The Spike: or, Victoria College Review, October 1904
Sept. 10th
Sept. 10th.
The missionary committee supplied the speakers for this meeting. J. A. Ryburn gave a short sketch of India's History, Peoples, and Religions and the method adopted by most Missionary Societies in carrying on their work. He pointed out that while progress was naturally slow, there had been during the past decade an increase of 50% in the number of native Protestant Christians. W. C. Blair also read extracts from" Gesta Christi" on Mohammedism.
Throughout the year a Mission Study Class has held regular meetings at which mission work in India has been discussed. We have been able to get some idea of the history of India, its religions and the characteristics of its people.
