Bishop vogt, C. SSP.. tells, in Gath
olics Missions" an affecting incident
Of two orphan children redeemed from
African slavery by the efforts Of their
uncle for the sum of 80 rupees, or
about SO each. 1t is very difficult for
a native to earn so much money, and,
therefore, the amount represented
great self-sacrifice, economy and toll
on the part of this generous relative.
The Bishop continues the story as
follows:
The elder of the children was in
good health and spirits, but the youn-
ger was thin and sickly. In fact, it
soon became evident that she was not
destined to live long. I took special
care to instruct her for baptism, and
Dannas, one of our catechists, replac.
ed me in giving the lesson when hap
pened to be absent from the mission
station. The child was gentle little
creature, and, although so young, was
quite resigned to leave this world
When found her sufficiently prepared
l baptized her, bestowing on her the
name of Alberta. A short time after.
wards she passed away.
There are still many slaves in our
mission districts of Bayamoyo, Honga
Mandero and Mhonda. Sometimes
12-CATH. BULLETIN Us
these slaves have been so surrounded
by evil influences that we can not help
them. Our work against slavery is
chiefly carried on by the redemption
Of children and old people. 1t is a
work that we commend to the charity
of the friends of the missions"

ARE THERE STILL SLAVES in
AFRICA.

Are there still slaves in Africa?
- mo" reply many travellers who
have journeyed far into the interior
of the Dark Continent, "over Africa
floats the banner of civilization and
freedom. There may be, it is true, a
few slaves in Abyssinia and Morocco,
but these instances are exceptions to
the general rule"
other visitors to this still mysteri-
Gus land say, more cautiously, I'VE
saw no slaves in Africa"
Nevertheless, slavery continues to
exist there / do not, indeed, assert
that it fourishes in all the African
colonies, but / know it is to be found
in the colony where have labored as
a missionary for IL years, and where
I continue to toll, namely, in German
East Africa"
In this colony there is not, it is true
a public slave market. One does moi
see man. woman or child in chains
and maltreated at will by cruel mas
ter. The latter no longer has the right
of life and death over, his slave. He
must treat his chattel with some Sigh
degree of consideration. This require
ment is assuredly a step toward thu
emancipation of the poor creature:
held in bondage. Moreover, the chill
dren of slaves are regarded as free
Slavery is, nevertheless, still legal
at least In this part of Africa.
