Excerpt from William McCutchan Morrison, Twenty Years in Central Africa

This book has been prepared at the joint request of the American Presbyterian Congo Mission (a. P. C. M.) and of the Executive Committee of Foreign Missions of the Presbyterian Church in the United States. Its purpose is to make the world, and especially our own church, better acquainted with the character and the work of Dr. Mor rison. No attempt has been made to eulogiae the man, but rather to give a simple account of what he did. We have felt that an honest and unadorned statement of the truth regarding him would be a higher encomium than any ideal picture that could be drawn.

The writer has had access to Dr. Morrison's personal papers and to the documents on file in the offices of the Mis sion at Luebo and of the Executive Committee in Nashville. It was also his high privilege to be intimately associated with Dr. Morrison's work for six years.
