Excerpt from Arthur Douglas, Missionary on Lake Nyasa: The Story of His LifeVery nearly a year has passed away since the subject of this memoir met his death on the shores of Lake N yasa at the hands of a Portuguese corporal.Arthur Douglas was out in Africa as a Christian mission ary. The only offence which he committed was that of protecting some native girls from the unruly lust of another white man.It is certainly not straining language, therefore, to say that he died a martyr's death.At the kind request of his brothers and sisters and of the Universities' Mission I undertook this memoir, and its compilation has been a labour of love.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
