Description
Summary:This book contains letters of missionaries Disney and Algernon which detail their experiences within the Anglican mission in Labrador, as well as letters about gifts and offerings to be used by the Mission in Forteau. Interest in the Missions was great within the Anglican community at home in England, leading to the decision to publish these letters separately to give readers insight into the work done by Mission, and to demonstrate the need for donations to continue the work in the future.
