“The author reveals, as only an expert could, the life of the Marathi women of Western India. With delicate touch, but realistic effect, she draws back the curtain that conceals the Zenana.... The Missionary with the native Bible-woman is seen on her daily round of love and mercy, in the home, the hospital and the school, winning the weary and despairing women and widows.”—George Smith.
