Journal of a Tour in Ceylon and India, Undertaken at the Request of the Baptist Missionary Society, in Company with the Rev. J. Leechman, M. a: With Observations and Remarks (Classic Reprint)Excerpt from Journal of a Tour in Ceylon and India, Undertaken at the Request of the Baptist Missionary Society, in Company With the Rev. J. Leechman, M. A: With Observations and Remarks To report the present aspect of this interesting field was one of the important objects contemplated by the appointment of our respected brethren, the Reverends J. Russell and J. Leechman, as a deputation from the committee of the Baptist Missionary Society to visit the Society's stations in the East. The charge committed to them has most satisfactorily been fulfilled; and we cannot doubt that the details of their journey, presented in the following pages by Mr. Russell, will be found to interest the friends of the society, and to convey a general and impressive view of the value of the labours of the brethren, whom Christ has honoured by calling them to toil in this land of idols.
