Minor Miracles

It's always nice when something goes right. Take a moment to enjoy it.



In my case I have been doing some research on the career of a missionary 150 years ago in Fiji. Just think about that for a moment...



With a little help from the Fijian High Commission in London and a couple (I'm now not sure if they are in Fiji or Australia) I've located a letter by the man himself, published in an Australian newspaper (and apparently "The Times") 135 years ago. I have the text of the letter. Isn't that amazing!

Here's the letter from Nettleton (the missionary): http://ndpbeta.nla.gov.au/ndp/del/article/1327848 (I'm the anonomous editor)
