...Indians than in converting them, but when peace was restored they began to feel pangs of Protestant responsibility brought on by the recent abdication of the Londoners. A group of Bostonians in 1787 established the present foundation to take up the work dropped by the London Society. A typical contributor to the new Society for Propagating the Gospel was one Colonel Alford, who, according to the executor of his will, "was desireous the Aborigines should be both civilized and christianized; that the Gospel should be sent into the dark, benighted parts of the land...

Call Ernie, (212) 265-3599. 9 a.m. to 11 p.m." The first time the writer called, all that she could hear was a child squalling loudly in the background and a harassed male voice that shouted, "Could you call me back in a few minutes?"
