Book Description
Excerpt from The Church in Madras: Being the History of the Ecclesiastical and Missionary Action of the East India Company in the Presidency of Madras, in the Seventeenth and Eighteenth Centuries This record has been drawn up under certain limitations. It is not intended to be a religious history of the period and the place with which it deals; nor a complete history of missionary effort in the south of India in the 17th and 18th centuries. It is a record of ecclesiastical events as they affected or were affected by the East India Company and its local Government at Fort St. George. The Directors of the Company were men of high standing in the city of London, Christian gentlemen jealous of their honour as merchants of so great a city, and careful of their 'merchantly carriage.' Their actions both at home and abroad accorded with their high character. This record, which consists principally of extracts from their despatches to the Government of Fort St. George and extracts from the letters in reply, is intended to exhibit the Directors and their ecclesiastical actions exactly as they were.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Church in Madras, Vol. 3: Being the History of the Ecclesiastical and Missionary Action of the East India Company in the Presidency of Madras; From 1835 to 1861 In this volume the record of the ecclesiastical and educational policy and action of the Hon. East India Company has been brought up to the time of the transfer of the Government of India from the Company to the Crown. It was intended by the author to stop absolutely at the middle of the year 1858. But as Bishop Dealtry's episcopate lasted three years longer, and as some Church building was then going on, it was decided to carry on the record of building till all that was projected in the Company's time was completed. The author had no further intention originally than that of publishing a small book giving details of when, where, how, by whom and for whom the Churches in the Madras Presidency were built in the nineteenth century. But on his retirement from the Service he paid a visit to the India Office to see what records were preserved there. Sir William Lee Warner, G.C.S.I., who was then a member of the Indian Council, and with whom the author had been associated some years before at Bangalore, encouraged a more extended search than was contemplated. The courteous officials of the Record Department made this easy; and so much was found that was highly creditable to the East India Company that the author determined to search the ecclesiastical records systematically from the beginning. The result was published in Volume I, which took the story up to the period at which it was originally intended to begin.
