"The above article is by the Archivist of the Provincial Synod of Rupert's Land, the Rev. Thomas C.B. Boon, B.A., (who is also Secretary of the newly-established Branch of the Canadian Church Historical Society for the above Synod). It throws light on the steady process pursued by Anglican m missionaries in communicating truths of the holy gospel to minds of aboriginal Canadians not only in their own tongue but in their own script. It also exposes the heavy debt these missionaries were under to James Evans of the Wesleyan Methodist Church, who invented a syllabic script formed upon the simplest of lines, enabling the Cree Indians to possess written copies of these truths which they might read with ease." [from the front matter] An important article on the invention and use of Cree Syllabics.
