ABSTRACT

The success which had attended our exploratory mission, determined us to make still more vigorous and concentrated efforts for the spiritual regeneration of the remnant of Israel in Habesh .His Majesty-having kindly granted us full permission to settle wherever we felt disposed, we carefully surveyed the field, and, after mature deliberation, fixed on Genda as our centre of operations. A glance at the map will show that this place is geographically the most eligible for a station. Situated about eight miles north of the Tsana, Genda forms, as it were, a focus from whence light may radiate to illumine the benighted provinces of Tschelga, Armatgioho, Quara, and Dembea .
