"To those who have heard, from the lips of the Rev James M'Gregor Bertram, of St Helena, the particulars of his missionary experience at Table and Saldanha Bays, in the South of Africa, and on the Island of St Helena, no apology need be offered for the publication of this memoir. It has been written, in compliance with frequent and pressing solicitations on the part of his many hearers, who regard his statements as worth of more than the fleeting publicity of a pulpit address, and who desire some lasting memorial of a visit, which they will ever remember with pleasure." - Preface. ; Ex-Library; xiv, (1), 220, 11 ad pages.
