Tounghoo Women by Ellen B. Mason

That sainted Father, Bishop Wilson, whose heart was as large as the world, made some striking remarks one morning while I was breakfasting with him, about as follows: "I used to think we must keep to the old ways, but I have come to the conclusion that Christians ought to work together in everything just as far as they can, and in sympathies and labors for the heathen it is our _privilege_ to be united." And he acted in accordance with his high-minded sentiments, for he immediately handed me a check for a hundred rupees to my contemplated school. If the ladies would take up this subject, I know Mr. Mason and Mr. Cross would be delighted to keep them informed of the progress of their sappers and miners among the powers of darkness.

It will not be asked in Heaven whether the Tounghoo women were saved by Episcopalians or Congregationalists, Dutch Reformed, Presbyterians, Methodists or Baptists, but all may be sure, if they've any stars there, they'll be set up in their crowns of glory. Friends in India, don't ask this question, for the work of evangelizing Tounghoo has been supported almost entirely by Christian Officers and Civilians who were no Baptists at all.
