Life and work in India; an account of the conditions, methods, difficulties, results, future prospects and reflex influence of missionary labor in India, especially in the Punjab mission of the United Presbyterian Church of North America . ork in the Punjabhas been a failure, or that it does not display points of great excel-lence. Ecclesiastical maturity, although a highly important matterand the great end of all our labor, is, as we have already seen, onlyone of three great branches of mission work, and in the other two wehave met with abundant success.
