Zion Mission at Keta, Gold Coast, West Africa, that year. September 20, 1903, Rev. F. A. Osam-Pinanko or ganized the A. M. E. Zion Mission at Cape Coast, West Africa, in the Gold Coast Colony. Rev. Osam- Pinanko was also authorized by Bishop Small. The late Bi^op J. W. Alstork, superintendent of South America, accompanied by Rev. C. C. Alley- ne, visited the Virgin Islands and South America in June, 1919. The bishop had previously carried on negotiations with Bisihop R. A. Carter of the Colored Methodist Episcopal Church, which resulted in a church of that denomination, organized in the Virgin Islands two years previously, being trans- fen-ed to the A. M. E. Zion deno mination. In South America the late Rev. W. A. Deane, preacher and schoolmaster, organized the Walters A. M. E. Zion church at Hague, Demerara, British Guinea, in 1911, which marked the begin ning of the A. M. E. Zion church in that country. It was in the Walters church that Bishop Als tork organized' the South America Annual Conference July 11, 1919. The A. M. E. Zion Mission work started in Nigeria, West Africa, at Aba, 1930, by Dr. J. D. Taylor, through appointment of Bishop W. W. Matthews. iThe oldest and most outstand ing school is at Keta, in the Gold Coast. The Annie W. Blackwell school at Mt. Coffee, in Liberia, with a splendid granite stone ad- ministratio.n building and five smaller buildings was erected 1928-1932 while Bishop Matthews, with Mrs. Mattihews and daughter Juanita, was resident superintend ent in Liberia, -and Rev. and Mrs. Daniel C. Pope were missionaries. It serves a crying need in that sec tion of the Republic. Rev. S. Dome Lartey directs the work of the school at this writing.

C. school in Liberia, the Eliza Ann Gardner school, in -the Gold Coast, and a British government approv ed high school in Georgetown, South America, have been built since 1928; and chiefly from For eign Mission funds. A consider able fund has been raised for a girls’ school in the Gold Coast. The idea for such a school was conceived and Eie movement launched by the late lamented Mrs. A. Lucille Alleyne, who was with her husband. Bishop C. C. Alleyne, as resident bishop in the Gold Coast 1924-1928. The movement in this country is known as “The African Girls’ School Legion.’’ Rev. P. D. Ofosuhene, presiding elder and sdhool leader in Nigeria, West Africa, since 1932, has or ganized several schools; and Bishop E. B. Watson has approved and aided in the work on an ex tended scho-ol and church build ing program in that field. Bishop E. B. Watson, who was elected and assigned to the super- intendency of the African Confer ence in 1944, with Mrs. Watson, has been ,i,n Africa since Decem ber, 1945. At this writing he has -held several confere-nces. and sur veyed every part of the work, and has laid out an extensive and fa,r- reaching expansion program and calls upon .the denomination’s mis sionary set-up to give unprece dented material aid for the work. Bishop J. W. Brown, with his w.ife, Mrs. Andrades Brown, suc ceeded Bishop Matthews as super intendent of the foreign field in 1936. Bishop and Mrs. Brown re sided at Cape Coast, and did much to organize at new points and give business-like direction to all pihas- es of the work. His career ended in death February, 1942, in the midst of hii.s epoch-making leader ship. A, commission, headed by Dr. H. T. Medford, missionary-secretary, Mrs. Creola B. Cowan, and Mr-s. Abbey Clement Jackson visited and inspected the work in the Virgin Islands in September, 1941, where Rev. James Agaard is in charge. As a result of the commission’.s recommendations, a new property has been bought, whioh means the expansion of the church into the thriving town of Christianstad, in St. Croix Island. The building program awaits lifting of priorities on building material there. Bishop C. C. Alleyne is superintendent of , the South American and Carribean fields by assignment of the' 1944 general confei'ence. THE BALLENGER-JACKSON CO. Cliffside, N. C.
