Book Description

Excerpt from Report, of the Young Men's Missionary Society, of South-Carolina: Read and Accepted, at the Third Anniversary, May 13, 1822 There is now among them an Indian preacher by the name of Marsh, of the Baptist connexion, from a tribe of Indians formerly residing in Virginia, but now extinct. He is said to bea sensible, humble, and pious man, and a good preacher. His efforts, however, do not appear to have had much effect. Whether it would be prudent for the Board to' do any thing for these Indians must be left to their own decision. But if a missionary should be sent in the neighbourhood, perhaps it would be well to visit these children of nature, and see if none of them can be made children of grace, by the introduction of schools as well as preaching among them.
