The Famous Missionary, DR.. Patton
Tells of His Life Work in
South Sea Isles.

An unusually large audience gathered
in Hanover Presbyterian Church last
eve ling to hear Rev. DIR. John 6 Patton,
the world famed missionary to the New
Hebrides Islands, tell OF his life work
in those South Sea Isles.
Though 81 years Of age, Rev. DR.. John
G. Patton is still missionary, and at the
end OF his tour of America will return to
Australia. and from there go to his post
in the New Hebrides Islands. He 10

which has been handicapped on account
| of lack of funds. -
He said the people of those South Sea
Islss wore no clothing and that when
the missionaries first went to those
countries the natives had no word in
their language for widow. When wo-
mans husband died abe was put to
death. Some women would climb trees
and allow themselves to fall to the
ground and be killed.
DIR. Patton had many thrilling escapes
from death at the hands OF the natives.
On one occasion two men came te tse
mis- ion house and asked for medicine.
They were permitted to enter. Iheir
object was to kill the inmates, who
would then be feastec on by the natives.
Mr.. johnson, another missionary VINO
was with DIR. Patton was struck down.
Clubs were raised over DIR. Patton hlm,
self, but his dogs came to his rescue and
the two natives fled.
DIR. Patton found the bush near the
house filled with armed savages. He
managed to make his escape by running
. four miles to another mission house
=; On one occasion he was surrounded by
i natives with loaded guns. One of the
natives pressed his finger to the trigger
!, of his gun and friendly chief in order
Il to save DR.. Patton stepped in front OF
him and received a moreal wound. On
another occasion the church was set or
8 fire and the mission house in danger @
s being burned. DR.. Patton went out ano
e prevented the mission house from being
s DESTROYED. He was surrounded BY
e natives with guns and clubs. He re-
u membered the words of the Lord, 10
