Excerpt from The Juvenile Instructor, Vol. 22: Designed Expressly for the Education and Elevation of the Young, December 1, 1887The beginning of this century saw the English people gradu ally making subjects of the natives, and it was not long before the lesser states consented to annexation to England, and now the Empress of India, or Queen Victoria, holds undisputed sway over more than two hundred and sixty millions of people in that remote country.The Indian climate is mild but is liable to very sudden changes. Hurricanes are not uncommon, and because of the density of the population they are very destructive in their effects. The track of a cyclone can often be traced by the ruined cities it leaves, and whole communities have been destroyed by the maddened elements.The labor of civilizing some people of India will be very great.' In some respects they are inferior to the Lamanites. Yet, there are doubtless many of the blood of Israel among that nation, and when the gospel has found access to their hearts there is no imperfection of mind or body but what the faithful among them will be able to overcome.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
