Sidelights on Indian Customs Are
Given in Letter From Reznicseks
Journey Ends Early In Morning on Handcar; Oxcart is Hard Riding
MIM!onai-ies Discover; People Are Dirty and Itagge.1
An interesting letter from Mr,
and Mrs. Joseph Reznicsek, from
the Bbarosa Ghar mission, Bhagal
pur ' Groakhpur District, U. P.,
India, .has been received by Rev.
Ralph D. Bullock, 251 Mission,
pastor j)f the Free Gospel Mission,
The letter gives much Information
upon the country as Is as follows:
"We arrived inCalcutta. India,
without mishap, December 15,
1924 ." This! was earlier than we
had expected so. Sister McCarty,
the missionary whom we looked
for was not there to meet us.
However we finally reached our
destination on the Ganger river,
the last leg of our journey being
made In very primitive fashion -on
a hand car about 3 a. m.
"Many things have happened
since that day. We have been out
preaching, ! sometimes walking
sometimes in the champany or ox
cart and once upon an elephant.
The champany is Just a ( big box
on two wheels without springs and
as it bumps over the roads one
almost becomes sea-sick. The men
walk and keep far ahead of the
champany for the oxen i art eo
SlOW. ." i ;. ; 1 - 1
;Our , numbers are' increasing
and we have opened two new out
stations. Within a radius of 12
miles we have about 400 villages
to visit. If we had a Ford car we
could accomplish so much more.

Repair
Department
. Our shop is equipped with
all new machinery. We use
nothing but the 'Tery. best B
'grade of leather that money
(will buy. -?-:..sf -44"
v Mr. Jacobson In charge of
, this department, is an ex
pert in his line has spent
years in factories and repair .
. shops and ' win ao noioins
but high grade work, f
seal
like
making several villages in a week.
Aa it la now, we cannot begin to
cover the district In a year. Most
of the year, as you know, the
heat is so terrible that we cannot
be outside only In the morning
and evenings.
"A Tillage consists of hundreds
of mud huts, close together as tivv
can be built, with narrow, dusty,
bumpy alleys between. The farm
ers go out to the fields each day
to work. Men, women of low
castes and children: are seen, but
the other women are not allowed
to show their faces outside of
their houses. ' They see4 nothing
but bare mud walls and dirt floors
and a patch .of blue sky above the
little court where they do their
cooking. ' , f
"We are g:ad at ntght to return
to our camp or "our compound,
where We see bright, happy faces
of our Indian Christians. Out
side the people are (ilthy and rag
ged or naked. They stare at us
with sad and sin-hardened faces.
When we smile the women hide
their faces and go away and the
measTare blankly. They do not
understand even a smile, for they
rcely know what love Is. They
e the music, and a crowo of 100
or more quickly gathers when we
begin to play and sing. Every
where we go we see ugly idols or
mounds of dirt where the people
worship. At night we hear them
beating their tom-toms and yelling
in their weird way.
: "But many are coming from
time to time for prayer, for they
have heard how our God heals
the' sick. Were itnot for the
terrible chains of the caste sys
tem many more would turn to
Christ. But if they break their
caste it means a separation for
ever from everyone and often costs
them their very lives. .No matter
how hungry or thirsty they are
they would not take a bite of food
or a drop of water from our hands
lest tbey be defiled.
! "This is a sacred4" spot on the
river where thousands come from
time to time to bathe and wor
ship. Here also is a burning
f ghat." as you know all the dead
in this country are burned and
the ashes thrown in the rivers
which to them are sacred. Several
times a week funerals pass near
our house. The corpse is carried
on a stretcher of bamboos and
several men carry bundles of wood
for the fire. When an old person
dies. . the men who accompany
the corpse to the river beat drums;
ring bells and throw sweets to the
poor people. They rejoice that
the spirit has left the body, many
believing thai it has gone into
some animals body or to some
higher plane. '
"On February 9, there was an
almost total eclipse of the moon.
Thousands came here to bathe,
many of them walking for many
miles and sleeping in front of our
compound. They 'believe the eclipse
signifies that God once borrowed
food from the sweepers or .low
caste people. They give sweets to
this caste as they believe Jthey
must pay God's debt.
; "Poor blinded souls.; We went
out into the crowd that night and
preached several honrs. r?Ot
course you understand we " are
preaching through an interpreter
until we get the language. We are
studying several hours a day on
the Hindu language.) . About 3
a.' m. we were awakened by , one
of our men. When we went to the
door, there on our porch was a
newly born baby girl, wrapped In
a rag, covered with dirt and -crying
hard. We took her in, bathed
her and sent for the watchman of
the village. But the mother of the
child could not be found in s the
big crowd of bathers. So we, are
raising her for God's serviceC'We
now have 63 in our family, includ
ing orphans, widows and preach
ers and their families. If any of
you1 would like to adopt one or
more of these, we would be so
glad to keep them for you. "The
cost is small compared to the cost
of a child in America.' We have
no board back of us, but as means
comes in we are able to reach out,
extending the gospel in this dark
land where the need of Christless
millions faces us daily. Coul we
picture these conditions before the
Christians of America, we know
more would be willing to deny
themselves In order to fulfltUh
last commission of our Lord who
said, "Go ye . into all the world
and preach the gospel to every
creature," and those who could
not go would help to send. ' f
"We would be so glad to near
from any of you, who would take,
time to write us a line from, the
Homeland. We are ; especially
grateful for every one who helped
us to get here."
