at Sierra Leone (1823-5), for out of eleven missionaries and their wives who landed in 1823, six died in that year, and three more within eighteen months afterwards. By the beginning of 1826, twenty-two years after the first party sailed for West Africa, only fourteen (mission- aries, schoolmasters, and wives) remained out of seventy-nine who had been sent out. It was, there- fore, at once a courageous and a wise step to found the Fourah Bay College at Sierra Leone during the very next year (18...27). This College has now had the honour of being affiliated to Durham University for twenty years. The same year the noble Basle Mission entered Liberia, and later on the Gold Coast, only to suffer as terrible mortality among its workers ao overy other mission. During the first fifty years of their work, out of 127 missionaries, thirty-nine died after an average of two years' service, and fifty returned home invahded ! In 1832 both the American Presbyterians and the American Methodists arrived in Liberia.
