Excerpt from Life and Light for Heathen Women, Vol. 1: March, 1869 WE offer you here the first number of a little publication, which, if the Lord will, we hope to send out quarterly to bear intelligence to the Christian women of America from our mission ary sisters abroad, and from those for whom they are laboring. We call it Life-and Light for Heathen Women. Does any sister object to this title as too high-sounding, or as implying more than the truth? Let her turn to the articles entitled Tri umph of Grace, Earnestness in professing Christ, and to the story of Anna Maria White and her family, and then tell us if these heathen women did not indeed obtain life and light through the gospel.
