There is in this country a great, unworked
field. The colored race, numbering thousands upon thousands,
appeals to the consideration and sympathy of every true, practical
believer in Christ. These people do not live in a foreign country,
and they do not bow down to idols of wood and stone. They live
among us, and again and again, through the testimonies of His
Spirit, God has called our attention to them, telling us that
here are human beings neglected. This broad field lies before
us unworked, calling for the light that God has given us in trust.
