Description
Excerpt from In Sunny Isles: Chapters Treating Chiefly of the Bahama Islands and Cuba
HE year 1900 will mark the Centenary of the commencement of the wesleyan-methodist Mission in the Bahamas, and arrangements are already in progress for the due celebration of that interesting event. The present time may therefore be regarded as opportune for presenting some account of the introduction and development of the mission in these islands of the western tropics.
During the six years of my residence in the colony my life was quite too busy and knock-about to assist to that elegance of literary style in the prepara tion of this volume which an author might honourably covet to achieve; but an honest attempt to be accurate as to matters of fact has at least been made.
