Excerpt from Far North in India: A Survey of the Mission Field and Work of the United Presbyterian Church in the Punjab Two facts present difficulties Which have not been Wholly overcome, and Which leave, there fore, their impress on almost every chapter. On the one hand, the subject treated is not wholly distinct and separable from other sub jects. Although comprising a population as large as that of Pennsylvania, the mission field of the United Presbyterian Church is but a section of the great Province of the Punjab, and this Province is itself only a limited section of the Whole of India. The Punjab has been generally selected as the unit for description under the several headings of Country, People, History, Religions. Some references have been made to matters relating to other sections of the country, or to India as a whole, to assist the reader in keeping the true perspective. Never theless, caution should be used in any general ization, for What may be true of one section, or province, may not apply at all to another. A chapter has also been introduced to relate the missionary work of the United Presbyterian Church to the great missionary movement in all India, of which it is a part.
