Letters on the Nicobar islands, their natural productions, and the manners, customs, and superstitions of the natives / with an account of an attempt made by the Church of the / United Brethren, to convert them to Christianity

by Johann Gottfried Haensel

You will however perceive, that Mr. Haensel expresses an opinion concerning future attempts to preach the gospel to the natives of the Nicobar islands, which is by no means discouraging.

With the sincerest esteem and gratitude for the many proofs you have given of your kind notice of the labours of the Church of the United Brethren among heathen nations,

I remain ever,

Dear Sir,

Your most obliged,

and most faithful friend

and servant,

C. I. Latrobe.

London, May 12, 1812.
