LONDON JEWS' SOCIETY. GOOD WORK IN PERSIA. Mr. Mirza Norollah, the head of the important mission of the Society in Tehran, has now arrived in England. On their way home Mr. and Mrs. Norollah had a providential escape. If they had delayed a day longer on their journey they would have travelled in a train which was held up by robbers, many of the unfortunate passengers being killed and others wounded. The return of Mr. Norollah reminds the missionary student of one of the most romantic chapters in the history of < modern missions-that which deals with the work of the London JewG" Society amongst Jews of Persia. During his travels in that country in the early part of last century, the Hebrew Christian Missionary, Dr. H. A. Stern, left behind a number of copies of the Gospels. Through reading these for themselves, forty Jews and fifteen Jewesses professed themselves Christians, same receiving baptism at the hands of American mis- sionaries then in the country. This little band of Christians made an earnest appeal to the committee of the Society to send out a missionary to give them further instruction and to continue evangelistic work, and in answer to this touching appeal, the Rev. Jacob Lotka bega,n, a remarkable ministry in Persia in 1881. Since then the mission has been strengthened in many departments. Mr. Norolla.h, amongst his other duties, is in charge of an excellent educational work in the city of Tehran. The Society's school is situated in a commodious build- ing, and at present over three hundred Jewish boys and girls are receiving Chris- tian instruction. The secular education is of a high standard, and has received approval of the Persian Minister of Education. Captain Crawford, a friend of the Society, whilst on duty in Tehran, wrote this of the schools Whilst on duty in Tehran I visited the schools, and as the parish I came from takes a great interest in the work of the London Jews' Society, I thought it would be a, good plan to see the work myself first-hand, so that on my return home I could tell them from personal experienoe what was being done. I am glad to say I shall have nothing but unstinted praise with which to ex- press the result of my visit. The three things which struck me were—the keen- ness of the staff, the intelligence of the children, and, above all, their obvious happiness.
