Missionary Enterprise, 
was built for her, and day by day her rooms were crowded 
by sick women and children, who came for medical help. 
Her sojourn at Livingstonia was not a long one, but still, 
during that short period, healing for both soul and body 
was supplied by the labours of this devoted lady missionary. 
It is certain that others will follow in her footsteps, and, 
kaving home and country, forsake all to lead their degraded 
sisters to Jesus. Womanly ministry is very successful in 
Central Africa. 
A sister Scotch mission, called the Blantyre mission, and 
supported by the Church of Scotland, is situated in the 
Shire district, some seventy miles from the river Shire, and 
works in harmony with that at Livingstonia. The name 
of the station was so called after Blantyre, Livingstone's 
birthplace. The mission was of an industrial and evan- 
gelical nature, and intended to be, after its first settlement, 
self-supporting. Situated in the midst of the great slave- 
hunting district of Nyassa, it was intended also to act as 
a check upon the vile traffic. This mission has, to a large 
extent, succeeded, although some complications have oc- 
curred, owing to certain of its agents assuming civil juris- 
diction over the natives. Roads have been made, houses 
built, trades taught, agriculture stimulated, a settlement 
founded, schools opened, regular and distinct religious 
instruction given, and converts gained. Slaves have been 
redeemed, and rescued from their cruel fate ; while children, 
whose future seemed dark and fearful, have been gathered 
into the schools, and trained for future usefulness. A 
printing-press is busily at work in the settlement, from which 
are issued sheets and books fitted to instruct and raise the 
population. A schoolmistress has been appointed to labour 
with the girls and women, while each returning Sabbath 
sees larger congregations hastening to hear the Word of
