Notes From Elsewhere

1913. In that last year, Fr. Cayzac, now in charge and also Principal Superior of the Spiritans, reports: "Many changes have taken place here. The town of Nairobi has been enormously enlarged, the number of our faithful has risen in proportion. Happily, the religious spirit itself seems to grow stronger. Besides Goans, there are many born in Asia of mixed races. These seem less fervent though strongly at- tached to the Catholic faith. We have also a great many from Europe, Irish and others, of whom some are really good Chris- tians. Since two years the African element has grown consid- erably, though it is composed of people foreign to these parts, coming from other lands, from Uganda and Kavirondo, espe- cially. These latter seem most particularly eager for instruc- tion. There are some who come from morning till night, and among them not the least interesting certainly are the workers who, at the end of the day, before taking rest or food, come demanding an hour's instruction".
