen asleep

in Jesus, one of them in consequence of a fall from a high tree. A few

days previous to this, the death of one of his children, and the prepa-

ration for partaking of the Lord’s supper, brought him into nearer

communion with the Lord, and wrought in him a desire for heavenly

things.

The second who died was the Bramin youth, who was baptized

2 years ago at Kadike. He was attacked at the beginning of October by

cholera, and the Lord saw fit to gather him the same day into his

barn, as a shock of corn fully ripe.

He exhibited, especially during

the latter days of his sojourn here, a lively faith towards the Lord, who

bad washed him by his blood, and purchased for him acceptance with

God,

His end was peace, being fully assured that he was a child of

God.

It causes joy and tunes the keart to the praise of the Lord to

see one, a short time ago enveloped in gross heathenish darkness, now

depart in peace as a Simeon of old.

Oh that all living members of our

glorious Head would be aroused and pray like the widow in the Gospel,

unceasingly for a richer outpouring o

His spirit upon all His people,

but especially upon His servants who work among the heathen, that

they might stand in the power of God, and be enabled to rob the strong

one of his prey.

During the year I made three short journeys, and I am happy to say,

to them, and that now was the acceptable time.

On my first jouroey

over Caap, Oodupee, Purdura to Agumbi, I had chiefly to combat with

Brahminical superstition ; the second was to Mudabidgq to a festival,

held in honor of Mariama or Doorga, where Jain unbelicf, which holds

ever so long ask one from this idol he would not be able to give it me,

much less eternal happiness.

In Singana koppa they agreed to all that I advanced, except the

caste question, for said some, should we give up this, we would be like

whether the Kuropeans, who

At Rangapoor I found a Roman Catholic chapel.

There are in the

vicinity of this place about 70 or €0 roman catholics; but though it

was on a sunday, the greater part of them had gone to their fields.

The

heathen told me that they were like themselves; kept up like the rest

the distinction of caste, and that the low castes of them, called Schan-

dalas, were not even allowed to enter the Chapel. At last, some, after

I had called for them, came, and I had a long conversation on the

i

£

profanation of the sabbath, the o

i

fensiveness of caste distinction among

Christians, on image worship, meritorious acts, and on their not ac-

knowledging the word of God as the sole rule for life.

They exhibited

great ignorance of the Bible and produced therefrom strange argu-

ments : the most gifted ancong them said, the Papa saib (so they call

the Pope) must be the apostolical representative and teacher of all ; for

after Judas had fallen away, another was chosen in his stead, who was

to watch over the rest of the Apostles and their doctrine, which office

Wwas by succession brought down to the present Pope.

With regard to

the fallen nature of man, he partook of the ideas of his heathen neigh-

bours, namely, that sinful desires and a carnal mind were implanted

by the Creator.

From the word of God he refused instruction

.

v

and

after two Lours conversation they left me saying, between your English

Gospel and our Roman way, there is such a difference, that we are

persuaded yours must be from the Devil, for ours is right. At Hullam-

by I had a great number of hearers, among which especially an atten=

tive man, who made many questions, attracted my notice

After having

visited me repeatedly he told me, that he had considered all he had

heard and found, that it was true and good ; but, said he, I ecanuout

comprehend how you can commit such a sin as to kill and eat animals,

I directed his attention to the ditference between the various degrees

of life in nature ; and that not that which entered into the month was

pollating man, but that which came from the heart.

After corsidering

again for a time he said.

The people of this country are indeed a bad

race, for if any one eats meat it must be sin, yet they are not ashamed

At Kallegadigee, I had a number of simple hearers, but a disputa-

tious Vishnu Brahmin tried to disturb, and he found between Krishuu

.

9

and Christ not only a similarity in their names, but also in their offices

for, said he, Christ promised to be with his own always, and Krishna

has been at one and the same time with all his sixteen thousand milk

women.

At Dasty koppa I heard a dispute going on, among those

who had just heard me, and was pleased by the remarks an old man

made, for he zealously defended, that all men were alike with regard

to caste, and sinners before God: and that, should they ever inherit

eternal salvation they must have a saviour to atone for them.

This

encouraged me to hope, that the word spoken does not always fall on

stony ground.

At Bullawundra I had among my hearers a Lingite

merchant, who had come with the Dessai of the place, when speaking

on the distinction of caste the merchant remarked yes, Garuda, by

being Vishnus vehicle, is yet holy to the Brahmins tho’ he feeds upon

carcases and the refuse of all castes ; so if a low caste is once in your,

or Government employ, none, not even the Brahmins, are afraid of

being polluted by him, and sit together on the same mat ; since you

are like gods even a pariah is no more unclean thro’ your presence.

At Hullgerry I lodged in a Davana’s temple and had a good many hea -

rers.,

The Poojaree, a simple man, after he had dressed the idol came

and invited me to see, whether I did not like the appearance of it.

I

told him, God could have no pleasure in such things, that, since he

was a spirit, he required a spiritual service, which, however, was be-

yond his comprehension,

On his affirming, that God must dwell in

man, since without this man would have no desire for him, I replied,

aa

as unlikely it w

LA.B;

that a king would dwell with pigs, so unlikely was

it, that God would make His abode in the heart of an unconverted

sinn

er

Lo2 O

To prove, that without God there existed nothing, and that

B

ince the living soul existed, and that consequently God must dwell in

it, an old man brought a little looking glass and kept a stone before

it, saying, that as the reflection was nothing, so in this world all was

deceit and delusion wherever God did not dwell.

On asking him whe-

ther the weaver was existing in the clothes he had on, he replied with

a laugh, how can that be; upon which I endeavoured to shew him the

difference between the Creator and the creature; and that God was

invisible, but by the visible things he had created we might know his

At

Eternal power and Godhead, and glorify and worship him aright.

Hully koppa, where, among a large number, some seemed to listen

with interest; one affirmed, we Hindoos have to bear the sin of Govern-

ment : for since the English have come to this Country, poverty, sick-

T e P T e o 7

31

ness, and misery have greatly increased among us.

I told them, that

each man had to bear his own iniquity and if it was so, as he said, it

was in consequence, that they despised the truths of the word of God

which had been proclaimed to them since the English had taken pos-

session of the country ; and that, therefore, they should acknowledge

the finger of God in this matter, turn from dumb idols unto the true

and living God. Another said kow can I help it if 1 have to bear the

sins of former births ; but seemed to be satisfied when I told him, that

their doctrine of Metempsychosis was an idle dream, since this would

prove God to be a fickle being like ourselves.

Another sought to ri-

dicule, saying, if Christ was man, he could not be born without a father

Whom I

and if he was God he could never have died on the cross.

answered, that if he had once eyes to see, and ears to hear, he might

be able to comprehend something of this mystery.

While at Hully

hall I visited an idol feast that was held in a village a few miles off, and

after I had preached to them a Brahmin observed, do not get tired of

preaching to us, for many Brahmins have already got an insight into

the falsity and absurdity of our religious observances, and only keep it

up because they are afraid of losing their authority. A jain remarked,

that tho’ they might have knowledge, yet the iron fate that was pending

over them could not be resisted, and, therefore, they would not abandon

their present way,

I told him, that it was the will of God that all

should come to the knowledge of the truth, and that consequently

Christ had died to procure for us the means of reconciliation with God.

He meant, it was a hard thing to know the will of God, since every

one considered his religion the true one

1 told him if I would speak

to you of apples and pears of my native country, you would not know

what I meant, until I was able to shew and let you taste them ; and su

it is with the doctrine of Christ, you will not know, whether it be of

God or of men until you learn to do the will of God, and that which is

good and right,

In Hully hall itself, when speaking in a shop to about

30 men, I was greatly pained by hearing an old man of about 80,

use most indecent expressions.

Another of them,

to hold the doc-

trine of the cross in ridicule, bound two sticks together in the shape of

a cross and held it up saying, here is your God! I told them, they

shewed plainly what manner of spirit they were of ; spoke to them of

the difference between protestant and catholic christians, and their

sinfulness in ridiculing before they rightly understood our religion,

On sunday I went to the Roman Catholic Chapel at that place, hoping

to find it filled, found it, however. quite empty, as they all had gone to

the market,

After much trouble I succeeded at last in collecting 4 of

32

them, to whom I read and explained the 4th chapter of Hebrews, but

could make little impression upon them.

A formal affirmative was

all T could get from them.

The afternoon of that day I spent in

the house of a nice young man of portuguese descent, who with his fa-

mily rejoiced me greatly by their hunger and thirst for the truth. When

preaching in the village Benasy to a goodly number, one said ; as all

the streams and rivers flow into the same sea, so the creed of the dif-

m

ferent for

centre in one God ; one calls him Bussawa, the 2nd Linga,

the 3rd Hanamanta and so on.

Another said, if we are to care little

about earthly goods, why did you English take away our country for

the sole object of making money ? I told him, that on account of for-

saking the true and living God, God left them without a king or a

prince of their own ; and that it was the true God whom we worship-

ped, who gave the kingdoms of the earth to whomsoever he pleased.

In the large village Beedee I could for some time not get

any hearers,

ne

110

to give meat to eat

since a rumour had got abroad, that I had cor

and spoil their caste, but had a willing audience, as soon as they found

that they were deceived.

One of the brahmins who had collected said,

that they the brahmins, deserved a higher and better rank among the

rest, because they were twice born; which gave me an opportuaity of

Another old brahmin

speaking to them of the new birth in Christ

made repeatedly the objection, if Christ does not visibly appear to his

believers, it is vain to believe in him, and besides, what help can you

expect of one who was liable to death like other men. On my explain-

ing to him, that he gave his life willingly as a ransom for our sins, he

My answer was,

asked, whether T had received forgiveness of my sins.

by the grace of Christ I could answer him in the affirmative ; he with

a contemptuous smile, “if you are free from sin why do you say, that

none can do meritorious acts ? for by your being reconciled your works

should be sinless, and therefore propitiatory for others.

I explained

to him, that there was but one mediator between God and men, and

that none could by any means redeem his brother, ner

give to God a

ransom for him.

Well he said if you are sinners like ourselves, why

do you come and preach to us ? It is, said I, that you might know your

illing to heal and bless

sinful state, and the physician who is able and ‘w

you. At Kittoor, where the Gospel has already been preached often

I had a large number of hearers, and by their various questions and

objections, not, however, by any change of mind they showed, that they

became more familiar with the truths of the word of God. Would that

Our congregation consists still of Isaae, formerly mentioned, and

Juan formerly a Roman Catholic, Our divine services were attended

besides by two Roman Catholics and heathen servants.

We are

happy to say, that Isaac has behaved, during the last year, much

more in accordance with his high calling as a Christian.

He had a

hard trial to undergo, having lately become affected by leprosy he was

disappointed in his hopes of getting married ; but he bore this affliction

with much meekuess

When I once asked him as to his feelings re-

garding this trial, his reply was

“It is from the Lord who gives me

but to taste a small portion of the fruit of my former sins, on account

of which I have merited so much,”

When on another accasion I was

obliged to reprove him on account of his idleness telling him, that since

I had spoken so often ineffectually T must now leave him to himself,

not wishing to interfere any more with him, I found him much moved;

he afterwards came to me in tears sayin

to 2]

o, when a child makes faults

his father will punish him for it, but you told me you would leave me

to myse‘if, how then can I get wiser or better ? you must remember,

for how long a time I lived in ignorance and sin, and it is only a few

years since the Lord has been pleased to shew me the light of his Gos-

pel ; therefore please to have patience, and do not get tired to reprove

and punish me,

This candid confession pleased me much, as I saw

evident tokens in it of his being a child of God.

From among the heathea population we have had very few attendants

at our divine service, those who used formerly to attend left it off en-

tirely.

It seems, that the more the people become acquainted with the

word of God, the more they shut their ears against it ; whether from

S —

indifference or fear is hard to tell,

Schools,

The number of these has during the last year come down

from 12 to 8. A Boy’s school, in connection with one for grown up per-

m——

sons, I was obliged to give up on account of the schoolmaster’s immo-

ral conduct, which he refused to forsake in spite of many admonitions;

and has since been not recommenced for want of a.proper schoolmasters

Another adult school I discontinued on account of the very small, and

at the same time irregular attendance; the same was the case with a

school in an adjacent village,

The number of schools still in existence

are 5 for Boys, and 3 for Girls.

Of the former there are three in

e —————

Hoobly itself, attended by from 70 to 80 boys in each, and 2 in near

villages of, from 25 to 40 boys.

About a fourth part of the whole

number are able to read, commit to memory portions of the Old and

New Testaments, or tracts.

How much of the good seed sown among

them has fallen on good or stony soils we cannot tell, but fear compa-

ratively a small portion on the former,

51

We have good reason to hope

that by the means of the boys, and

the schools in general, the contents of the truth of God are spread

amongst the people.

We pray to the Lord, that it may work as a lea

ven amongst the population at large,

There are some promising cha-

weters among them, but knowing tl

have committed a few tracts to memory

It requires much patienc

to go on perseveringly in this branch of our labour.

The irregularity

with which they are attended proves to be a great disadvantage, and

since the visiting of the school is left entirely to the choice of the girls

themselves, we have no prospect of having the evil soon removed and

when they have acquired a little of the first rudiments they consider it

a superfluous task to visit school any more, so when a few weeks ago

I asked a girl the reason for absentine herself

not directly opposed, but who take it more easy ; thus for instance

when I spoke to a man telling him, that I had now come for some

years to his village, and had pointed out to him the way of salvation

yet without any apparent effect, he replied to me, when an artist has

to make from a shapeless stone an image he will not finish it with one

single stroke, and that is just the case with our own hearts.

Again it

happened, that when I was surrounded by a listening crowd, one of

their priests would sneak in and whisper, that they should not attend

to my words, but leave me. Not seldom they interrupt us with trifling

and absurd questions and assertions,

So I was told by a man in the

course of a lively conversation, our priests are after all still greater than

you; for you only know how man may be saved, but our priests show

means for.the salvation of ants and every living creature.

The spiri-

tual darkness which envelops these poor idolators, and the perverted

ideas they have of God’s nature are really awful, and none, but those

who labour among them, can have some faint conception of it.

When

the other evening, in the course of conversation, a man had explained

to me his system of philosophy, such as I had never heard before, and

when I was going to shew him the utter absurdity of it, pointing out

to him the true relation of man to God; he said in reply no man can

The visitors

at the mission ho

na

1

uo

Q

e were during the last year not so

37

numerous as formerly, and those who come were induced more by

curiosity, than any thing else.

Among the visitors I had also some of

a religious sect lately sprung up in our neighbourhood, who profess to

have given up Hindoo idolatry, and to believe the tenets of Christia-

nity,

I would mention a singular case, which occurred some weeks

ago.

Three men belonging to it, a Carpenter, a Lingaite, and a Mus-

sulman came one evening to the Mission house ; among the various

questions T made, I enquired also after their caste, and received this

answer; your caste and ours is the same, we also believe in Jesus

Christ.

When I expressed my doubts of the truth of their statement,

and pointing to the carpenter as wearing still his sacred thread, and to

the Lingaite carrying still his Linga, the carpenter exclaimed, this

sacred thread is nothing but a lie, shall I tear it in pieces? Before I

had time to answer he had torn it, and thrown it {o the ground. On

telling him, that this act did not make him a Christian, he replied,

did not Jesus commaud, that should any man smite thee on thy right

cheek, turn to him the other also ? I was going to explain to him the

meaning of this, when he, repeating these words of our Lord again

began to beat both his cheeks in a fearful manner, that at last the by

standers were obliged to prevent him from doing it any longer. I could

not make out the reason for his doing it, but most likely he wanted to

show, how strictly he was fulfilling the commandments of our Saviour.

On taking my leave from them that evening, they promised to pay me

another visit, and contrary to my expectation, they made their appear-

ance again next morning.

While I was reading to them appropriate

passages from the New Testament, and endeavouring to esplain to

them the truths of the Gospel, I saw to my surprise, while I was read-

ing the description of the last judgment by our Lord, Matthew 25, 31

to 46, that tears were trickling down the face of the Carpenter ; by

further conversation, however I found, that these were not tears of

repentance, but their aim by granting so ready an acquiescence was to

get me over to their persuasion.

I learned namely on further enquiry,

that their priest, a respectable but rather an ambitious man, had been

led, by the reading of the New Testament and other religious tracts re-

]

ceived from us, to the idea, that he was himself an incarnation of Jesus

Christ ; and these his disciples showed much zeal in maki

for him.

Though the last year has been a very eventful one, and one in which

we have experienced great mercies from the Lord, yet not of such a

of the Mission here has quietly proceeded, of which we beg to give a

short outline.

At posteript in our last report contaired the painful in-

telligence of the death of our dear Br, Hall. In December last we had

the pleasure tc welcome our dear Br. Kies, who was sent out by our

society to fill the place of the dear departed. He has already mastered

the greatest difficulties of the Canarese language, begins now to assist

us in our schools, and will soon be able to engage himself fully in the

work of evangelization in and around Bettigherry.

Mrs. Hiller’s girl’s schools at Guduck and Bettigherry contain the

same number of scholars as formerly, 18 to 20 in each, They read,

write, cast accounts, and commit passages of scripture to memory ; the

progress they make, we are happy to say, is very satisfactory.

They

come twice a week to Mrs. Hiller to be instructed in needle work, and

show on the whole much attachment to us.

We have at present two

boys® schools, one at Guduck numbering 40 boys, and one at Bettigherry

of 60. We regret to say, that the boys do not geaerally attend school

long enough to admit of our instructing them in more than the usual

rudiments, and leave us at a time, when we could have hoped to have

been of more essential help to them.

Their parents having no other

ideas, but to bring them up to follow their own trades, take them to

assist in their several occupations, as soon as they have acquired some

proficiency in reading and writing. We intend to establish more schools,

and have great inducements to do so, as soon as we can meet with

suitable schoolmasters; for in our estimation it is much betier to have

no school, than an unprincipled man for a teacher. We have now three

youths, trained up by us with a view to employ them as schoolmasters,

an@ we hope ere long to succeed in getting others of the same description

In our last report we mentioned, that we had no individual of whom

39

we could hope that a decided change of heart had taken place, and

the same is still the case ; though from the general feeling and conduct

of the people which is perceptibly improviag, we are encouraged to

Our

hope, that our labour will eventually be crowned with success,.

last years experience has by many a pleasing incident convinced us,

that there are many people here who secretly wish, or at least would

prefer a religious change for the better ; but wait for one to set the

example.

If once a beginning of a congregation was made, this would

be a signal for many to bid farewell to their idols and traditionary

observances ; in the mean time we go on and wait the Lords good

time, praying Him, to prepare them and the way for their emancipation.

For several months some met regularly with our own people and our

first class school boys for divine service on Sunday mornings who

One of our schoolmasters, however, to

scemed very eager after truth,

whom we gave too good a testimony in our last report, proved not only

to be a hypocrite himself, but was the cause of drawing 5 or 6 others

of them away with him,

To express our feelings regarding the state of the Mission here we

would use the simile of a fruit tree, which we feel best suited to embody

our ideas, A tree, we observe, generally shakes off its worm eaten and

rotten fruit, while the good ones, requiring longer time for ripening,

remain on it.

We may think it a pity, that so much fruit is lost, yet

From our fruit tree

on those that remain our chief hopes are fixed.

at Bettigherry many apparently nice and promising fruits have fallen

off, and though the relapses are heart rending, and scarcely conceivable

by any one, who has not experienced something of the kind, still we

will not be discouraged ; but by the grace of our Lord, and in humble

/

dependance on Him will go on with his work as long as it pleases Him.

A tree full of fruit is still before us, and we cherish the hope, that

some of them at least will prove good to our joy, and to the glory of

the Lord. We will not be disheartened by disappointments ; but con-

strained by the love of Christ, and the pity we feel for the misery of

these poor erring people around us, use every means within our power

0

to promote their temporal and eternal good.

MALSAMUDR A,

Mr. G. Stanger.

The occurrences and losses which be fell this station during the last

year powerfully reminded us, ¢ That the Lord’s ways are not our

29

ways, nor His thoughts our thoughts.

We had been happily engaged

in His work, when He in his wisdom saw fit to make a rent in the

bond of love that encircled us.

Yet though he seems at times ready

to destroy, and to pull down what has been built up ; we know that

He, as the wise master builder, will finish what He has begun and, in

spite of the many oppositions, the head stone shall yet be brought forth

with shoatings of ¢ grace, grace unto it, yet not by might, nor by

power ; but by my spirit saith the Lord.”

And though his dispensa-

tions be mysterious to us, we are assured, that what we know not now,

we shall know hereafter, and praise Him for that He hath done all

things well,

The cholera, that scourge of the Almighty, had been raging for some

time in our vicinity, when at last it made its appearance also in our

Colony and two men were attacked by it, of whom one recovered, and

the other died.

It next entered our own dwelling, and Mrs., Essig was

brought very low by it; her dear husband, who attended her, was the

next victim ; yet his symptoms seemed not, until the last few hours,

to be of such a nature as to cause alarm, and before we were actually

aware of his dangerous state we were called upon to witness his sudden

and unexpected departure,

On the first of May he was slightly indis-

posed, had four hours good rest, however, that night, and the dawn of

its flicht to the everlasting regions; but the suddenness of the shock

was to us most severe, and had almost proved fatal to his bereaved and

much weakened widow.

The Lord, however, in His great mercy sup-

ported her with His strong help and consolations, and preserved her to

us and His work.

The number of natives, that assembled around the

grave of our dear brother at his burial was very considerable, whom

Br. Hiller addressed shewing them, that the death of a Christian had

nothing fearful in itself, that it was but a removal to his eternal home,

where we hope to find him again with the Lord ; and exhorted them

!

to seek the Lord, while He may be found.

Our lamented Brother was

much beloved by the natives on account of his many amiable qualities,

and faithful in dispensing the word of truth which we hope will yet

bear fruit.

During the last two months while sickness was raging al]

around, he was constantly out proclaiming the word of life, often saying

urtemburg, entered the Missionary Institution at

Basle in 183

and was sent out as a N issionary to this Cﬂuntry in

1838. He laboured first above a vear at Mangalore, then for 2 years

and ten months at Dharwar, and was afterwards by the desire of our

From the settlers,

one family left me during the year, he was a washerman from Bentoor,

belonging to the oft mentioned kalignanas; had resided here for about

3 years, during which he constantly heard the word of life, but appa-

rently more as a savour of death unto death, than otherwise.

Before

his departure I exhorted him once more to remember what he was about

before it was too late, but he stopped his ears and wanted to begone.

It is a remarkable fact, that that village Bentoor, where the Gospel had

been heard so much, has been lately visited awfully by cholera, about

a hundred and fifty persons were swept away by it within 3 weeks in

this comparatively small village.

An old man, a weaver, without a

family, is the only one that was received during the year; he attends

divine service, goes on in his quiet way, and seems content, Many among

these settlers, who have heard the word of truth so often go on in

their sleep of sin ; but others on the contrary begin to open their eyes

and ask after the Lord God who saves from death.

They have, how-

ever, not yet decision enough to leave all and follow Christ, yet I trust

that the Lord, who gave them so far a willing heart will finish what

he has begun to his own glory.

There were a number who-applied for

being received into the colony. but as their intention was more towards

the loaves and fishes than any thing else I denied their request.

As I was left quite alone, I could not go to any distance with the

kS

message of peace and reconciliation, but was confined to the neighbour-

hood. My invitation to come to the great supper of the Lord, and my

The public preaching among the Heathen has been carried on more

effectively during the past year, and I pray, t'hat by God’s grace it may

be done to a greater extent each year.

Last year we visited for the first time the heathen festival at Payawur;

times wonderfully strengthened to find so many ready listeners from

among the assembled heathen, who received the word of God with

great joy ; and this was for us a pledge, that our labour 'will in due

time bring forth fruit unto the praise and glory of God,

Yea, indeed,

we are full of joy, hope and thanksgiving in Christ Jesus.

QOur work

is a sure one in Him, because it is God, who has sent us, the God of

all mercies, who willeth not the death of sinner, but commands all to

repent and believe in His only begotten Son for pardon of sin and

everlasting life.

During the present year we were allowed again to be present at the

heathen festival at Payawur, from the 15th to the 21st of February,

1846.

We found this time far less people than formerly, which was

chiefly owing to the prevalence of cholera.

We had grace to preach

the word of God to crowds, who listened quietly. Here also the youth

Paul (see last year’s report ¢ out station Chirukal ”) for the first time

was privileged to witness of the love of God, as it is in Jesus, to this

people, and Timothy, Jacob, John and Joseph had ample opportunity

to do the same.

The visitors in our abode were, in consequence of the smallness of the

il

46

assemblage less this time, and of the nice men, whom I had formerly

the pleasure to see, 1 saw not one, but other promising men paid us a

visit.

I could not distribute so many books this year as I desired, of

which I am rather sorry, the more so, as our worthy Bible Society at

Madras has cheered my heart with a very liberal grant of portions of

Scripture.

I had with me about a thousand books of these, besides

tracts in the Malayalim language.

I was never before so rich in this

precious treasure, thanks be to our gracious God; aad He, who gave,

will soon shew a way for their distribution, Amen.

Many of the people are sorry, that they are disturbed 'in their dan-

gerous security ; some are very hostile, and again others listen to the

word patiently, and say yes to all, - The word of God, however. will

make its way to the souls of men, and accomplish that which He pleases.

Early every morning aud evening we repaired to our posts to announce

the glad tidings of the Gospel, and during the day time we received

those who came to visit us,

thousands ; and to Him be glory and praise, that it has pleased Him

to make use of us as His messengers for another year. The word does

now run, who shall stop it? and will bring forth fruit in due season,

I humbly recommend this our people to the fervent prayer of all our

mission Friends.

The Lord saw fit to visit our people along the coast, particularly the

Mapilas and Fishermen, with the cholera for the last few months.

At Tuhy, the Fisher village, cholera was raging from about the Ist

to the 25th of February, and from 50 to 60 adults died, beside children,

This year they accepted our assistance which last year they refused,

whereby we ourselves almost sank under the burden.

cholera, and on the 6th I had him brought to my abode.

and as nobody will earry such corpses, I ordered that night a grave

to be made for her, and in the morning early sent my own people to

carry her remains to the place of rest; but contrary to all expectation

she was still alive, and continued to do well under our great care. On

the 8th, at 9 o’Clock in the evening, our beloved Eunike fell sick, and

at 12 o’Clock that night I went to see her, she received me with open

hope, gave her medicine, and remained with her till 4 o’Clock the next

morning, but during that time she sank rapidly.

On the 9th I asked

her several times, Child dost thou believe in the Lord Jesus? Where-

upon she always laid her hand upon her breast, raised her body to a

sitting posture and replied bowing with a loud ¢

es.” I prayed with

her, but she told me afterwards, that owing to the severity of the sick-

ness she could not attend. Early on the morning of the 10th this dear

soul fell asleep, a sacrifice to her labour of love in attending upon the

other sick woman, and in the evening we buried her in the grave, made

for Wiswasee,

Next Patros felt ill, and I feared much for him, but

the Lord in mercy spared him to me.

A blind Fisher youth, by name

Kolawen, who was much with us and believed in his heart, fell sick,

but I was not allowed by his relatives to see him.

He died while we

were at the Payawur Festival. I deeply regretted this, but still expect

to meet him in heaven.

A black Jew of Cochin, who lived near me,

also died of it; he shewed great confidence toward us, sent for me, and

'requested me to take charge of his two children, a boy of about 18,

and a girl about 16 years.

The latter soon after ran away, and we

could hear nothing more of her ; she seemed to be of dissipated habits.

The boy, Mordecai, is still with us.

To the father we gave medicine,

prayed often with him, and confirmed him in his belief of Jesus being

This was a doleful time, and the medicine we administered

seemed to be of no avail, At 6 o’Clock in the evening there was not

a man to be seen in the streets, all was dead silence, except now and

then a muttering prayer, or the repeating of the name of ¢ Rama,

Rama.”

A nice school boy 7 years of age, died also ; he said, that he

believed in Jesus, and desired, that prayer should be offered up to God

for him in our house, which was done.

While sick his mother wished

48

to deliver him up to my charge.

Another little boy, to whom I ad-

ministered medicine died likewise. I was just going to enquire how he

did, when lo! they carried him out of the house a corpse, still warm,

they put him down upon a small plank, pat a pot of cold water over him,

murmured something against me, and then carried him away in great

haste. A girl of about 10 years, after T had given her some medicine,

brought up a large worm, and when I came next morning the poor girl

was no more : her mother was quite inconsolable for her loss ! Though

this sickness was all around, and the air was almost death like, yet our

faithful Lord allowed it not to enter into our own house, for which is

Holy Name be humbly adored ; when the cholera broke out at Tahy, I

comforted my people with the words of the 34th Psalm 7th verse. The

angel of the Lord encampeth round about them that fear him, and de-

livereth them.

And He was pleased not to put us to shame,.

Wis-

wasee, the woman above mentioned, is still alive and getting strong

again, but will it be believed ? she will now have nothing more to do

with us.

We took her after the attack to our house, and did all we

could for her; but while we were on a preaching excursion she left us

On our return we sent for her and spoke to her, she listened attentive-

ly ; but has since grown very hostile, and will have nothing more to do

with us,

She pretends to know nothing about her baptism, and speaks

much against the late dear Eunike and Patros, who attended her assi-

duously in her illness. . She says, I should have liked to die in com-

munion with you, but in life I will have nothing to do with you. This

woman is a true picture of all men by nature, for when dying, we all

desire to have a Saviour, but when in health and strength we care little

about Him ; and are more inclined to do our own will, than keep His

holy commandments.

We still follow her with our prayers, and may

the Lord open her eyes in due time.

At Tahy the word of God was much preached, but the people are

wedded to their sins, and know not what to do; some are friendly

toward us, others opposed; about three weeks before the cholera appear-

ed, they had an idol feast, and sat before the idol in the midst of the

village.

I approached and addressed them thus, It is now three years,

that I preach unto you Jesus the Saviour, the Resurrection, and the

Life, both publicly, and from house to house, and still you sit here

a decrease, It is now more than a year since Mrs, Gundert was ailing,

and her sufferings so much increased during the last three months as

obliged- her, nearly the whele of that time, to keep her bed, and no

other means were left for the recovery of her health but a voyage to

Europe,

As Br. Gundert’s health was likewise beginning to fail they

both left us with their four children on the 21st November last year.

The accounts, however, we have had of them since their departure give

us reason to hope, that they will soon be so far restored in health as

again to lay the hand to the plough in promoting the glorious work of

reconciliation between God and man.

With some of the members we had during the past. year heavy trials

to sustain,

On the 26th May we were greatly astounded by the news,

that Baker and Theodore, the two young men of whom we could report

with so much pleasure last ‘year, along with Theophil and Muttoren,

knew of no reason for their taking this step ; but Br. C, Miiller soon

informed us to our great grief, that they had repaired to the chief mos-

que of the town in order to become Mapillas.

Br. Miller went imme -

diately to enquire whether they had taken this step of their own free

and returned to us.

From the detailed account he gave us of the whole

affair it would appear, that not Baker, the former Mapilla, as we had

suspected, but that Theodore had been the chief instigator of this pro-

Theodore, by his

ject.

Theophil is now with our friends at Calicat,

riotous and profligate life, is fast hastening the destruction of soul and

body, while Baker wanders about without rest or peace, asa living

witness to the truth, that the Lord will not suffer His holy name to be

blasphemed. But blessed be the Lord, we have not only to relate of

trials, but also of happy results, and the Lord has shewn us in different

53

ways, that he still acknowledges our work as His.

On the 23rd of

March last we had the pleasure to admit by baptism into His Church

the schoolmaster of the fisher village, mentioned m our last report,

along with a teacher of the younger boys of the Institution.

The first,

named Cornelius, has lost his school by this step, the other, Shaddeus,

is still employed in the same way, Although we cannot speak of their

walk as being exemplary, yet on the whole we have not much cause of

complaint., Another of our old candidates, Cannerin, of the Tier caste;

was baptised omthe 1st of January, called Aaron; he has not much

knowledge, but we think him sincere, he feels himself to be a sinner,

and loves Him whose blood cleanseth from all sin.

In last January

Br. C. Muller baptised four inmates of the poor hospital, two men and

two women, one of the men, Abel, has since died in the faith of the

Saviour; the other three, John, Mary, and Christina are going on well,

sickly in body, but seeking the Physician of their souls.

We have at

present 5 candidates for baptism, to one of whom the ordinance will

soon be administered.

The holy sacrament was with a few exceptions

Boys’ Institution.

By the apostacy above related this institution, as may necessarily be

expected was in some degree affected ; but we can say, that some of

the older boys expressed sorrow of heart on the occasion, prayed for

1

the poor apostates, and were led to think more seriously on their own

real state,

The number of boys at present in the Institution amounts

to 37, three more than last year, Those that left it are Theophil, Mark,

now a Teacher of the younger boys, and married to Milea one of our

d

boarding girls :

Hassen and Tsharen, who for lack of talents, are

employed in the printing establishment, and Warnden in the same as a

Malayalim writer,

Admitted were 8 boys of different cast and colors,

varying from 6 Lo 14 years of age,

The new comers are of a better

d

caste than most of our old boys, and we have, therefore, more reason

pe

to hope, that they will make greater proficiency in knowledge; since

our last report we were enabled to baptize 5 of them, out of which

number one has died of consumption, From among the whole number

we have two communicants, Nathanael, and Assirwadem.

Concerning the progress of the boys we cannot say as yet much, they

are slow of comprehension, yet we trust they make some advances.

In the meanwhile we endeavour to store their heads with knowledge

and if that once finds the way to their hearts, it will bring forth fruit

and amply repay all our labours,

Girls’ Institution.

More still, than that of the boys, has this institutim‘ suffered by the

backsliding above mentioned, as Baker and Theodore, were married to

two of the girls, Susan and Rachel, the latter also having become a

mother.

They are both the objects of our sympathy and care, and

likewise that of our joy; since we can testify of them both, that they

are sincere and walk in the fear of the Lord, patiently bearing the cross

this was, that in consequence of a school for slaves being established

children, petitioned the Collector to close this hated school ; but since

they could not obtain their end with him, they knew nobody else on

whom to show their

Some respectable man

went from house to house taking a promise from the parents, that they

39

would no longer send their children to our schools. Their annoyance,

however, soon past over, and now our schools are better attended than

before.

The school in the Fisher village, which at one time had assu-

med such a promising character, became, by the baptism of Cornelius,

the schoolmaster, quite forsaken, except by a few Roman Catholics.

On the other hand we can add, that we have been enabled to establish

three new schools at Nattagherry, about fifteen miles south of this, one

reading, writing, cas-

ting accounts; and commit Catechisms to memory.

Were it not, that

their continuing in school was so short and uncertain, we should like

to instruct them in Geography and other useful knowledge ; but since

they leave us as soon as they acquire some little facility in the rudi-

ments, we chiefly endeavour to instill into their minds the truths of the

word of God, .The schools are chiefly the places where we preach to

the adults, as these usually resort thither whenever the Missionary

visits the schools ; and we gladly avail ourselves of these opportunities,

as we are obliged to seek our congregation as yet in the streets or

wherever persons may be assembled together.

The day schosl for Girls, under the care of Mrs, Ch, Miller, con-

tinues the same and contains the same number of children ; they are

chiefly Roman Catholics and consequently averse to the reading of the

Bible.

The eider of them was married in July last to a protestant

soldier at Cannanore, who is a constant attendant on Br. Hebich’s mi-

nistry.

A day school for Hindoo girls has been commenced in the native

town, a respectable Tiar being the schoolmaster, and we are happy to

say, is beyond expectation prospering; the average attendance a-

mounting to 35.

On account of Mrs. Miiller’s continual indisposition it cannot have

the constant female superintendence so desirable, but some of the girls

come from time to time to the house to be instructed by her in needle

work ; yet, because of the prejudices of the parents, the attendance is

}

very irregular,

Br. C. Miiller, however, frequently visits this school.

Besides the regular visits to our three outstations, Anjarkandy,

Chombala and Nattagherry, some short tours have been made for the

Catechist Ananden.

We can say of the members of this congregation, that on the whole

they are going on well, not denying, that some things have happened,

especially family quarrels, that caused us grief; but still we rejoice,

that notwithstanding all their imperfections the Lord has his work among

these people.

One of the principal members, mentioned in our last

report as having been excommunicated, continued to go on impenitently

in the hardness of his heart, till at last he was publicly punished by the

authorities for his misconduct,

He seems now to be much humbled,

and has begged very earnestly for re-admittance, but it will be some

time ere we can trust his professions.

Anothe r, Simon, has been excommunicated on account of drunken-

ness.,

The rest go on pretty well, yet do they from time to time need

This place, mentioned in our last report as being about to be enter-

God been established, and borne frait to the Glory of His name. Our

faithful catechist, along with Paul the first fruit of that place, are un-

wearied in their exertions to proclaim the doctrine of the cross in the

whole neighbourhood, and are not ashamed to bear the reproach of

of our labours has, though it must be considered an unpleasant task

its various advantages, for we are reminded of various omissions, and

which is calculated to humble us in the dust ; but then again we meet

also with innumerable mercies from the hand of the Lord to encourage

and strengthen our hands for doing that which he has bidden us to

do.

Besides, our Christian friends who support us with their prayers

h

and gifts, have a right to ask us as to the result of our labours; to

them we must answer in the parable of the sower, that some of the

them of his mission and had to reprove them for the dulness and slow-

ness of their heart to believe all that had been spoken and written con-

cerning Him? And would it not betray want of humility to desire to

have it better than the Lord himself ? We are often tempted to expect

1

too much of the Hindoos in genera

b

and native christians in particu-

lar, yet we should remember, that we have been trained up from our

very yoz_ith in the nurture and admonition of the word of God, and after

all, how much has the divine mercy and long suffering of God still to

bear with us!

They were born and brought up under the influence of

gross and heathenish superstition, have to combat with many perverted

inbred principles, of which we have scarcely any conception; and

should this not induce us to forbearance towards them, and more

fervent intercession with the Lord for them ? yea we do resolve by the

race of the Lord to continue in this our duty towards God, and our

benighted fellow sinners; we will not despise the day of small things.

The Lord has commenced to gather a few first fruits as his inheritance

from among this people; we take it as a pledge of still greater things

to come, being assured, that the idols of India must fall, and with it,

self-love, pride, and indifference all be brought low, and the Lord

alone be exalted in that day.

There came others who applied for being received, and though they

expressed their ready consent as to the truth of the word of God,

it

was their chief object to get a livelihood from the Mission, and we

were 1n consequence obliged to dismiss them with an exhortation to

repentance

not, thers might be some also of the character of the spiritual poor to

whom the Gospel is preached.

that those sent away

in this way find afterwards employment with a

rich Mapilla merchant,

and from a kind of acknos wledgment for the relief thus obtained, be-

come converts of the false prophet.

Had the mission the means to

give such persons some useful employment, as for instance, work in a

plantation, or so, we are inclined to believe, that it would be attended

with blessings to them.

Such an undertaking, however

cannot be

ade by a missionary society, but we should greatly rejoice if some

Christian friends would give this idea their serious consideration, and

thereby further not merely civilization, but the establishment of Christ’s

Kingdom

in India.

A colony of this kind must of course rest on

Christian principles, and none be admitted but those who are willing

to be instructed in, and to walk according to the precepts of the word

of God

We ar

glad to state, that Theophil the youth mentioned in the

Tellicherry report since his arrival here with his mother, continues to

walk steadily, and his conduct gives us satisfaction.

ways ; but since this caste monster has set his face like a flint, ~our

duty towards the Lord, and towards the congregation, collected from

among the heathen, required us even at the hazard of a disruption to

put a stop to it,

We explained to them privately and openly, that a

body of christians ought to be swayed by heart-felt brotherly love

to each other, and that caste, that great barrier to spiritual unity, stood

in its way ; that it was expressly against the will of Christ, who prayed

that His disciples might be one among themselves, as He and His

Father were one; that as'we desired to walk according to the injunc-

tions of the scriptures, we could not countenance their caste distinc-

tions, as then our assembly would be like a medley of Jehovah’s and

Baal’s worshippers: and that consequently, if they wished to attend

our divine services, nothing of their caste prejudices should find place.

This was asking too much, according to their ideas, and since they

deeply grieved at the step they took, but the will of the Lord in this

matter was too plain to be misunderstood. In a direct way we can now

of course not do any thing for them, but our prayers, that the Lord

would enlighten and deliver them, follow them.

These caste distinc=

tions in India are indeed a radical evil, and may the Lord give grace

and strength to all those of our brethren, who have still to lament over

1t, to persecute it, and to give it no peace, until it is banished from

within the pale of Christ’s Church.

By the arrival of Mrs. Fritz a new branch of Missionary labour has

been commenced, which until now we had it not in our power to pro-

secute, that is, the instruction of females.

This boarding school

was opened with seven girls, and within a short time 6 more were added,

80 that it numbers now 18. The Lord grant his blessing to teacher and

children, and make it to prosper.

Every Saturday a number of poor, on an average aboat 150, assem-

ble to receive the charity of the residents, when the word of God is

preached to them, by one of our Catechists,

It is a sad spectacle to

See so many cripples, blind, and leprous; but yet more so to behold

their awful ignorance, and utter indifference about their eternal welfare..

The words of exhortation are received with coldness, and the reply

often is, * this is . my destiny what can I do;” still we go on hoping

and praying, that the Lord would open the hearts of some of them and

draw them unto Him.

With regard to the Nayadis Establishment at Cotacal, we are are glad

to be able to say, that there has been a progressive tho’ a slow improve-

ment in it,

Some of the children are now able to read, and this small

62

beginning will be sufficient to convince the Natwes around, that they

are mnot those masked Tigers and Hyenas they took them to be, but

beings like themselves, capable of instruction, and mental imprevement.

Though the padcy field, cultivated by the Nayadis, yielded last year a

better crop than formerly, it is still insufficient to support them for the

whole year, and therefore, to gain the point in view (viz) their temporal

and spiritual improvement, we are obliged to make up what is wanting

for their livelihood ; besides having to defray from private resources

the monthly wages of those who superintend the Establishment.

Till

now the Lord has through some of His people graciously provided us

with the required means, so that at the close of this year we can again

We would add, that the care and management of the whole

Establishment now devolves on our Mission, since the Government

connexion with it has ceased.

We avail ourselves of this opportunity

to offer in the name of these poor people, their warmest thanks to the

kind friends who have taken their misery to heart, and feel it their

privilege and duty to ameliorate it. May the Lord’s blessing rest upon

them and theirs, and may they see the fulfilment of the promise, He

Schools. We were enabled during the last year to establish four new

ones (besides the five already in existence in and around Calicut) at

Coilandy, fourteen miles north of this,

The schools at Calicut are on

the whole irregularly attended, since most of our scholars are from the

poorer class, who, whenever an opportunity offers for earning a liveli-

hood, leave the school and their natural sloth added to the great indiffe~

be satisfied, if the boys advance so far that they can read and write

with some fluency; of Geography and History we can scarcely think.

There is moreover in the Malayalim Mission a great want of elementary

school books, and though we have prepared a few in manuscript, we

cannot have them printed, since the expeuse for the same would be

too much for our society, which is already overburdened.

The atten-

of the former, and the labour among them is more promising, as the

boys in country villages are more simple and uncorrupted thau in larger

towns,

They had, however at first a great many prejudices against us

but we are glad to say, that they are now getting more familiar, since

they perceive more of the real nature of our coming among them. These

schools prepare us often the way to visit the parents in their houses,

and speak to them abeut divine things. On the contrary, at such places

where we have no schools, people are apt at our approach to run away,

and hide themselves from fear of being polluted, by coming in contact

with us.

Our work is one of time and patience, yet we know, that we

shall reap in due time, if we faint not; and shall have our hope fulfilled,

in seeing many brought to the knowledge of the Lord.

In looking once more back on the occurrences of last year, we have

much cause to be humbled and ashamed, on account of the many in-

stances of our unfaithfulness and unbelief; yet we desire to throw

ourselves and our work at the feet of Jesus our great High Priest, re-

questing Him to give us grace to be more faithful and diligent in his

vineyard, and to grant, that soon the fulness of the Gentiles may be

brought in, and also Israel be saved.

Conclusion,

While we would once more gratefully acknowledge the goodness of

the Lord, we would at the same time, beg to offer to our kind friends

and supporters our warmest thanks for the liberal aid they have affor-

ded us-

We make no doubt that many of them assist us likewise with

their prayers before a throne of grace.

The Lord let His countenance

shine upon them, and give them that peace, which the world can nei-

ther give, nor take away.

We must repeat again, that our Society

stands greatly in need of funds, and we would solicit afresh the help

of our Indian friends.

We often feel, that we are obliged to make

large demands on their liberality, but as our simple desire is, to lead

souls to the knowledge of the Lord, and to work in love and harmony

with the various bodies of Christ’s church, we trust, the lovers of His

cause will give us their ready support as hitherto.

Let us not be

weary in well doing, for in due season we shall reap if we faint not.

Amen,

The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all.
