The New Missioner

From Wikisource
The New Missioner (1907)
by Mrs. Wilson Woodrow, illustrated by F. Walter Taylor
New York: The McClure Company, 1907.

Frances Benson was "The New Missioner's" name, and she was missionary to a small mining town in the Rockies. Here is the story of her labors there, and her love story—one of renunciation, of course. It is an unusual piece of fiction, and more than once really touches the heart. —"Comment on Current Books," in the Outlook, 30 Nov 1907
