Excerpt from The Story of the American Board's Mission in Japan: 1869-1899OF the enthusiastic devotion shown in the 16th century by Xavier, the great Jesuit missionary, and his successors we cannot write. Nor can we do more than refer to their successes, by which hundreds of thousands, or according to the doubtless exaggerated estimates of the Japanese, two millions of converts, were won to' the church. But as bearing upon the work of later years, and so upon the purpose of this sketch, brief reference to the suppressive efforts of the Japanese authorities seems called for.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
