Fix this text, Eduction of Dr. Ewen MacKenzie to the
Fix this textc arge of the mission stations of Malo and
Fix this text* oS'ugu, New Hebrides, took place under the dir-
Fix this textpd° n of the Sydney Presbytery, at Scots’
Fix this text-hurch, on Thursday, October Ist.
Fix this textThe Moderator of the Presbytery, Rev. A.
Fix this textleming presided and conducted the service, Rev.
Fix this text• J- H. McGowan (Foreign Missions Con-
Fix this textr»ener/, narrated the steps that led to Dr. Mac-
Fix this textkenzie s appointment, and after the usual ques-
Fix this text’°ns Dr. MacKenzie was inducted with the
Fix this textdand of fellowship of members of the
Fix this textdresbytery.
Fix this textRev. C. E. James then gave the address. He
Fix this textreferred to the unique fact that all the members
Fix this textof the New Hebrides Synod, who, at their meet-
Fix this texting in 1924 attested their pleasure in having Dr.
Fix this textMacKenzie among them again, were also present
Fix this textat Synod 12 years ago. This denotes a degree
Fix this textof permanence in the work in the New Hebrides,
Fix this textrarely found now in any field, at home or abroad.’
Fix this textHe spoke of the veteran Father of the Mission,
Fix this textRev. Peter Milne, whose epitaph, after more than
Fix this text50 years of service, included the words:—‘‘He
Fix this textbrought thousands to Christ”—and compared the
Fix this textjoy of such missionary service, toilsome as it
Fix this textmay be or with its own difficulties and dangers,
Fix this textand the frequent disappointments of work in so-
Fix this textcalled Christian lands.
Fix this textDr. MacKenzie then addressed the meeting
Fix this texttelling of his former experiences on Santo, dur-
Fix this texting his fifteen years’ residence there. He knows
Fix this textNogugu well and its people, and his elder daugh-
Fix this textter was born there, while his brother, Rev. Noble
Fix this textMacKenzie was the missionary. Mrs. MacKenzie
Fix this textalso spoke very acceptably and appealed for the
Fix this textinterest of the women, through whom their hus-
Fix this textband and sons will also be interested. She es-
Fix this textpecially appealed to mothers to interest their
Fix this textlittle children in missions.
Fix this textMr. and Mrs. George Stewart, late of Nogugu,
Fix this textwere also present, and a fair attendance of inter-
Fix this textested friends.
Fix this textAn appeal was made for a typewriter for Dr.
Fix this textMacKenzie, also gifts for the Christmas boxes.
Fix this textDr. MacKenzie leaves for his field of labour
Fix this textnext month.
