B. Native Workers

The year under review closed with 17 Pastors against 18

in 1901, one having been deputed for itinerating work. The

Aty

number of Evangelists is unchanged

e nf

There are now 117 Catechists against 113 in 1901

if the

We are sorry to report the death of two very faithful fellow-

(anara

workers

Paul Sneham, born 1834 and baptised in 1856

has he

served as a Catechist for about 42 years and with full assurance

awrepta

of eternal life departed life at Chowa.— On the 14th June

meatly

there died at Kaity Cat. Jesaja Shanta. This ardent young

0 haye

man was taken away from us in the midst of faithful and

0 hegr

hopeful work amongst his own people, and his loss will be felt

s th

for a long time on the Nilgiris, where men of his stamp of

T §

character are so greatly wanted. He was born in Nerkambe

Dague

in 1868 and was a grandson of Abraham, the first-fruit amongst

he

the Badagas

He was allowed to serve only for 12 years and

leah

leaves a widow with 4 children behind him

Hingy

At Tellicherry, at the beginning of 1902 Rev. Diego

My

Fernandez, a pensioned pastor of our Mission, died. Born in

Tefgeq

1830, he commenced work as a Catechist in 1852, when he was

thunche

consecrated to the service of God by the third Home-Secretary

Mocggq

of our Mission, the Rev. J. JoseNHANS, who was then out here

on a visitation-tour

In 1872 he was ordained

After a

ud, |

service of 24 years he was pensioned in 1896 and spent the

fiy

remaining days of his life at Tellicherry, where he had com-

Songyy

menced his service in 1852

It 1s with pleasure we note that in March 1902 four

8

students of the Nettur-Seminary and in July two students from

Hityg

the Catechists’ School at Kaity passed their examinations and

were consecrated to the service of God.

II. EVANGELISTIC WORK_.

agaist

1

Manifold, as will be shown below, have been the

work, Tt

endeavours to bring the population of our Mission-field within

the influence of the Gospel.

The efforts, as far as extension

01

of the work is concerned, were greatly impeded last year in

bl fellov:

Canara and S. Mahratta by plague. Whether this awful disease

i 16

has been partly instrumental or not in preparing hearts for

1] assuwane

acceptance of the Gospel we should like to know, but opinions

14th Ju

greatly differ on this point. “The hearts of the people do not seem

dent you

to have been turned to the Lord by plague.

Some men like

ithful wl

to hear our opinion on this matter; Mohammedans take it

will be fe‘x'

amiss that Christians, in comparison with them, fared so well.”

s st U

This is the impression of one Missionary in Canara, where

Netknl

plague appeared for the first time this year.

Another worker

i Ao

in the field felt that during these days of uncertainty and

2 yeal\: Hl]t]l

death many looked about for some firmer support than

Hinduism. The oracles of Hinduism were equivocal as to the

"e\," Diego

significance of this occurrence.

We are told that one Bhuta

§ Do :

refused to accept a sacrifice, directing his devotees to the

churches of the Christians, from where the evil was said to

proceed; another oracle was that plague was a punishment of

e-Searel

o 0111

God, the Almighty, and that people should repent and turn to

At !

God. In new fields of labour the vastness of one’s sphere is

l bpem 1l

often simply overwhelming. Such is the feeling of the Mis-

Jad

(o

sionary at Puttur in the Uppinangadi-Taluk, alone with 2

Assistants amongst more than 200,000 souls! The experience

1907 f(lT

i Southern Mahratta is exactly the same. In some parts the

(‘ﬂ

attitude of Hindus is so friendly that, in spite of all fatalism,

On\t'l

plague and famine seem to have effected something, in other

Al

parts fatalism prevailed and the visitations of God seem to

>d ‘ﬂd‘ ;

have passed by without leaving any. traces. How friendly the

relations between Christians and Hindus sometimes are may

ke

Jon

be seen from the fact that a Hindu-family collected money

for

(Rs. 50) in order to enable a poor Christian relative to marry.

In Malabar, with very few exceptions, our Evangelists have

them

been well received.

It 1s characteristic of the estimation in

wth 1

which the Gospel is held that a temple-priest in introducing his

a0

son to the manager of a school said: “Sir, take him and make

£Ames

something better of him than I am!” In some parts of Malabar

e ¢

the Moplas exhibit not only great zeal in making proselytes,

Clrst

which is nothing new, but also in preaching against Christianity.

fnend

Our Hvangelists meet here and there at Hindu festivals with

1 the

Mohammedan counter-preachers. Also two. young Hindus in the

hlst

South entered the lists not so much as champions for Hinduism

Mot ¢

as assailants of Christianity. For this purpose they have also

10 the

started a new paper in Malayalam, styled “the Beacon of

'a‘ king

Malabar”.

Lucus a non lucendo.

oy

The attitude of a good many of our educated Hindus is

1

one which gives rise to great hopes for the future.

Some feel

b gl

really attracted by Christ and His Gospel and seem anxiously

ChrisT.

to wait for something which will in a painless manner disconnect

U

them from their present environments and carry them over to

vy ch

a world, in which their hearts already move.

Our full sympathy

is with these wrestling souls, who really want something

and 1y

(Matth. 19, 21).

“No pains, no gains.”

Others, intellectually

beliye

convinced of the truth, vainly endeavour to escape that painful

s

struggle with “flesh and blood” by sheltering themselves behind

thaf he

excuses and rhetorical artifices, sometimes not conscious of

b it

their being mere sophistries.

Intellectual problems

If they are in

true entrance to the temple of truth and the way leading to

prosely

Christ: John 7, 17; Acts 16, 30.

This attitude of our educated

in the excuse: “We may also obey the teachings of Christ

whilst being Hindus, better than many so-called Christians.”

Most of these excuses, though literally true in their application

to the question at issue, must be pronounced to be self-delusions,

a kind of opiate intended to satisfy for a time the cravings of

immortal souls and to silence the voice of conscience.

However

Findw

it is something, if people acknowledge that Christ must needs

be obeyed; it shows how self-evident is the authority of

Christ.

very characteristic for the spirit of this age.

In Canara a man,

in the presence of our preachers, threw his Ganapati into a river

More hopeful it sounds that a native

physician received our Evangelists in his house and told them

that Pﬁﬂﬂi

that he neither believes in Bhutas nor gods but reads the Bible.

In spite of the opposition of his wife and children he hoped

nsgious '

to become a Christian.

Women, conservative as they are,

occasionally offer a most decided opposition.

“What does it

It has become business, a mere bargain with them. An attentive

A Gaunda with his family has given up the

“Let them be eaten up by the white

Bearing in mind what we observed with reference to the

Jafive i

confe

conservatism of women, one will understand the increasing

oquest ™

prominence which we give to the work of our Bible-women.

Their experience has not been very different from that of the

Evangelists; but space does not allow us this time to enter much

into details. In Mangalore, of course, plague has greatly impaired

ften ¥

our work. Well known and friendly families left the town.

Women had much to ask about the plague.

“Phe God iof

the Christians has sent plague and only He can take it away

from us,” one of them said. Our Bible-women had also to

dissuade them from the superstitious belief that to drink water

from Christian wells would save them. Mrs. HERMELINK writes:

}\md i

“A man named N. N., who had been for 40 years a printer in

the Balmatha Mission Press, died of plague within two or three

days, so also his wife, son and other inmates of the house.

Theyywi]l ask : “Why are you coming so seldom?” In Guledgudd

we have no Bible-women, but Mrs. METZ, accompanied by the

women there.—In Chombala our Bible-women met with a

woman in the garment of a fakir.

They felt shocked, but the

woman told them that she has visited all the holy places of

Besides this direct work of evangelisation some more

In this respect we may say that a fresh

In Southern Mahratta not only the Mission, but the

Government also seems to exhibit a quite extraordinary energy.

Government proceeds with large strides, and if time be not

An ideal school in this respect is

Some that have been popular once may experience a blast of

unpopularity. Our school at Ottapalam (Malabar) had a hot

Here and there in our Report something has been said

about the results of all these evangelising operations.

We

)02

conclude from many indications that the most important and

far-reaching changes do not suddenly appear. Neither in nature

Rs Aﬁ?

nor in the spiritual kingdom do things grow to a head suddenly,

g 0l

but according to the principle laid down by our Lord and

09 6

Master in Mark 4, 28.

There can be no doubt that slowly but

14 143

steadily the Gospel is exerting its leavening influence on the

population of India, and that also in our sphere of work the

G0 00

hearts, opinions and customs of the people are undergoing a

process of moulding and transformation.

Our readers, however,

will expect to hear something about visible and tangible results

in the form of conversions from Hinduism to Christianity.

In the year under report 159 adults and 121 children (280 on

the whole) were admitted by holy baptism from outside. The

ways in which they have been brought under the influence of

the Gospel and the motives by which they allowed themselves

to be guided in embracing Christianity, have been manifold.

are provided with a special congregational

We make it cdmpulsory on our Christian children to attend

trongt

these schools.

Whenever possible we insist on their paying

(g

e st

school-fees (of course not according to the scale of fees laid

down by Government).

In Malabar, perhaps with the exception

dild

of Codacal, Christian parents have begun to understand the

fhe oth

value of education and the majority of them send their children

bt

regularly to school. In Southern Mahratta and at the rural

e By

stations of Canara we experience greater difficulties, as the

sid ace

children from a very early age are sent out to guard the fields

hilife

or to do any other agricultural work. At an out-station in

fhe 3]

Southern Mahratta the parents declared that they could not send

the Sty

their children to schooel as they will become hungry there, and

g

so they send them to the woods, where in gathering firewood

ad

they will find something to eat besides.

When a Mission-

(AP

festival was held at that place, the school-girls in the evening

Highhoy

sat down on a rock and gave the assembly a treat by singing

Thre of

Christian hymns.

The boys had to stand silently apart; they

e Ty

could not sing, being too irregular at school.

The Canara Orphanage for Girls at Mulki was surrounded

“Why do you wish to be baptised?”’ he answered: “Because

We close with a few communications

intended to

T 1€)0

enable the reader to form an idea of the spiritual life of our

ki

sich gy

congregations,

The subject in itself is unfathomable and has

become a very delicate matter.

In the face of so many

fond ¢

misunderstandings and misrepresentations to which an honest

Christy

and candid report is exposed, one may ask himself, whether

ih g )

1l 1y

silence on the subject would not be the greater wisdom.

However, if a report must be written, this crowning part of

i,

the work and of the success of a Mission Society cannot well

0 the |

be omitted. As evangelical Christians we cannot either “ad

TS 0

hl of

magjorem Dei gloriam’ give an untrue picture of our congre-

gations by omitting what is unpleasant and by embellishing

S f

what is praiseworthy.

But identifying ourselves with our

b i

congregations we exceedingly rejoice in everything indicating

Per)p

IPE

an increase of real Christian life amongst us, and if there are

sttt t

shortcomings, we honestly confess them and draw from them

holh Q

lessons for our improvement.

There are readers of our Report

betoe I

in these days for whom it is not Wrifoten, who try to take an’

P

0t

undue advantage of the candour of our publications, who

oy g

malignantly and in a pharisaic spirit feast upon the short-

T olag

comings of our congregations and who seem to dream that

é'fat\utou

because noquy exposes their shortcomings they are pure. If

0p¢ th,

they are permitted to read the Bible, we should like to call

Even in

fond of singing and have founded a choir there.— Of a

an honet

Christian at some other station who had to settle a dispute

Such an example is worth a hundred eloquent sermons

work for the evangelisation of the people round about.

A

ith

Hindu woman gave a lamp for the little church and contributed

lr ey

every Sunday towards the church-collection there, and a

daughter living at another village imitates her mother in this

respect.

Last year also some conversions amongst Hindus took

tle Bag

place at Shagoti.—On some Christians connected with the

-1

Guledgudd station the burden of poverty weighs so heavily

015

that one can scarcely expect a joyful Christian belief amongst

the gl

them. But it is wonderful that with others times of tribulation

are ripening fruits, which nobody would have expected before.

Our Christians took council together and made up their mind

In last year’s Report we had very much to complain about

the sectarian spirit and the fanatical outbursts of pseudo-

religion proceeding from Cannanore and troubling us more

Some poor misled people are

The

must suffice.

The Missionaries at Chombala express themselves

greatly pleased with the spiritual condition of the two out-

stations, Mahé and Badagara.

The Mahé-Christians of our

“The Sunday School of

100—110 children (including 15 Hindu children) in groups of

the girls by 4 young women.

The teachers meet once a week

There is a repeti-

Our Mission station at Kaity came into contact with the

e

860 Boer-prisoners and their guardians.

It was a novel sight

to our people in many respects.

The high morality and sincere

piety of the Boers made a lasting impression upon our people

In this respect the army of the Boers may serve as

a pattern to every Christian army all over the world. On the

to sacrifice a buffalo every year, the Boers met and sent up

They also used to sing hymns to-

themsel""

7 graves of Boers in our cemetery at Kaity will be for many

days to come a token that a little episode of the world’s

history has taken place at this hill-station of the Basel Mission.

In spite of all this distraction by Boers and other soldiers our

Christians at Kaity did not lose

sight of their duty as

Christians.

The Young Men’s Association continued to preach

the Gospel on Sunday evenings in the Badaga villages surround-

Prin

ing Kaity. Also the students of the Training School went out

on Sundays and conducted a Sunday School for Badaga children

in the shadow of some tree or on the veranda of a Badaga

Satyadi

house.
