Description
Excerpt from Tohoku: The Scotland of Japan
The authors of this little book are members of the Japan Mission of the Reformed Church in the United States, which is usually called by the Japanese The To hoku Mission.
These missionaries, engaged in a work that taxes their energies to the utmost, hitherto have not been able to attend to publicity. No one has had the leisure to learn all that is happening on the field or to describe the situa tion so as to make it intelligible to Americans. By request, material has now been gathered and entrusted to a member on furlough in America, with the understanding that he edit it with a free hand.
The work of this Mission began in 1879 in Tokyo and in the rural district immediately to the north of that city. Since 188 5 Providence has led the workers to concentrate their resources on North Japan.
