To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
There is a considerable European popula- tion round Blantyre ; there is a municipality, and a weekly newspaper, as well as a Government Gazette ; there are many steamers on the river and lake ; there are six trading or mercantile companies ; there is a good deal of coffee planting, where never before a coffee plant had grown, the annual value of its export being somewhere over ;^6o,ooo ; and where before not a single mission station existed — if we except the Universities Mission, which had bee...n driven down to the valley of the Shire by war — there are now more than a dozen stations of different societies, Scottish, English, German, and Dutch Reformed; and, finally, there is a British Administration in what is now known as the Protectorate of British Central Africa. The earliest factors in this change, unintentional and indirect though their action was, were first, the. Livingstonia Mission ; second, the Blantyre Mission ; and, third, the African Lakes Company. These three agencies, though they did not know it, were day by day, by patient self-denying effort, bringing about a great change, with hardly even a conjecture of its magnitude.
