A HEAD-HUNTER HUNTED 193 
“The mission boat had just gone; so the doctor was away. 
We tried in vain to get the bullet out. The poor man was 
in dreadful pain, and we did not expect the ship back for three 
weeks. Some of the big boys went to his house every day 
to pray with him, and to ask God to send the ship back quick. 
They were all sure the Lord would answer prayer. 
“And sure enough, one morning as we came out of church 
after the daily service, there was the ship off the point. 
Something had gone wrong with the engine, and they had 
to return. It did not take the doctor long to put Irofuful 
to sleep, as the natives call giving chloroform, and out came 
the bullet; but it was months before his arm really healed. 
“In the meantime he accepted the Lord as his Saviour. 
There was great rejoicing that day. 
“Tt is now three years since he was baptized, and Amram 
(that is his new name) is the greatest comfort here. He is 
the children’s overseer, and is loved and respected by them 
all. After he came to the Lord, he gave his wife and chil- 
dren no peace till they came, too, and now I do not know 
a happier couple in the islands.”
